But people are spending less freely than

afford much of it, ut that price.

it's harder work to sell ears, partly thru

Reading "Trub's Dia1y"?

WHAT has such universal appeal as a
w dog story, especially about a mutt
dog? Hardly thing.
John Taintor Foote's "Trub's Diary"
running in The Star, proves this. Every
body is reading it. men, women and chill
dren. Just a simple story about dog.
Nothing particularly brilliant; no intrigu-
ing sex stuff; no involved plot.
Why do we all love dogs? Gosh knows
but we do. A man will fight for a mis-
treated dog most any day. And a dog
that's treated right will return the com
pliment-and frequently does.
If you haven't read ''Trub's Diary"
you're missing a treat.

 DRY LAW SEEN
Wheeler Thinks Andrews Will
 Do the Job We'll

Washington. April 2.-Conccntra- ton of the activities of the prohibit ton enforcement units of the treas- ury under Assistant Secretary An drews should result in more effec- tive enforcement of the Eolstead act in the view Of Wayne B. Wheel CT. general counsel for the anti saloon league, who called on Presi- dent Coolidge at the White House.
 Mir. Wheeler said much better results could be obtained by greater cooperation between government departments. He added that each department should immediately turn over 10 the proper agency all information it obtained regarding dry law violations.
 The view was expressed by Wheeler that the placing of enforcement un- der Andrews would in no way cur tail the powers of Prohibition Con- missioner Haynes. but would en- able the commissioner to more effectively administer his office.
 Wheeler said there was pressing need for building up a more eff cient force of prohibition agents and that the government also must take more effective steps to prevent the diversion Into bootleg channels of approximately six million gallons of industrial alcohol annually.

HUMAN BONES ARE
 FOUND IN HEAP
Scotland Yard Now Faces a
 Battling Mystery
'Jy The Associated Press.


 London, April 2.-Scotland Yard today added mystery to q strange death story that is engaging British crime experts. Detectives rummag- ing in a gloomy old Bloomsbury mansion built over graveyard, in which were found recently the bodies of Granville Cook, aged 50, a poet and inventor. and Selwyn Foster. aged 2l. son of wealthy family. found a number of human bones.
 The mansion, which Cooke used ostensibly in connection with en- gineering experiments, was formerly a school Of anatomy. operated by Cooke's father, a surgeon. The po- lice say that the bones found today may have been left over from the days of the anatomy school, but the officers wrapped them up carefully for expert examination by Sir Der nard Salisbury, the home office pathologist.
 The deaths Of Cooke and Foster have baffled the police. While 1t seems to establish that Cooke died of gas poisoning, Foster apparently died several hours earlier. Cooke was known as a brilliant engineer and inventor. He was graduated from Bonn university, and has per fected several inventions which brought in substantial royalties. He also wrote a number of poems. one
 of which was accepted by Queen Alexandra. Both he and Foster, i however, had criminal records and the police had been watching Cooke's Wovements for some time
 before the mysterious deaths oc- cured.
 Scotland Yard agents also are l investigating a report that Cooke
 promised two girls he would teach
 them stenography at his Bloomsbury
 establishment, although the authori-
 ties say it is known that he knew
 nothing of stenography.
