which will be about eight minutes

After the squads are cleaned. do

Now the affair Of the Other
Woman-the wife was really quite
sensible about that.
She knew about the Other
Woman. Why she must have
known it for months. Everybody
else did, even the telephone girl,
and the garbage man and the
grocery boy, and the woman in the
apartment opposite, and the wife's
brother, and the wife's ~sister-in-
law, and the wife's mother-so of
course the wife knew too.
She cried a good deal, and she
grew sort Of pale and thin, but she
didn't say a word-not a single
word.
She knew better.
She knew that her husband was
a man of spirit, and she had better
sense than to try to dictate to him.
The Other Woman's husband
was not so reasonable.
He made an awful fuss about
the whole, simple affair.
And when his wife tried TO tell
him that il was all a great
romance" and that she was help
less in the web of an overwhelm-
ing love, he wouldn't hear Of il.
He made scenes-and worse
than that-he made difficulties.
Just when the Other Woman
was going to slip out to meet the
Other Man, husband would appear
on the Gene and there he'd sit, no
matter who called up or what.
Always coming home early too,
when he wasn't expected, and play
ing all sorts of mean little tricks
ike that.
And then he died!-battered to
death, allege the authorities, BY
his wife and the Other Man.
Then the Other Mans perfectly
good, reasonable wife died. And
now the authorities have arrested
the Other Man and, they allege, he
not only helped beat Husband to
death, but he poisoned his own
wife to get rid of her.
What a cruel, slanderous, sus-
picious world this il, at times.
And now we'll have to have the
trial and hear all the pretty details
of the charming romance.
Might it not have been better
for these romantic lovers to have
faced their situation honestly, per-
haps giving the man and the
woman they were wronging a
chance to divorce them or the OPP
portunity to help make the ad-
justment? Two lives and much
misery might have been saved.

because Billy thinks ! always look
