BEN GELS AN IDEA.

TT started about shoes. Deputy City
Attorney Charles Davis dropped
! into Eugene Buffandeau's office
with a new pair of kicks" and kick
about the price he had paid for them
Supervisor Ben Hollinger derricked
his walking delegates from the floor
to the top of the desk and remarked
that it was a fright the way shoes
were going up. Buffandeau followed
with a declaration that it was crime.
And the discussion on shoes slipped
into a talk on the high cost of loving
and living, and that brought it around
to the food question. 1t was at this
point that Supervisor Ben Hollinger
was struck with bright idea.
"I'm going to suggest to the food
commission" he solomenly announced,
that they go on record that hereafter
to conserve the supply Of rice no more
of it be used to shower wedding par
ties and that only old shoes be hurled
after the honeymoon-bound couple,

hip were swollen and the slightest
blow upon them caused extreme pain
and a food of blood.
Because Of this upon his first re-

You've done your bit, Patty, and
We don't need you" Patty knew well
he was needed, and that his hip was
the cause of his rejection.

Harvard wasn't so bad, but Brown

The rough and ready-to-fight quail

slamming one another for all they

Prompt Justice for MurdererS

Governor Pinkham has the solid Endorsement of
the awabiding citizens of the territory in his
prompt action to secure speedy justice for the men
responsible for the foul murders that have become
almost epidemic.
No person in tn" territory is more 10th to sign a
death warrant than the governor, But there comes
time in thcs" Stturnaas of crime when it is obvi-
ously necessary to teach trearherou> and mUrderous
human beings in The only language they can under
stand.
The guilt of the men who face the gallOwS is I'M
questioned. The action Of Justice should be swift
and sure that the lesson will strike home to the
hearts Of the weak and the viriouS.
Let the murderPrs know that they can not at any
