Just big hearted loyesick boy.
With the smile of 1S years of
youthful experience" Miss Helen
Feltheim. 1907 South Twenty-eighth

her erstwhile suitor, James Gilliland,
| 30ls Evans street.
Gilliland, held for investigation in
connection with an alleged attempt 10

ard & Wilhelm company Wednesday
at noon. declared his attempt to pass
the check was to finance his mar
riage to Miss Feltheim.
At Halloween Party.

tials, while a possibility. were hardly

II met Jimmie last Halloween at a
party. He was a truly counting sheik.

cause he lived too much within his

pleasing personality. l told him

Marry him?
''I am not going TO marry anyone
for sometime"
Upon the plea of the youths moth
er. Chief Of Detectives Charles Van
Deusen has consented TO file
vagrancy charge against Gilliland
which means it is probable a light
sentence will be pronounced. The
mother told Van Deusen that the boy
was injured in an accident about
year ago and hasn't been normal
physically or mentally since that time.
Gilliland was sentenced 10 80 days
I in Jail by Municipal Judge Frank
I Dineen. He was accompanied in the
court room by his mother and Gail
Carey. an assistant in the cashiers
office at Orchard & Wilhelm's. The
original sentence was 90 days. but
pleas Of the mother finally induced
the Judge to cut II to 30 days. In
answer 10 the mothers request that
he be paroled Judge Dineen stated
he had no power TO grant paroles.

Mosquitoes,

The mosquito, not depressed by the
campaign made against him along

States to the other, is putting up a

A more hopeful report comes from
Chevy Chase in Maryland. A cor.
respondent Of The Star flashes this
news: "Officials of Chevy Chase. Nd.

mosquito campaign for two seasons,
assert that their labors have been
successful and that the suburb, once

Guarding q Bank.

In an Illinois town is a bank that
takes precautions against theft. The
town Is Millstadt- This town is not
large enough to have its name on
many Of the maps Of Illinois. but it
Is in st. Clair County and cannot be
far from East st. Louis and the Mis-
sissippi River and is not many miles
above the junction Of the Ohio and
the Mississippi. Evidently bank rob-
bers have been bold and active In that
neighborhood. Onicials Of this bank
have decided to keep the bank doors
locked not only out of banking hours
but during business hours. A patron
OF the bank will rap at the door and
the respectability of the visitor before
letting him in. A riot gun has been
mounted In the building to sweep the
entrance should an effort be made
to force it.
These are extraordinary banking
measures, but they are commendable.
In large banks in cities the main
banking room has become a public
meeting place, and the man at the
door-when a bank employs such
man-is less critical Of those who en-
ter than the doormen at many hotels.
In the banking room thin grillwork
partition generally is all that sepa-
rates the public from the cages and
the vaults. In city banks, guards with
concealed but no doubt ready weapons
are on duty, alarm signals may be set
in a moment and, usually, police
are not far away. There is so much
risk in starting something" in a big
bank in a big city that even desperate
criminals do not often start it.
In small towns bank conditions are
different and bank robbers seem not
to have found it hard to drive into
the town, enter the bank, line up
everybody in it and drive of with
the plunder. The Millstadt bank peo-
Pile insist on knowing who it is that
would do business with the bank be.
fore letting him in. The plan will
probably be tried by other banks in
villages and small towns.

MEN AND AFFAIRS
BY ROBERT T. SMALL

Now that so much fuss rs being
made over the young Prince Of Wales
1t Is interesting to, recall that his
participation iE the World War was
guarded by the British with a cen.
sorship that was all but impenetrable.
This treatment of the British heir ap-
parent was in striking contrast to the
exploitation of the German Crown
Prince. OF. course. the latter was
much older than Wales and had had
his military ambitions Kratified by
being placed in supreme command
over one of the German armies. 1t
was his fate TO attack VerGun, and
lose.
Wales was but lad of 20 when
the war swooped down upon Europe.
Like all the other young men of
the British empire he was anxious
to go to the front. There was, how
ever, the necessity of safeguarding
the royal dynasty. The Germans also
felt that way about their Crown
Prince. and while he commanded an
army in the field. safeguards were
and he was seldom, If ever in dan
ger. Some British. airmen tried to
reach his headquarters. one night, but
a snow 1sauall. caused them to lose
their way.
The Prince of Wales ambition to
serve with the troops eventually was
gratified, when he was made a staff
captain-a .'brasshat" as the British
Tommies call them-and, sent to the
headquarters of Gen. Lord Cavan,
commanding the 14th Army Corps,
Somewhere in France" 1t was there
the writer first saw him and there
was no more modest subaltern in all
the kings armies. The prince was
just as popular in the army as he
has proved to be in civil life, and the
assignment of him to Lord Cavan's
staff was a particularly happy idea
for that bluff. hearty Irishman treated
the British heir to the throne as just
an ordinary parsonage.
At one period. in 1917, it was re-
ported the prince was going TO write
some special articles on the war. The
correspondents at the front natural
ly were interested and endeavored to
get a confirmation. One of the press
officers called up Lord Cavan over
the neld telephone and, asked IL he
could throw any light upon the mat
ter.
Walt minute" the general re-
piled, 'the prince is running around
here somewhere: I'll ask him"
