1t is a far cry from Los Angeles to
that February IA in Rome, 1888 years
ago, when st. Valentine, then blshop
of the early church, suffered martyr
dom under the Emperor Aurelian, but
out of the sainted bishops death grew
the idea that it is on its anniversary
that birds begin to mate, and from
that concept has grown the dainty Gus,
tom still prevailing in the United
states. from which children and even
grown folk find so much joy.
Los Angeles has few homely, timely
valentines to send out to old friends.
They are not embellished with Cuplds
or angels, and must speak for them
selves. They are as follows
DEAR MISS DEMOCRACY:
We have just been aching Tor
chance to tell you how glad we are
that you are appearing in society
again. While other maidens have
been monopolizing attention in al
fairs Of late, they are only fresh
Young things and not in your class
at all, really, as they will reailze

other girs step out in their passe
d1lds and try to star the show they
will feel about as grand as a lemon
drop in bowl of soup.
Please pardon our unadorneu
frankness, but we want you 10
know lust how we feel about 1t.
Increasingly yours,
LOS ANGELES.
DEAR HIGH PRICES:
This is st. Valentines day and
cutie a number of emotions are
surging in our heart. 1t is only
natural. then, that we should think
of some of our wandering loved
ones. Why are you so distant!
Take us again into your confidence
and let us know just what you are
sore about. II there Is anything
that we can do to restore the OLD
relations, we are only too Wiling;
We are right about this thing ana
we want to do our part. we Snoulu
like to have Just one more glimpse
of YOU, if you only will come down

DEAR ODIOUS BILLBOARD:
We have about decided to cut you
off our list. In looking over our
aggregation of loves, past and pres
enf we cannot figure just how
Won crept in on us. We suppose IL
was your money that attracted us
to YOU at first, but we have come to
the conclusion that money does not
count much in these personal mat
ters. So, if you don't mlnd, we
think that we shall call everything
off We have been trying 10 get

hut this is Saint Valentines day
and we feel that we ought to come

hope that this viii end all.
Farewell forever

she made the remark that she paid 80
for two weeks protection.
The woman, seeing the imposing ar
raw of police in gold braid and brass
buttons, was frightened considera bly,
and denied having told any one that
she paid for the privilege of being al
lowed to conduct a house of i'll repute.
This was considered a thorough inves-
tigation by the men detailed to ascer-
tain the facts, and the special investi-
gators wrote out statement to that
effect. When this report was received
by Acting Captain Haupt he suspended
Bowman and Whaling, who assert that
in their endeavor to do their duty they
simply had reported what they were
told by the woman.
Acting Chief Dixon stated that such
matters were no business of the press
or the public. He refused to discuss
the matter and said he had nothing
to say. When pressed for statement
concerning the suspension of the two
officers and the allegation Of grating
among the members of the purity
squad" the acting CHIEF declared the
publicity of such matters injured the
department.
