POL ICE JUDGE DENIES
JUSTICE FL0UTED BY HIS
ADVICE TO AUTO DRIVER

Il deny that my advice to Sgt. John
Mckay, u. s. A., yesterday morning
was Irritation with Justice as
claimed by the Advertiser" said Pc
lice Judge ]. NJ. Monsarrat today. "On
the contrary, 1t was an effort on my
part to help the man get justice.
sThe evidence failed to substantiate
the ehafe that he was drunk while
driving, although the man did admit
that he had had a drink or two. Yet
the man pleaded guilty. advised
him then how serious was the charge
of driving in an intoxicated condition,
and as the man insisted that he was
not drunk but had difficulty in max
ing his steering wheel work properly
says it didn't obey his hand-I al
lowed him to withdraw his plea of
guilty and change It to one of not
guilty.
I'm the meantime Prosecutor
Charles F. Chillingworth, at the re-
quest of the police, changed the
charge to one OF needless driving, for
which offense fined the soldier SIS
and costs. Never have I imposed a
fine as low as SIS for driving while
intoxicated. I consider that a very
serious offense."

Want Hens in Enolish Parks.

In the hope Of saving large part
of the $40OO0,000 spent every year for
foreign eggs, an agitation is on foot
to throw open London parks for pOul-
try breeding. The scheme is receiving
serious consideration from the authori-
ties because it is one of the latest war
time economies suggested on a large
scale. The promoters of the idea have
asked for part Of one park to start
with. The plan provides for site
of about three acres and accommoda-
ton for 600 hens. The leading poul-
try breeders of the country will be in
vitetl to send six selected fowls of the
same breed and strain. Scientific feed
ing tests are to be made. All the eggs
will go to the wounded soldiers, and
prizes will be awarded to the owners
of the hens laying the most eggs.

GOOD WORD FOR DANDELION
Americans Could Save Money by Sys-
tematic Cultivation of Yellow
FloWered Plant.

1t is astonishing to most of us to
learn, from an authoritative source,
that our annual supply of dandelion
roots comes chiefly from Germany,
Austria and France. BY the way, who
started the notion that this highly dec
orative yellow-fowered plant should
be banished where the owner makes
preteXt of well-kept lawn?
Well dandelions were made before
lawns, and, luckily, they persist in
tlourishing. The leaves supply us with
early greens" and the roots with
somthing renowned incidentally as
good for the liver" But why should
our truck gardeners stand idly by
while the makers of drugs import tons
of dandeliOn roots every year from
Europe?
For the same reason, very likely,
that American sugar beet growers buy
or did, before the war-their seed
from thrifty and enterprising German
and French farmers. For the same
reason that we have been sending good
money to Europe for many another
necessity that we might have produced
ourselves without waiting for world
war to cut off the supply.
Just what the reason is it might be
hard to say. Probably a part of it is
something we overlook when we boast
of our national characteristics-shee
laziness.-Providence Journal.

cried. "By the way" he added, as an
important detail came into his mind

from the Wilhelmstrasse on a special
mission"
Eyes? Who is hep
"a Captain KARL" Major Won Brenig
said. "You know him"
"No! And 1 must meet him."
"You don't suspect"

careful"
"He dimes with u.s." the major ex.
planned.
"And then we shall look him over
