the storm drifted on the blue horizon

lutely, her lips smiling: 'Pm happy"
But she could no longer see the sky
because Of tears rushing to her eyes.
Then Ramon came. She kept her

 The vast majority Of the shop ,fters could afford 10 pay for the things they steal --- often have the money In their purses at the time" |"
 A contrary opinion was ey- pressed by Chief Clerk Frank Smith of the court Of special ses- sion, where during 1925. l,3Ss shop-llfter cases were tried with 1915 convictions.
 Many women steal because they are tempted by something they see and want, possibly need, and have not the money for them in their pinched little weekly budgets" he said
