PLEADS POVERTY AS EXCUSE
Father Ordered by Court to Support
His Children

The divorce suit of Chantry against
Chantry was again taken into court
yesterday when the defendant in the
former case appeared before Judge
Bordwell, charged with contempt of
court in not paying the money to his
children as ordered by court.
At the divorce trial some months ago,
Mrs. Chantry was given the decree and
the custody of the two children. Yes
terday Chantry pleaded that he was
making only $1.5O day and that he
paid $1.75 for his daily expenses. He
claimed to be absolutely without money
to provide for his children as ordered
by court and alleged that he did not
see that his express business would al
low him to pay anything for some
time to come.
The attorney for the plaintiff was
vigorous in scoring Chantry. "This
man. said the attorney, "is a big. able
bodied man and IL he can't make more
than $1.5O day at working a sick horse
In an express wagon he had better
carry hod."
Judge Bordwell ruled that Chantry be
compelled to pay SIS month for the
support of his children and denied the
request that the. children be kept in
Los Angeles.
