Catches Man With
The Eggs on Him.;
Guess the Sequel

Although M. H. Lee may be con-
sidered bad egg by N. M, Benson,
night cook of the Night and Day
restaurant, 800 South Fifteenth street,
he was more like an omelet when po-
lice arrested him Wednesday evening,
For the last three nights Lee, ac-
cording to Benson, had been calling
at the restaurant and by telling hard
luck story had been supplied with &C.
casional fodder. Somehow the night
cook found that his supply of eggs
seemingly diminished every time Lee
departed. The last straw was when
the restaurant ran out Of eggs Tues
day evening after having had nearly
a case full earlier in the evening. The
cook then made up his mind to watch
his hungry friend.
Wednesday evening Benson made a
hurried trip to a small room in the
rear and saw Lee just departing.
Hey, what are you doing here?" he
queried.
Say, give me something to eat, I'm
hungry, will your"
When the cook came nearer, Lee
started on dead run down the alley
When caught, Lee blurted out. 81
stole the eggs, beat me up, it would
certainly serve me right" He adj
mitted that he had five dozen in his
possession then.
Mashed, eggs oozed out of every
pocket of Lee when the event was
over. He also had two blackened
eyes and a head of hair so matted
with broken hen fruit that police say
he will not have to take shampoo
for years. He was charged with peti,
larceny.

Overland Exhibition
Attracting Big Crowds

The Willys-Overland company,
which is conducting a special cxhi-
bition of Overland and Willys-Knight
all-year models this week, Is demon
strating the possibilities OF that form
of exhibiting cars.
The company was unable to show
all its models in the limited space al
lottcd at the automobile show last
week and adopted this plan to exploit
the all-year cars. The announcement
of the special exhibition brought out
many visitors, interested in seeing this
latest development of the automobile
industry. The cars are the convertible
type, designed for all-year use and
they are offered on all Overland and
Willys-Knight GLASSES.
The Overland show room is open
until 10 o'clock every evening and
has been handsomely decorated for
the occasion.
"The careful automobile buyer can
not fail to See the many advantages
offered by this type of car" said ]. R.
Jamison, branch manager. For a
little more than the price Of the tour
ing car he has all the comforts of a
winter limousine for Indictment
weather and car that is practical for
service under all conditions Of weather
and roads. This type of car is not,
as many people seem to think, a
limousine, but. is really an open tour
ing car which may be converted into
a limousine. Instead of fimsy, ill.,
fitting side curtains, the car is en-
closed with comfort in a permanent
top. 1t lacks nothing that will make
for comfort and con, enience whether
operated as a touring car or as a
limousine. 1t is the ideal combination
in every way" f..
Persistence is the cardinal virtue in
advertising.

JEWISH RABBIS TO

New York, Nov. 2S.-More than coo
rabbis will attend the conference OF
the Jewish Ministers Association OF
America i'll this city December 4 to
consider practical measures for work
in. Palestine, in accordance with the
declaration of the British government
favoring the establishment of a ma
tional Jewish home land. the executive
committee of general Zionist affairs
announced here tonight.
The specific purpose OF the confer
ence, the announcement stated. is to
organize orthodox congregations Of
America to realize the dream of a
Jewish nation. Rabbi Mordecai A.
Kaplan, chairman of the committee of
arrangements, refuted the charges
that the orthodox Jews in America
are indifferent to the present oppor-
tunity to regain Palestine.
Such talk is absurd" he asserted.
"The Jews Hold no such belief,
though there may be this notion
among some of the more ignorant
and superstitious of our people. We
realize that the reorganization of Pal
estine is a matter of practical poll
tics and we realize that unless we
take every possible step to translate
this opportunity into reality a great
hope which has been the dominating
hope of our prayers these last 1900
years is forever gone"
