 The participation of the Girl Scout organization in this way as a means of helping relieve the un- employment situation was consid- cred favorably at the annual na- tional Girl Scout convention at Buffalo in october where the mat ter was introduced by Mrs Nicholas F.

 Through Morrison, police said, the gun was traced to Miss John son and then to Merton Levine. Though admitting she arranged for purchase of the gun for Merton, according to police, the negress disclaimed knowledge of the actual shooting.
 "We have clear evidence to show that Merton killed his brother be- cause he was jealous over Abra- hams friendship for Miss Johnson. We know that Merton has been very friendly with Miss Johnson" police said

Did Missing
 Singer Suicide
(continued from Page 1.)

(Continued from Page 1.l plain this. She told of previous attempt to commit suicide, by gas.
 But l am so young and so much lies before me 1t seemed too shame full" she wrote. T shall find death in the water" The young singer is 28.
 Detectives searched the shore of a nearby lake in Central Park, but the absence of any footprints in the thick mud of the banks convinced them she had not gone there.
 Friends at the Metropolitan said Miss Blonde never had seemed de- pressed, although some recalled she had lost heavily in the stock mar ket.
 New Haven, Conn. Dec. 11.- (UP) The husband and relatives of Santa Blonde in this city were unable to explain her mysterious disappearance in New York on the eve of her debut in the opera La Notte di Soraime" at .he Metropoli- tan opera house last night. Mauro Blonde, IT,, a brother, said she had suffered financial re- verses in the stock market recent ly but had no idea why she should have neglected long-sought op- portunity to sing with the Metro- politan.
 Salvatore Muzullo, her husband, who slaved in tailor shop to give his beautiful young wife vocal training only to lose her when she developed great talent, hurried off to New York to-day to aid in the search. Muzullo, who lives in an unattractive six-family tenement house, $50-week helper in a tail- bring establishment, has visited his wife in New York every two weeks since she went there several years ago to seek fame and fortune. She gave no hint of depression on his last visit, he said.
 Mauro Blonde, Sr., father of the singer, is proprietor of a restaur- ant. Muzzullo telephoned him from New York he had been unable to trace Santa and feared her finan- cial losses might have caused her to harm herself.

Star and the St. Louis Globe-Democrat,

bid for the presidency in 1892 and OBJ
servers saw In the situation threat

of Reeds stand, plans for forming the

HELP SUPPORT THE "Y"

During the past ten days an army
of workers have been industriously
carrying on the annual financial
canvass for Hamilton's Y. M. c.. A.
Though we are in business slump
and many workers are unemployed,
the "Y" solicitors are making graft
flying reports of results of their en-
deavors. The purpose of this annual
canvass is to secure funds that the
'Y" program, which means so much
to our boys and young men and to
the community life of Hamilton, may
be carried on.
1t is a well known fact that there
are many features on the "Y" pro-
gram which are non-self-supporting,
including boys and young mems
training, meetings of all kinds by
outside groups; shop basketball
leagues; foremen's smokers and So
cial activities in which the commun-
ity takes part 1t takes money to
keep these things going, and we
must have them if we are to keep
up with the times as other cities are
doing.
The need for the "Y" and its activ-
tiles is apparent and great and we
must keep it. The ''Y" is deserving
of all the support it can be given,
and all who can should respond gen
erously to its appeal for financial aid.

HOW THE VETS SPENT THEIR
BONUS MONEY

Remember the howl raised a few
months ago when the veterans loan
bill was passed? How it was pre-
dicted by people who should have
known better (maybe they did that
the veterans would spend the money
on riotous living?
Now comes investigation by the
veterans administration revealing
that 65 per cent of the veterans OBJ
tanning bonus loans sought them for
personal and family needs, 20 per
cent for investments, 8 per cent for
automobiles, and per cent used the
funds in ways of no practical benefit.
That doesn't look like spending the
money on profigate living, on "wine,
woman and song" does it? And
yet none of the persons who saw the
veterans running themselves have hao
the grace to apologize for their un-
founded assertions. Not so far that
you can notice it.
