ALL,
OTTODOES
OWN A DOG
Boy Who Obtained So Ken
mel Loan Hid Pet From
Family.

BIZ United Press
WEST ORANGE, N. j., March 2.
Its time every one was getting
straight on the matter of Otto
Szant's dog. because Otto is in the
way of becoming a big business man
and his dog is a factor in the busi-
ness.
Otto is the boy who last week
hoated a loan of So on initiative and
personality as security, at the West
Orange Trust Company here. The
loan was to be added to SO he already
had and the total invested in a dog
house.
Then along came some of Otto's
friends and his father and announced
that there was something wrong
Otto had no dog.
But Otto, like good business mar
kept his counsel. Only today did he
reveal the truth.
Hidden From Family
Otto, it seems. did have a dog. but
not all the family or family friends
knew about it, because the family OBJ
jected to dogs. So it was Otto's plan
to keep the dog at the home of a
friend until he could finance the pur-
chase of doghouse. Then he would
bring it home again.
That's why some folks said Otto
had no dog.
But in the meantime more of
Otto's plans have unfolded. He has
become the head of delivery system
for a chain of grocery stores-three
in number.
With Adam Hess, 9. and Chester
Forsythe, 10, as associates, and their
dogs as motive power, they have
contracted to do delivering for stores
in the neighborhood, and Otto's dog
is going to play an important part
in the business.
His Finances
So Otto now is on his way to high
position in the business world and
he starts his career with assets and
obligations as follows:
Assets--One dog; one.third interest
in contract to deliver groceries for
three neighborhood stores; order for
one dog house. delivery to be made
within one week; one small, red
wagon and dog harness.
Liabilities-Note for 50 payable to
West Orange Trust Company in
sixty days.
Otto's father has notified the
trust company that this is Otto's
business and that Otto must be
looked to to care for his own note.

Twins Newest Addition to
Happy HorsIey Family
No Dull Moments.

The bright.eyed, happy mother Of
eighteen childreni
That's Mrs. Harry Horsley, 5640
Guilford Ave, whose newest addi-
ton to what probably is the largest
family in Indiana, is twin girls,
Margery and Mildred, four months
old.
Thirteen Living
Thirteen of the children are living.
But it's not an ,'nlucky number" I"
laughed their mother. Their ages
ranges from the four-months-old
twins to a 21-year.old son. They
are, without exception, bright, good
looking youngsters, in excellent
health. With the exception of one
older son, all live at home.
Mrs. Horsley. who was married at
IA, was mother at Is and is now
81. Her husband, brick contractor,
successful in business for himself, is
seven years her senior. Margery
and Mildred are the only twins in
the Horsley home. Weighing only
four pounds apiece at birth, and be-
ing kept in an incubator at the
Methodist Hospital for time, they
now tip the scales at fourteen
pounds. Margery has blue eyes and
Mildred brown, so Identification is
not difficult.
All Love Babies
"Their father is crazy about
them" remarked the mother. I'VE
all are," chimed in Irene, 10, a high
school student.
Eyes / believe we all appreciate
them more than we did the older
children" Mrs. Horsley remarked,
although there's absolutely nothing
sweeter than a baby. A big family
is wonderful-it keeps you young"
Trouble? Work? Oh yes, a big
family's that, of course" Mrs.
Horsley admitted. ''but every
minute of life is lively and interest
ing" Nobody's dull or sad or lone
ly in this household, and five of the
children, who were present when
their mother said this, smiled quick
assent.
Seven of the Horsley children go
to the Broad Ripple school, two to
high school. and two boys are en-
ployed. Their names and ages are;
Fred, 81; Wilfred, II; Alfred 16i
Irene. Is: Herman, IA; Robert, 49,
James, IL; Joseph, 9; Eunice. s.
Olive, 4; Virginia, 8, and the twins.

1t was the concensus OF opinion
,at the committee meeting this morn
ing that statute of 1897, which had
been attacked in some quarters,
does give the Legislature the right
to impeach judge and does set up
machinery with which to conduct an
impeachment trial.
1t was felt by most committee
members that the State should keep
its courts upon a high plane and
that they want once and for all to
determine exactly the question of
whether the present law sets up ade-
quate machinery for the removal Of
judges who betray public trust.
Six prosecutors"
The committee, it is understood.
favors the recommendation that the
House appoint board of managers
Of three Democrats and three Re
publicans from the House to con-
duct the impeachment trial in the
Senate in order that the proceed
ings may be nonpartisan.
Committeeman present this morn
ing were: Chairman J. Glenn Harris,
Edward z. Eikenbary, Fabius Gwin,
David H. Byers, Russell w. Smith,
Lawrence E. Carlson, DELPHI McKes-
son, Charles La Toilette and William
Henry Harrison.
Revise Resolution
Harris said the resolution for i'm
peachment of Judge Dearth. in
troduced by Representative John w.
Scott, of Gary. in presenting
petitions of Muncie citizens for the
impeachment, was being slightly re.
vised and would be signed by the
committee members at noon.
He indicated the report recon-
mending impeachment of Judge
Dearth would probably be sub
mitted to the House this afternoon.
"The evidence submitted to the
committe by Muncie citizens at a
public hearing by the committee
Monday night, with supplementary
evidence gathered by the commit
tee, warrants impeachment pro-
ceedings against Judge Dearth I'm
the opinion of members of Judici'
