SPURNED, GIRL
TAKESP0|SON
IN CAFE

Tragedy stalked love in San Pedro
Avenue cafe Sunday, where an is
year-old girl attempted suicide by
drinking poison.
And following her to the hospital
white-faced, was the boy who tolc
her. Il am through"
The cafe crowd was aglow with the
satisfaction that follows Sunday din
ners. and the din of dishes from the
kitchen shut out the dismal beat OF
the rain outside.
I'm through, 7 tell you, I'm
through with you,- they heard the
handsome youth say. And the pretty
girl beside him pushed away from the
table, her eyes reflecting the agony
Of lost love as she stumbled TO the
front of the little dining room.
Someone laughed.
JUST LOVERS QUARREL.
1t was a lovers quarrel. and
between the ample meal and thu
drowsy period of the rainy afternoon
furnished a fleeing amusement, to b
talked over with politics, cabbages anc
kings, during tho small-talk of tn
evening 10 come.
The room was still for a momen
and then hummed again, with tn
smugness of Sunday dinner table dis
cussions.
And then the girl screamed from
the tiny adjoining dressing room.
The sister of the poisoned cir
reached her first. Il can't live with
out him. gasped the girl, as she wa'
carried away on the stretcher.
WANTS TO DIE.
Afternoon drowsiness forgotten, tn
crowd surged to help the girl who's
life was so nearly spent on the ALTA
of love, among them the white-facet
boy who was through"
The girl was given emergenc!
treatment at the Robert B. Greer
Hospital. Surgeons told her sh
would live.
But / want 10 die" she sobbed
turning her face 10 the wall.
Il cannot live without him.
But downstairs a white-faced DO!
waited-anxious for some word from
the girl with whom be was through.

DOLLAR DAY A SUCCESS
Hundreds of Shoppers Come to Put nam and Garry Away Merchandise

Dollar Day last Saturday saw one of the largest crowds of shoppers in the business section that Dollar Day ever drew to Putnam The whole surrounding country had been cir. cuIarized and a generous amount of space in the local newspapers gave full publicity to the event.
 The mereahnts had made careful preparations to handle the extra busi- ness and had put some attractive cf- fsrinEs on their shelves and counters. Both the storekeepers and buyers benefited by the day set apart as bargain day. Those coming to Put nam must have been impressed with the fact that Putnam merchants are alive to opportunities and that Put nam stores are better and more re- liable to trade in than large city stor- eg and mail order houses.

LOS ANGELES BACK
FROM PORTO RICO
Navy Dirigible Balky at Hangar
in Lakehurst, IL Landing
Attempts Failing.
By the Associated Press.

LAkEHURST. N. j.. May 1.-THE
Navy dirigibie Los Angeles returned
early yesterday from her pioneer flight
to Porto Rico. The ship was sighted
over the landing field at $40, but it
was three hours before she was
brought into the hangar
The lightness of the craft, resulting
from fuel consumption, combined
with the heavy, damp atmosphere to
make the landing more than usually
difficult. Twelve attempts to bring
the ship earthward failed before tho
great bag was under control of the
ground crew.
The trip to Porto Rico was de-
ciared complete success by Capt.
Steele, who was in command. Wealth.
er conditions were for the: most part
excellent, he said, although on Fri.
day night rain and heavy thunder.
storms were encountered of Florida
The Los Angeles is scheduled for n
short flight on Friday, May Is, ana
probably will encircle Philadelphia and
New York, Capt. Steele announced.
The journey to Porto Rico, the first
of any airship between the American
continent and the island. began
week ago, the ship leaving on May 2
at 10:45 am, and arriving at Maya
guez, Porto Rico, approximately 80
hours later. The return required 81
hours and 40 minutes, the ship taking
off from her tender in the harbor Of
Mayaguez at $50 o'clock Friday aft
ernOon.
