HE IALE Or A SUIT, WFtlCf1
LANDED TWO KIDS IN JAIL
To be proud of ones mate, dis
tinctly feminine characteristic, led to
the downfall of a most human pair
of kids today and they've landed in
Jail.
Eva Barker, 16, loved Clarence Col
Inns, also 16. She admits it. She loved
him with an ardor that looked beyond
Clarence attired in an old red sweat
er and saw in it's place the Beau
Ideal of her dreams. But the other
girls would tease her about her low

pride asserted itself and she deter
mined to have him dressed better.
So she stole a suit of clothes from
Robert Eloff, 1858 w. Madison street.
1t cost $50 And it looked just like
the kind that adOrn magazine heroes.
But, alas and alack! The suit didn't
fit, her lover being about three inches

ticed it, arrested Clarence and the
story came out.

Is IT RIGHT TO ADVERTISE COCA
COLA2

Men who play the willy game of poll
tics have discovered that the best way
to distract the attention OF the public
from their own shortcomings is TO
make a loud-mouthed sensational at.
tack upon someone else. AS the cut,
fetish eludes its pursuer by cloudins
the surrounding water with the con-
tents of its ink sac. so the political ad-
Venturer takes advantage of the igno-
rance and prejudiCes OF the people to
escape from his indefensible position
by muddying the waters of public
opinion.
case in point is the recent attack
made upon the religious press for
carrying Coca-Cola advertising. This
attack was made by politician who
was supposed TO be an expert in chem
istry but who, having brought suit
against the Coca-Cola Company, was
Inundated by having to acknowledge
that he could not qualify as an expert.
The court decided in favor of the Coca
Cola Company as it was clearly shown
that the only essential difference oe-
tween COca-Cola and coffee or tea is
that the former contains only about
half as much caffeine as the latter and
that the flavor is different.
The question as 10 whether it is right
TO advertise Coca-Cola seems to resolve
itself therefore into the question as to
whether it is right to advertise coffee,
tea, chocolate. cocoa and other bever-
ages of the caffeine group-Ady.
