SAFETY FIRST DOESN'T
 STOP CHINESE CRACKERS

Los Angeles, Feb. Il - Although the youth of Los Angeles is prohibit ed, under city ordinances, from ex- p1oding firecrackers on July 4, to celebrate the anniversary of Ameri- can Independence, the local Chinese colony has been ablaze with the vola- tile pyrotechnics during Chinese New Year, which began January 26, and the celebration of which continued until Feb. IS.
 This was because of a resolution introduced by Councilman Fred c. Wheeler and unanimously adopted instructing the Chief of Police to grant a permit for the fireworks.
 Wheeler said that "sho ooting fire crackers is a. part of Chinese religion on New Years.
 "It will not cost the city of Los Angeles anything, and it will give the Chinese a good deal of pleasure" he continued.

 But he ceased his wondering to tufn sharply into nearby drug store, there absently to give an order at the soda fountain and stand watching the pair who had stopped just In front of him on the corner. She was the same girl; there could be no doubt of that, and he ragged inwardly as she chatted and chaffed with the man who looked down upon her with a smiling air of proprietorship which instilled instant rebellion in Fairchild's heart Nor did he know the reason for that, either.
 After moment they parted, and Fairchild gulped at his fountain drink. She had hesitated, then with a quick decision turned straight into the drug store.

 "Well. sell it to himl" And Fair child, looking into the soda-fountain mirror, saw himself indicated as the druggist started toward the prescrip- tion case.

OLD STORY WITHOUT FOUNDATION
Nothing to Support Belief That Bells arius Was Reduced to Beggary
 in Old Age.

Belisarius Svas the chief military commander of the Emperor Justinian, and probably one of the greatest gen. erals of history. He was born in 5Oo and died in 565, spending, Tn his life time, nearly forty years in military service. His soldierly skill renewed for a time the ancient military glory of Rome, and he earned the title Of "The Africanus of New Rome." His career as general is divided into two epOchs, the war against the Vandals and that against the Goths. In both wars he was so successful that he was given a triumphal entry into the city of Constantinople-the then Roman capital-the first that had graced that city, and the first n any part of the empire since the days of Tiberius.
 Like many another favorite of a great ruler, Belisarius was finally the victim of false accusation of con- spiracy, and was degraded and re- duced to poverty. Around his last years many legends arose. The best known of these is that he wandered. blind and destitute, from door to door, asking aims and crying Date obolum Belisario" CA penny for General Belisarius"O.
