Husband Returning Finds Wife
Tied in TableclOth and
Diamonds Gone.

Mrs. Florence Gregory, Of 295 East
162d Street. was found lying OF the
floor Of her parlor late last night by
her husband, Charles, a contractor.
Her hands and feet had been tied with
a tablccloth. She had been gagged
and there were bruises on her face
where she had been kicked.
While sitting at her pianola last
evening Mrs. Gregory was startled by
having some one touch her on the
shoulder. She turned about 10 find

to scream, but the burglar, whom She

her mouth and dragged her into the
dining room. where he tore the clotn
from the table. bound and gagged her:
Then he kicked ner in the face and
she tainted.
A few moments later, Patrolman

PROSTATE, struggling with her bonds.
He freed her and sent for the doctor.
Mrs. Gregory then discovered that her
diamond bracelet was missing. Nothing

Are You Progressing

You can no longer derive any benefit
from school or college-even if you
could, you would be unable to devote
the time.
Then why not avail yourself Of that
great school which always holds its
doors open to you-THE CHURCH?
From an educational standpoint you
cannot neglect it. The Bible to-day
serves as a model of good Engish-of
Education. 1t is the foundation Of the
Church; therefore, Education and the
Church are inseparable.
Do not neglect this chance to go to
school-to further your education
to keep on going forward.
Do not close the door on the biggest
opportunity to progress offered you
to-day.
Education, therefore the Church,
tends to your better understanding
with God.
Make use of it. Begin now.

4 S A SUCCESSFUL MAN you
N attribute part Of your success
to education. Whether or not
this education was gained through the
hard school Of experience or from
going through college, or both, makes
no diference-the fact remains.
Therefore, you must realize in dollars

having reached a comfortable social
position, are you willing to stand still,
to cease being progressive, to say to
Yourself Il am satisfied ?
If you do, you will have reached the
