struck by an automobile and in

noccnt when suit in which $2j, 900
damages were asked was brought
against James Cremin In superior
court by the girl. Christine McKin-
ney. The jury in superior court be-
fore which the case was tried found
for the defendant on the latter's tes-
timony to the effect that he had
found the girl In the street after
some other car had struck her. and
that after he had taken her TO "a
hospital. the damage suit was filed
against him instead of against the
person operating the car which
caused the injury.
The petitioner claimed she was
struck by an automobile at Fifteenth
and Main streets October Is. l9W.
and that Crem!n was the owner 6f
the car. 1t developed during the
hearing that Cremin found the girl
after she had been struck by an

ing Cremin was the driver of the
, auto which caused her injury,
brought suit for damages.

SCHOOL STARTS OFF WELL

Dan Cupid did not play havoc with
the faculty staff of the public schools
this year to the extent that he usu-
ally has in the past.
In Tulsa high there were but two
absences among the So instructors
of the school on Monday morning.
One of these was due to Illness and
one TO "a train that left too SOON"
Principal Merle G.. Prunty was very
enthusiastic over the showing made
by both students and instructors.
I'VE are not bothered by II missed
my train" or marriage excuses this
year" he said. "The new year has
ben given a good send-off by every
one In the school and the take Off
was rosy" In the past, Prunty eX-
planned, a number of sudden mar
riagcs among teachers have literally
idemoralized his staff.
No absences We're reported by
grade school faculty heads. Catholic
schools, which began the years work
on Tuesday, reported all instructors
in the city on the day before the
opening.

mulgate or enforce rule prohih-
iting the use Of sugar bowls In
cafes or n rule to stop smoking
In public eating places. Such rules
have been made In Wichita, Kan,
and several other cities.
The contention In those cities
is that the sugar bowl as 1t is now
uscd--on every table and counter
lis insanltary. In cities where
the prohibitory ruling has been
adopted 1t is claimed that patrons
OF cafes frequently put sugar in
their coffee or on food. taste II ,
and II 1t isn't sweet enough, dig
into the sugar bowl for another
spoonful with the spoon that has
already been in their mouths.
As far as smoking in public
