A PEN PICTURE.

When Governor E. Lee Trinkle had
completed his stirring, optimist C ap-
peal at the First Baptist Church last
Sunday afternoon, after an introduc-
ton. a lady of slender build arose
and with her another of the same
type. She was about five feet eight
inches in he ght, of modest bearing,
features as regular as those chiselled
by a Grecian sculptor, which is to
say ihat sL, is person of surpass
beauty. Her companion preceded her
to the piano and as she sat down and
fingered the keys of the instrument,
the LADY Nolin'st drew the bow across
the strings and in q moment had
tuned IN with the piano.

Facing Sentence
For Embezzlement
ATTEMPTS to End Life

Lowell, Mass, Sept. 14-(AP)--
Just before he was to have appeared
in federal court for sentence as an
embezzler of bank funds, j. Harry
Boardman, former cashier of the Old
Lowell National Bank, attempted to
commit suicide by shooting at his
home here today. Tonight physl-
clans said he was in a critical con-
dition with little chance for life.
Boardnian, who is so years old,
was arrested July 2, 1924, after a
National Bank examiners audit OF
the cashiers accounts showed a
shortage Of more than $4,000. He
was indicted by the federal grand
jury charged with unlawfully mis-
applying moneys. credits and funds
of the Old Lowell National Bank and
converting them to his own use.
Later he was called before the
grand jury as a witness in other
matters arising out of the charges
against him, and although other in
dictments were returned they later
were mol pressed. When arraigned
in federal district court Boardman
pleaded guilty, but by agreement be-
tween the United States attorney and
his counsel sentence was deferred
while the grand jury investigated
certain other angles OF the case.
Boardman has been out on bail since
his arraignment.

More Control Sought
BY Indiana Republicans

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 14-(AP)-
Indiana, which has a reputation as
the birthplace of much of the coun-
trys political strategy, has contrib
uted what its Republican leaders con-
slider a new advance in politics. The
Republican state committee has an
nounced that hence forth the party
will aim definitely and actively at
control Of municipal government. as
well as at control of the larger politi-
cal units of the state.
With municipal elections slated for
November in several hundred In
diana towns and cities, the Republi-
can party has offered the services of
speakers or organizers to local or
CARNATIONS desiring them.
While affirming it's unwillingness to
interfere in local elections when they
hinge entirely on local issues, or to
attempt to conduct municipal cam
paigns on the basis of political issues
which affect state or national cam
paigns, the Republican state commit
tee sets forth several reasons why
control of municipal governments is
properly a goal of organized political
parties.
The national administrations ad-
vocacy of economy in government
also a plank in the platform of the
Republican state administration in
Indiana, may with propriety be car
rled clear to the smallest unit Of the
government, the committee believes;
and because emphasis on tax reduc-
ton can bear greater fruit in the
municipality, which consumes so pre-
ponderant share of the tax total
| the party sees virtue in carving the
same principles into effect in local
governments.

The making Of lead-covered cable
for the nations telephone system
is a highly important job, and one
a.hat must 60 on continuously SO
that telephone development will
not be interrupted. Last year
alone, enough copper wire 10 reach
TO the moon and back twenty-five
times was manufactured into lead
covered cable by the Western
Electric Company which has a
great factory at Chicago and an
other one at Kearney, n. J., near
! New York, where cable is made.
The first and one of the most
ingenious processes is that of in
sulating copper wire with paper.
This is done by insulating ma
chimes which wrap paper tape
around the wire in the form of a
continuous helix, overlapping at
the edges. These machines put on
about 2,400 wraps or turns in a
minute. Each wire must be COW
cred with paper throughout its en-
tire length so that it cannot touch
any other wire in the cable. If
