ENTERTAINED
BY KIWANIANs

Members of the high school grad
uating class were honor guests OF
the Kiwanis club at its regular
weekly luncheon held yesterday at
the Parish house.
The entertaining OF the senior
class by the KiWanians is an an
nual custom. Almost the entire per-

the use he puts his success and
failure" A. G.. Crouch, vice presl-
dent of the club, told the students.
'1he fact of failure is often the
very basis OF success"
''As Jesus of Nazareth hung upon
the cross his life appeared as a
failure to the folk OF his day, yet in
that failure lay the most colossal
success OF history; the foundation
of a new philosophy OF life, a
philosophy OF love, service and i'm
mortality"

Caught on the Wing

G.. c., Williams, bank eynploye: II
believe Mrs. Ruth Snyder should be
punished. She is evidently as guilty
as Gray, but do not think she
should suffer the death penalty,
% 6e s,eif
Harry j. Harrington, SIN elter
worker. "I say that Mrs. Ruth Snyder
should be put to death if Gray is
executed It is not right that women
should be shielded before the Jaw
because Of their sex. She is equally
as guilty as he and 7 see no reason
why she should escape with her life
if Gray pays the death penalty"
Percival S. Williamson, Long
Beach, Calf: 81 think the creates
need of Douglas is better street lights
at night. I arrived mere at night
and was astonished to find myself
ill., the darkness as soon as I step
ped outside the depot. The residence
districts, especially, should be better
lighted. 1t has long been known
that light is one Of the best means
of advertising. Many towns and
cities have greatly increased their
wealth and population by expenditure
OF few thousand dollars on better
lighting systems"
Ralph H. johnson, Phoenix: 81
was surprised when Y arrived IN
town yesterday to learn that the
open air swimming pool in Douglas
has ho5 yet opened. Pools in the
Salt river valley have been open and
well patronized Tor about month
! can understand, though, why the
local pool has not YET been opened,
since 1 have heard an account OF
recent weather conditions. Sand
storms are not nice, but Douglas is
fortunate is not being subject to ex-
tremely hot weather"
H A. Wimberley: "Twenty years
ago today came to Douglas to live
a year. After that year was ur
found that I couldn't live any place
else but Douglas. I have seen lots
of ups and downs in that time but
have never seen an earthquake, n

CONSTIPATION WRECKS CHARM
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN will bring
prompt, sure, permanent relief
guaranteed!

it. Don't let it get in its work of
destruction.
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is guar

Eat two tablespoonfuls daily-in
chronic cases, with every meal.
Doctors recommend Kellogg's be-
cause it is 1000 bran--10Ogo
effective.

Superstitious Will
Shun Cats, Ladders
On Friday, the 18th

The SuperstitiouS, those de-
voutly believing in the potency
of signs, omens and good luck
charms today will be even more
Superstitious and more careful
than usual not to transgreSS
, any of the rules supposed to
. bring bad luck to those disre-
garding them. Today the black
. cats will be Stunned with even
more fear than ever by those
believing in evil omens. And
many a tabby is in for a race
today when she attempts to
cross the path Of q member OF
the superstitious clan.
Weddings today will be few.
Many people will defer starting
on that business trip or the
long -looked-f for vacation in the
hills. Only the more resolute
those totally oblivious to signs
and superstition-Will embark
on new enterprises today. Some
of the, more daring may choose
this day, from many others, on
which to defy Old Lady Bad
Luck and all her tribe of trouble
makers. But these will be
scarce, indeed. Even those who
do not habitually shy from
black cats, avoid walking under
ladders, opening umbrellas in
the house and the other time
worn alleged harbingers Of bad.
luck will be more careful today.
For today is Friday the thir-
teenth.
