Of genius.
Miss Ada Perrine, principal of the
Crew Street school, says he undoubt-
edly has great genius for knowledge
stored in his pretty blond head.
1--WE didn't push him at all" she
said. 1--WE gave him the regular
work to do and he did it so quickly
that we would try him on some
thing harder. The advanced work
gave him no more trouble than any

"He was popular with his school
mates and evidenced nothing of the

at all times"
His parents have done nothing out
of the ordinary to produce such
speedy development. AT an early
age they saw that he was of unusual
intelligence and, almost in a spirit
of fun, they began teaching him the
alphabet.
To their surprise, shortly after he
was two years old, he began read
ing and writing. When he entered
school it was seen that the first two
years would do him no good so he
was started in the third grade-and
led his class!
He has had practically no sick
ness during his eight marvellous
years.
True to type, for eifht-year-olds,
he has a big question mark ever be-
fore his eyes.
On visit to the city news room
of The Journal he was fascinated
by the typewraiters.

At the age of twelve he plans to

he said. Conan Doyle is my favo-
ite author. Sherlock Holmes was a
great fictional detective but 1 doubt
if he could do much in real life"
He is a modest little fellow. al
though he talks fluently after he
gets started. He makes friends
easily and has particular fondness
for the ladies.
And, too, he is a radio fan. Be
fore being photographed he insisted
on going to WSB and getting his
RadioWl button.
"Mr. Kay is the best announcer
in the country" he said and was
disappointed when told he was not
in the radio room at the time.

Justice Van Orsdel has granted a
writ of error 10 the Juvenile Court
asked for by Roscoe Fillipone, who was
directed by il jury in the Juvenile
Court TO give bond of 81 900 to in

continue until the child is fourteen
years old. The Juvenile Court is di-
rected to certify the proceedings TO the
appellate court for review.
Through Attorney J. s. G. Gallagher,
the petitioner. who has a family and
denies paternity of the child in ques-
ton. claims the law is invalid because
il carries an indeterminate sentence
and infiictS punishment at hard labor.

should not be issued.
The plaintiff company tells the court
that il has been authorized to conduct
and has for several years conducted

tion. but the prohibition authorities
decided that it was not safe for such
use and against mis- protest removed
the contents to the warehouse of the

and sent the plaintiff Il bill for $685.. So
for the drayage. The plaintiff de-
ciares 1T refused to pay the bill and
received notice that if payment was
not made by today the spirits would
be sold to settle the bill. The court

sale: to decree the order closing the
warehouse void and to require the
return OF the intoXicants and the res
toration of the plaintiff to it's rights.
Attorneys A. ID. Van Buren, of New
York and Newmyer & King appear
for the plaintiff.
