Saved by Official
Ruling
by Universal Service.


The barber shop bay rum bot
tie has been saved from de-
struction.
1t took an opinion from the
Department Of Justice to sal
wage it. -.
The bay rum supply for prac-
tically the whole world was in
jeopardy, because it was run
ming eo.nter to the American
prohibition law.
The bay rum manufacturers
were compounding their prod
uct with no dilution Of the rum
other than a small percentage
Of bay oil.
The question was passed up
to Revenue Commissioner Blair,
who put it up to Secretary Of
the Treasury Mellon, who
passed 1t on to the Department
Of Justice. The Department has
rendered an opinion that new
regulations. prescribed by Com
missioner Blair allowing manu-
facture under permits with not
more than So per cent alcohol
and not less than IL per cent
pure bay oil will not be in vio-
lation of the prohibition law.
This saves the bay rum in

and herewith unfoLds the true pic

By ADA PATTERSON.
Copyright. 1922. by Cosom poiitan News
Service.)
ATLANTA, Ga, June 12.-Al-
though a jury of Georgians decided
that Cora Lou Vinson was guilty
Of the murder of her husband, an
othar group of Georgia gentlemen
has banded to try to save her life.
They are three or more lawyers
who will leave no stone unturned in
the hard upward climb to the sum-
nit Of their achievement.
Three Steps Contemplated.
There are three milestones on this
climb. There is the appeal for
new trial. 1t will be REINFORCED by
numerous expeditions made by her
defenders while the broken. middle
aged woman was being ground by
the mills of the legal process.
II the appeal for a new trial Is not
granted, an effort will be made to
carry the case to the Supreme Court.
Should this effort fail there is left
an appeal for governors clemency.
That way il not an easy one, TOT
former United States Senator Haro
wick, now governor, is lawyer with
q lawyers veneration for the courts
He has a reputation for holding that
court decisions are probably right.
While her lawyers bend above huge
copies Of the Georgia statutes. or
confer long with each other. the
woman whom her family call Cora
Lou presents an aspect Of indiffer-
ence. She has a child-like faith that
Georgia will not hang a woman. like
too much Of woman's faith, 1t Ia no sed
upon ignorance. For the State has
hanged women. Spread upon the
pages OF it's history is the fact that
three white women have Leen
hanged. A quarter Of a century has
interviewed between the last of these
executions Of women and the case OF
Cora Lou, the gaunt Southern woman
of the Cracker" type.
States Advance on Trial.
Has the great State moved for
ward into the light of a greater com
passion and understanding? We shall
see, for the case of DIR. Wilson's self
made widow will determine it.
She shot her husband while he was
running toward her with a threat of
death upon his tongue ana a pistol
in his pocket. That fact Is indis-
putable. In most circumstances 1t
would be enough to acquit her.
But her "in.laws" have done all
they could to make what otherwise
would be a simple situation complex.
No feud is bitterer than one that Is
possible between in-laws. BY some
strange law of human nature, having
its root perhaps in Jealousy, in-laws
often regard each other is natural
erfemies. Three male in.laws the

SEATED Sway" Dance
Is Introduced AT
Chesapeake

The Seated Sway" latest
dance fad from New York's
cabarets, has a kick equal to
twenty "toddles" and thirty
plain "fox trots," according to
ten young couples who intro
duced it yesterday at Chesa-
peake Beach
The couples, seated at ice
cream tables in the refreshment
parlor adjoining the dancing
pavilion at the Bach, placed
their hands on one another's
shoulders and swayed rhythmi-
cally to the jazz strains.
"lt sounds absurd and it
looks nutty, but it's more fun
than tli mixing cocktails" one
young f1epper remarked today.
But to make it real success
full, you have to throw your
whole soul-and shoulder
into it."
Instead Of keeping hands on
shoulders all the time, as they
do in New York, the Beach
couples yesterday offered a new
variation. On hearing the or
chestra strike up Cookie Ookie
Wa Wa, Ookie Ookie Wa Wa"
they began swapping their
fingers and executing mild and
very decorous shimmies.
During the shimmy interlude
one young fiapper, much over
heated by the strenuous sway
ing, took her mind off her work

tastes of her chocolate nut

early aged, early saddened, fought
with all her strength for a clean
home and for a united family.
No Place for Lavender Water.
One does not sprinkle lavender
water upon a fostering sore to heal
it. Cora Lou used clear English and
unfnistakable phrases to her hus-
band. I have no doubt. The hideous
situation demanded stark speech.
No word was spoken at the Trial
OF the frenzy in which the woman
sped the bullet Of death. Fear. the
fear Of instant death. often has
caused temporary insanity. Much
brooding upon imaginary wrongs has
crazed men and women. Cora Lou
had real wrongs to consider. and In
her lonely life she must have thought
often and long about them. The eli.
max of these wrongs came when.
calling on him TO withdraw his plea
for divorce, she met another Of his
threats of death and saw the pistol
in his coat.
Cases of continued faithlessness
and cruelty crowned by a sudden
bewildering fear have led to slay-
ing for which the slayer was held to
be irresponsible. Even though no
claim Of insanity is made there is
established proof OF sudden and COM
plete irresponsibility.

and the courts have accepted 1t as

torture which no man may safely

She forgives and forgives and again
