"Those are scarfs."

Even as he spoke his eye fell on a
sign: Bargain sale of neckwear."
II don't believe she would care for

He saw box Of cravats marked "25

Without indicating the least sur

intended for an old man. / have re-
ceived easy-chairs, slippers, mufflers,
smoking Jackets, and the like. When
received the pair of skates from you
felt that twenty years had been lifted
from my shoulders. How in the world
did you ever happen to think Of them :?
Did you really believe that my skating
days were not over? Well, they're not.
I went to the pond in the park on
Christmas day and worked at it for
two hours and / had lot of fun. Ny
ankles were rather weak and l fell
down twice, but without hurting my
self, managed to go through the mo-
tons, and before left l skated with

Thank you many times, and believe

Belief that Thomas Major, arrested in

church officials on the charge of vio.
lating the Mann act, cannot be prose-
cuted because tho government lacks a
case, was expressed yesterday by local
federal officials, following receipt of

lie Hawthorne, the girl In the case,
had been living at two different ad-
dresses in Los Angeles.
The young woman was employed in
Salt Lake as domestic In the homo of
Bishop Walter j. Beatle before she left
Salt Lake. The complaint filed against
Major alleges that he transported Miss
Hawthorne to Los Angeles For immoral
purposes. He was arrested mt the re-
quest Of Joseph Il. Robinson, president
of the California Mormon mission. 1t
is probable that the trial will take
place in Los Angeles,
