Z oLR boys who broke into a

fore Judge Petteway of juvenile
court at Tampa, Fla.
He ordered each to earn enough
money to buy a jack knife and pre-
sent it to some boy at the Children's S
Home.
How to punish children who
break laws has long been a prob
lem. This seems a good way 10 make
a punishment understood.
Certainly it is better than locking
a boy up in the company of other
youthful offenders. and better than
imposing a fine TO be paid by a

Had Case Of Booze
In Auto1noile

Fred Tandetta a local taxi drlv-
er, is having a busy time this after
noon trying to convince Prosecuting
Attorney Frank r. Amos and Sher
iff Charlton that he had nothing to
do with the ownership OF a case Of
Golden Wedding whisky which the
sheriff found in his car this morn
ing as it was headed into town. He
says he simply went with Mike Ac-
uaro, also knocked off by the sher-
LII, to get load OF something he
knew not what and that Mike took
him out OF town to a field and re-
trieyed something from the grass,
which the sheriff afterward recog--
nized as a case OF whisky.
Both men were locked up in the
county jan where Fred will have a
chance to ruminate and concoct a
better story. Fred's solicitude to in
vent a good story is due no doubt,
to the danger that he may not only
go to jail but lose his taxi also.
