RUM RUNNER SUSPECT Slain IN
RACE PAL TELLS POLICE; GIVES
Up and BARES STORY OF Death
George Lewis Shot by Two
Men in Marmon Car West
OF City. He Says.
ANOTHER TO SURRENDER
Fatality Is Believed to Be
Outcome of HiiaCking
Attempt.

The bullet which killed George
Lewis, 26. Of 816 Union street, Tues
day night, was fired in a gun battle
during a race between two powerful
automobiles on the Rockville road.
thirty-flv miles west of Indianapo-
lis, it was disclosed today.
This disclosure came when George
McHenry, "a. until Wednesday resi-
dent of 231ie North jefferson ave-
nue., pal of Lewis. surrendered ct
police headquarters with his attor-
ney. Henry Winkler. after police
had sought him since few hours
after the shooting.
McHenry told his story to de-
tectiyes:
He, Lewis and a man known as
Babe" had gone to Clinton, Ind,
afternoon and were on their way
back early Tuesday evening, when
they caught up with a big, grey
mud covered Marmon sedan,
Race With Marmon
They started to race. The Mar
mon was getting the better Of the
argument and started to draw away
on an S curve. when the two men
in it suddenly opened fire on the
occupants of Lewis car
Lewis was riding in the rear seat.
After about five or six shots we're
fired by the Marmon driver and his
companion, the Marmon drew
ahead.
The McHenry noticed that Lewis
had slumped down in the back seat.
Babe" who was driving, stopped
the car. They examined Lewis, de-
cided he was seriously hurt, and
rushed on to city hospital here. --
Leave Car at Hospital
They parked the car. with Lewis
still in it, outside the hospital.
Babe" ran to a nearby house and
telephone the hospital that the car
with a wounded man in 1t was OUT
side.
Lewis died in the hospital at 2:30
Wednesday morning and the search
LOT MCt1EJIy NoS SIdl CSu.
Attorney Wnkler said that the
man known as Babe would sur
render to police Friday.
Meanwhile, Detective Roy Peats
and Alfred Schultz put McHenry in
a police car and went out ON the
Rockville road, in an effort to find
the spot where the shooting took
place.
McHenry, it was learned today, is
free under bonds totalling $4,000,
awaiting trial on cases in both fed
eral and criminal courts.
Police we're convinced that there
was more than a mere" race be-
tween the two big cars. Since Lewis
name frequently had been hooked
with rum running, they believe the
party in Lewis car attempted to
hi-jack" the pair in the Marmon
and got the worst of the battle.
Two Others Held
Police also are holding Holland
Gardner, %. and Marvin Gardner,
20. both of 1925 Lawton street. close
friends of Lewis, in the belief they
may be of assistance. The officers
still are searching for George
Woods. another associate Of Lewis
and McHenry.
Lewis funeral will be held at ..
m. Saturday with burial in Me-
mortal Park cemetery.

Everyday Psychology

Deja WI.

A reader submits the following
flashes and wants to know If they
indicate that there Is a streak Of genius
in him. He says, Instances of this
nature are constantly in my mind"
/. One day, Nothing in the papers
lately about Lindbergh! That evening
pick up the paper and read that he had
his shoulder X-rayed."
2. Another day, Amt that the limit!
Prince of Wales taking up knitting
Same evening, paper contains inter-
on the subject"
8. Another day, whats become Of
Amelia Earhart? Next morning paper
contains an article about her breaking
woman'S airplane speed record"
These flashes" which the reader de-
ScribeS are not flashes of genius. If
they are. the world is full Of geniuses.
Many people have these curious mental
experiences. They might properly be
called "backfireS" rther than flashes of
genius or premonitionS OF future events.
Psychologists have given the name
deja WI to these mental twists. The
term deja WI means seen before" But
the things that appear to have been
seen before were not seen before. They
are really falsiflcations Of memory.
They are false memories in the sense
that the one who has them gets the
present confused with the past. The
three cases cited are typical. The in
quirer merely associated his past knowl-
edge of Lindbergh, Amelia Earheart and
the Prince of Wales with the new in
formation about them. His past in
terestS came rushing to the front, as
1t were, with strange familiarity. And
then, and not till then, did he get the
flash" that this same thing had occur
red to him the day before.
These feelings of deja WI may in rare
cases refer to things about which the
experiencing person has no knowledge
whatever. He may 60 into room for
the first time and have feeling that
he has been there before.
It must have been nothing but q case
of deja vi that caused Plato to imagine
that he had lived before. Upon such
feelings he built up his philosophy of
"pre-existence of the soul"

Money Love"

When misers are caricatured they are
always depicted as mean, grabbed sour
faced, old men. In real life there are
as many money lovers among women,
and not all of them are old or unlovely
or unattractive.
Meanness and stingineSs with money
rohs it of all the pleasure it might at
ford. Women make laughing stocks of
themselves by exhibiting stingy traits
and mean tricks. The woman who goes
out with only q check in her purse, or
no small change for car fare, Is soon
known and summed.
Really nice women put O barrier De-
tween themselves and their friends with
their miserlineSs. They clearly demon
strate that their first love is for money,
and even friends know some limits to
tolerance.
Most pitiable of all women is she
who boards her money while her huS-
band spends freely. All of her life, In
stead of forcing him to be economical,
she deprives herself of things rightfully
hers. Then when an emergency comes
her savings are all that are available,
and she watches her lifelong boarding
seep away.
Often this type of woman will wear
shabby clothing and live with uncom-
Portable, obsolete furniture. Her chill
dren are only too glad to marry and
leave their unattractive home. Her hus-
band Is forever asking her why she
can't dress decently, or why she can't
wear nice clothes like other women.
She smiles wisely to herself. She
knows" what to do with her money.
Imagine how such a woman must feel
after living a starved life to find that
her sacrifices have merely resulted In
her friends despising her, her children
losing their love for her, and her hus-
band believing her to be cold and mer-
cenary. Yet one feels after all that
that Is her just desert.
Any woman who will set her love OF
money above all other loves deserves
to lose them. Marriages destined TO
be happy have been wrecked by money
love, and many women can never at
tract suitors because of the dollar signs
In their eyes. Many such women have
really fine characters exclusive Of that
one defect.

There is something about furniture
of modern design that appeals to us as
being particularly sturdy and just the
right thing for the boys room.
For example. the desk and chair
shown in the illustration is one which
any boy would consider it a Joy to have.
Above it might be placed a three-tier
bookshelf, on 1t plotting pad Tin a
bright color, of courSe), and the chair
seat might be covered with leather to
match the pad. The edges Of the
shelves might also be finished In the
same shade.
The desk and chair could be finished
in walnut or mahogany stain; or, II
preferred, they could be painted or en-
ameled in black, blue-green or Vene-
tian red with touch of silver along
she edges and on the hardware.
FOR the girl who has leaning to-
ward the modern in design, piece such
as this would make an ideal dressing
table. Over it might be placed mirror
with a modernistic frame, and on It a
pair of silver lamps with frosted glass
shades in a design to harmonic with
the mirror. Eggshell, brown and GOLD
or platinum gray combined with lime
green would make a good combination
for the piece II IL girls room.

To those adults who can't live with
out their coffee three times q day the
expectation that children are going to
be equally appreciative of 1t comes
readily. Out of this expectation springs
the very bad habit of offering the baby
tastes of coffee from mothers cup until
the child begins clamoring for a cup of
his own. All children like food from
the family table, because it is unusual
and sometimes forbidden. II we could
only serve bottles of cod liver oil on the
family table and put it clear out of the
child's reach and frown when he puts
his hands out for it we should soon
have him "howling his head of" for
some of it.
Out of this apparently trivial habit
Of Offering baby tastes of coffee crops
up a whole series of evils. Mrs. w. A..
r. Is only one of many mothers who
have voiced the following question: "Is
it injurious to give children coffee? NV
daughter Is 22 years old and has been
allowed tastes of coffee since babyhood
She is very fond of it sweetened and
with cream. Now she expects it after
her breakfast. Are we wrong to break
this habit"
Yes, to both. questions, but not be-
cause coffee Is dangerous or harmful in
itself, but because it takes the place of
more nouriShing and necessary food
which growing children must have and
offers very little in exchange.
Coffee contains very little nouriSh-
ment. All there Is in this drink in the
way Of nourishment is the cream and
sugar added to it. It has q stimulating
effect, which adults notice when they
had my coffee" or, eff 1 don't drink
coffee in the morning I have a head
ache until I do" If coffee has this
effect on an adult, who has been used
to 1t. through long years of indulgence,
how much more marked is the effect
on the small child, who reacts more vto-
lently to any Stimulant. Likewise, chill
dren don't need StimulantS; they need
food in the morning. They spring out
days activities with vim that is truly
appalling to their heavy-eyed parents.
Whv increase this by artificial means?
And we know that when a stimulant
loses its momentary effect there Is al
ways slump and the person feels lower
than ever.
One prime reason, then, why coffee
Is not the drink for children Is because
OF the very stimulant it contains.
No matter how good the child's break
Nst, it Is difficult for him to get all the
nourishment he needs without some
drink made primarily with milk. For
the older child this may be q whole
cup Of warm milk favored with cocoa
or cereal coffee. For the child who has
never had these fiavors added his cup
of plain milk is just as appetizing as if
it were all dressed uD with a new taste.
If he drinks coffee he won't be inter-
ested in another cup Of milk, so the
coffee drinking deprives the child of
the nourishment he should have and
offers him in place Of it what is prac-
tically a cup of favored water.

LIGHT MY WAY
BIZ REV. JOHN n. GUM.
Guarding Our Hearts.

''Keep thy heart with all diligence;
for out of 1t are the issues OF life."-
Prov, iv.23.
We speak of the heart as the seat
of emotion, the center Of our impulses,
the home Of our affections. And when
Solomon says Keep thy heart with all
diligence" he means that we are to keep
strict control over our emotions, i'm
pulses and affections. AS George Her
bert has it
"Gfve not thy llumors way;
God gave them to thee under lock and
key"
The heart has many inclinations and
desires which take no heed of any law
but their own qualification. If the
reinS are thrown loose on the necks
OF these untamed horses, they will drag
one to destruction. They are safe only
when held under bride and bit and by o
strong hand.
We all have the same kind of hearts,
the same desires and passions. These
are natural. The peril lies in allowing
them to run riot. It is never safe to
trust the guidance of life to them, or
anything but calm will, acting under
the guidance Of the divine will.
All noble, ethical teaching concurs
in thiS-that a man who seeks to be
right and do right must keep his heart
with all diligence" The phrase with
all diligence" is literally "above all
guarding" If a man is wise, he will
guard his heart more carefully than
any other possession.
