SO wide-awake."
MY, how this flatters you! A per-

IF you had held that pose much
longer you'd have had nervous break

known better"
THE man who took this picture ought
to build up heavy business. He GER
tainly knows how to make age disap-
pear, doesn't hep
why, do you always have your pic
ture taken in profile? You've got a
very ordinary nose, to say the least"

otherwise"

"Good-morning," said Billie Brownie
TO the African Clawed Frog In the

"Good-morning," said the African
Clawed Frog, shaking one of his legs
at Billie Brownie. OF course, as you

Mother Nature to go and call on her
various children and to understand
their talk.

A proclamati ton was issued stating
that the citizens would receive full.

The state Of martial law, as pro-
claimed during the morning is to
cover the entire kingdom. II was
called forth by reports OF clashes In
the north and that an army OF Fas-
cisti was marching upon this city.
The government has issued proc

nation Of martial law, saying that
the military branch Of the govern
ment Is prepared to defend the state.

powers Of the civil authorities at
some places.
There are reported to be several
thousand members Of the Fascist in
the army moving toward Rome, but
1t is believed to be reinforcing az It
progresses.
To Control Next Ministry.
Deputy Benito Mussolini, spokes-
man for the fascist in the Italian
Parliament. was virtually dictator
OF Italy today. -
He is the chief leader Of the Fas.
cisti and the guiding force Of the
military movements Of this extreme
nationalistic organization.
His assaults led to the downfall
of the Facta government, and It is
becoming more and more evident that
he and his colleagues will control the
next ministry.
Italian civil war Is already in it's
incipient stages, with Mussolini hold
mig the upper hand.
The fascist are demanding that
the temporary government at Rome
capitulate and that King Victor Gm-
manuel appoint Deputy Mussolini
premier.
This would likely lead to further
trouble, as the fascist and socialist
communist political faction virtually
have been at war since the former
organization was formed.
