fitted would be Gordon Heights,
Bellefonte and adjoining villages
When these communities can

ice may be established, according TO
Mr.. Billany. In this case. about $500

The man Is thought to be without

While many calls have been sent
in and answered that seemingly were
caused by some frightened indi-
vidual. the police have not relaxed
their vigilance. as Petkewicz Is
known to be a menace to the com
munity so long as he Is at large.
The house on Reed street where
Petkewicz spent the night. and 9TH

saving. know charming girl

or lavender. They are all becoming
TO her and look we'll when combined.

Always buy gowns that are becom-

They'll last long enough to get out

One Of the prettiest narrow belts

The ankle strap is with us again
and many OF the smartest shoes
have them. They have a tendency
to make the ankle appear slender
and at the same time act as an
ankle support.
The small two-skin neckpiece IS
to be the popular fur for the sping
costume. Minks, sables. grey
squirrels and stone Martins are
among the best sellers. Fox Of
every description is good. There is
a new beige colored fox that is love-

platinum Is quite the latest rage.

at all this season.

Bile The physicians at the hospital
think the injury was received some
time last night. and the man lay
there until found this morning.
There are two theories as to the
murder on which the police are
working. One is that Albogina may
have been attacked by the crazy man
at large in this section. and who has
already almost killed two men, but
this is purely a guess as there is ap-
earently no reason for thinking this
xcept that the crazy man is here and
known to be dangerous. The other
lcory is that the injured man had
aad some thouble with another man
ieer a woman. Letters found in the
pockets OF the man. signed IN. c.
'A,' are now held by the Detective
Bureau, show that the injured man
had been corresponding with the
other man (whose name is withheld

woman.
The victim IS feet G inches high.

years OF age. He was smooth

russet shoes and red sweater Near
the body was found a raincoat TO
which was fastened service button,
cap and straw hand bag, in
which were found some addressed
envelopes and a few onions. only S5

The description Of the man tallies
with the description on file in the
Detective Bureau of Andrew L.

Second and King streets, this city,
and has served several sentences in
The workhouse. even TO the missing

ectives are convinced as to the

Aibogina. who at one time worked
az the Pusey and Jones yards was
found guilty Of highway robbery at

was sentenced TO the New Castle

two years to receive 80 lashes and

TALK GIRL LIBERTY
BY WIIFRED FLEIsHER,

PARIS. (By Mail TO United Press)
Paris mothers are stirred over
question OF proprlety. Should they
allow their daughters on the streets
unaccompanied and, II so. at what
age can they be safely turned loose
from the protecting eye?
Before the war came to upset ira
ditions, the question could simply
never have been raised as there
could have been but one answer
negative one. The burdens which
women Of all ages however. were
called upon to play during the war
have wrought change in the whole
social fabric and just how great this
change has been. may be reflected in
some OF the views expressed by
readers in the French press.
The remarkable feature Of the
discussion is that not a single
mothers voice has been raised in
protest against allowing young wo-
men TO go about unaccompanled
the discussion has centered on de
termining the age at which a young
lady may be entrusted with the re-
sponsibility OF her own welfare.
A writer points out that the ques-
tlon Is a particular one in France
where the masculine education IS
different from what It is in England
and America-differen enough 70
