Mrs. N. L. Slipper, Age 81,
Is GtUen Birthday Parry
By Her Fr1endS SaturdQY

Out on beautiful lawn, green
with the springtime, Mrs. N. L. Slo-
per, ninety-three years Of age, but
still hale and hearty and capable and
motherly, was entertained at a birth
day party given in her honor by a
urday afternoon at the home of Mrs.
S. L. Owen, 13 West Boulevard, Kirk
wood.
Mrs. .sloper is all alone in the
world, having outlived every one of
her o kinfolk, and once a year her
give her little party" each Wis
iting friend bringing along a crisp
new dollar bill to place in her lap.
She is an inspiration to all of them,
for she still is independent in her
ripe old age, knitting beautiful laces
these she makes her living. And, in
addition, she does all her own house
keeping, washing and cooking and
sewing.
In Spite Of her many years and
undoubted sorrows and burdens, her
outlook on life is anything but cyni-
cal and pessimistic. Her mellowed
disposition and sunny smile were
very much in evidence Saturday aft
ernoon, when her friends gathered
lovingly around her and she had her
picture made, though perhaps there
was tear as well as a smile and her
heart was full. Every year Tor the
past ten years she has been given
this party, and once every year, she
has the biggest day of her life"
An attractive program was given
| in her honor, and one of the fea-
| ture numbers was the wonderful pi
ano playing of one of her old friends,
who is blind. Bernard Owen, whose
home is now in Crawfordville, Ind,
| had journeyed all the way back to
Georgia to be present at this births
| day party. There were solos and
recitations and nearly everybody
present contributed a bit to the aft
ernoon's entertainment.
Mrs. Owens home was prettily dec
grated for the occasion with ivy and
jonquilS distributed profusely
through the house, while an Easter
decoration scheme was carried out in
the dining room. Here, on a center
table, was a large excelsior nest,
with a hen sitting peacefully inside,
and as the guests entered the room
they deposited crisp dollar bills in
the excelsior bank. Soon the nest
was full and overlooking onto the
little chicks around the nest, ninety
three little biddieS, one for each rear
of Mrs. Sloper's youth" as she puts
it.
Everybody went out on the lawn,
where, grouped first with a few of
her "old young friends" Mrs. Slo-
per was snapped by a Journal pho
with a group Of her real young

SAY FOURTH MAN.
IN LAKEWOOD CASE
IS ONLY A MYTH

After an investigation of Atlanta
hospitals had failed to reveal any
trace of a man reported to be badly
wounded in a local hospital as the
result of the Lakewood cutting af-
fray in which Fred G. Thompson met
his death, investigators for Solicitor
Boykin were inclined Saturday to the
view that the letter they received,
tipping them off" to this man, was
mere ruse, designed to throw them
off the track in their probe of the
Thompson killing.
The letter was received by the
solicitor Friday. 1t was an annoy
nous note, mailed in an envelope
bearing the return address of the
Parke hotel, Gainesville, and writ
ten in an almost illegible hand in
pencil. The note said, among other
things, Your fourth man in the
Thompson case is wounded and is
being protected in Atlanta"
The authorities have been search
ing for a fourth man" since J. G.
Thomas, confessed slayer of Thomp-
SON, charged he was iured to Lake
wood by Thompson and three other
men. The identity of two of these
| men has been revealed in the adj
mission of Homer Pitts, held as a
material witness, that he was driv-
ing the car and was cut; and by the
as a material witness, that he rode
| with Pitts in the front seat.
But the fourth man" could not
be found. If he. too, was wounded
and is in an Atlanta hospital, traces
Of him have been so cleverly COW
cred that thus far he cannot be
found. If, however, the letter was
clined to believe, they think it was
inspired by some one who desired
to colnp1icate their investigation and
throw dust in their eyes.
Indications were Saturday that the
| mystery would be investigated early
Leavitt, attorney for Thomas, is

| ton that it will go before the grand

Investigators Of the solicitors Of
