IDEAL TOWN
HO JAIL
MO CHURCHES
_L_
, IH^venport, la.,—There are two
institutions that Walcott, Iowa, the
richest town per capita in Iowa,
pride* itself in /not pots easing.
These are churches and jails.
In its religious beliefs. Walcott is
unique. For more than 50 years the
town has been without a church. It
once had a jail, but like its only
church established 65 years ago and
which existed but a few years.-it was
put in the discard. While the jail
building still stands, there is no ves
tige of a church edifice. But there
are no locks to the jail and its
hinges have rotted off. It is never
"We are free thinkers and believe
in free American citizenship seven
day*! a week. We do -not need
preachers to dictate to use We
are better off without them.” states
Mayor Strohbeen in expressing Wal
cott’s lack of churches.
Mayor Strohbeen states that while
any denomination has the privilege
ot establishing a church in Walcott,
the people simply will not patronize
them, they would have empty pews
and empty collection baskets every
Sunday.
We are getting along very well
as we are—much better than with
churches. We like to be let alone.
There is no more peaceful or law
abiding town In the whole United
States than Walcott. Why should
we want churches. They bring
strife and dissensions—we want
peace and quietude.” commented
the»town*s popular mayor.
It’s no secret how Walcott resi
dents spent their Sabbath. "Shows
and dances are our principal Sunday
amustiuent." says Mayor Strohbeen.
“Then in summer we enjoy baseball
and automobile riding.
In case of weddings, most of the
couples come to Davenport and look
up a justice. In very rare instances
a minister of the gospel Is called in.
Most of the funerals in the town
are conducted by Johannes Kroeger.
who delivers the oration in either
German or English, as the mourn
ers desire Mr. Kroeger possesses
no church affiliations or religious
beliefs. In other words he is a
pastor without a creed. Baptisms
are unknown in the town.
In a business and commercial way
Walcott is a thriving town. It
has two banks with combined de
posits of over $1.506.066. This is
a remarkable showing when it is
considered t$iat the population of
the town is but S84. It has a con
solidated school second to none in
this part of the state.
Recently the citizens erected a
fine auditorium. Here ebautau
quas and musical entertainments
are held on week days, and dances*
on Sundays.—Exchange.
Pt’RELY liOCAIi.
(From Fairbanks News-Min 1 )
Of all the jokes—to think that,
folks of their chi violition would
ever bring on 'j* this thins that’s
known as prohibition. Let us arise
and rift the skies with one gosh
awfnl shout and in our might pro
claim our right to know what they
arc about. Our discontent is like
our rent; it soars and knows no
; limit. We plan a stew on smuggl
! ed brew—The liquor agents ‘Jim’ it.
i In days of old when knights were
i bold they ordered ale. produced the
• kale and strong armed henchmen
! drew it. A cache of booze was just
j like shoes—enjoyed a legal status,
j Now thieves break in and steal our
! gin and legally it’s gratis. The
j law's a freak—it make* a sneak of
I almost everyman—has brought the
race a poker face—we drink when’
j er we can. While smuggling grows
| we're in the 'throes of one stupend
ous task—with furtive lookf like
seasoned crooks we must conceal our
flask. Novr midst this woe—we
want to know—while crime is still
ascendant, won’t some great justice
tell to ns—‘*What Means the Fourth
Amendment?”
WATCH IS KBIT TO
STOP NMl’GGLIX<2
Officials of Alaska are confident
that a huge narcotic riug is operat
ing in the territory with under
ground passages reaching front the
Canadian boundary to Nome. Of
( late months the narcotic trade is
apparently increasing and efforts
j are being made by officials of the
First and Third Division to stamp
'out the ring.
From Hyder on the south of Aa
choarge. officials are on the watch
for smugglers of opium and cocaine,
with their kindred drugs.
With a decrease in bootlegging
; operations, smuggling of dope is be
1 cornin’ more frequent, the drugs be
ing easier carried, quicker disposed
! of. and attracting less nttention
than liquor shipments.
It is suspected that the head of
1 the ring is working from Prince
Hepert. with agents scattered at
i n.any poin*s on the c.»ust. The
I large number of foreigners at work
| on the government railway has
made the traffic profitable with de
tection impossible.
With increasing vigilance on the
part of the officers and a checking
np of drugs htidled by llgitimat»
dealers the traffic can be reduced
to l mfnnmom. A number of iw
gwcta are under Bureelllance. and
arrests may be looked for at any
