WOMEN SILL Missing
Search For Mrs. Josie N. Stamp, OF
Near Car>sin, Continued Without
suoosss--Woman Believed to Be
, Mrs. Stamp Seen Here.

Continued search Tor Mrs, Josie
NJ. Stamp, OF near Garwin who dis
appeared from her home Tuesday
night. has proved unsuccessful, no
trace OF the missing woman having
been found up to noon today. Her
husband, John stamp, expected TO
come To the city this afternoon to in
vestigate n possible clue. A neigh
Dor who was In the city Wednesday
reported that he had seen woman
on the street who greatly resembled
Mrs. Stamp. Investigation OF a re-
port that Mrs. Stamp and her moth
er were registered at the Pilgrim no.
tel failed to clear up the disappear
ance. Mrs. stamp was registered at
the hotel last Friday and her mother
In said to have been with her. altho
the latter was not registered. Mrs.
Stamp was known TO be In the city
last Friday but she returned home
that night.
Mr.. Stamp and his friends contin-
ned the search Wednesday and ef-
forts were made to picl, up the trail
from the railroad crossing south OF
Green Mountain, where II WAC lost
Tuesday afternoon, but these proved
without success.
Today Mr.. Stamp devoted his time
to search in the immediate neigh
borhood of the home and expected to
visit the city late in the day for a
further search here. 1t Is thought
possible that Mrs. Stamp may have
wandered from home and then dou-
bled back and found lodging in a
residence without telephone COM
munication. Neither the sherifr's Of
ficens nor the police have found any
trace Of the missing woman in this
city.

Upon the manner in which the boy or
girl passes the mental and physical
tests depends the ultimate disposal Of
his or her case.
Judge Lindsey asserts that a way

1t in this manner A girl may be 13
ment of a girl Of 1S and the mental
development of a child of ten years.
All this, l have found. has a
great deal to do with the way Of
handling cases Of delinquent girls
the Judge declared. "For example,
take the case OF. a 16-year-old girl
who has run away and married a ma

has been married and the question to

her to a refcrmatory merely because

velopment is that OF a normal girl
Of 16 or older and II she loves the
man she married. why it seems that
for her sake she should not be pun

The Judge says that whenever a
girl comes before his court, the first
procedure is to obtain her three ages,
through methods developed by medi-

An appropriation has been granted
for the carrying. out4.of the proposed

The Judge describes in this fashion
how the department already has aided
one mother:
"A mother came to me the othe,

daughter of 10 who, gave her ~ NJ

THE KING AND HIS GOAT.

Tinker Bob came back to the Pal
ace full of joy over the prospects of a
great occasion, on the Day Of Frolic.
All Of the Forest Dwellers that he had
seen, had promised to help out by do
ing their best to entertain all of the
others. e'~s
He felt sure that Sammy Squirrel
would do his part on the program, If
1T was nothing more than to jump
from one tree to. another, And Chief
Perky was going to show the Forest
Dwellers how he could protect himself
from the most dangerous creature.
Three Legs the Muskrat had promised
to do q diving stunt AND bring up any
thing any of the Forest Dwellers
might throw into the river.
ooh. yes" said the King to himself,
there's one I have nearly forgotten,
and that is Red Fox. l wonder where
he is? He will do something l know"
So Tinker Bob went into the Palace
and looked about, but no one was
there but Mr.. Beetle: OF course he
expected to find him there, for he was
always very careful not to get outside
the Palace lest Jerry the Jay or Billy
Grow might put an end TO him.
While Tinker was looking to see If
heard the footsteps Of Jack the Wood
Rat. "Hello there cried Tinker.
where are the rest of the servants of
the house,"
Red Fox sent me into the Forest
to get him some food. Is he here?"
Mr.. Wood Rat looked about in sur

Where is my coat? ?" asked Tinker
Bob as he searched for the missing
garment. "And my hat is gone. And
where is my walking stick?" Jack the
Wood Rat was surprised to hear that
the King had lost these valuable gar
ments. Then it entered his mind that
it might be possible that Red Fox
wanted him to go into the Forest pur-
posely, that he might get the Kings
garments. But then what could asEIoX
do with a coat and a hat and a walk
ing stick? 1t all seemed very strange
to him. 49,
There were thoughts that came tc
Tinker Bob that did not seem SO
strange, for he knew all about the
pranks of Red Fox. The only thing
that puzzled the King was why REQ
Fox wanted such garments as these
If he had taken them. Then there
