Good Morning, Judge"
IN Human Interest Stories Of euno,pH gy

RUDOLPH
PERKINS

He CANDLES and he drinks rotten
whiskey.
He comes home drunk and raises
the roof. He treats his poor sick
mother like she was a dog.
The patience of both parents has
been exhausted. For a long. long
time. they have planned to take their
wayward son to court, but they
loved him to much for that.
The breaking point came last Tues
day night when the boy brought two
other drunks home and slapped his
mothers face to show how brave he
was.
He sat in court. a sullen. sodden
younSster, as tough as they come.
No honor at all. no respect for man
or beast-just drunken brute badly
in need of discipline.
The army wouldn't have him-for
IA reason better left unsaid.
And so the court sent him down
the river for three months to see if
little hard work will teach him
some sense.
Two Bad Starts,
Once there was a man who had
never taken a drink of booze in
his life until he got married.
His name was Andy jackson. He
came from Georgia.
Andy was about thirty-five years
old when he took unto himself a
wife. who answered to the name of
Pinky.
He and Pinkey got along together
without a fuss for two whole weeks.
Then they separated for a month.
And during all this time he was
perfectly sober.
When the month was up they set
tied their differences and started
life anew.
Pinkey suggested that they drink
to the success of their coming to-
gether again. Andy agreed.
Half an hour later, when the
booze was getting In its work Andy
begun to get sassy.
For no reason at all he grabbed
Pinkey by the throat and proceed
ed to choke her to death.
The neighbors interfered. Andy
was persuaded to behave for a min
ute or two.
Then he made for Pinkey again
and tore most of her hair out.
She had him locked UP. Never
once did she think that it was her.
self who was really to blame.
And because she was as much
to blame as her hubby. the court
only fined him IS.

Decline War Chest Plan
The Sangamon County Chapter,
headquarters in Springeld, ILL.,. and
the Champaign County Chapter,
headquarters in Champaign, ILL.,, re-
Gently had a war chest plan under
consideration but declined to adopt
it. Among number of other Illinois
chapters to take the same attitude is
Mclean County Chapter, headquar-
tiers at Bloomington, and the move
ment toward war chests in Illinois
seems definitely halted.
Several chapters now raising funds
by the war chest, or patriotic fund
method, are considerably behind in
their collections. A number have
enough money pledged but will not
receive it until too late to subscribe
the quotas this week for the Second
War Fund. One Red Cross official
in commenting upon this situation
pointed out that Hindenburg is not
delaying his attacts upon American
soldiers. and Red Cross chapters
which are unable to meet their pres
ent obligations on account of the war
chest plan as developed by the Sec
their people for the delay.
The main objection to the war
chestt plan as developed by the sec
ond War Fund campaign is the apa-
thy in some chapters. They lose the
great stimulation of a campaign such
as National Headquarters mapped out
and which is producing fine effects
in other chapters. Even with ample
funds in the war chest, this apathy
is consideded harmful to the Red
Cross as the War Council particularly
desires that the public be fully in
formed upon Red Cross war work
Central Division promises to go
over the top handsomely in its
quota of S15,000.000 for the Second
War Fund. and the war chest chap
ter undoubtedly will meet their quotas
now or afterward. but from informa-
tiCn reaching headquarters many
chapters soon will abandon the war
chest method.
