ROMANTIC ROBBERY

Romance is not dead even in
the realm of crime. The latest
development of the crime wave
is the systematic looting of richly
laden motor trucks plying be
tween New York and Philadel-
phia by what a New York paper
calls "land pirates. +"
1t is western mail coach rob
berries all over again, in the form
Of trucks looted of silk and other
valuable merchandise by bandits.
Millions of dollars worth of
goods are said to have been taken
in this way in the past year. The
roads are now to be policed with
armed motorcycle guards, who
will prccede and follow the rich
eargoes, and in addition there
will be decoy trucks bearing
armed men instead of goods.
If this is reminiscent Of the
mail coach, it also recalls
medieval caravans bringing their
valuable freight from Indian or
China or Arabia. 1t is the same

GEM HAS PLACE IN HISTORY
Why Great Ruby Has Been Given
Position Of Honor in British
Monarch's State Crown.

The history of England might be
written round the gems that adorn the
royal emblems. Place of honor in the
front of the kings state crown is given
to the great ruby, which is as large
as a small hens egg, and is the cele-
brated and historic jewel which first in
its English history belonged to the
Black Prince, the eldest son of Edward
III. The ruby came to him in knightly
fashion on the field of battle, being
given to the Black Prince by Don Pc
dro. king Of Castillo, for skill shown
in short campaign in Spain. The
ruby does not appear in history until
1t took part in the battle of Agincourt,
when Henry went at the head of his
troops with the ruby glittering on the
front of his corOneted helmet. More
than a century later, when Charles l
was beheaded, II was ordered by par
lament that all the insignia of royalty
should be destroyed, and the gems ser
therein sold to the best advantage. In
the list appears the statement that the
great ruby was sold for "a and passed
TO some unknown purchaser. He may
have been a royalist in disguise or he
may have been a dealer in stones, or
this may have been a spurious deal to
favor parliamentarian but
whatever its adventures during the
commonwealth era. we find the ruby
safe ana sound back in the state crown
of Charles H."

WHY
The Giving of an Apple Was
a Real Tip

The sophisticated city man, wise ia
his own conceit and full of a sense of
that wisdom, will smoker when he
hears of Ecw Nebraska 'rube" gave
a hotel bellhop a big red apple as
tip. But just let the smart aleck
think moment
Giving of apples has had some ma

destiny of the human race. 1t started
right at the very beginning, when
Mother Eve gave one to Adam. and
from that day to this the train of
events then set in motion has been

Launched a thousand ships, and

Apples that grew only in the Car
den of Hesperides brought something
of fame to Hercules, but he gathered
them.
In fact, the history of the race teens
with incidents in which an apple
has had something to do with
shaping destiny. We may turn away
from that and consider the point in
more material aspect.
Had the farmer given the boy
dime, it would have been in strict
accord with conventions. Yet the boy
would have had some difficulty in ex-
changing that dime for a big red ap-
pie. He could not eat the dime, but
he could devour, INCEST. digest, assin-
ilate and enjoy the fruit. Therefore,
just in the degree that the pleasure
of eating large and juicy apple, no
matter what variety, exceeds the Slip
ping Of thin dime into ones pocket,
so did the boy gain through the farm
er's generosity. 1t was real tip, all
right, rare enough, and therefore, the
more noteworthy.-Om Bee.
