MOTHER
ACCUSED OF THEFTS

Declaring herself the victim of
a strange mania that causes her
to eovet any pretty article that
she sees, Mrs. Rose Hammond, 4
bride of a year, arrested by the
Tacoma police last evening on a
charge of shop-lifting. ascribes
her actions to the fact that she
is soon to become a mother.
ITS an awfully silly thought
said the young woman from her
Jail cell, but 1t is the only rea-
son | can give.
II don't need the things that
| steal. l never had this feeling
before. It's only in the last few
weeks that ! have almost uncon-
sciously stolen things from stores
and other places.
Something seems to say to me
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1915-09-09

take it-take it, whenever | see
some pretty article. and before |
realize what | am about, follow
the impulse"
Mrs. Hammond Is said by the
police to have entered several
stores here yesterday afternoon.
In her rooms in a downtown
apartment house were found a
woman's fine dress, mans suit,
two pairs of women's shoes. n
skirt, mans coat and other arti-
Giles which the police say were
stolen.
George Hammond, the hus-
band, who is an electrician, and
Roy Herald, friend. both of
whom expressed surprise and as
constituent when told of Mrs.
Hammond's obsession, are also
held by the police.

milk Is the vessels into which it is
drawn and stored. If these are not
given special care they will introduce
many germs and they are very likely
to introduce the kind which cause the
souring of milk because these are able
to live in the pals in which milk was
formerly soured. The strainer is also
likely to have many germs in it. Ev-
erything which comes in contact with
milk should first have the bacteria
killed out of them. This may be done
by careful washing and scalding, or
by exposing them to, sunlight for some
time. Sunlight will kill all bacteria
which can cause the souring of milk
in a comparatively short time if they
are subjected directly to it. There
will always be some bacteria in milk,
even with the best of handling, and
1t is necessary to do something to pre-
vent these from increasing in num-
bers. Bacteria grow very fast if the
milk is at the right temperature. This
temperature for the souring bacteria
is about that of an ordinary living
room. If the milk is kept at this tenn
perature the bacteria increase very
fast and sour the milk quickly. If, on
the other hand, it Is kept at temper
ature about 20 degrees cooler than
this, the germs which cause the sour
ing will grow slowly and the milk will
remain sweet long time. 1t is very
important that the milk be cooled
soon after it is MIXED. Tests at the
Experiment Station show that milk
cooled Immediately after milking re-
mains sweet much longer than if al
lowed to cool slowly.

These frames may be made from

three six-feet lengths of this material
together in the form of triangle. two,
of which are then placed together as
shown in the cut. Two other pieces
