4. The world moves. Two girls living in
Chicago. each sixteen, have been in
dulging themselves in . highway rob-
berry. They went through their graceful
little performance in manner histori-
caliy correct. even to threatening the
woman they garroted and robbed with
instant death if she soreamed. Unhap.
PLY, they were soon quenched By arrest
and imprisonment. It is sad that the
aoominable tyranny of men should in
tsrfere with the industrial pursuits of
the women.
