Ocean View

Heartiest greetings from Califor-
mia to the friends and schoolmates of
yester year, assembled at Ocean
View and Bethany Beach for Home
Coming:-It is with a keen sense Of
regret that 1 employ this medium of
greeting my old friends, but 1 trust
it may be accepted as no less sin
cere, because of the thousands of
miles that make it physical impos-
sible for me to extend my greeting
in person. Since enjoying the pleas
ure of being present at a Home
Coming have visited every State in
the United States as well as much
of Canada and Mexico, and while
have enjoyed my travels very much
indeed, it is with qualification that
can sincerely say to you that I am
at this time firmly convinced there
is only one Ocean View, only one
Bethany Beach, and as 1 write 1 find
myself wondering how many of
those who enjoyed past Home Com
ings shall be absent this year, how
many have answered the roll call
for the final Home Coming? In my
vocation of psychiatric nursing 1
have noted the predominant ambi-
ton of all my patients is to "go
home," Notwithstanding the fact that
many have no home to go to; this
would seem to indicate that the de-
sire to go home is entirely human
and even though I am located in
this wonderful place in the midst of
wonderful palm trees, with oranges,
lemons, apricots, almonds, figs,
olives growing with in hands reach,
where geraniums grow wild and as
high as mans head, where poin-
settas grow on the hillside, still it
is not home" and as home coming
time as know it, approaches 1 find
myself wanting to go home, back to
the scenes and the friends of my
childhood-back to the one dear sis
ter, Mrs. VIM. Belts, that is left of |
all my family, to be present this year
at home coming" However, as this !
can not be this year I would have
those that are fortunate enough 10 |
be present know that from far away |
California comes hearty and sin
cere greeting, God bless you all.

DOUBLE TRAGEDY

NEW YORK.-The bodies of Mar Saret Lawrence, noted actress and Louis Bennison, well known DOT trayer of western roles on the stage and screen, were found dead in her penthouse apartment on roof of 34 East 51st street. just off Park Avenue. Each had been shot through the left breast once and police said both shots probably had been fired by Bennison who was found propped against bed in which Miss Lawrence lay. There was little to explain the tragedy in the lives ot the two who had played together on stage and screen and who were known to be in love. Some inklinR of what might have occurred wak contained in liquor bottles anC glasses littering the laxuriously furnished apartment, and that Ben nison had a suicide complex" after periods of drinking. There was also story told by Mrs. Gertrude Chalair, a friend. She said she visited the couple last Wednesday and tha
 Bennison came into the apartmen
 waving a revolver and declared
 "who will finish us both?" Two notes left by the couple did little to explain the motive if there wa. . motive. One message was in tho hand writing of Miss Lawrence and said, "The Sunset has a heart, lool. for us soon." The second note wa from Bennison. It asked that frienG at the Lambs Club be notified.

B0RAH AND BR0OKHART IN OPEN REVOLT, RESULT
 REJECTION FARM BILL

WASHINGTON. June 1S.-Sena- tors Borah and Brookhart, both ardent supporters and campaigners for President Hoover last tall. were in open revolt in the Senate today as the result of the action of that body yesterday in rejecting the Farm Bill and the announcement today by Senator Watson, RepuD- hcan Senate leader, that a general revision of the taritf is inevitable.
 Brookhart, in a speech assailing the opposition to the export debenI- ure plan in the Farm Relief Bill, urged the selection of a Progressive candidate for the Presidency, and the formation Of an active Progress sive party unless the debenture proposition is approved by the Ad- ministration.

lefthand side is the one where the slain Mcleod brothers took out $3,00O worth of gold dust before they were killed.
 At the creek, the prospectors found evidence that the Mcleod brothers had really been there, and aditional signs that a party of white men had come in from the Yukon side. There was an old sluiee box, holes where gravel had been dug out to be washed. A rotting cache was also found, piled high with rusted shovels and Yukon stoves and other equipment. Under a tree a short distance away, ne party found a rotten moosehide bag containing 45-90 cartridges. Mes sages were carved on the spruce, saying that the party had come in from Dawson City, but no further trace of the prospectors was over found.
 On duOLuGI lIGS l1C PANoPCShOAS found a message carved by the Mo- Leod brothers in 1904, whereas the Yukon party bore the date of 1912.
 One can go up as far as the first cascades in canoe powered with a seven-horsepower outboard motr, the prospector said.
 Further signs of tragedy were found further up the Flat River.
 Besides another cache, a rusted Winchester 44-40 carbine was found, the magazine empty aud tic barrel bent. There were no trees nearby which could have fallen on the gun and bent the barrel and the prospectors think that some grim story is attached to that rusted and empty gun. Not lar away from the gun the skeleton oL an Indian girl was found.
 The country swarms with fur anc game, while the rivers and Iakes Leem with fish, the two men said.
 It is significant that Jake David son, oldtime Yukoner, who was in the Nahanni last summer, also reached Edmonton from the East recently. He has not yet got in touch with the other prospectors wno were in that country last summer, and it is thought that he IS going ln alone.
 Charlie Mcleod, the first white man to have gone into that country and to have come out alive, is also lined up with Simmonds and Wrigley. They will probably chart CT an aeroplane and leave the clLy within the next week.
 If there was nothing there, do you think that we'd be going in there again?" "GrizzIy'' asked. Boy. you can see the stuff shining through the gravel!"
 Two aeroplanes of the Dominion Exploration Company are also stat ed to be coming to Edmonton soon, en route to the Nahanni country.

 Both Grizzly and Wrigley gave explicit details of how to reach the creek on which Charlie Mcleod and his two brothers were killed in the fall of 1904 by another prospector-were shown rich creek by the chief Of the Nahanni tribe.
 There are the directions: One goes for about 140 miles up the big Ma hanni River, until the mouth of the Flat River is reached. This come in from the left side going upstream, and may be known by a hill with big white clay cut bank on 1t. Then one goes up the Flat river for another 50 miles until the first of a series of cascades is reach ed. This series of cascades is the beginning of the gold fields.
