Says

arrested the OIncL uoJ w
IA cause he kissed her in
public place. It wasn't his fault
how did he know her cheek was
Q public place?
THE man told the judge he
thought the woman was his
wife, but the, Judge didn't believe
him, he said no man would be so
glad to see his wife.
THIS guy wanted to do the
right thing and even offered
TO marry the woman, but the
Judge said Keep still, I'm the
one who'll decide on what punish
ment to give YOU"
THE dame said that the man
had committed highway rob-
berry by stealing a kiss from her,
but the Judge looked her in the
face and decided that the defend
ant was only guilty Of petty
larceny.
HE asked this bird how he hap
pened to kiss such a homely
woman. The fellow said it was
kind OF dark and be couldn't see
what he was doing.
THEN he explained to the court
that he was cross-eyed. He
was looking at pretty girl and
kissed this other one by mistake.
HIS lawyer got up and said
his client was looking where
he kissed, but he didn't kiss
where he was looking.
THE woman demanded five
hundred dollars for each kiss.
The judge told her to be careful
or she's be arrested for profiteer-
ing.
THE defendants attorney
claimed that the price was
outrageous because each kiss was
clear profit to her.
MOST women hate to be kissed
by a stranger, but after the
second or third kiss the man is
no longer a stranger.
A MAN should only kiss girl
in her home. but it isn't his
fault IL she hasn't got home.
IF a fellow had to pay five hun
dred dollars for every kiss he
got, he'd spend 50 and get mar
ried.
THEN If he was downtown it
would cost him only nickel
carfare to go home and get all he
wanted for nothing.
THE guy who got arrested for
kissing this woman twice
proved an alfbi. He claimed he
was only putting the first kiss
back.
CTOLEN kisses are the sweet
~ est, but the other kind are
cheaper in the long run.
YOU'RE liable to be in Heaven
for two minutes, but in Jail for
two years.
THE Judge sampled one Of the
kisses that the woman de
nanded $500 for, and then or
dered her to pay So to the guy whc
stole them.
SINCE the law won't let the
citizens carry reviewers, the
only way the women can protect
themselves is to eat onions.

Murder of Dominic CuzzocoIi
II May Find Solution in

! tion Here to Clear Up
/ Mystery.
he ONCE LIVED THERE

In the case of Dominic Cuzzocoli,
killed in December. 1919, Off Benning
road. at the foot of Boone's hill, just
This side of the District line. Wash
fngton. has a murder that may dove
fail into the series Of "blackhand"
murders uncovered as a result Of an
Investigation in West Virginia.
Inspector of Detectives Grant is
now working toward this end. 1t was
learned today. and is digging up all
data, with the assistance of Detec-
tives Morgan and Thompson, who
handled the investigation at the time,
which may aid in bringing points in
the West Virginia blackhand investi-
cation tn light.
Murdered by StabbinE.
Police records in December 1919,
show that a young Italian was mur-
dercd here by stabbing. The body was
found evidently some time after death
had taken place. The throat was cut
and there were seventeen stab wounds
in the body. Detectives Morgan and
Thompson picked up a stilletto near
the body. Over the face of the MUIR
dered man had been spread the in
sigma of secret Italian society mur-
derS-a handkerchief to shield the
features from the elements. The face
in so-called "blackhand" cases Is in
variably covered, according to ex-
perts.
1t took some time to find the trail.
The face was so badly wounded, and
had been so long exposed to the post
inortem decomposition. that identifi-
cation by features was impossible. A
tailor's label on the coat covering the
body was found soaked with snow

the word Newark, N. j." was made
out Morgan went to Newark. BY the
aid OF the label the Identification was
established. Relatives Of the deceased
were found.
Identfty I. Establisbed.
This uncovered a line of clues which
finally established the fact that Cuz-
xocoli, who was about twenty three
years old. had been trailed to Wash
ington from Fairmont. w. Va. and
murdered here. It was established
that he had left that town with the
common-law wife of Joseph Alte-
monte--his uncle-after the latter had
been robbed OF $500. The couple went
to Bowden. q little town of North
Carolina Men from Fairmont located
them there and induced Cuzzocoli to
come to Washington. Arriving here
he was murdered.
Police arrested q local man and
Altemonte, uncle of the murdered
man. They then sought the woman.
She had disappeared. and because Of
the lack Of the essential evidence she
could give, both the men were re-
leasd.
The case of Belle Lemons some
months ago in Baltimore brought back
echoes Of the case, with the intima-
tlon that probably the same secret
organizations had something to do
with that murder.

Organization Members and Fam
lilies Entertained at Theater.


AS guests of Rotarian Roland S.
Robbins. the entire membership of
the Washington Rotary Club with
their families occupied a reserved
section at Keith's Theater last night
to welcome Miss Julia Arthur. the
noted Shakespearean actress, who is
presenting this week the queens
closest scene from Hamlet" L. F.
Albee's contribution to the revival Of
the immortal bards works that is
sweeping the country.
The applause following Miss Ar
thurs wonderful Interpretation Of
what Is considered the most impor-
tant scene in the story Of the mel
anchoiy Dane called for a speech, and
she explained to the Rotarians and
others present the purpose of those
fostering the Shakesperean move
ment. She said that, while 1t was al
most impossible to do justice to any
scene from the poets plays in the
limited fifteen minutes allotted to
vaudeville acts. it had been decided
that the vehicle used last night was
the most suitable.
The actress was showered with
flowers from her Rotarian admirers,
and. following the performance, Miss
Arthur, with her company, received
the guests in the lounge of the the
ater. where Myer GoIdman's orches-
ira presented a special musical pro-
gram, and refreshments were served.
Dancing followed.

vailing in the twelfth century.

young men and women from voca-
lions in which their real happiness
would lie," surely is not the true
view of university training. Educa-
ton is, after all, training for life, not
for class of vocation, professional
or otherwise. The Harvard graduate
who becomes a farmer is not only a
better farmer but better human be-
ing for having made the acquaintance
of the stars and meditated upon the
limits of knowledge AS a character
in Robert Herrick's recent novel says,
it takes something indie you " to live
off here in the country and not go
dead" Also the merchant, or the
mechanic, who knows economics or
physics not only is better equipped
for his business or his trade, but he
has a broader field of cultural re-
sources than the movie and the
park.
That education is the keystone in
a democratic society long has been
taken for granted. America has been
built upon the principle of equality
of opportunity. Education is the
spiritual legacy of the race and no
one should be deprived of it's share
of the inheritance. Though human
beings are not born equal in all re-
spects, as the intelligence test indi-
Gates, the right of those who are cap
able of being educated to become edu-
Gated should not be abridged. The
healthy flexibility Of occupational and
social grouping in this country is
directly dependent upon the ease
with which education may be gained.
Gifts to universities like those of
Carnegie's go far to prevent that
social paralysis which is the caste
system.
To interpret education as training
'or the higher. professions, or for any
class, is a fundamentally undemocra-
lie conception.

ALIENS 60 TO SCHOOL
More Than Million ard half
Trained il. Citizenship.
Government Seeks to Reach Those
Who Fail to File for Naturaliza-
tons, $40, 1885 Aliens Now in
United States.

Washington, d. C.-Night schools es-
tablished by the bureau of naturaliza-
tion of the Department of Labor so
that aliens seeking citizenship may OBJ
tain the necessary educational training
are proving highly satisfactory, accord
ing to officials OF the department.
Since the beginning of the service
more than million and a half candi-
dates for citizenship have been directed
in the training classes. Communities
have been awakened to the need Of the
classes and to their economic value,
and the cooperation thus afforded has
resulted in greater efficiency and
keener interest.
This system, it is said, is weak in
that it can only establish contact with
those aliens who take some step toward
citizenship. In 1920 the number Of
known male and female aliens in the
United States was 5,549, 1856, with $780,
1873 whose nationality was unknown.
This last number were aliens who had
not filed applications for citizenship
and probably intended returning to
their native countries.
Whenever a candidate for citizenship
files his petition the name is obtained
by the bureau of naturalization from
the clerks of courts. These names are
given to school officials in the locality
in which the petition was filed, and
a letter is sent to the candidate urging
him to attend the classes
An official of the bureau of natural
ization said he believed the plan for
training aliens for citizenship is one
of high Importance to the country be-
cause it makes for more intelligent
citizens.
"Many OF the aliens who come to
us remain only few years, return
ing to their homes for extended visits"
he said. "Old World surroundings,
after living in America, soon pail and
they return to this country. After this
experience they are ready to attain
citizenship. How much better pre-
pared they would be If during their
first visit, they had attended classes in
public schools"

ROAD JOY TO AUTOISTS
Old Spanish Trail Followed in
New Highway to California.
War Department Deeply Interested In
New Highway From Military Stand
point-FIorida Section Well
Under Way.

| New Orleans.-The old Spanish
trail. a national highway from Jack
sonville, FLA, to Los Angeles, CAL,
along the gulf coast and through the
| territory Immediately north OF the
Mexican border, is destined to in
clude several sections of road the
equal of which will not be found
in the United States, if plans of good
roads enthusiasts interested In the
project are carried out.
Secretary Weeks recently notified
the New Orleans Association of Com
merce that the War department and
the Department of Agriculture had
reached an agreement whereby that
section of the highway from New
/, Orleans through the Louisiana marshes
to the Mississippi coast had been
placed on first priority as federal
aid project. The War department Is
deeply interested in the highway
from military viewpoint.
1t is estimated that road through
the marshes strong enough to with
stand any gulf storm and to bear the
weight of artillery would cost from
100000 to 100000 a mile, including
the necessary bridges. This would
make the cost of the twenty miles to
the Rigolets, one of the outlets of
Lake Ponchartrain, approximately 49,
100000. 1t would necessarily be of
special construction and so heavy as
to require minimum of repair.
Construction of the marsh road
would provide New Orleans with
highway to the north and east. The
only way of entering the city now, If
motorists do not drive west to Baton
Rouge and from there to New Orleans,
is to ferry across Lake Ponchartrain,
a water journey requiring at least
two hours by the shortest route.
Construction of the Florida section
Of the Spanish trail is well under
way and that state, with federal, state
and county funds, now is building
broad, heavy concrete highway from
Jacksonville to Pensacola, distance
of more than 375 miles, The high
way will parallel the Seaboard Air
Line railway from Jacksonville to
Pensacola, q distance Of more than
375 miles. The highway will parallel
the Seaboard Air Line railway from
Jacksonville to River Junction and
the Louisville & Nashville from River
Junction to Pensacola.
