TN time the obliging and observing solicitor

confidentialIy, of course to his many customers
some interesting facts relative to the Maloney
menage.
The butcher boy told how day Honey
bunch had shown him their medicine cabinet
and in its far-fiung bottle line was every rem
edy conceivable for juvenile ills. She ex-
planned that she and Spike were taking the best
care possible of their beloved Marmaduke, and
that If ever surgeon advised that he undergo
an operation for something she just knew that
she would die, die die, and that Spike would
die, die, die, too.
Both Of them the reporter declared, thought
the bambino brilliant, beautiful, cute, cunning
and perfect physically. "I swear" admired
Spike, you'd think the kid was going to De
a contortionist, he's SO supple and clever. Why.
honest, I've seen him put his big toe in his
mouth and that's more than can do"
Then the butcher boy narrated with relish
the difference Of opinions between the parents
regarding their offsprings future. Honey
bunch, he said, some days would be in the liv-
ing room playing and singing all the popular
ballads to Marmaduke, who would sit on the
rug curiously listening to the solos of his
lovely mamma.
Then the ambitious parent would dance mer-
rily around, as she explained Ito instin the
spirit of Terpsichore" in the child. She said
she believed in training him early; she was pos
itive her baby would be the supreme vaude-
vile artist of his day.
AS for Spike, he watched all such behavior
with sour countenance, and whenever oppor-
tunity afforded he took his innings with his
son. The butcher boy stated that often he saw
or overheard the father lecturing to the wide
eyed baby on the difficult art of the left hook

But Spike Maloney, the retired pugilist, and
his wife Honeybuncf, a former actress, seemed
content with parenthood by proxy. In his bill

Prisoners Song" and, as all his cronies knew,
that meant he was as happy as clam at high

fond parent gave the kid real rubdowns, fexed
his biceps and actually taught him to hit him
on the nose with chubby fist.
Further, he Selemnly averred, one day he
had seen Spike trying to coax the baby to chew

was eating some real he-man'S food. Luckily,

Material To Be Copied
For Garcia Files

AUSTIN, July ga plan worked

brary to photostat all existing ma
terial in Mexico relating to the
early history Of Texas has been put
under way by Carlos z. Castaneda.
Latin-American librarian, who mas
Just returned from a months tour
81 Northern Mexico, where he made
ARRANGEMENTS for the copying OF
valuable material for the Garcia
Library.
1t is estimated that about three
years work will be necessary to COL
lect all the wanted material IN
Mexico, but this estimate may have
to be extended. Mr.. Castaneda's trip
took in three states, TamaulipaS,
Nuevo Leon and Coahuila.
In Brownsville, Mr.. Castaneda
collected data on the early history
of the Lower Rio Grande Valley.
From there he went to Monterrey
and made a preliminary survey Of
documentary material in the State
and city archives. In Monterrey,
Mr.. Castaneda found considerable
material dealing with the early MS
tory of Texas.
In Monclova, Castaneda visited
the descendants of the Ramon fam
lily, one Of the first explorers Of
Texas, and came in contact with
an unpublished history and several
valuable maps and charts. All ma
terialS for which arrangements
were made this summer will be
photostated and received in the
Garcia Library within the coming
year.

Shipments During First Half
Of Year Far Surpass Same
Record Fer 1928
Especial to The Herald)

DAYTON, Ohio, July 22.-The
best half year period in the history
Of the Frigidaire corporation was
enjoyed during the first six months
Of 1929 with increases in shipments

ing from 81 per cent to IL per
cent above those of the same period
of 1923, it was announced here to-
day.
Shipments Of household electric
refrigerators showed the greatest
increase with a gain of liz per cent
over those for the same perod of
1923. Electric water cooler ship
ments amounted to 80 per cent
above those for the corresponding
period Of last year.
Each successive month saw &C.
ords of the preceding month sur
passed. Production was increased
early in the spring when the I'M
precedented flood CT orders poured
into Dayton and soon the factories
were operating 20 per cent above
their normal rated capacity.
Mays outstanding record Of units
installed fell before that Of June.
The increase is figured at 1863 per
cent. Every record on the books Of
this General Motors subsidiary

frigerators we're placed on the mar
ket at the lowest prices in Frigid-

So, who shot it out with Chief Of
Police King Reed before dawn yes

Reed was wounded seriously. and,
although a cab driver was said to
have been nearby when the guns
suddenly roared, information given
but by officers indicated that after
talking with him they still had no
definite theory to offer.
The original hypothesis was that
Reed had issued ar order that I'M

had met Holcombe. who was accom-
panied by a dog on his rounds, that
they had quarreled and drawn guns

Another national trend is the slow

the negro woman. While it was

had gone into machine operating.
Field workers found one negro re-

factory experience, such women
successfully seek and hold jobs. Of
