Surrey Residents Would
Close Brooklands Track
WEYBRIDGE, Eng.. Feb. 28.—
Residents of the very select neigh
borhood of Weybridge in Surrey long
ago protested to the authorities re
garding the noise and smell which
they have to endure because of the
proximity of the famous Brooklands
automobile racing track.
These protests so far have fallen
upon deaf ears, but the last has not
been heard of. for the owners of the
St. George’s Estate and ten Wey
bridge and Byfleet residents have
served a writ upon the Brooklands
automobile racing club with a view
to having the track closed on the
grounds that noise of racing consti
tutes a nuisance, destroys the peace
of the rural neighborhood and causes
serious deterioration to property.
For IS years the majority of air
plane and auto experiment tests have
been made at Brooklands, and it is
claimed that an automobile passes
through a stiffer test here within 24
hours than is possible in a full year
on roads. This threat of legal ac
tion has not deterred club officials,
who have arranged full program race
meetings for the ensuing year.
Novel Appeal Planned
To Aid Delinquent Boys
CHICAGO, Feb. 28.—Plans for the
production of “The Passion Play” sev
eral times a year in Chicago, the pro
ceeds from which would be turned
o the juvenile court to aid in its
work of reclaiming boys, who have
drifted into lawlessness, was an
nounced today by Cornelius C. Crane,
superintendent of the Big Brother’s
Society, the sponsor.
The play will be given in five acts
j Chicago Civic Opera company. The
j first performance is announced for
| March 15. Principles in the cast
j have been chosen with a view to con
J tinuing them in their roles year af
I ter year, Mr. Craine said.
“Our workers in the juvenile and
boy’s courts have noticed an increase
in juvenile crime,” Mr. Craine stated.
“The Big Brothers, an association of
| business and professional men here
i who reclaim boy delinquents, decided
to do something to offset the influ
ences. We collected a sum of mon
ey with which to hire the proper
stage producers, actors and writers
who could produce “The Passion
Play” in as reverential a manner as
| possible. We think the play would
| impress and regenerate thousands of
youngsters in the crowds and it would
equip the Big Brothers with a sum
of money for the expansion of their
educative work among delinquent
boys.

Debate What to Do
About Bears in Woods
ST. PAUL, Feb. 28_The mischiev
ous black bear has become so an
noying to settlers, tourists, campers,
villagers, and others in Minnesota’s
vast forest lands that he has been
made the object of proposed legisla
tion.
A bill introduced ni the Minnesota
Legislature would appropriate money
“for the relief of individuals for in
juries suffered to their person and
properties by reason oi attacks by
bears.”
Under »h>- protection of a state
iaw iht* bits, according to game
wardens, have rapidly increased and
these officers liken their number to
Minnesota’s famous 10,000 lakes.
Flour, vegetables, jams, fruit and
other delicacies brought into the
woods for human consumption offer
the greatest temptations to the bear
family, game wardens say. Last sum
mer the wild berry crop was excep
tionally poor in Minnesota and the
hungry bears frequently pried the
screens or doors from frail summer
cabins to help themselves.
GET AT THE CAUSE
The Advice of a Resident of This
Locality Shows A Way
There’s nothing more annoying than
kidney weakness or inability to prop
erly control the kidney secretions.
Night and day alike, the sufferer
is tormented and what with the burn
ing and scalding, the attendant back
ache, headache and dizziness, life is
indeed a burden. Doan’s Pills—a
stimulant diuretic to the kidneys—
have brought peace and comfort to
many Seward people. Profit by this
woman’s experience:
Mrs. R. M. Phillip, S. 4th St., of
I Montesane, Wash., says: “The first
j symptom of kidney disorder in my
j case was lame back. I had such
severe pains in my back that I could
hardly get up when I was down. 1
was subject to spells of dizziness
when everything seemed in a blur. I
tired easily and my rest was broken
at night on account of this pain.
Doan’s Pills relieved the pain in
my kidneys and I felt better in every
way.”

Windows in York Minister
Remind One of Home
HULL, Feb. 28.—There are win
dows in the York Minister of Hull
which have not been washed in more
than 600 years, it wras announced re
cently by the Dean of York in mak
ing an appeal for a local fund for
the preservation of these antiques
which are still in active service.
There is no collection of English
glass in the world approaching the
York Minister collection, said the
dean, and if the public will allow the
windows to disappear their like
would never be seen again.
Some of the window's which have
been in place for six centuries were
being cleaned for the first time, the
dean asserted, and it had been found
that the belief that washing might
destroy the mellowing effect of time
on the glass, was without foundation.
NORWAY'S QUEEN A NOVELIST
OSLO, Feb. 28.—-if Queen Maud of
Norway had had to earn her own
~- =3
livelihood, she would probably have
adopted a literary career. She has
a decided inclination towards writing
and not only finished one novel but
is working steadily on a second.
Queen Maud is said to have told
a friend that if her novel were pub
lished it w'ould be issued under a
pseudonym, and nobody would have
any idea as to the real identity of
the writer.
