COMES PREPARED
TO PAY FINE.

Overpreparedness probably cost Alva L.
Moffitt, farmer Of Straughn, good stiR
fine for sending obscene letters through
the mails. Under questioning Of Judge
Anderson he said he had about $500 with
him in cash; further questioning induced
him to raise the estimate to $500, and
finally he admitted that he had $500 with
him. lie was fined $500 and costs.
John W. Sargent, 215O BeIefontaine
street, Indianapolis, was fined 500 and
costs for a similar offense and given
ninety days in which to pay.
Tharel Lawson, taxi driver, Indianap

letters through the mails. was permitted
to go free when 1t was shown that he
had been in Jail awaiting trial since

from forging rostoffice mohey orders TO

automobile that wound up In a thrilling
wild west chase and capture. featured
by much gun play at Seligman, Ariz.,
earned a year sentence in the At

the postmaster Of Burns City. 1t de-

forged money orders at Burns City,
then had made a trip to California and
Arizona In a stolen automobile, leaving
q trail OF bad checks all along the route,
the last one being check for $500 cashed
In California.
TERM GIVEN
IN AUTO CASE.
That automobile thieves who ship
stolen cars in interstate traffice can ex-
pect no leniency from the Federal Court
was shown by the sentence OF eighteen
months imposed on Wilbur Waters, 40,
Of Clinton. Joseph Huffacker and other
parties stole an automobile IN Illinois and
with Waters drove 1t to Terre Haute.
Waters had no part in the theft, but knew
the car had been stolen. Huhacker is
now serving a sentence in the Illinois
Reformatory for the theft.
II don't want to do this, and | wish l
could let you CO." Judge Anderson said
in pronOuncing sentence, but this bust
ness Of stealing automobiles must be
broken up"
This morning at 10 O'Clock Judge An
derson resumed the task of Pronounc-
ing sentence on those defendants who
entered pleas Of guilty and the entire
day was taken up in this work,
1t is believed that trial of defendants
entering pleas Of not guilty will begin
about March u.

A communication this week
from Citizen" ought to set this
town to thinking. 1t is true
that Vermont is more purely
American in blood than most any
other state and it is up to us to
maintain American traditions
But it wasn't so much to be
wondered that the town showed
Indifference to our day of men,
DRY and mourning when this
same village hasn't community
pride and spirit enough to put a
plot of ground into a small park
as the setting for a soldiers
memorial, given the town by
popular subscription. The re-
scinding of the vote for a pal
try thousand dollars for a mem
orial park in the heart of the
village is a sorry commentary on
human ingratitude. We will
have the park because individual
citizens, who have already given
a daughter and three sons, on
the red alter of war, finance it.
President Harding is terse in
his utterances and they GRIP the
imagination because of the big
ness of them for all their sim
plicity. Standing among more
than five thousand caskets, each
containing the body of a man
who died in France, he said st
must not be again" There was
a promise that every effort |
would be made to prevent mill
tarism from getting a strangle
hold again upon the world. We
do not know how it is to be
brought about, but we do know
that without being weak, with
out sacrificing any of our ideals
or our integrity, in short with
out paying the impossible price
of sovereignty, we are in accord |
that we want to prevent future
wars.
An exchange has been reading
foreign papers with the result
that it begins to appear that we
are getting on the right track
becaUCe Europe sees us getting
more and more American, after
our Internationalism fever of
the past administration. The
editorial says:
Europe's idea Of Americas present
foreign policy is we'll illustrated by
IN editorial on the first page of a
recent issue of the French news
paper Mouse, published at Liege,

Faithful to the Monroe doctrine,
which has survived the pacifist lean
! ings of President Wilson, Washing
ton cries more loudly than before
the war: America for the Amer

''The line of policy is reported to
have achieved an important triumph.
The republics of Costa Rica, Hon
duras, Nicaragua, Guatemala and
San Salvador are said to have been
republic with a common flag, a
single currency, represented abroad
by single diplomatic agent. The
convention establishing the union
was signed on January Is at San
Jose in Costa Rica.
For a long time such a union has
been one of the fond dreams of the
United States and the birth of this
new state-the United States of
Central Americas the fruition OF
a cherished desire.
at is, after all, history repeating
itself. Until 1889 the five indepen-
dent republics cited above, together
with Salvador, were federated
Neither the efforts of General Mora
zan Of Honduras nor those of General
Barriis, president of Guatemala, sue
ceeded up to 1919 in grouping these
little states.
"For a long time the United States |
have endeavored to further this
movement toward national unity. The |
undisturbed possession if the pana-
maa canal makes this union Of |
capital Importance to the United |
States. The effort has now been |
crowned with success and thanks to
the creation of this new republic !
Washington assures not only its |
protectorate over the Panama canal |
but also reserves the right to con-
struct second canal either across |
Venezuela or at some other point |
which may be indicated by it's COM
mercial interests. /
"The federal union of the New
Wol Id has had a happy beginning. /
The active, enthusiastic, liberty-lov-
ing vigor of the youthful races of
America see a new haven opening
before them. Their aspirations are
as happy as they are legitimate.
Roofing in a soil as yet free from
traditions, the United
States will soon see the fruition of
the seed of unity which they have
sown and their Statue of Liberty,
colossal, generous, will some day en-
liven all of the New World"
We cannot say much more than to
add that the writer in the Mouse has
written a first-class Fourth of July
speech. If more of our American
writer's were to take the same view
Of what our ideals should be we
would be holding closer to the spirit

President Harding is not going
to be a superman. He is calling
the best minds Of the country
for conference and in that way
is reminding the country of the
administration of President
Roosevelt. Recently he has
been holding a conference with
] P Morgan, Paul Warburg and
a half dozen other men, promin-
ent in the financial world, to
talk over national and inter
national financial affairs. Where
would you go but to those who
have a grasp of big business and
banking to find out the answer
to the problem. 1t isn't that
any one mans advice has to be
taken, but his views must have
value. 1t seems like the good
old times to have a man in the
White House who is willing to
consult with all sections of the
country before acting,

should feel the heavy hand of

Senator Penrose says that the

system is ineffective, wasteful
and demoralizing in many of its

necessary to transfer the en-

tainly must have come to the
same conclusion as the senator
as to its ineffectiveness.

Boudoir dolls are worry popular at
the present time. but they are so ex-
pensive when purchased in the shops
that they are beyond the reach of the

From tho waist down is n flarinE wire
frame on which the skirt is draped
Tho socket for tho electric light bulb
Is fastened inside this wire frame and
the cord for attaching tho lamp comes
out under the long skirt when the doll
Is finished.
Dresses OF these dolls are usually
made Of taffcta silk or some other
silk which has stiff finch Some
where about tho house you will surely
find scraps OF silk which will do for

used, the skirt and bodice being made
OF ono kind and the pannier draperies
at the side OF another color or OF a
flowcrod or figured silk In some tone

enough little rutr1es Of soft crinoline
may be fastened to the wire frame at
the sides under the taffeta skirt. The
bottom OF the skirt is hemmed by hand
in marrow hem, and this hem may be
covered with a narrow open work gilt
braid as a finish. The bottom OF the
skirt may be finished also with mar
row gilt lace edginC. These finishes
are a matter OF individual taste. Tho
pannier at the top of the skirt IL cut
slightly fuller than tho skirt itself. 1t
is continuous across the back and
opens in the front. The pannier should
extend about half way down the skirt.
The Illustration shows this plainly,
