ACTOR GETS FIVE YEARS
FOR PASSING BAD MONEY

Lee Odell, known as the "hand-cuff
king" pleaded guilty to passing coun-
terfeit SO bills and was sentenced
to five years in the Federal Peniten-
tiary at Leavenworth by United
States District Judge D. P. Dyer to-
day. Odell admitted passing seven
ty-three worthless notes in st. Louis,
Kansas City and Oklahoma City.
Odell was arrested November 27,
after he had passed the counterfeit
bills out in the state and the St. Louis
police and Federal authorities were
warned to watch for him. In his pos
session was a cryptic letter that led
to the arrest of Martin L. Hannah
in Enid, Okla, Dec 4th, as the maker
of the bills.
About $4,000 counterfeit bills and
a full set of dies, ink, silk threads and
bank paper were found in his pos
session. The notes were on the Union
Bank of Chandler, Okla,--St. Louis

The night clothes of little lads and
maids, when made for other seasons
than winter, do not differ much from
those worn by their elders. For little
girls, nainsook and batste and the
light muslins are used for the gowns
and narrow lingerie laces for trim
ming. The trimming is simpler, that
is, not so much lace is used, and the
methods of applying it are less intri-
cate.
With the return of fancy needlework
to fashion in the belongings Of grown
people, 1t is sure to appear on chill
dren's clothes, where it seems more
appropriate than any other sort of
trimming. The small and dainty pat
terms in laces are chosen when laces
are used.
The little empire gown shown in the
picture has a body of narrow lace
and fine embroidery 1t is sleeveless,
with a ruff1e of wider val lace finish

gowns are made for little girls For
