Mr.. Fitzgerald closed at 12.45 and
court adjourned till 2.15 p. NJ. when
Attorney General Rice began his fin
al argument.
MIR. F1tzgerald's close was extreme
ly dramatic. bringing tears to many
men and women in the courtroom.
Mrs. Mohr was home in bed with
her children the night of the shoot
ing. Would she have gone to sleep
that evening if she had known her
husband was going to be murdered?
THE police notified her and the
people in the house tell YOU she cried
and expressed sincere grief. Is that
the conduct of a woman who had
planned this thing?
The State cast a shadow on her
marriage. God knows she's had trouble
enough. She has sat here week after
week with her very life at stake--the
question of whether she will be sep
arated from her children.
she was like little bird in the
cage with cat paving around with
it's cruel claws trying to get her. If
she didn't answer quickly the State
brought it against her"
Mrs Mohr shed fresh tears at this
recital.
Rice Begins Argument
Attorney General Rice began his
closing argument at 2.20 T. NJ. Before
the jury came in Mr.. Rice had ar
ranged on Il shelf in front of the jury
box many of the exhibits, including
the doctors blood stained clothes and
personal effects.
The storm has gone" he began.
THE skies have been overcast for
days The thunder has roared and
the lightning has played. but after all
the confusion the mountain peaks Of
truth are still there. The clouds have
been dispersed; the atmosphere is
clearer, and it is now my duty to
point out to you those mountain peaks
Of truth.
Il would that l had not to perform
this duty that l must. But l will
meet it with the fearlessness that is
in me.
"A mans life has been taken and
we are now standing at his bier. Don't
forget that"
Mr.. Rice then began an analysis OF
the defense. His Introductory re-
marks were very impressive.

FINE MUSICAL RECITAL

pupils of Miss Hendrickson, assisted
by the Progress club chorus and Mrs.

people present to enjoy the music.
which was admirable in its selection
and arrangement and in the manner
of its rendition. The program was
sufficiently varied in character to
show to excellent advantage the ae.
complishments and versatility of those
who took part in its presentation and
evoked enthusiastic applause and com
mendation-
In program so pleasing in compo-
sition and so happy in its execution
it would be unfair to bestow individu-
al praise upon its participants and in
this connection it must suffice to say
that all who contributed to the even

their work and inspired hearty ap-
probation. A number OF ladies from
Florence took part in the program.

Canon City audiences by reason OF
their musical attainments.
The recital was given as a benefit

a silver offering was made by its
patrons for the book purchasing fund

the trash so that all that was neces-

throw them on the wagons This saw

Don't Neglect Kidneys

Il is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to a re-
markable degree and do tremendous
amount of work IN removing the poisons
and waste matter from the system by
6ltcring the blood.
The kidneys should receive some as
sistance when needed. We take less ex-
ercse, drink less water and often eat more
rich, heavy food, thereby forcing the kid
neys TO do more work than nature in

as lame back, annoying bladder troubles,
smarting or burning, brickdust or sedi-
ment, sallow complexion, rheumatism,
maybe weak or irregular heart action,
