my friends that if had kept It
until / died"
To the suggestion that giving
may weaken the recipient, Straus
says: Impossible! No wisely CIV
en- thing has ever weakened the
fiber of any human being. Kind
ness, consideration of others, is the
thing on which progress is built. So
try to get your less fortunate
friends viewpoint and then act in
accordance with his needs"
@Pay Your Debts"
One other principle is as dear to
Straus as that of giving; it is that
everyone should pay his debts.
This was a lesson l learned from
my father" he says. THE Civil
war left him penniless. He went
to his largest creditor to promise
that he would pay all he owed. The
creditor said, You can't; I've
already crossed the account of my
books as worthless But my father
did pay-every cent.
Paying your debts means honor;
the carrying on of his philanthro-
pies. Asked what it means to be
the wife of man world-famed for
his philanthropy, she says:
I'D rather be known for that
than for anything else. He started
with nothing. All he has made he
made for himself. But generosity
always has been his great virtue"

LINK BRYSON IN
WESTERN CASE
Davenport Professional Rondsman
Brought Into Affair-Warrant
for Arrest Refused.

Charges filed with John Weir.
Scott county attorney, link W. ].
Bryson, professional bondsman
with r. v. Western. who is held in
the Scott county Jail on series
of forgery charges.
Bryson was brought into the case
by Peter Wallos of Bettendorf, who
was involved a year ago in shop
lifting case. Wallos' story is that
he obtained a bail bond from Bry-
son by listing his Bettendorf prop
erty as security. Western was at
torney for Wallos at the time.
Wallos claims. he made an assign
ment of his property to Bryson for
the life OF his bond.
The bond, so it is affirmed, was
later Cancelled when the criminal
charge against Wallos was dispos-
ed of, but Bryson is alleged to still
hold the assignment deed to the
property. Wallos claims that he
did not know he was signing a
deed. Bryson declares that he is
holding the assignment until such
time as WalloS pays for the use of
the bail bond, and that he is not
attempting to defraud Wallos. He
insists that Wallos has never paid
him any money for the bond or for
other costs.
The county attorneys office holds
that Bryson has a legitimate right
to retain the assignment until Wal
los complies with his part of the
obligation. For this reason no
warrant for Bryson's arrest has
been issued.
Wallos secured services of the
Quad-City Detective bureau. of
which NJ. F. Warnock is the head,
but Warnock's demand for a war
rant was refused on the ground
that the evidence presented did not
show criminal liability.
Letters written by Mrs. Jeon O..
Smell, GA Scott street, Davenport.
to Western have been recovered
and will be returned to her as they
are said to be entirely of a per-
sonal nature. An investigation will
be made into charges made by Mrs.
Smell that her signature to q chat
tel mortgage for $4,000, which at
torney in several civil suits have
attached is a forgery. Her sigma
ture on a check for $4,000 involved
in the Western case Is said to be
genuine.

STATE WARNING
Auto License Registration Sets
Record in 1922 But Early
Check-up Begins. .

P. NJ. Hartman, chief Investigator
for the state automobile depart
ment, under Louis L. Emmerson,
secretary of state, left for Gales
burg today after visiting Police
Chief Tom Cox and Mayor Harry
M Schriyer relative to strict en-
forcement of the state license laws
beginning March l.
Mr.. Hartman said that due to an
extraordinary campaign the state
has been making to bring about
earlier registration of automobiles
about half the cars in the state are
now registered. This is a much bet
ter record than in past years, but
still fully half the car owners have
refused to pay attention to the cam
paign for early registration.
There is no call for this as fees
in full must be paid for the year.
With some drivers having 1922 Ii
censes and others the old 1921
plates, police and other officials
have difficulty in keeping in proper
touch with the automobile traffic
and theft activities.
These and other reasons have led
to the decision to start a cleanup

said
Several state agents will be on
hand to aid the police and cars
on the street with old license num-
bers will be stopped and drivers
arrested

City officials join with Mr.. Hartman
in urging immediate registration
of all automobiles to save owners
