The license law starts off with many a
click and jar very unlike the well-oiled

dicted it would be. Somebody threw a

nuity of the versatile Langley can't join
the cogs SO that its own friends will
know it. The trouble there seems to be
that only the cheap cusses who applied

charged with intOXication, and each

will take the alternative sentence in Jail
Majester. Burt and Hunt are minors and
the question arose as to where they got
the ir liquor. No disclosures could be
asked for, but the prosecuting attorney
consulted with the boys and the officers
and as a result a warrant was issued
charging Rogers with furnishing Majes-
ter. Rogers was arraigned on the new
charge and pleaded not guilty"
