Estroiogers read IN the horoscope
for today many menscing signs.
Mars, Neptune, Saturn and the Sun
are ali in malenc aspect. while
Jupiter alone is friendly TO the
hopes of the world.
Jupiter Is in a place that Is
favorable TO persons in high place
and seems TO foreshadow increase OF
popularity for the President Of the
United States
Wisdom and foresight are Sup
posed to be impaired to those who
WELD authority and sit in the seats
Of the mighty.
Mars holds evil power this day
The planet is believed to exert In
fluence inimical to progress.
Neptune also is adverse to peacH
and may bring to advocates OF
naval expansion logic and fair
sounding phrases.
Saturn, the planet that is ever op-
posed to progress except through
destructive forces, is in league with
Mars and Neptune.
TSe Sun. which is supposed to
rule men in high diplomatic and Of
fcial positions. is also unfriendly In
it's RUE, making for a tenacity and
stubbornness on the part Of those
who hold exalted rank or occupy
high places.
while the >connguratIon gives
small prou4se of quick success for
conference or any
other session at which methods of
hunSn progress are discussed, the
fact that Jupiter, representing sd-
ministrative functions and judicial
acumen is in benefic aspect is most
favorable.
Business IL subject TO the most
favorable direction OF the stars to-
day.
The conjunction Of Jupiter and
Saturn. which took place on Sep
TENDER 10. Is interpreted to indicate
great and important changes that
affect the whole world.
Persons whose birthdate Il IL have

should conserve their money and

He's Met Another Girl.

you for a little advice. You have

you can help me. too. l am a girl
20 years of age, and have CORE
sponded with a college law student
from my home town for nearly six
years. 1 always thought a great
deal of him, and do yet I thought
he cared for me, but since changing
colleges he has become infatuated
with a girl in the city. From what
he told me OF her a short time ago
l think her much in the silly order
of the young girls nowadays-alto-
gethcr different to me, as I am re-
served in my way with young men
not allowing any kissing. etc. Now

and I'd like to have confidential

walked that far from the station
trying to find a place to spend the

and turned about to retrace her

This Is q letter to two boys
who stood on the corner of Sew

the unknown soldier who is to
be buried today.
The dead soldier must have
been a great man to have

here, and have a great funeral
at, Arlington" said one boy.
He wasn't a great soldier. at

and was killed and nobody knew

boy.
Then what do they have such
a big funeral for?" questioned
the first boy.
cause there are a lot of
other soldiers who were killed
and the people can't find them
at all. 81 they have this one

they cannot find" said the sec
ond boy.
The first boy accepted this as
the real explanation of the bur-
ial Of the unknown soldier.
A Western city has had made
a great heart
Representatives of the city
and State have invited Presi-
dent Harding to visit them.
In inviting the President the
men stated that they represent
ed the hearts of the people,
and that his refusal would mean
that many hearts would be sad
dened.
Therefore II President Hard
ing cannot visit this city the
great heart that has been made
will be broken. ss

the people who are SO very

dent Of the United States.

Diana stood dazed for q moment
by her discovery that the money
was gone.
Apparently either the girl or the
man had neatly slipped 1t from the
pocket Of her ulster during their
progress through the darkness.
True, she had intended to fee her
rescuers literally but there had
been quite a few bills in the roll
and all had been of large denomi-
nation, so that she had confidently
expected still to retain sufficient
funds to carry her back to civilI-
zation.
She was troubled too about the
fate OF Johnston's letter which was
wrapped around the bills. II Domin-
guez should find It. he would hold
poor Johnston entirely responsible
for her escape and already he had
subtly threatened the life of her
supposed fiance.
The barking of the dog back in
the direction of Dominguez's house
urged Diana to flight She realized
that II was foolish to linger in the
vicinity but the sense of some
SAAhe HppIOdChlHs lcTTOT OF the I'M
known dangers which lay ahead
made her move forward slowly.
Moreover II was difficult walking.
She sank ankle deep in sand and
the chill of the desert before sun

wrap.

Appeals Court Stands
On Hard Labor Decision

An attempt to persuade the Court
Of Appeals to amend its mandate
in the case of Charles w. More
land made yesterday by Corpora
ton Counsel Francis H. Stephens
in order that the Juvenile Court,
which erred in sentencing Moreland
to serve six months at hard labor
for nonsupport, might have some
control over such cases in the fu-
ture, failed and the mandate Will
accordingly issue to the JuVenile
Court directing it to dismiss the
case against Moreland.
Stephens pointed out that the law
provides three separate penalties
for nonsupport-one not to exceed
fine of $500, another imprisonment
in the workhouse at hard labor and
the other carrying both a fine ana
