 NO PARKING PLACE

 Curb Distance Law

Tostifying in his own defense, Peter Gaspcrini, aged 20, of 1925 |Stanlcy street. told Judge filling in |police court this morning that there was not sufficient parking space for his automobile truck on Church street yesterday morning and as he had some lumber to deliver at S2 Church street. he felt justified in ! leaving the truck in the center of the street.

 ton and shortly after his arrival, Gasporni arrived. The officer told Gasperini 10 be more considcrate of Ithe rights of other drivers in the future, but Gasperini, according to the officer, insisted on arguing with him. Asked for his operators li- censc, Gdsporini could not produce It. so he was arrested.
 The officer testified that there was Ia parking space of % feet available. .Gasperini said his truck is 22 feet long and the lumber extended two feet beyond the end Of the truck, so he could not use 20 feet. He did not have his license with him be- cause he left it in "his other suit tho night previous. He produced it in court.
 Judge filling suspended judgment, but warned him that the law does not pormit the parking of automo- piles further than F inches from the curb and the fact that there was not room close to the curb does mot excuse the violation of the law. Gaspcrini drives q truck for the Swift < Epson Lumber Co.

It is not natural for children to be thin and scrawny. If they are well and healthy. they should be gaining weight right up to their twentieth year.
 Many children, however. with their young delicate digestive organs do not get from their daily food the vital ele- ments of life itself-the important vita mins and the organic salts of lime, iron and phosphorus.
 The son of George c. O'Brien Of Nah wah, N. J., was thin and pale and did not get enough nourishment from his food. In little over two months he gained eleven and one-half pounds and feels and looks one hundred per cent better. And what brought him back to sturdy strength was the new concentrated form of Cod Liver Extract known as McCoys Cod Liver oil Compound Tablets.

London Pays Dearly

fort caused the actual loss suffered by

ure at $5.000000 for one day and
this weekly observes, according to the
Literary Digest:
This may be an excessive estimate,
but there can be no doubt that 1t would
pay the nation 10 spend a great deal
of money to remedy the evil. espe
clally when we remember that even on
fogless days we allow sunlight of in
finite value to be intercepted by the
pail OF smoke which overhangs our
great towns.
THE climax of absurdlty Is reached
when we have to organize special sun

rays artificially generated, in order to
cure diseases caused by this unnatural
darkness. The classic instance Of
Pittsburgh proves that the evil can be
remedied once community Is really

A PLAY YOU MUST
NOT FAIL TO SEE

Next week, beginning January
18th, the Trent Theatre Stock Com
pany at Reade's Trent Theatre, Tren-
ton, will produce the most famous
of all rural dramas, Quincy Adams
Sawyer. In accordance with the
custom begun few years ago, the
Trent company selects each year as
the banner offering of their season a
revival of some outstanding rural
play. Last year the most successful
week of the company's season was
the production of "Way Down East.
This year with Quincy Adams Saw
yer" given in exact replica of the
far famed original, new attendance
records for the historic Trent are
practically assured next week from
the enormous appeal of this greatest
of all comedy dramatic favorites.
The story of Quincy Adams Saw
yer" for a beautiful blind girl is
probably too we'll known, and has
become too integral a part of our
national dramatic legend to need
REPETITION here. To the millions who
have seen it, and the countless num-
Der who have heard only its praises,
it must always be the most charm
ing memory of our American Thea
ire, particularly as represented by
our small town and rural districts.
As a novel, it was, and probably
still is, one of the most popular
and widely sold books of the CEN
fury.
The Trent company are particular
ly fitted for its production, inasmuch
as the majority of them have play
ed it at some time in the past, and
in one or two instances have scored
in it their greatest dramatic success
es. Among the unusual features of
the Trenton production will be the
inclusion of the famous husking bee
and the dancing of the quadrille on
the stage. Special scenery has been
designed, carrying out in exact detail
every feature of the original proper
ties, costumes, and settings; and pre-
serving the rich country atmosphere
of the rural districts.
Several well-know Broadway SC
tors have been brought on for the
week only, to complete the large
cast requirements of the plays. To
accommodate the expected influx from
the outlying districts the manage
ment have arranged to give spec
ial attention to mail and telephone
reservations, mailing the seats on
receipt of written order or hold
ing them until few hours of per-
Torrance time In addition to the
regular evening performances the
entire week of the 18th, there will
also be popular priced matinees on
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and
Saturday.
