MOVIE THEATER FIRE
ONE OF BANDIT QUARTET CAUGHT
IN B0ST0N--PART OF $28,444
STOLEN SATURDAY RECOVERED
SATURDAYS STORY

Boston, Nov. 2s.-The highways
and byways of New England were
under police surveillance tonight in
the belief that over some remote
road four men in an automobile with
a broken windshield. were speeding
away with the s2S,444 payroll they
stole in front of the A. G. Walton &
Company shoe factories at Chelsea
this forenoon.
The money was snatchod from mes
sengers of the First National Bank of
Boston as it was being carried into
the Office shortly after o'clock.
Tossing the pouch into the. tOnneau
of waiting automobile, the bandits,
exchanging shots with the messen-
gers and their guard, sped away to
be seen later while passing through
Winchester. Then the machine dis
appeared.
Colonel Alfred r. Foote. commits
sioner of public safety, had 40 of the
states motorcycle policemen securing
the roads of thes commonwealth to-
night. At his bequest the police in
Southern New Hampshire and Rhode
Island towns were also watching the
highways. Colonel Foote said tonight
that the car had been identified in
Winchester by steam roller opera
tor, who reported that one Of its oc-
cupants was being supported in the
rear seat by his companions. This
was said to substantiate the belief
that one of the bandits had been shot
in the neck by Charles Pompey, the
guard of the bank delivery car.
When the messengers machine ar
rived at the office door the bandit car
was standing a short distance away.
In it were steade the three men and
two others were standing idly at a
short distance. When the bank car
turned into the street four of the
bandits walked slowly toward the
shoe factory. AS the messengers
rounded the corner, carrying the
money pouch, they were fired upon
by three of the bandits. One of the
later snatched the pouch. hurried to
the automobile and tossed the money
inside He was closely followed by
his companions, who were .eXchang
ing revolver shots with one Of the
messengers and Pompey. A bullet of
the latter's weapon broke the wind
shield of the bandits machine and is
believed to have hit one of the oc-
cupants.
Colonel Foote said this evening
that nothing had been heard of the
bandits since they were seen at Win
chester.

NOW THE STOCKINGS BLUSH!
BY MARIAN HALE

NEW YORK-Full many flower may be born to blush unseen but not so the newest silk hosiery.
 And none of its sweetness is to be wasted on the desert air if the crowds attracted by it's blushing beauty. is an indication of popularity.
 We have had the beige or pale tan gray hose with us for -ome time. Its vogue has been so pronounced that it is worn with black pumps and low dress shoes, quite as much as with pumps to match. The beige hose pop ularity in the past has, aside from its attractiveness, been due to the fact that it looks like an ultra -transpar- ent black hose. But now comes the innovation which puts the blush of shame-or is it elf-consciousness ?- or is it pride ?-all over it's silken sheen.
 This newest thing in beige is still beige but it's blushing beige, The hose fashioners, not content with emulating transparency want to go a bit further. The faint pinkish tinge of these stockings is designed to give the effect of bare legs.
 It really isn't to be wondered sat that stockings blush little bit the way they are exposed to the public
 No matter whether or not you go in for the blushing hosiery. every woman knows-or should know-that to be well dressed her feet have to be faultlessly stockinged and shod. The smart laced sandal pump in the pho- tograph is of black satin and the sheer silk stocking is also black. Both are always in good taste for after noon or evening wear.

MfSTAH MOCkER LENDS HIS
 VOICE TO SAMMY

Fresh eggs for breakfast every morning certainly are good" said Chatterer the Red Squirrel to him. self. and smacked his lips. If I could only get Sammy Jay to go up to the old orchard this morning, as he did yesterday morning I almost know that Drummer the Woodpecker and Mrs Drummer would be so angry at the very sight of him that both would chase him and this would give me a chance to steal another egg from fhem."
 Chatterer tried and tried to think or some plan to get Sammy Jay to visit the old orchard, but he was smart enough to know that if he seemed to want Sammy to go there sammy would right away begin to suspect who it was who had made Drummer think that he was the thief who had stolen the eggs. Of course this wouldn't do at all. Chatterer had Just about given up all hope of hav- ing a fresh egg for breakfast that morning when his sharp eyes caught sight of an acquaintance and all in a flash a new plan came into his head-a plan that made him chuckle right out
 Now the acquaintance whom Chat terer had caught glimpse of was u. Chatterer hurried after him. Good morning, Mistah Mocker!" he called in his politest manner.
 Good mo'ning, Brer Chatterer," re- piled Mistah Mocker. "Yo' seem to be feeling very fine this mo ming. Tell me what yo' are laughing about so that An may laugh too.''
 Certainly replied Chatterer, who all the time had been chuckling to himself as if there was some joke too good to keep. T was just thinking what lot of fun you must have with that wonderful voice of yours and how easy it must be to fool people,
 Tt is.' replied Mistah Mocker.
 Now there is Sammy Jay" con tinGed Chatterer. Sammy and Drummer the Woodpecker have quar- relied about something and all the other birds in the old orchard have joined with Drummer against Sammy Jay to keep him out of the old or cnard. I was thinking what joke on them it would be if you should hide over in the far corner of the old or chard and then scream like Sammy Jay. How surprised Drummer and all the rest would be when they rushed over there all ready to fight and found that Sammy wasn't there at all. It would be such joke! l wish you would lend me your voice, Mistah Mocker."
 Now Mistah Mocker loves a joke as we'll as any one, and he could see nothing but harmless fun in Chat
