San FranciscO.-FOr the first time
In American courts parentage has

On the strength of a formal re-
port made by DR.. Albert Abrams,

ginia VittOri was the daughter OF
Paul VittOri, Judge Thomas T. Ora
ham ordered Vittori to show cause
why he should not be punished for

sively that the blood of the daugh-
ter correspondent racially to that OF
the father and mother, viz, Italian
on the fathers side and Spanish and
French on the mothers side, in pro-
portion approximately TO three Of the

through the agency Of circus side
shows, wherein the 'Wild Man Of

Head hunting and kindred savage

Dutch press. most of the natives are
rapidly adopting modern theories.
In Java, the upper class native
women, under leadership Of Raden
Adjeng Kartini, woman Of higl,
birth, are reported to be making rapid
strides toward emancipation, al
though the Mohammedan custom OF
polygamy still prevails. In all the

men. Dutch correspondents say the
progress of the movement is neces

The magazine from here and there
That's full of snappy tales,
The City News with fragrant yarns
Of men who fill our jails,
With headlines bold, sensational,
Of some new holdup caper-
Each has it's place, but first Of all
Give me the Home Town Paper.
To me it means a whole lot more
Than just the weekly news,
Or comments on the nations plight,
Or editorial views
The Joys and SORROWS of the folks
1 know and love are there,
The folks who know and love me,
Whose experiences / share.
The calling home of some dear
friends,
Or where the stork has been
The doings of the people
am interested in,
These are the things which build fol
me
My little world each day;
Cause folks at home mean more tc
me
That facts from far away.
I read with pride of some home boy
Who's out to make his name
and now is climbing step by step
The stairs that lead to fame.
It pleaSes me to read about
Improvements that are made
And how each merchant does his bes
To build up local trade.
The magazines can tell us
All about the Isle of zap,
But our home paper strives to keel
Our village on the map
So when the worthwhile things O
life
Are being handed out
The Home Town Paper first of all
i want to have about.
