She's a modern little lady.
With skirts above her knees.
And she is no longer bothered
About rubber-neck bookcases.
Her hair Is Of the color
OF a sun-bleacbed Utah hill.
And its waves contain the life-biOOd.
or q twenty dollar bill.
Her complexion II the finest.
That Rue de In Paix Give~.
While the shinmy and the toddIe
Are the Joys for which she lives.
She loves those naughty dances
When the saxophonists moan
She swears, she drinks, she fiirts, she
smokes,
She even-rolls her own.
She's nothing but . butterfly.
FlutterinE near the flame;
And when she's sinGed she powders up
And flutters back again.

ALLOWS STATES FRAME
STRUCTURES TO STAND
Judge Crump Denies Requcs,
for'Injunclion by the
City Attorney.

While holding that the city of Rich
nond had the riglk to enforce recoa-
milton OF It's ordinances concerning
buildings, Judge Crump on Saturday
issued an order denying nm inlurr' =,
asked by the city. requiring th@
and the military board TO remove
certain frame buildings erected by
the board on property adjacent To the
state prison. within the "nre zone"
In his opinion, Judge Crump points
out that. while the erection OF the
srnmc buildings within the lire zone
was probably without authority and
against the building ordinuncc.. now
that tho buildings had been erected.
he would not order them RACED as the
request did not comprehend snch i'm
perativc action. II is believed, how
ever. that In the event the State or
any one else attempts TO erect frame
structures within the fire zonc. with
out consent OF the building Inspnc-
tor, there would hc different action
The case cam" from the Police Court
where Justice Ingram ignored the
complaint OF IN" city that tho frame
building erected hy the military board
should he removed.
