We Do Not Beg, But Demand Justice

Mr.. Editor Under the heading The
Police Justice Law Unnecessary" appeared
an article in your issue Of June 8, signed
by John C. Bentley, Sandy Spring.
If it is not asking too much, would be
glad to be given space enough in your col
umns to add my hearty endorsement and
appreciation of Mr.. Bentleys significant
letter.
am situated in part of the county
close to the border lines Of Howard and
Prince Georges counties. and it is fact
that, under such provision as the law pre-
scribes for our police protection, justice is
not available without mourning expense and
Inconvenience that cannot be tolerated.
Consequently, the vicious are allowed in
most cases to so unpublished because Of
the impractical working of the law.
The Jurisdiction of our Justices Of the
Peace should be so extended as that any
one Of them may constitute a police court
and dispose finally Of scores Of cases that
clog our circuit court and grand juries, and
often result in the gross miscarriage Of
justice Qf not law) at an enormous ex-
pense and shameful disgust of the tax

pupils living in Rockville, among whom
am proud to count myself one, wish to
convey to you in some visible form a token
of their love. respect and admiration for
you as man. gentleman. scholar and

The roses that strew our pathway with
happiness in youth may fade. but the ivy

crowns heroic effort and attainment live on

pleasant memories Of this occasion and Of
the feelings that mark its brief passing

men we offer you the tribute Of our affec-

that you may continue for twenty years
LONGER to teach and influence for good the
youth of this community"
Prolonged applause greeted Mr.. Mason.

The entertainment given by the public
school at Mar;insbur9, conducted by Miss
Ida Marie Hickman, was in every way O
big success, rejecting much credit OH the
teacher and pupils alike.
A very interesting program had been
prepared and II was followed with military
precision. each part being well supported
thus pleasing and entertaining the large
crowd present, as manifested in frequent
outbursts Of applause. While every part OF
the program was well received and worthy
Of special mention, yet the recitation given
by Miss Bette Fields and the valedictorS
by Miss Mary Shoemaker were so well rem.
dered as to deserve special complimentary
mention. In fact, the children all acquitted
themselves in manner that delighted
patrons and friends.
The program was lnterspersed with voca
and instrumental music. Especially the Stal
Spangled Banner and Maryland, My Mary
land were so charming as to fill the souls
Of all present with melody.
Refreshments, such as ice-cream. lem
onade and cake, were served to all.

With love note pinned on her breast
and bulldog revolver in her hand, pretty.
blue-eyed l6-year-Old Roberta Bartroff, Of
10 Bryn Mawr avenue. Glen Echo. tried to
shoot bullet into her heart Tuesday with
the firm determination to send herself into
eternity.
She failed. The steel pellet missed her
heart by fraction Of an inch. and passed
through her body Though she prays with
all the bitterness Of unrequited love that
she may die she will live, unless there is
a secondary hemOrrhage. or blood poison
ing sets in. She lies on a cot in George
town Hospital, bemoaning the fact that the
solace of death was denied her.
The note she left for her mother Mrs.
Elizabeth BartrOff. reads as follows;
"As | am no use at home. will visit the

ROBERTA"
The man she loved Is Howard Higbee, a
Glen Echo trolley conductor, 20 years old
SINGING at the top of her voice, Roberta
ran gaily into the woods near her home
Tuesday morning about II O'Clock. She
wore an immaculate white dress, and con-
cealed within the folds Of the waist was
shining silver-handled revolver. Fastened
with baby blue ribbon was photograph
of Howard" and a note directly over the
heart Then. as the sun beat brightly up
on her, she turned the weapon toward her
heart and fired
With q crimson stain on her white dress,
she turned TO penetrate deeper into the
woods, that she might lie down and die.
Through the branches and the brambles
she fed. not knowing that pursuers were
on the trail soon to Overtake her Her
| 12-sear-old sister Minnie had seen her
clean the revolver. and had followed her
into the woods. When the shot rang out
she rushed to the grocery store Of Mrs. A.
M. Canada and gave the alarm. Then she
ran back TO the woods. With John Aldrich
In the lead, a dozen men and boys follow
ed her.
When they came to the place where
Minnie said her sister had shot herself
there was no trace Of her. Presently a
candy box was found. saturated with blood,
| a newspaper with the tell-tale stains. and
| the revolver. Then the searchers pushed for
ward, and when they reached her. Roberta
opened her eyes and said
me alone"
The girl had worked her way into the
heart Of the woods, disregarding the paths
and keeping from the roads.
Her little sister knelt and prayed and
clasped her hands in prayer. She prayed
TO Heaven that her sister Roberta might
live.
She was taken to the hospital in an auto
mobile at the very highest limit Of speed
Of which the machine was capable. At the
hospital she had to be held while the
clothing was stripped from her body II
was found the bullet had cut through the
photograph. II had penetrated her breast
and just 9razed her heart.

show little gain in activity and
indeed in some lines such as textile
manufacturing, further curtailment
is under discussion.
1t is probably true, however,
that evidences of crop and weather
improvement came too late in the
week to be equally reflected in the
weeks report. Large industrial
centers, particularly of the east,
improvement is not manifest, where
as the quit tone of many lines or
the evidence of further curtailment
of operators point to other causes
than backward weather having been
operative in holding back demand.
Some lines of industry, it is true,
are still active, prominent in these
being building trades, with the
hardware and kindred lines. There
is still evidence, howe yer, that
anticipations as to the spring trade
were keyed too high.
Summed up, trade as we'll as
speculation, seemed to be in a
waiting stage. Pending a clearer
view of the ultimate crop situation,
the disposition is to!.postpone future
commitments.
