Late in the afternoon the state opened it's case with the testi- mony of Harvey $. Dye, who said that Alva Patterson came to his ranch near the Patterson home on the afternoon of Oct 10 and told him he had shot his father. Young Patterson told him, Dye said, that he had shot his father because the latter made derogatory remarks about his mother.
 Dye said that he went to the Pat terson home, where he found the father sitting in & chair. Dye stated that he did not see the wound or notice any blood, and said that he took Patterson to the hospital. Mir. Patterson, he said, got out of the automobile without any assistance and was placed in a wheel chair and taken into the hospital. A day or two later, Dye said, NIT.

Gallery of Mirrors" Named
From Glasses Which Were
More Precious Than Rubies

"Galerie Des Glaces," or the Seal
lery of Mirrors at the Palace of Yer
sailles, gets its name from IL beveled
mirrors, which were more precious
than rubies before glassmaking was
reduced to a science. Opposite each
mirror is window, these windows
overlooking. the famous gardens which
were scenes of royal reyelries and
regal pomp.
In these gardens all the sculptors
of standing in France were COM
Wandered for innumerable pieces.
Piped waters spout from mouths of
gilded frogs and lizards. fauns play
flutes, and dragons kidnap cupids,
while stately old trees give one touch
of nature against this supremely
artificial setting in these gardens.
The mirrors are framed in works
of art and surmounted by paintings.
One series of these paintings depicts
in fiamboyant scenes the career OF
Louis XIV. Originally tables and
chairs in this hall were of solid sill
yer. The ensemble was typical of the
emptiness of the yoke from which
France freed herself.
