With the announcement Of this pur-
pose of the federal government to en-
courage foreign capital to take the
risk of developing new and profit
able industry in Brazil, some of the
Brazilian newspapers adopted tone
seeking to warn capital against ven

newspaper argument is that this new

Brazilian enterprise and capital. This
attitude, of course, is detrimental to

has had on wild young girls is un-
precedented. "She is a heroine in
their eyes-as in her own," Mrs.
Hamilton said today, land this
creates a most unfortunate situation.
The fact that Celia and her husband
are trying to shield each other is
an additional bit of heroism in the
eyes of the hayward girl who regards
the whole thing-just as Celia ap-
pears to regard it-as a scene from
movie.
"In a way the public has itself to
blame. 1t is the public which crowds
round every doorway in which Celia
is scheduled to appear, it is the pub
lie which gapes at her. and not too
secretly admires, and does everything
but cheer when she comes into view.
This curiosity is of course natural:

An entrance that insures privacy is
one of the features of the home pic.
tured here.
Homes of brick and stucco of this
ory-and-a-half, or semi-bungalow
type are popular in many sections of
the United States because of the
combination of practical features
with comparative economy of con-
struction.
Houses of this type, although not
particularly of inviting aspect when
they stand alone, combine readily
with surrounding foliage and are de-
lightful in proper settings, partiN-
larly if care is used in the selection
of a decorative roofing material.
The height of the first floor above
the ground lines insures an excep-
tionally light and airy basement. No.
tice that the entry door is on the
ground level, and that the first floo-
is gained by means of short flight
of stairs in the entry hall.
This entryway gives access to the
living room. the dining room and tine
stairs to the second floor. Both the
living room and dining room are of
comfortable dimensions. The size
of the living room is augmented
both in appearance and utility by the
large sun porch. The large opening
between the two makes them virtually
one large room. The fireplace is
feature which few homebuilders will
be willing to do without.
The dining room is well lighted and
of pleasing rectangular proportions,
and the kitchen is planned to give the
utmost convenience to the housewife.

New York, April 26.-It is re-

upon the rank and file of people

the snobbishness, upon the rank.
This, despite the fact the gunwomen

Take, for example, the man who
went seeking charity the other day.
He wanted a job, so he told the
head of Il charitable organizatio

Then why not get it," the charity
man suggested.

the applicant persisted. He reached
into q pocket and drew forth a clip
ping which had pictures of Celia and
Ed Cooney and an account of their
career in banditry. There's a man
and a woman for you! - exclaimed
the applicant for charity, there's
a couple that had the right idea. Go
out with a gun and get 'emselves a
living. And that's what I'm going
to do unless you people help me-"
The charity official expostulated
as charity officials will.

This case is presented as it hap
pened. The man didn't get his $50

out for himself is a matter between
his conscience and, possibly, the po-
| lice.
There is no question, however, that
Celia COoney has made deep impress
SION upon people who hadn't before
thought seriously about being bandits.
! Not that Celia's career will neces-
sarlly mean an increase in holdups,
there are about as many now to the
square inch as possible, but it does
mean that lot Of people on the
ragged fringe between honesty and
thievery are thinking hard about this

packer is being set in the No. S Of
the Rio Grande Production Company
and the Aviator Oil Company to shut
out the. water in the top sand before
the well is brought in. 1t seems now
that oil men have established beyond
a doubt that the top pay in the en-
tire Edgington Field carries a little
water and in some places the water
is sufficient to interfere with pro-
duction. Lately most wells have set
casing low enough to shut out the
small top sand. The casing is set in
this well at 1857 feet and a second
cap was penetrated at 1897 feet with
IS feet of sand and broken lime, shale
and sand below. 1t is the sanu oe-
tween this split cap which is being
packed off. The bottom of the hole is
1926 feet. Driller Abercrombie, one
of the owners Of the lease, says that
he will make a good pumper of this
well and will have it producing by the
first of the week.
