Speed and More Speed Is Roller Girls Slogan

E7OLLER skating'S either a

~ of. us, but for Miss Harriet

employe of the Western Union, it's
the days work.
She skates round and round
the companys operating room on
the ninth floor of the Guarantee
Bldg, carrying thousands OF mes
sages from one desk to another.
Gracefully she weaves her way in
and out among the busy workers,
and turns her corners with finish.
I'm our business seconds. rather
than minutes, count" said G. w.
Steinhauer, superintendent. "Ev-
cry second is valuable"
That's why the Western Union
put its employees on roller skates.
And within four years, the skaters
have had only two spills, a record
to be envied by the rink.

Mcnamara, land it Goes not tire

When you hand your message
over the counter of the main Office

center in a pneumatic tubs. Miss
Mcnamara, or one of her fellow
skaters, picks it up on her rollers,
and carries 1t to the proper trunk

REVENGE CASE
Miriam Wright Asks That
Rival Be Deported.

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON. Oct. 13.-The
labor department immigration
board of review tomorrow will take
up a woman's plea for revenge on
another woman, to see if the law is
on the side of revenge.
The plea is that of Miriam Lloyd
Wright, wife of the famous
architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, for
deportation of Olga Milanoff
Nuremberg, mother of a child by
Wright. Complications of the
triangle have attracted national at
tention, especially Wright's action
in ousting his wife from his home
at Spring Green, Wis.
Olga Milanoff was arrested last
March on a deportation warrant,
while living with Wright in New
York, and Mrs. Wright has pro-
tested against continuance of the
case.
The woman, known as dancer,
gave Montenegro as her home, on
her arrival in 1924. Wright cannot
marry her and make her a citizen
until he succeeds in obtaining a
final divorce from Mrs. Wright. 1t
was his divorce suit that led Mrs.
Wright to ask for deportation Of
Olga Milanoff.

ANDERSON, Ind, Oct. 1'.-Miss
Mabel Millspaugh, a stenographe1
at the ls-Standard plant here
today has check for $4,000, first
prize in the Coca-Cola Company's
recent advertising contest. The check
was presented at a banquet in her
honor at the Grand Hotel, by R. C.
Tresder of Chicago, VICE president
of the Coca-Cola Company. A per-
sonal letter from r. M. Woodruff
president of the company and donor
of the $4,000, which accompanied
the check, was read to those as
sembled by Miss Millspaugh, who
showed remarkable poise and
surprising calmness in view of "the
thrill that comes once in lifetime
that she must have been ex-
periencing.
A week ago Miss Millspaugh
sought a mortgage of $279 on the
family home to meet the expense
of making repairs. Today she has
nearly forty times the amount Of
the loan sought. She plans to put
most of the $4,000 in a savings &C
count. A trip to California is one
of the pleasures planned for the flu
ture. None will be spent for an
automobile or "a lot of clothes,
Miss Millspaugh says. She intends
to divide the prize half and hall

helped her in winning.

DIARY TO BE WRITTEN
Former Indiana Woman to
Garry Left Hind Foot of
Graveyard Rabbit.

BU Emitted Press
OLD ORCHARD, Maine, Oct. 10.
Another postponement of Mrs.
Frances Wilson Grayson's projected
flight to Copenhagen, Denmark, was
necessitated this morning by ad-
verse weather.
The Dawn, amphibian plane of
the former Muncie, Ind.. woman,
will not take off until late today,
at the earliest, and perhaps not I'M
til later this week, it was an
nounced.
Call letters WMU have been as
signed the radio set in The Dawn
by the United States Department
of Commerce. Navigator Colds
borough will be at the key of the
set during the first fifteen minutes
of each hour throughout the flight,
except for the first two hours,
when he will be busy LAYING the
course. The set has two wave
lengths, $50 and $50 meters.
A corps of mechanics have over
hauled the plane since it arrived
here. Hull and wings of the ship
have been cleansed of oil and dirt.
The interior has been polished and
all instruments have been checked
and corrected.
Mrs. Grayson plans to write the
story of the flight as it progresses
in a diary she will take with her
expressly for that purpose.
AS a token of good luck, Mrs.
Grayson will take with her the left
hind legs of rabbit said to have
been shot ten years ago in a grave
yard at midnight in the dark of the
moon by a one-eyed Negro.
Mrs. Wendell H. Boyd of Portland,
Maine, presented the rabbits foot
to Mrs. Grayson yesterday.
Loaded with 859 gallons of gaso-
line and the engines pronounced
in perfect shape, the Sikorsky plane
stood on the beach here while
Goldsborough and Pilot Wilmer
Stultz consulted weather maps and
charts of the north Atlantic.

vice. 1t is studying the plans of
other citizens. The pedestrian
who daily lodges, however, may
out of the stress of his many
narroy escapes, have figured out a
plan which would be just the
thing.
So, The Times has thrown open
its columns for meritorious sug-
gestions. Write your solution for
the pedestrian traffic problem and
mail it to the Traffic Editor of
The Times. Letters with good
ideas will be printed. All letters
will be passed along to the board

busy and gradually recovering from
the effects of the World War;" de-
clared Purnell in a interview with
the United Press today. However"
he added, Germany, France and
Italy seem looking forward, almost
eagerly toward another war. That
has been their principal business for
centuries and they can't seem to get
out of the habit"
France Is Poor
Purnell, who made a tour of Eur
ope after the close of the American
Legion convention at Paris, sum-
married his observation as follows:
THE French government is poor
but individual Frenchmen have
amassed vast fortunes through busi-
ness fluctuations during and since
the World War. Everybody in
France is hard at work. There are
more women in the fields than men,
though, due to the terrific casualties
that country sustained.
Switzerland is the most prosper
out and cleanest country 1 saw. It
wisely stayed out of the war and
prof1ted hugely by neutrality.
Germany Advances
ITALY seems the least prosperous,
due to the fact that the land is
poorer and less tillable than in other
countries. Then, too, Italy is fairly
alive with soldiers who necessarily
continue great drain upon its re-.
sources. Nevertheless, Mussolini is
doing a great work, and seems to be
the man of the hour. His iron hand
ed methods, while repugnant to mod
ern conception of democracy, have
succeeded in holding tottering ma
ton together and will in the end re-
store it to its former place among
the nations of the earth.
Germany is making more rapid
strides than any other European
country toward reconstruction, and
though smarting under its great
load of debt, and the shame of de-
feat. its people are saying little and
saving much wood.

In Detroit, with million or so
Flivvers and Chevies fitting
around, we recognized the pedes-
TRANS rights years ago and pro-
vided that at the busy corners
street cars and automobiles make
no turns at the time when
pedestrians are crossing.
Pedestrians cross with the
traffic stream. Automobiles do
not turn until they get the stop
sign and then turn into the NOV
ing traffic stream. On many i'm
portant corners, turns are not
permitted. Thus there is a
