McGoldrick Helped Friend,

Walter l.. McGoldrick, Y, NJ. C, A
worker and friend to Schoultz, again
brought the calendar matter to a focus
when he. told how, determined to help
his friend, he set out in search for the
missing calendar, He found II, too,
before the gave up the search. He iden-
titled the vagrant calendar which had
been introduced as the one he found
McGoldrick, who lives at 622 North
Dunlap street, said he attended a con-
ference in the office of Mrs. Meyers,
at which Schoultz was present.
Schoultz, he said, declared he could
establish his innocence il the calendar
could he found.
Along the west side Of the Exchange
building, opening from Madison ave-
nue., Is a small space, scarcely TO be
termed an alleyway, The Madison ave-
niue entrance is blocked by a blind
man, who sells papers and magazines.
Thither went McGoldrick and, Chamber
ing through the narrow chasm, went
between the walls of the downtown
skyscraper and the lesser structure
alongside. His search was vain.
Them he mouated TO a floor high up
from the street in the Exchange build
ing. with the desire to save his friend
uppermost in his heart he began n
search with his eyes OF the n%eighbor-
ing roofs. His search was rewarded
by the sight Of an oblong bit of card
board lying atop a roof, far below.
Calendar Found on Roof.
Summoning an official of the build
ing, he obtained permission to use the
freight elevator, which was stopped at
a point close to the adjacent roof. A
negro porter climbed from the window
to the n%eighboring roof. He picked up
| the object McGoldrick had spotted from
on high. II proved to be the missing

Mrs. Meyers. This was about the first
Of June, he said His statement was
not shaken on cross-eXamination.
Mrs. M. Meyers was the next tVitnesS
summoned. She recited that she was
a private detective for the Parent
| Teacher association and that she lived
| at $50 Vance avenue, She was brought
| into the case because of her friendship
for the Rev. Ben Cox, prospective
father-in-law of Schoultz, she said.
1t vas no monetary consideration, but
friendship, which prompted her to go
| into investigation Of the case, she said,
| She related that Dr. COX a come to
| her and pleaded with her to make a
! thorough probe of the charges against

was engaged to marry his daughter,
and that II he were guilty, he (Cox)

ment of Agriculture has devised
a simple and inexpensive, yet
efficient, steam sterilizer which
can be provided at such a small
cost as to justify its use on any
farm from which milk or cream
is sold. The additional keeping
quality which the sterilizization
of utensils will give milk and
cream probably will pay for che
cost of the sterilizer in one sea-
son. Full particulars on how to
make and use this device are de-
