VETERAN HERO JAILED FOR
OLD OFFENSE

Twenty years ago Donald Persch
then 20 years old, while employed in
the District Attorneys office in New
York got mixed up with the Gondorf
gang of confidence men. He was In
volved in the Windsor Trust swindle
of 1912. He turned states evidence
and was not imprisoned, but follow
ing that he was always involved in
shady deals until he had to flee the
country after forging checks to pay
hotel bills.
Hit went to Canada, and when the
war broke out he enlisted. He was
awarded war cross for valor at the
front, and when discharged from ser.
vice, went to California to start life
anew. He went into the real estate
business, hoping to live down the
past. But detective recognized him
and last week he was brought back t.
New York and held for forgery. He
confessed and was sentenced to one
year in prison by Judge Rosalsky.

Radline had just boarded trolley
car ON his way to work when he was
showered with broken glass When he
looked to see what had caused the
accident he saw Gorbin lying under
the front wheels of the car. He Inn
mediately went TO his assistance. The
injured man had been struck by the
ear and suffered the amputation Of one
leg and mangling of the other. Rad
line found the point Of pressure at the
pit Of the injured leg and held 1t
firmly until the arrival of Doctor
Heller, who had been summoned to
the scene of the accident.
After the accident DIR. Heller stated
that the Telephone man had rendered
most valuable assistance to him in his
treatment of the case.
Before my arrival stated DIR.
Heller, che had located the femoral
artery and made pressure over it and
controlled the bleeding. This was most
advantageous to the patient, as there
by he prevented a large loss of blood,
which made it possible 10 operate ON
the patient on his admission to the
Hospital"

There is no reason why the kitchen
should be place Of drudgery and be
left out of the scheme of decorating
the house. So many people have felt
that nice tan wall paper in tile
pattern, yellow pine woodwork high
ly vanished and dirty brown lin
cum solved the problem of the kit
chen. 1t was SO easy to keep clean
for the simple reason that it didn't
show the dirt. 1t matered little that
the dirt WITS Their ejust the same! But
in this day and age when servants
are SO hard to get and harder to keep
that the revolt of the kitchen mistress
has taken place. No more dirty
brown kitchens! Why not grey, soft
! Colonial yellow or sage green wood
work yellow, light grey or white
washed walls? No reason at all
The furniture of the kitchen is also
taking on new lease of life. II can
be painted to match the woodwork, on
be in black or a contrasting color
So many people use their kitchen fol
breakfast room and enjoy doing SC
when it is light and cheerfully dec
GRATED Besides, it saves so many
steps! 1t takes no more time and en-
ergy TO do things attractively than to
do them any old way. Paint is pain,
to some people and no more, and it
shouldn't be SOL Color makes all the
difference in the world, to the effect
of the room as whole and the dis
position of the people in the room!
One sash curtain at the window was
the conventional mode of window
treatment-just a means of shutting
out prying eyes. They can be made
so neutrality-suspicious. by using
double sash curtains or one pair with
little valance across the top. Cling
ham in checks of blue and white, red
and white, or yellow and green add
bit of color and launder beauti-
fully. There is always the old reli-
able unbleached muslin, with colored
binding that is suitable.
Lamp shades can be made for the
overhead lights of Bingham like the
curtains or of unbleached muslin
either ruffled top and bottom or put
on plain. When put on plain and
bound, the material can be shellaced
or vanished, which will make the
shades washable and hygienic.
Floor covering is another problem,
Linoleum is the most serviceable
thing to use because it is easy to
keep clean and wears for long time.
1t is also too expensive to throw
away. If you have one of the dirty
brown variety with geometrical de-
sign in squares, it can be painted two
contrasting colors or in any color
with white as in the above sketch.
First, paint the alternating squares
in black or blue or whatever the col
or is to be, and let it dry over night.
Then the next day paint the remain
ing squares in white or light color
andl ct dry. Varnish the whole floor
and you viii have modern tile lin
oleum that will be attractive and
washable.

Gravel Roads Are Failing
In Wisconsin Report Shows
Neighbor State Also Learning That
Sion Roads Are Inadequate for
Ten-Ton Loads

A study of this years highway
traffic and highway conditions brings
out in an outstanding way that on
the main arteries of the state gravel
surfacing is not giving adequate SER
vice, says the official Journal of the
Wisconsin Good Roads association.
The gravel road surfacing on such
main arteries as 10 and II are not
in as good condition as last year or
the year before. The surface is
quickly worn off by the heavy traffic
and becomes rough and uneven.
Thousands of people can testify to
this fact.
Highway engineers have foreseen
this condition impending, continues
the Wisconsin publication. AS has
often been said, road is much like
a motor truck. You cannot put a
lotion load on a 5-ton truck. With
the tremendous increase in traffic we
are attempting metaphorically speak
ing to put lotion loads on 5-ton high
ways. Despite patrol maintenance
the load increases to a point where
the gravel road cannot adequately

Dark Rig is a Big Factor
In Many Fatal Collisions
Road Accident Demonstrates Safety
Demand for Lights on all Vehicles
After Dark

A 14-year-old girl was killed and
her father, Sam Braaten, was badly
hurt on road near Faribault on a
recent night when their buggy with
out lights was struck by an automo-
bile. Faribault people recalled the
warning given by Charles M. Bah
cock, state highway commissioner, at
a local road meeting shortly before,
that safety requires lights on all
vehicles on the roads at night.
The commissioner predicted that
the next legislature will pass a law
compelling all vehicles on the high
ways after dark to carry lights. He
said the great majority of farmers
and others using horse-drawn rigs
now realize that such precaution is
positively necessary for their own
safety and that of others.
AS lightless rigs on the roads after
dark become less numerous, however,
the menace from those remaining is
it was pointed out.
