Scme people never get enough of

Ernest Latham has a two weeks
old baby at home. It is needless
to say that such a youngster needs
no urging when it comes to rending
the atmosphere.
Notwithstanding all this, Ernest
got himself a guitar. He may
have wanted it to drown out the
other noises for all we know.
The trouble with Ernest was he
swiped the guitar instead of buy
ing 1t.
The instrument was stored in the
Pennsylvania Railroad freight sta
tion.
1t was the first time, as far as
any one knew, that Ernest had ever
been guilty of such a thing.

pleaded with Judge Aukam not to
