many times this number.

An interesting contribution to the
argument is that of superintendent
Slaton. of the Atlanta schools. He
says:
1T IS an absurd and offensive as
sumption that you can read a girls
character by her hair or eyes. You
can't even Judge some Atlanta girls by
their compilations. l am sure we have
equally capable blondes and brunettes in
our schools here. It's foolish thing 20
try to establish rules of that kind"
Insists It Is Easy.
Yet. Miss Bezner. herself a brunette
insists that character reading is easy
with girls of dark or light hair-dark or
light eyes.
She is willing to back her judgment
with types. And while she is doing so,
she said to-day she would probably
find that her correspondence has grown
into unruly proportions in her attempt
to draw the comparison-and prove it.

BIGANIST MAKES
UNIQUE DEFENSE
Says First Marriage Voided the
Second and Death of Wife
No. | LOCALIZED Third.

Ira L. Davis. age 80, before Judge
Roam in the criminal court to-day on
a charge of bigamy, admitted having
been married three times, but presented
the unique defense that when he mar
ried the second time his first wife was
living. which made the second marriage
void, and that when he married the
third time his first wife had died,
which would make his last marriage
legal
Davis. who said his home was in
South Carolina, stated that in 1908 he
was married to Fora Bowen and lived
with her in Oconee county, South Caro-
lima, until 1907, when he married Eva
Written, who also lived in South Car
Dina. He added that at the time of
this marriage he knew that his first
wife was living He said he was tried
in South Carolina on a charge of big
amy. but the state failed to make a
case and changed the charge to adul-
terry, which resulted In his conviction
and sentence to the chain gang.
In 1910 while he was living with
Eva Written, he said, he learned of
the death of Fora Bowen, his first wife,
and considering himself free came to
Fulton county, where he married Grace
Bradshaw.
The case was not tried to-day, how
ever After Davis, the defendant, had
been placed on the stand. his attorney,
William Smith, asked that the case
be continued until he could summon
witnesses from South Carolina.
Davis is an employee of the street
railway company

at the Elks Home until the libel ex-
pires and the decision of the court is
announced. The improvsed rum
room will be fastened with new locks
and the keys will be held by the sher-.
