LONDON, Aug. 27.---There will be no
immediate change in che ownership Of
"Thc Times" sno matter what COM
plexities arise out Of the litigation
over the will of tho late Lord North
cliffe, in the opinion of close observers,
who prophesied to-day that an ad-
ministrator Of the estate would be sp-
pointed to carry on the publication
under the present directorate.
Lord Northcliffe's own program as
to the future of "The Times" ia in dis.
pute. 1t is. said by some of his friends
that at one period he contemplated en-
dowing the paper as an independent
organ under trust; that his attitude
changed In later years and that he
meant to dominate the paper after his
death by the provisions Of the will.
The contest over the estate appar.
emily will hinge on whether Lort
Northcliffe was Of sound mind when
his second will was executed, shortly
before his death. By the terms Of this
document Lady Northcliffe Is the sole
executrix. She is also reported to be
the chief beneficiary Of the earlier
will, dated March %, 1919, against
WhiSA So7S6ec A6FC poEu SObcAlS0 Oy
the executors and trustees, Henry
Preuss Arnholz and Sir George Sutton
There are four codiciis to the earlier
testament, the last made on April 81
1922.
The caveats will have the effect oi
preventing administration of the estate
pending hearing. The summons which
has been issued puts the whole prob.
lem up to Chancery, and not until one
of the wills is admitted to probate Will
the wishes Of Lord Northcliffe become
officially known.
The fate of "The Times" is the
subject of q three-column article in

Garvin, who points out that aside from

Little Johnny, Overlooked in Vacation Schedule
Writes Pathetic Appeal and Money
Flows In TO Crafty His Wish

Our little "freind" Johnnie Fresh Air
has Joined the Writer'S Club. Yes, siri
He's getting money for what he writes,
too.
1t happened like this: Johnnie was
vacation hungry-he's been that way
all summer, to tell the whole truth. He
got to wondering about all his friends
and why they didn't AK it 80 that he
could get out to the country for a
breathing spell
Then he got out his friendship book
to look over the list of the names of
the folks who used to do the .'fxin'"
for his vacation last summer and In
years gone by. You can guess what the
book showed from the ejaculation TO
which he gave vent as he ran his eye
down the list:
Gosh an geewhilikinsl" said he,
"they's 5000 OF 'em that's forgot ali
about me this year. What do va know
bout thatl Guess better write to ZEN,
'n'tell 'en I'm still alive"
And he did. This is what he wrote /:
Dear Friend, You know me an susie
cause we wrote to you before. Well
susie she got her vacation with the
Tribune Fresh Air kids alright. But
been waiting for mine all sumer. If
know but IL you forgot both us could
you right the Tribune to send me
Gosh aint had swim or ball game
all sumer. Yours

JOHNNIE FRESH AIR."
Mailed It to 5000
He wrote this on postal card in his
own inimitable hand, and in a little
space at the bottom he drew two faces
--one long and thin, with the corners
of the mouth turned way down, and the
| other round and fat and smiling. I'm
der the long, thin face he printed
NOW" and under the round, smiling
one "IF CO."
Then he mailed this postal card ia
the whole 5000 of his last years
friends who hadn't realized that va
cation last year doesn't relieve the
| tedium Of a long summer in the city
this year. So, If you are one Of John.
nie's oldtime friends, don't be sur
prised If the postman rings the bell
this morning and leaves copy Of the

/ hastened to assure Johnnie that they
are his firm friends STILL They didn't
say it with flowers, either, but with
checks with figures on them. One OF
them thinks the boy is pretty good
| letterwriter, apparently, for she sent
| with her check this comment:
Congratulations to the author OF
this (meaning Johnnie's postcard). II
| Is irresistible"
Johnnie felt quite puffed up when he
read that.
The next critic to review the lad'f
opus developed an analytical streal
and told how Johnnie "got" him.

Johnnie knew what was coming when
he read that far-"please find check
