FORMER CONVICT MAKES USE
 OF PRISON IDEA FOR LOCK

WALLA WALLA, Wash. Nov.21- 4 former inmate of the state pen itentiary here has gone fiction wri- ters one better. He has not only reformed and turned his experience along useful channels, but has de- cided to employ the knowledge of locks that he gained behind prison bars in making his fortune in an honest way, now that his sentence has been served.
 Recently a letter was received here from this former inmate stat ing that he was having great success selling burglar proof locks. So fast are his locks selling that he believes within a short time he will be roll ing in wealth.
 An inquiry resulted which brought forth that while this parsi- cular man was not sent to the pen itentiary for safe picking, he man. aged in his association with other men while here to gain information about safes and locks that enabled him to manufacture a lock which has so far proved an obstacle to safe crackers.

SWEDEN IS HOLDING EVEN
 ON IMMIGRATION QUESTION

STOCKHOLM. Nov. 21--Sweden broke almost even on emigration and immigration during the past year, according to figures published by the Central Bureau of Statistics.
 The number of emigrants was 895O, or about 1900 less than in 1920, while 8551 Swedes returned to their home country and 562 for eigners became naituralized. Of the entire number of Swedish emigrants about 65 per cent went to the Uni ted States. There were about twenty per cent more women than men a. mong those who left their native country. Most of these women were single, and between fifteen and twenty-five years of age. ....
 In view of the fact there were about 50,O0O more births than deaths in Sweden during 1921, ii Is evident that the resident popula- tion of the country is increasing.
 Sweden is exercising increasing restrictions upon her immigration, which has never been large. Thus, in 1921, one half of the Russian ap- pleants and nearly one-fifth of all the German applicants were refused citizenship.

Christmas

Yoho Skinnay, listen to this!
The Barbara Worth hotel is
going to give Christmas dinner
to the kids. Turkey and fixin's
and plates piled up with all that
a hungry kid ~can eat. After
that there will DE q picture show
for everyone, through the gener-
osity of Jim Cook of the Palace,
and all in all it is going to be
a riotous day for the youngsters
in this locality.
The idea was originated by
Mine Host Conway of the Bar
bara Worth. He hopes that here
after it be an annual affair as
long as he is in the hotel bust
ness. In Mr.. Conway's career
there have been Christmases when
he didn't have turkey, and there
have even been days when he
didn't have much of anything to
eat-and so Mr.. Conway knows.
To Mr.. Conway's mind, there
is nothing quite so pathetic as a
hungry kid, and of all times to
be hungry Christmas is the worst
of all, and so this Christmas and
hereafter the Barbara Worth is
going to furnish turkey for the
youngsters.
OF course the turkey dinner is
not going to take place exactly
on Christmas day, because there
are so many other hungry people
on that day that Mr.. Conway is
committed to take care of; but
the Sunday before Christmas is
the day when the big feed will
be staged, and he is especially
anxious to be put in touch with
all the kids who might lose out
on turkey were it not for his
party Race, color OF sex makes
no difference; the only qualifi
cation is that they shall be kids
with an appetite for turkey.
Mr.. Conway was going to Ell
gage the theater to round out
the day with picture show, but
Jim Cook wouldn't have it so, and
insisted upon having this part in
the kids Christmas all for him
self; but even if Santa Claus is
twins and disguised for the mo-
ment in the persons of w. r.
Conway and Jim Cook, there will
be eats and movies for the young
sters on the Sunday before Christ
mas.

NO CLUE TO LOST
ARMY AVIATORS,
MANY in SEARCH
Airplanes, Autos, Run
ners Hunt Wild Regions
for Airmen

SAN DIEGO, Dee. 11.-Under the
direction of Capt. Robert G. Erwin,
of North Island, who is now at
Tuscom, the desert wastes of Ari-
IONA, New Mexico, and even Mexico
are today being searched for Colonel
+. =. Marshall and Lieut.. c. L..
Weber, missing army aviators.
Airplanes, automobiles and Indian
runners are to be used in the inten-
sive search in the hope of finding the
missing aviators who disappeared
from sight on Thursday, while en-
route by airplane from San Diego
to Tucson.
In spite of threatening and stormy
weather, the search went forward
today, the government making ev-
erv effort to locate the missing fly
ers and their army airplanes.
But one clue has yet come to the
surface. Reports have been receiv-
ed that an army airplane was seen
travelling east over Estrella, Ariz.,
800 miles east of San Diego, on
Thursday. This today caused the
search for the missing men to be
shifted to that locality.
A dozen army airplanes are today
pacing the air lanes in the vicinity
of Mohawk and Growler, Arizona, in
the hope of finding trace of the fly
ers in that wild and mountainous
region.
