The Ben Williams vase, the second
prize, was won by Alfred G. NeWeH OF
Atlanta, Ga.
Today's meetings will finish the
business sessions of the convention.
Officers will be elected and a place for
next years convention chosen The
retiring president, Charles Jerome Ed
wards, will be POSTMASTER this even
ing at the banquet at the Hotel Vir-
ginia, Long Beach. Formal responses
to toasts will be made by Hon. Frank
G. Tyrell, j. Edward Meyers and Hon.
James d. Phelan.
Interest In today's sessions of the
national association of life underwrit-
ers centers in the choice of president
for the coming year, which will be made
this afternoon. If John w. Whiting
ton of the local association would con-
sent to take up the great amount OF
travelling and other arduous duties IN
yolved he undoubtedly could have the
presidency for the motto of the visit
ing delegates is "Give Los Angeles any,
thing she wants" None Of the Los
Angeles members is willing, however,
to take UP the extra hard work which
would deVolve upon coast executive.
1t Is likely that the convention VIII
insist that both President Chas. Jerome
Edwards of Brooklyn and Secretary
Will A. Waite of Detroit retain their
offices for the coming year. Los Ange-
les may be given vice presidency, in
which case John w. Wilmington, third
vice president of the national organiza-
ton for the past year. would probably
be moved up to first or second position.
The treasurer will not be new man.
unless "Uncle Eli" Weeks of Litch-
field, Conn, insists that his age rem
ders him immune from sixteenth year
in that office.

and willingly on how to acquire fame
by spellbinding an audience with your
feet.
First, the environment at birth should
be looked after carefully. One should
arrange to be born in family of
dancers. The Four Fords were very
successful in finding two competent
persons In their father and mother to
take care of such particulars. The old
folks never attained the fame that the
children have, and in the old days they
never suspected such steps as the
youngsters have invented to charm the
public, but the girls speak with honest
pride of how good the parents were.
OF course, before they were able to
walk the girls could not practice dane
ing, but the Ford sisters spent this
period of their career thinking out
movements for later use. Deborah's
first step was clog from the crib
over to fathers knee. After that they
kept 1t up just as ducks keep up
swimming.
Outside OF the small aid their parents
gave them, the four Fords have truly
never had a lesson in their lives. AS

MABEL AND DEBORAH FORD,
lvh the two girls who appear with
A'-A their brothers in most remark
able dancing act at the Orpheum this
week, upon request brushed aside the
veil of mystery which to most people
hides the acquiring of such an accom-
plishment, and explained how one
should go about becoming profession
al dancer.
The Ford sisters are so strangely
modest about talking of themselves
that 1t might be suspected they are
trying to corner the buck and wing
market, and don't want to let others
in on the secret They have no inter
views already written for free d1stribu-
tion among reporters. Instead of send
ing photographs with loving messages
ahead for the dramatic critic, they
have a desperate search through three
trunks finding likenesses for publica-
ton.
AS an indication of the sort of people
the Ford sisters are, it should be no
ticed that Mabel does not spell 1t
Maybelle! But they talk entertainingly

ATTORNEYS WILL TRY TO
PROVE CLIENT INSANE
Man Accused of Raising Checks and
Defrauding Local Merchants
May Be Shown to Be
Crazy

The preliminary examination of A.
Reinhardt, proprietor of a neckwear
store at Third and Main streets, who
was arrested last week for raising
checks which he is alleged to have
passed on a department store, was
continued by Police Justice Austin
yesterday to September 2 at the re-
quest of the attorneys for the de-
fendant in order that they may have
ample time in which to file a COM
plaint for insanity against their client.
Reinhardt is said to have worked
a hurry-up scheme to secure money.
His method was to make a small pur-
chase at a department store, tender a
check for 81 or So in payment. The
check would be 0 KID by the store
manager and handed to Reinhardt,
who would Immediately raise the
amount to $40 or $50, turn it in to the
cashier and receive the difference in
money. He is said to have worked
this plan for two days before he was
detected. During that time he is al
legged to have cashed thirty-one checks
