ROBERTS CHILDREN
GIVEN TO FATHER
MOTHERS SACRIFICE RESULTS
I'M DISAPPOINTMENT
Expected Contest over Boy and Girl
Ended When Rev. &. J. Har-
per Returns Them
to Parent

The mysterious disappearance of the
two children of Mrs. Susie A. Roberts
of Nashville, Tenn, last seen in an
automobile leaving the home of Rev.
and Mrs. E. ]. Harper, 322 Wilton
place, with whom the children have
been living for many months. was eX
planned yesterday by statement of
Attorney II. H. Appel that on his
advice Mr.. Harper placed the children
on a train Sunday evening to send
them back to their father in Nashville.
Mrs. Roberts called at the Harper
home Monday afternoon prior to filing
court proceedings regarding the Gus
tody of the children, hoping to see her
babies and talk the situation over
with Rev. and Mrs. Harper, their
guardians. She was told by the maid
that her employers had left with the
children in an automobile, in which
baggage had been placed and that she
knew nothing of their destination or
of the possible time of their return.
Mrs. Roberts secured the neighbor-
hood for information, but learned
nothing further than the maid had
told her.
Attorney Appel advised Mr. Harper
to return the children to their father
in order to escape being a party in the
litigation and to simplify the pro-
ceedings.

CITY ACCEPTS INDEMNITY.
BOND ON TEMPLE BLOCK
Title company's Check Is Returned
and New Certificate of Title SUBJ
mitted to Council

A bond for $3210 was submitted by
the Title Insurance and Trust Co. to
the council yesterday to secure the city
against any possible loss on account of
leases on the Temple block. After re-
ceiving the bond the council permitted
Lee c. Gates, representing the trust
company to withdraw check for the
same amount, which he had deposited
with the council. At the same time the
trust company submitted certificate
of title to the Temple block property
with the Objectionable features of the
former certificate removed.
When the council accepted the Tenn
pie block last week it was with the
provision that the sellers guarantee
the city against loss of damages on ac-
count of some of the leases on the
property. These leases provide that in
the event the lease is terminated the
owner of the building must pay the
lessees certain sums.

We have a right to comment on Price
for two reasons.

an answer to Prices letter; but maybe
not. Anyhow there is an all sufficient
justification and that is the second rea-

Why does Great Britain buy
its oatmeal OF us?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak of export
ing oatmeal TO Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds Of thousands Of cases Of
Quaker Oats to Great Britain and
Europe.
The reason ia simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally Of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods of
manufacture so that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How well he has succeeded would
be seen at a glance at the export re-
ports on Quaker Oats. This brand is
without a rival; is packed in regular
packages, and in Theoretically sealed
tins for hot climates. 81

Patrnness of Music.

The origin Of music Is lost In an.

probably to be traced to the ancient
Egyptian priests, who employed this
art In their religious rites and cere-
monies. From the Egyptians the
Greeks and the Romans derived their
knowledge Of music. The ancient He
brews probably took with them into
Palestine some Of the songs they had
learned in Egypt. The hymns used in
the temple formed the basis of the
melodies of the early Christian church,
