Mrs. Browns Fine Example

one Of the best evidences Of good
political sportsmanship was recently
exhibited by woman candidate
Mrs. Izetta Jewel Brown, who con-
tested for the Democratic nomination
for United States senator from West
Virginia. Mrs. Brown received a re-
markable complimentary vote from
the people of her state, but fell short
Of the nomination. Whereupon she
accepted the results with charming
grace and gave fresh evidence Of her
devotion to the Democratic party and
it's principles.
Her splendid example is a model for
defeated candidates in the Democratic
primaries everywhere. The vote she
received is the best evidence that
Democrats are making no unfair dis
ordinations between mon and women
candidates. One Of our oldest aNioms
is that "All the world loves a lover" a"
and in politics all the world loves a
B0Ou, game loser.

When you sit down to try this on

watch your step.
You may be yanked into court.
Proprietors of number of movie
houses in Gary and Whiting have just
learned that Mr. Berlins product must
be handled with care.
Deputy u S. Marshall Herman Sasse
of Hammond has served summons on
proprietors OF these places to appear
before Judge Anderson in the Federal
court at Indianapolis early in Fehru-
ary. They are named as defendants
in a suit in which Berlin is plaintiff.
The exact nature Of the suit has not
been learned by the men who have been
called but they have set their lawyers
to finding out. It is supposed that they
with movie men of other parts of the
state have been caught on a technical
violation Of the copyright laws and
that Berlin is out to collect damages
for the infringement.
