the fact that Listerine kills germs
in the mouth in the fastest time
without IJuryt to tissue. Unlike that
of harsh mouthwashes, its effect
is actually healing.
So, while Listerine attacks the
cause of infection, it relieves the
irritation that accompanies it.
Be Systematic
Make a habit of gargling full
strength Listerine every morning
and every night. Thus, you keep
your breath beyond suspicion and
help Nature to ward off colds and
sore throat. Once a cold threatens
to become serious, increase the
frequency of the gargle to once
every two hours, meanwhile call

CLOUT FOR COURTESY

1c involves wIue range of diff ferenceS in rules as well as judg- Ament. In Germany, for example, f is the custom among amateur boxers, after being separated from a clinch by the referee, to shake hands before they resume spar ring. The Olympic rules do not sanction this much courtesy, but one Campo, good lightweight from Germany. reverted to native habit in the final bout and got a stiff clout on the ear for his po- likeness from South African named Stevens.
 Stevens won the decision and the Olympic title. Campo came out of the bout with bad ear and had to receive hospital treat ment for a dangerous injury
 Under the Olympic scoring sys- tenn of figuring a 20 point maxi mum for each man in each of the three rounds, many baffling results are obtained.
 Judges and referees. all partici- pating in the verdicts, represent many different nationalities. Rules and customs, as well as viewpoints differ accordingly. Much as the International Boxing Federation las sought to reconcile these var ious competitive interests, it has been unable thus far to prevent controversies. It would seem, how ever, that the job can be better done.
 It would, of course, be a rank confession of weakness to toss the Olympic boxing contests overheard, entirely, rather than seek unifor- mly acceptable methods and reg ulations understandable to all of- ficials as well as fair to all par ticipants.
 On tili3 account, the fiStic sport seems likely to survive the after math of dissatisfaction, left by the 1892 Olympics, but the settlement of differences should not be left to the week before the 1886 games at Berlin.

LIFE OF EASE
ON LOOT ENDS:
AGAIN IN Cell.
Escaped Gem Thief Found
Living on SIS Weekly
Income From TheftS.
FLED IN PRISON RIOT
Man Who Stole Millions in
Jewels Expects Rest of
Days in Jail.
BY MARION F. COLLINS
United Press stan Correspondent

NEWARK, N. j., Oct. 24.-Life in
prison faced Arthur Barry, captured
gem thief, who escaped from Au-
burn penitentiary and planned a life
of ease on a $75 weekly income from
loot, estimated at 100000.
The Suave robber, who fled dur
ing the 1929 Auburn riot, in cell
here today predicted fer himself the
full term meted out to fourth
offenders under the Baumes law.
He also reviewed his life of crime,
his daring Jail break, and his three
year period of freedom, in which he
insisted he had gone straight"
Barry was questioned for possible
knowledge of the Lindbergh kidnap-
ing case, but authorities were con-
WINGED he knew nothing thereof. 1t
was said he had thorough alibi for
the day and night of the kidnapping.
Captured in Farmhouse
Barry was captured Saturday
night in a farmhouse near And
over, N. j., because some one
squealed," he said.
Barry had dyed his hair and lived
quietly on farm, where he paid
81 weekly for a room. He said he
had lived a year in New York and
year in Newark
When the Auburn break was
plotted, Barry said, he and his pals,
raided the prison arsenal, and
escaped over the wall.
Once in New York, Barry said he
was only bothered once.
II thought it was curtains then"
he laughed, but the cop was up
against it. He took what I had and
was satisfied. He even offered me
dollar back for a taxi"
Tells of Gem Thefts
The fugitive said otherwise his
life in New York wss uneventful.
Later he decided to move to
Newark, where he lived for a year
in the same apartment with a po-
lice lieutenant.
Barry talked freely of certain
jewel robberies, but refused to give
names, exact places or dates, in
sisting, however, that all of them
were committed before he was sent
to Auburn.
He said the largest diamond he
ever stole was forty-Seven caratS,
that he got in Florida, but would
add nothing else.
The fugitive also told how he once
saw a woman wearing many jewels
at a ball in Connecticut, and how
he later trailed her to her home and
watched through a window as she
removed the jewels and placed them
in book, the pages of which had
been cut away to form receptacle,
and how he entered the house and
took the jewels, later pawned for
sos ,000
Obtained Valuable Loot
Among Barry's larger thefts was
that of jewelry taken from Jesse L.
Livermore, wealthy stock market
operator, at Kings Point, L. l., in
May, 1927. Mr.. and Mrs. Livermore
were surprised in their bedroom by
Barry, who had entered the house
from a second story window. His
loot was estimated at 100000.
Percy Rockefeller of Greenwich,
Conn, was another victim, losing
$4,000 in gems to Barry. Joshua
CoSden also fell prey to the gem
thief.
Barry was sentenced to twenty
five years for the Livermore theft.
His extradition to New York is ex-
pected in a few daYs.
