Friday and Saturday, June z and 8
United States Marshal g. r. Alexan-
der will make his headquarters those
two DAYS at the police station for the
purpose of receiving applications fcr
permits to come within the half mic
radius Of the armory
If aliens do not call at the police
station and receive their permits, they
will be obliged to 90 to Portland.
Those who fail TO secure these per
mits during the two days, viii be n
able TO arrest and internment If found
within the prohibited zone around the
afmory.
The prohibited zone around a Y. ,.
armory extends for half mile. Hence
those aliens who do not receive this

Florence Cheney Bullard, aged IL, be
lieves her kisses are valuable, and when
