Justice Can Show
Speed

1.-TWO young men of Shelbyville, Ind,
Arthur Wyrick and Brazier harrison,
held up bank on Saturday. Monday they
faced the judge and drew prison sentences of
ten to twenty-five years.
For once punishment trod hard on the
heels Of crime instead of limping far behind.
Here s another example Of speedy court ac-
tion Harrison Noel, young New Jersey STAY
Ter, after trial lasting less than day, was
found guilty of murder by jury. He is SEN
|tenced to die in the electric chair, the week OF
JAN 10.
However, even this case Of Jersey justice
WAS surpassed in swiftness by an English
court a couple of days ago. A murderer was
brought before the court, pleaded guilty, and
was sentenced to be hanged. The whole pro-
ceedings occupied four minutes. That was
one of the shortest murder trials on record.
These incidents show that justice can
speed up occasionally. 1t is not necessary for
her to poke along with closed eyes, killing
nothing but time.
Lawyers and others debate learnedly
court reforms and ways and means of in
creasing the respect for laws and courts. The
Marion County Bar Association thinks if
judges wore judicial robes on the bench it
would add to the dignity and respect of the
courts.
Perhaps so. But more four minute, twelve
hour and twenty-four hour trials would do
more to cultivate respect for the administra-
ton of justice than all the robes in Christen-
dom Whan 1uniSbment follows crime GER
tainly and swiftly, it can't be laughed off.

The wind sings merry tunes about
pole on the verge of collapse, a
correspondent informed Mr.. Fixit
today.
DEAR MIR. FIXIT: The pole in
the rear of 1549 Hoefgen ST., has
rotted off just above the ground,
nothing holding it up, but the wires.
When the wind was high several
times this fall, it leaned so it broke
telephone wire. Now we have cleo
trio light wires attached to the same
pole and we are afraid they might
set the house on fire if they fall.

An inspection will be made soon
by the engineers department.
DEAR MIR. FTXIT-This is my
second writing concerning the first
alley east Of Napoleon st. Just
south of Southern Ave. The sewer
causes the alley to be impossible.

Alley repairs are being post
poned because appropriations are
sufficient only for street improve
ments. However, Martin J. IIy-
land, Thomas r. Newsom, street
commissioner, and assistant and
Frank Reid, inspector, Tuesday
toured the city, inspecting bad
alleys. Relief may be in sight.
DEAR MIR. FIXIT: Since you
got action at other locations, I am
wondering if you can get the alley
between Capitol Ave. and Graceland
Ave. repaired at Forty-First st. so
that one can get into it without a
stepladder. FIRST ATTEMPT.

two buildings remaining in the
way of the development of the
plaza as planned. And they are
in the block which is to be Marion
County's contribution to the me-
mortal as well asst he site of the
main memorial structure.
The two churches, whatever
their spiritual and architectural
merits, don't harmonic with the
plaza scheme. A couple of Gothic
meeting houses hunched up
against an imposing memorial
building OF classical design would
assault the esthetic serse of every
beholder. They would detract
from the dignity and majesty Of
the memorial conception.
Certainly the churches should
go, even If their removal costs
the county pretty penny. The
memorial undertaking, costly as 1t
may be is worth doing right if at
all. 1t is intended to be perma-
nent-for future generations as
well as this.
An act of the State Legislature
last spring provides that unless
steps are taken to acquire these
two church sites for the memorial
project before Jan. 1, 1926, they
can't be disturbed for twenty-five
years.
There is about a month left in
which Marion County can act in
the matter. If the county CON-
missioners are going to do any
thing they will have to cease des-
ultory conversation and display
an unusual burst of speed.

Fl HERE is so much musical
ri appreciation these days that
gifts of melody are now more
appropriate than ever for Christmas.
The monograph record is one
medium by which musical apprecia-
ton may be satisfied.
Such photograph companies as
Brunswick, Columbia. Okeh. Odeon,
Gennett, Edison and Victor have pre-
pared lists of records for Christmas.
Beautiful and good music done by
artists actually increases the joy of
the Christmas season. The phono-
gaph is a home institution and as a
part of the home it functions during
a holiday season.

There were about thirty million vines

Something Missing
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

IOlNE OF the sweetest love stories in our Ian
LIZ guage is called can American Idyll, -
by Mrs. Cornelia Stratton Parker 1t is sim
pie tale of the courtship and marriage, the pow
erty and struggles, the birth of the children.
OF two very extraordinary people, and it ends
upon high note of tragedy when the hus-
band dies after period of ten years.
1t is a splendid, moving, poignant thing,
shining with love that shakes the heart, filled
with the charm and beauty, the candor and
simplicity thai one finds only in the classics. It
IS what we all dream that married life
should be.
But somehow, with all of it's loneliness,
something is lacking. In the course of the ten
years Of married life, in spite of the fact that
the two were often holding the door with both
hands against the gaunt wolf of poverty, in
spite of the fact that three children were born
to them and that in all things else they were
delightfully."- human, there is no record of
cross word that ever passed between them, no
intimation that either felt the least bit angry
with the other
The husband went to his death, perfect in
all his behavior; the wife lays bare her an
gulshed heart and can recall no word or ac-
ton that she need regret.
And so one feels, especially if one is mar
rled, that some small scenes must have been
omitted, some harsh words wiped from mem
DRY, after the perfect husband has been laid
in his tomb.
We hope so. For God never intended that
married life should be like that. It's happ
nesses stand out vivid as high lights when
contrasted with the gloom of it's sudden storms.
For about the sweetest things in matrimony
are the little quarrels husbands and wives en-
joy. 1t is, in spite of what authorities say
to the contrary such lovely feeling to be
perfectly furious" with the person you love
best in the world and to know that in little
while you will have forgotten your anger and
be immersed in love again
For we are such peculiar beings that it is
those whom we most adore with whom we take
the trouble to get angry.
And when death separates husband and
wife, it is not the cross word that will be most
regretted-for cross words sometimes speak
most strongly of love-it is not that they quar-
relied and kissed again that will pierce with
pain the memory, but that they went about for
days and days coldly unconcerned and utter
ly unthankful for the love that EMBODIED them
like beautiful garment
1t is not the quarres but the indifference
that will eventually wiring our hearts.

INSTRUCTIONS TO
DEER HUNTERS IN
KAIBAB FOREST

Through an agreement between
the state of Arizona and the United
States Forest Service it has been
| decided to open the Kaibab Nation
al Forest, a federal game preserve
J north of the Colorado River in the
| Arizona Strip" to spOrtsmen for
the hunting of deer during the
period from October 1 to Novem-
Der 30 each hunter being allowed
three deer. The hunting is to be
done under federal supervision
and will be allowed for the pur-
pose of reducing the deer herd in
the forest
The following information has
been given to the Winslow Mail by
Dan A. Gilchrist, of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
who suggests that persons contem-
plating the trip cut this article
from the paper and keep it for
reference.
Mr.. Gilchrist says: "The first
thing to do, if you have made up
your mind to take advantage of this
open season in the Kaibab is to de-
eide what day you want to 60 into
the game preserve, and write to
Walter G. Mann, Forest Supervisor
Kanab, Utah, for permit. State
the date you will be there and
whether you want to hunt on the
east or west side, and if as many
permits have been issued as they
can care for that day you will be
notified, and can pick another date.
When you get your name on the
list for a definite date rig up your
outfit and start in plenty of time
to be there. Take SIS, $40 or SIS
in the form of postoffice money
orders or cashiers checks, accord
ing to whether you want a permit
for one, two or three deer. Cash
Or personal checks will not be ac-
cepted. The actual permits will
be secured from the ranger at
Kane on the east side, or at Ryan
on the west.
Routes
"If you want to hunt on the
east side, the route from WinslOw
is via Flagstaff, Cameron, Lees
Ferry, Jacobs Pool, to Kane, head
quarters of the Bar z Ranch. Here
you will get your permits and be
told where to make your camp.
'To go to the west side, go to
Needles, and thence from Needles
through Las Vegas, st. George,
Utah, Hurricane and Kanab, to
Fredonia. From there it is only
a few miles to Ryan and to the
hunting grounds. .
"It is possible to cross the
plateau east to west or west to
east, weather conditions being fa-
vorable, but the roads are some
thing to be avoided and all branches
of the service are unit in advis-
ing the routes above outlined.
Hunters will be required tol
leave their cars at established
bases and hunt on foot, and will
not be allowed to hunt from car
or from horseback, as it is not de-
sired to have the deer afraid of

Around the blanket, surrounding
the panels and between them and
the border another dancer has been
woven with its head starting on
one side and on a level with the
heads of the other dancers on the
blanket and its body running down
the side, across one end and end
ing on the opposite side in the
conventional three-cornered skirt
worn by the other dancers with the
feet below it. The head and the
feet of this dancer are even with
each other and on opposite corners,
