ANOTHER CHILD FORGER
Eleven Year-OId Negro Girl Escaped
to Chicago With Money.


On March "a, the same day that
Edna Brake. 10 years old, was ar
rested for forgery as she was trying to
pass a worthless check for SIS on
Crosby Brothers, Helen Paine, the IL
year-old daughter of Helen Paine
colored, was also passing worthless
checks on Topeka merchants. She
made good her escape, however, and
the police remained silent concerning
the affair, hoping she would return to
the city.
She cashed check for $50 at the
, Warren Nj Crosby company, after
making several purchases; another
for $40 at Holcraft's floral shop, both
signed with her mothers name, who
had a small account in the Merchants
National bank. After the girl had left
the city the police were notified and
Detective Ed Ransom and George
Frost went to Mrs. Bells home at 2029
Guthrie avenue. While there a tele-
gram was received by Mrs. Bell from
her sister in Chicago, announcing that
the child had appeared there.
Helen had been attending the To-
peka Industrial institute but she
came to Topeka on a weekend and
stayed with her aunt, 1140 Duane
street, unknown to her mother. 1t is
said that Mrs. Bell has made arrange
ments to make good the worthless
checks.

March meeting to- change the constItu-
ton. which now limits The club mem
bership to 400, so that the limit would
be 800. 1t was not proposed, how
ever, to put out the eighty-fiVe mem
bers-oVer 500 who are in now, but as
| others drop out, let their places re-
main vacant until the membership was
down to 300. Mrs. McCarter, the
president, who presided, talked in ia
vor of the amendment, as she conSid-
cred it better to have a waiting list
than a club which has fewer than the
maximum limit. She also said
smaller club was much easier to man
Z
gested that no action be taken at this
time on the article.
Mrs. S. S. Beggs moved that the
amendment be voted on, altho she said
she intended to vote against it. Mrs
Myra Williams FARRELL made con-
vincing talk against the change, as did
also Mrs. d. l.. McEachron, Mrs. J.
NJ. Brier Mrs. A. NJ. Petro and Mrs.
c. B. NanHorn. Mrs. A. Marburg and
Mrs. George W. Parkhdrst talked in
favor of reducing the membership
limit. Mrs. Saxon suggested that after
a woman had been asked once for rer
dues and had not RESPONDED, she be
dropped from the membership roll.
But Mrs. McCarter explained that by
doing that the club would lose its hest
mem bers. Mrs A. A. q } lard said she
would like to see the membership
limit this year 400 ind next year 500.
When the vote was taken there was
only one vote in favor of the amend
ment, hence the club membership
limit is to be 400 for the coming year.

WATER PRESSURE HIGH
Insurance Companies in Topeka Have
No Complaint, Says City.


Following statement that fire in
surance rates might be raised on ac
count of low water pressure. G. S.
Hopper, engineer in charge of-the city
water plant, declared. Thursday eve
ming that water pressure in Topeka
had been up to normal since January.
Pressure for February and March
had been uniformly 80 pounds per
square inch for domestic purposes and
lac pounds at the pumps for fire,
said Hopper. Every fire alarm has
been promptly responded to with
pressure to 140 pounds within one
minute
Hopper stated that he was prepared
to prove that the insurance companies
had no cause for complaint. He said
also that L. T. Hussey. state fire mar
shall had expressed an entire satiSfac-
ton with the present pressure.
1t was mentioned by Hopper that at
the time the January water bills were
paid, many patrons complained about
the size of their water bills. believing
that the higher pressure was running
up their bills and asked that the pres
sure be reduced. He said that upon
Jesse Shaw's order the pressure was
kept at 80 pounds but added that
from this time on he would keep do
nestle pressure at 100 pounds. Hop
per declared there was no reason for
low pressure except the deliberate
choice of the water department.

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beauti-
full, glossy, silky hair, do by all means
get rid of dandruff, for it will starve
your HAIR and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
you will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hun
dred times better. YOU can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. 1t is mex
pensive and four ounces is all you will
need, no matter how much dandruff
you have. This simple remedy never
ails.-Advertisement.
