PICKFORD DIVORCE
CREATING FURORE
CONTINUED from Page one)

Their. She said she did not recollect
whether in her letter she credited her
statements to rumor or made the di-
rect charge. Only the return of the
letter, which was demanded by Judge
Langan and Sheriff Nelson, can de-
termine this. Mrs. Brown however,
expressed her sorrow at what had
occurred and said she was willing to
make a full and public %retraction of
the statements contained in the let
ter and which she admitted she did
not believe.
So far as known Mrs. Browns let
ter has not been returned to her, nor
a copy Of the paper publishing the
story, which had been sent for, been
received, but when these arrive and
their full text is known, the %retraction
can be more intelligently handled.
After the receipt of the San Fran
cisco letter by the Appeal the circum-
stance was mentioned to a number Of
state officers and it is hardly neces.
sary to say that they were unanimous
in their expression that the charges
made by the woman were outrageous
and without any semblance of fact,
but that the matter should be sifted
thoroughly and public retractions
made that would absolve Judge Ian
gan and Sheriff Nelson of the charges
made by the vicious rumor and de-
tailed in a letter by a thoughtless
woman
Deputy Acknowledgement Robert
Richards was among those informed
of the story published by the Cali
fornia paper anG his indignation at
the preposterousness of the accusa-
tons knew no bounds and lie said it
made it more necessary than ever for
his Office to go through with the pro-
ceedings which would be instituted
to have the decree in the Pickford-
Moore divorce Sc aside in order that
Nevada law and Nevada officers, in
Guiding the judiciary, could not be
made the jibe of the nation.
Mr.. Richards stated that the suit
will be based on the contention that
Judge Langan was without jurisdic-
ton in the case and that the divorce
was secured as a result of collision
and conspiracy.
He also stated that he had practi-
cally completed his Investigations
and that the result has been that he
is satisfied that on account of the in
suflciency of the residence of either
party and the methods used in con
Quoting the case the court failed to
acquire any Jurisdiction.
II will present the results of my
Investigation to Attorney-General
Fowler" said Richards, land 1 am
convinced that the suit will be filed
at once.
ut probably will be filed about the
middle of next week and will be
brought in the district court at Doug
las county, where the decree was
granted"
Judge P. A. McCarran, who con
dUcted the Mary Pickford end of the
divorce case, was in Los Angeles a
few days ago, and of him and his con-
nection with the matter, the Herald
of that city stated:
Judge Patrick A. McCarran, for
nlerly chief justice of the Nevada SUI
preme court and attorney for Miss
Pickford during her divorce trial, has
issued a lengthy statement reviewing
the case and answering the attacks
OF the legality of awarding the decree.
The decree will stand the test of any

Three truckloads of sheepshearers

shearing will soon be on, according
to the Reno Gazette. Preparations

this year are to receive seventeen
cents per head, which will mean that
a good shearer will average about SIT

Americas cutters have taken to the lure of the open road, the wilderness campfire. and the haze Of the golden vacation days, like house afire. Right now hundreds are preparing to hit the trail If you own even a wheeZy motor car, the rest is simple.
 Excellent road maps can usually be had of the secretary of the state ill which you wish to tour, sometimes of the county clerk. Numerous tire com panies have even better ones which they will be glad to supply. Auto clubs exist in most of the bigger towns. You will be surprised how the members will go out of the way to tell you about the best roads. They'll tip you off to the best fish ing places and the best camping grounds.
 The sporting goods man is ready to help. There are tents which but ton onto the auto curtains. There are others to be susperted by band running over the top. Then there are the plain wedge and the wall tents- tho latter probably the best for per manent camp and the auto tents for quick moving and temporary lodging,
 Folding cots and plenty of heavy woolen blankets solve the bedding problem. A floor of canvas sewed into the bottom of the tent keeps the wind and bugs out and is well worth what it costs. Some tents need poles. Better carry them along. Jointed one3 may be purchased. Once in a while the tourist strikes a place where no poles can be cut.
 The country schoolhouse or the country churchyard has come to be known as the auto campers life
 saving station" They make dandy camp grounds. Some towns now pro vide regular camping places for tour ists.
 When you find good camping ground, stop. There may be hone for miles farther on. Make camp at once. Get the tent up, the folding cots set, and the beds made. Then the eve ming meal
 The motto of the good auto camper is to start early and stop early. loaf ing late Before you move on, celan up your camp ground, burn waste paper. busy empty tins. see that the fire is eXtinguished before you leave. Be certain about that Millions in lumber are burned each year by care less campers in leaving their fires which they THOUGHT were out. As to roads, good ones exist and better ones are being built all over the country. If your road map says sand do not be discouraged. Some fellow along the line will bob up and tell you how to detour, or If you go into the sand you will probably find lit sounds worse than it really is. For

 Save Gasoline
 The rising price of gasoline is grad ually making the automobile owner think. seriously of the situation. Oil dealers say the supply is dwindling and are beginning campaign of ed ucation so that no gas may be wasted. Two points are most i'm portant.
 First, keep yoxr carbureter perfect ly adjusted 90 that every bit of fuel is used up Second, do not run the engine while the machine is standing. Such slight attentions are a saving to the motorist.
