II Monday is your birthday,
during the coming year you
should feel the successful and
beneficial influence from the
friendly planet Jupiter. This
should mean some substantial
gain, possibility Of travel, and
opportunities to advance your
position. The planet Saturn is
restricting you, however, and
unless you keep In mind the
fine possibilities that may be
yours, you could easily find
yourself too depressed and dis
appointed to make the most Of
the good things which come
your way.
Important dates: Avoid ex-
cesses Of all kinds, take no
risks and maintain routine

 Max D. Steuer. attorney for Mrs Erlangcr,' said that unless probate acton is started soon by the heirs, 'we will t&&e the necessary legal Court acj.on."
 MednWhllc counsel and relatives Of Erlanger reiterated that there is no Mrs. Erlanger," and that they " ould meet the issue raised by Steuer "at the proper time"
 s;tcuer expressed surprise at the word "lim m1arricd' in the will.

LABOR WAR SEEN
 IN RUMP FARLEY
Miners Union Group Trying to
 Gust John |, Lewis

Springfield, H., March II (UP)- A national labor war which held possibilities of seriously involving the American Federation of Labor was launched here yesterday with the massing of moro than 500 dele gates to trump convention of coal miners for the avowed purpose of seeking the overthrow of President John l.. Lewis and his associates of the United Mine Workers of Ameri- ca executive board.
 Tho opening of tho convention which was held simultaneously with one called by Lewis at Indianapolis. Ind, was featured by the reading of the convention call. It consisted of denunciation of Lewis, laid the groundwork for the adoption of q new international constitution, re- stated the unions policy and select cd national officers to replace Lewis and his associates.
 The call was read by Harry l.. T lsh "lCh, pl colutllI oI lliC llllllOio district union, richest state coal dig gers organzation, and leader Of the fight to dethrone Lewis.
 It was an indictment of the vet eran coal mine union chief for al- legged mismanagement of the na- tional unions affairs and stated that he has brought the organization near to ruin. It charged that his alleged failure to hold a convention last year caused the constitution to collapse and that he is illegally hold ing office.
 The convention is a consolidation of practically all of the forces that have opposed Lewis for the last decade. They include leaders from every bituminous state in the couu- try.
 The fight between Lewis and the insurgents has been smoldering over a period of ten years. It has re- suited in sporadic outbreaks of de- fiance principally within the last year by executives of the Illinois u!cliltl. HC tOlllIOFcISS DtCdHlc SO heated last fall that LeWs revoked the district charter and appointed provisional officers to take over the administration of the state unions affairs.
 He was halted in this, however,, by a court order here which re- strained him from interfering with the districts affairs. The order is now on appeal.

He played regular right guard on the football team and saw moro service in games than any other player on the squad. He played goalie on the hockey team and his team scored 3S points to nine for their opponents.
 He played the part of Gratiano nj the Merchant of Venice" and his efforts in dramatics have been re- garded highly. The glee club, of which he is an active member, won second place in the inter- prcpara- tory school concert held in New York week ago.

Lavine was arrested last night when district attorneys agents said they found him with s75,000 in marked bills as he left the office of Charles Crawford, allegedly one of Lavine's intended victims.
 District Attorney Burton Fitts, preparing to take the matter before the grand jury, said the money was the first payment Lavine expected on a SS0O,O0O demand he made upon Crawford, a politician, Kent Parrot, politician and lawyer, and Abe Nor ris, a broker. Other brokers and fl- nanciers who were not named, were on Lavines list, Fitts said.

 The first outbreak was reported Saturday and check of reports to- day indicated at least 6S persons have been stricken in Washington county, 24 in Carter county and eight in Unicoi county.
 While there have been no fatali- ties, all remedies have failed to bring improvement. The ailment, starting from congestion in the head and sore throat, passes swiftly into the semi-paralytic phase, mark ed by numbncss of the legs and in creasing pain each day.
 Oklahoma City, Okla, March II
 UP)-Morc than 400 men and boys, sufferers from poison Jamaica gin ger, voiced relief today at word from city chemists that their illness had been caused by the bad liquor and not because of an epidemic.
 City Chemist Clifford reported to authorities that he had found traces of poison in the liquor. Officials then predicted patients would re- cover rapidly if they rested.
 Some of the patients had recover ed sufficiently yesterday to take short walks. They crept along with the aid of crutches or canes and complained Of sharp pains in legs and feet.
 Clifford said the attacks were caused by mixing the drinks and not by denaturant.

Miss Johnson was taken into cus- tody later when Lavine said he had collected the money for her.
 Lavine claimed that his arrest was frame-up and that there was noth- ing irregular in the affair.
 He contended that Miss Johnson had refused to go on with her ar ticles, which he was editing, unless he took two suitcases full of docu- ments to Crawford for her.
 He said he did and that Crawford then handed him the packages of money and that he was arrested as he turned to leave.

Sash Is Important

Many OF these variations OF the
sash theme have appeared on
light materials used for formal
afternoon dresses and evening
dresses made to be worn during
the late summer and there is no
doubt or the fact that the rib
bon sash Oh belt will play an even
more important part on evening
dresses this autumn than it has
this summer.
For afternoon dresses OF the
more substantial sor appropriate
for autumn there is less oppor-
tunity for the use OF ribbon but
ribbons continue TO appear as
belts for sports clothes and as
bands for sports hats. Linen rib
bons are much liked at present
for this purpose-one length for
the belt and another 10 match for
the hat, and within a week or two
we shall see new betting ribbons
designed for the same double role
in the autumn sports ensemble.

Mourning Should Be
Chosen With Taste

IL II not generally known that
the custom of wearing mourning
wells had its origin in the fact that
hundreds OF years ago many wo-
men left widows used TO become
members OF some religious orders.
They wore the black veil and the
bit OF white beneath the bonnet
because II was the costume OF the
religious society they had Joined.
This was not the custom or young
women who had no intention OF
remaining widows Often, In fact,
a vow to remarry went with
the assuming OF the veil The
veil was looked upon as q symbol
Of lifelong faithfulness to the one
who had passed away.
The custom or wearing very
elaborate and conspicuous mourn
ing has done more than anything
else to discredit mourning in the
eyes OF many women OF good
breeding and sensitive feelings.
Certain rules have been laid
down regarding materials that
should be selected for mourning.
Velvet is usually taboo. and 50
r satin. and other fabrics with
shiny surface. Patent leather and
polished jet are also regarded as
unsuitable for mourning.
Many persons take considerable
pride when they are In mourning
in avoiding any OF these pro-
scribed materials. The fact re-
mains. however. that it is quite
possible for a person In mourn
ing 10 observe all these rules and
still show bad taste while others
who do not follow them so closely
avoid ostentation and display and
really show what amounts to far
better breeding.
The person who puts on SNOWY
mourning always opens herself to
criticism. The widow who makes
her mourning q mean OF show
ing of her charms and advertising
the fact that che no longer has N
husband seldom deceives any one.
