it happens that February has the ex-

And then. of course, there's the
tradition that women shall have the
right to propose marriage to any
man upon whom they may look with
favor during leap year, and there's
a host of interesting facts connected
with that, too. If you wish to know

HIGH COURT CASE
SUPREME COURT .REVERSES
THE ORDER OF THE ST.
LOUIS COUNTY DISTRICT
COURT REMOVING COMMITS
SIONER PENTTILA OF VIR-
GINA.

"A three to two majority of the
state supreme court Monday .reyers
ed an order of the St. Louis county
district court removing Charles
Penttila, of Virginia, Minnesota, as
member of the St. Louis county
board of commissioners and declar-
ing the Office vacant.
Justice Dibell and Stone dissent
ed from the majority opinion which
set aside the decision of Judge
Bert Fessler, of Duluth, in which he
held that Penttila was guilty of
violating the corrupt practises act
in the campaign prior to the cleo
ton, November 2, 1926.
The opinion holds that the de-
PENDANT was deprived of his consti-
tutional rights against self-discrim-
nation in respects to two charges
made against him of failing to
make and file the financial state
ment of election expenses required
under the law.
AS result Penttila will be given
new trial.
Penttila was charged in a petit
ton brought by group of taxpay-
ers with having spent more than
one-third of the amount the salary
of the Office would have paid during
the first year and with having prom
lsed public jobs to voters.
Seven material violations of the
cOrrupt nractises AFT yaro found b,,
the trial court in ousting Penttila
from office. In reversing Judge
Fessler's denial of the plea for a
new trial, the high court holds that
evidence in the case sustained the
trial courts findings that Penttila
violated the corrupt practises act.
However, it holds as error the find
ings of the trial court that insist
ence of the defendant not to testi-
fy tended to show guilt and served
as an element of proof against him.
