Percival Piffkin wrote sentiment fine,
And nobody ever applauded line;
He strengthened each thought, and
he polished each phrase.
But nobody cared for his classical
ways.

And used all the swear words he'd
learned in the past.
In his latest production he set them
all down,
And now ne has u play that's the hit

Georges whiskers may be sacred. but
all other bewhiskered chaps in Eng
land are in danger. Since the beaver
game" was popularized several years
ago in the music halls the public has
little respect for chin decorations. And
the police force has practically issued
an ultimatum that men who wear
whiskers do so at their own risk.
1t is true that an unruly listener at
Hyde Park corner was fined for pull
ing the whiskers of speaker with
whom he had a religious discussion,
but the fine was very slight and the
smiles in the courtroom indicated
clearly that officers and spectators
alike agreed there was contributory
negligence on the part of the plaintiff.

are not extremely closely cropped Is

said, much work in the interior of

plane may work.
The men of the Navy personnel
worked night and day on the arrival

After hearir arguments for and

coed.
May Not Talk
Mitchell had contended that con-
stitutional guarantees Of free speech
safeguarded Army officers in
criticising their superiors. Army
prosecutors refuted the argument.
declaring discipline in the Army
would be impossible If such were
the case.
Col. Sherman Moreland, judge
advocate prosecutor, declared. The
status Of a man is changed when
he enters the military service. He
changes from a civilian status and
the change carries considerable con-
sequence. Colonel Mitchell has
overlooked the element that soldier
enters into an enlistment contract"
The personnel of the Army, More
land said, must abide by military
tradition and law that is laid down
upon it.
Army Would Rot
eff there was a deviation from
this. the Army of the United States
would be left to rot on it's own soil, ="
he declared.
Representative r. r. Reid, Nit

briefly, declaring his argument
lacked facts.
Colonel Moreland bases his whole
'gument on tradition" said Reid.
How could anybody ever be con-
cted for violating tradition?
Il maintain there Ia no law,
-atute or common law, to cover the
uestion we have here. The
cosecution has failed to cite any

Cox then prepared the jury for
possible attack on the credibility of
the star witness for the State, Asa
J. Smith, Il young indianapolis at
tcrney, who wrote down the dying
statement made by the girl.
Smith, an ex-marine, who wounded
at the battle of Belleau Woods, and
