ATTORNEY HAS
DIFFICULT TIME
GETTING HEARING

partner, yesterday, Attorney Harry

Heaven help anyone who heard
you," quoth the judge, "you may
be able to talk all right, but even
l can sing better than you"
Who said anything about sing

know.
"Well if this is your day to spring
riddles, get out some place else, I'M
busy was the judges dictum.
Abashed, but not squelched, Harry
went across the hall to Utley and

his greeting to the senior member
of the firm. "Tell it to Lee" said
Utley, che s the ASK me another ,

So Harry went to Lee Nuffer, said
his little piece and received in re-
turn, "Who the heck cares about

Eyes, well you II be lower than that
if you don't pull out of here. I'm
interested in singing all right, but

Beginning to feel that he was not
being appreciated by the Republicans
the soloist strolled to the office of
the towns leading Democrat. "Jim,

Having exhausted the quota of
brother attorneys in the building
Harry was puzzled for moment
but suddenly remembered that the
chief of police is confined to his
bed with slight illness. Hopping
into his car the attorney drove out
to the chiefs house. "Sterling, l

words. Business of groaning from
the chief. "Say, I never knew it

"Lord no. said the chief, "the

DON'T MEAN THE SAME

Carping critics of the language
in insurance policies have forced
Attorney General John H. Dunbar
to decide whether there is any diff
ference between vacant and unoc-
cupied houses. When the court de-
cisions were run down it was dis
covered there is difference in
law as well as in fact. A vacant
house is barren of inanimate OBJ
jects; one that is unoccupied con-
tains no animate things or per-
sons. If the furniture, had been
moved out yet a person roamed
through the empty rooms the house
would be vacant though occupied.
But if it merely happened the FAM
lily was away on vacation and the
furniture had been left behind the
house would not be vacant though
is was unoccupied. So it is neces-
sary to use the two words to con-
vey different meanings or condi-
tions. sE t5... ,@s

OBSERVATIONS
POLITICALLY
Reporter at Olympia gives
Views on Events at
State Capital
(By Richard Hamilton)

Political problems, events and
activities promise to dominate 1928
in Washington. The coming year
will, of course, bring its share of
industrial, economic and social
problems and developments, but,
above all, 1928 will essentially be
an important political year.
So many political responsibilities
and obligations are confronting the
voters that it seems advisable for
the people, republicans, democrats
or independents, to give some time
and thought to the study of the
current disputes, quarrels and i'm
pending issues. This is especially
true in relation to the state gov
eminent. Olympia is upset, has
been and will continue to be, and
the responsibility of Strengthening
out the tangle will be up to the
