3rd St. Mother
Praises Friend

There isn't a mother living who
won't agree that no half-Sick
child should be the subject for an
experiment with medicines of un-
certain merit. When your child Is
bilious, headachy, half-sick, fever
iSh, restless, with coated tongue,
bad breath, no appetite or energy,
YOU know that nine times out of
ten it's a sign his little stomach
and bowels need purging. And
when you know that for over fifty
years leading physicians have en-
dorsed one preparation for this
condition, there doesn't seem to
be any reason for trying" things.
Rich, fruity California Fig Syrup
clears the little stomach and
bowels gently, harmlessly and in a
hurry. It regulates the bowels,
gives tone and strength to them
and to the stomach; and helps to
give your child new strength,
energy and vitality. Thousands
of Washington mothers praise it.
Mrs. G.. H. Warden, 829 Third st.
NE, says: "I'll never forget the
druggist friend who got me to give
my baby boy, Ralph, California
Fig Syrup. Nothing else helped
his bowels, which seemed to be
weak. He suffered for many
months before I gave him Fig
Syrup, but it stopped his trouble
quick. I have used it with him
for colds and little upset spells
ever since. I consider him a Fig
Syrup baby"

BICGESTLECAL
ISSUES IN YEARS
| BEFORE COURT
Supreme Tribunal to Ponder
important Questions in
Four-Week Recess.

BA United Press
WASHINGTON, March 12.-The
supreme court today started four
week recess, during which it will
consider and perhaps decide five or
six of the most important legal and
economic question before it in
years.
These cases include the Okanogan
pocket veto case. argued Monday,
the O'Fallon railroad valuation
case, the New York subway fare
case, the Harry Sinclair Jail SEN
tence for senate contempt, and the
question of allowing foreign-born
Canadians to commute to the
United States to work without COM
ing under the immigration quota
Iaw Of their native country.
The court Monday awarded the
nations railroads $49,000,000 vic
tory in a ruling unfolding the in
terstate commerce commissions &C
ton in the railway mail pay case.
This decision allowed the roads to
collect increased rates from the
government for carrying the mails
from the date of their application
for increased rates, instead Of the
date three years later when the
commission granted the increase.
The court denied Edward F. Col
ira, st. Louis, a review Of his ir-
junction suit to prevent the war
department from canceling his
lease on a valuable Mississippi river
barge line consisting of nineteen
barges and four towboats.
The court decided to hear argu-
ments on an unique question raised
in Cleveland, as to whether state
courts can grant divorce to a
wife of a vice consul of a foreign
government. John Popovici, Ru-
manian vice-consul, claimed in his
appeal that only federal courts
could act on his domestic disputes,
under the constitution.

Scandal of Chaplin Break
With Lita Gray Fails to
Harm Her.
BY DAN THOMAS
NEA Service Writer

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March r.
l. 4 Hats off to Merna Kennedy
she's one girl in fifty!
I seriously doubt if more than
2 per cent of the young actresses
in celluloidia could have gone
through what the titian-haired
beauty did and still kept fighting.
If any girl ever had discouraging
start on a career, it was Merna.
Because she happened to be play
ing in 1.-THE Circus" with Charlie
Chaplin, Merna's name was linked
with all the scandal of the Chaplin
divorce. Hollywood gossip limited at
an affair with the comedian and
intinated that she would marry him
when he was free from Lita Gray.
Yet. Merna came through with
flying colors. She ignored all that
was going on about her. She and
Jimmy Hall, himself a popular
screen player, were in love.
Whenever she was questioned re-
garding Charlie and Lita her an
swer always was "I don't know
anything about it.
That's the way the actress won
out. Merna suffered none of the
tragedies which might have be-
fallen her through her association
with Chaplin and she was schooled
in the art of acting by one of
the greatest actors in the busi-
ness.
! 1t was that schooling which has
resulted in her securing as choice
a part as 1929 has to offer a film
actress the leading feminine
role in Broadway" the stage
play for which Universal paid
$225,O0o.

LESLIE SIGNS
FIVE BILLS OF
CITY INTEREST
Authority Given to Purchase
Church Sites on Memo
rial Plaza.

Indianapolis interest in the legis-
lature just closed centered on five
bills. all of which were passed, were
signed by Governor Harry G. Leslie
and will become effective when the
Acts of 1929 are printed this spring.
When the Governor Monday
signed the two senate bills permit
ting the city of indianapolis and
Marion county to acquire church
properties on the World war me-
mortal plaza, the last of the impor-
tant Indianapolis bills" safely were
filed with the secretary of state.
Preceding them were two bills to
facilitate transfer of the Citizens
Gas Company to the city, and the
Noll city manager amendment act.
All were permissive measures, to
which legislators acceded.
NoII Bill First
First to receive executive approval
was the Noll BILL clarifying and
strengthening the 1921 city manager
act. Indianapolis senators and rep
resentatives, pledged to the city
manager cause, bore the brunt of
attack on the measure, aided by
friendly forces from Evansville and
Terre Haute.
Stripped of its original provision
for the proportional representation
system of electing city commission
ers, the Noll bill throws RESPONSE
bility for their election on a nom
partisan basis upon city manager
advocates who realize they may ex-
pect their strongest opposition from
party groups.

ture who voted for the Noll bill
