And the second communication
was to the same effect, although the
writer did not lay it on quite so
thick. These letters have not run
into the hundreds or thousands, but
amount, roughly, to a dozen.
That, I think, is the nucleus of a
nuisance. S. S. and @. K. K. and
the rest need not be grateful to me,
for it is my intention to pocket the
stamps inclosed for return postage
and to send no autographs what
soever.
Mr.. S. S., for instance, believes
q little less than I do that this col

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE kid
l ' naping OF little Charles Lind
bergh was greeted with unintelli-
gent sympathy. The finding Of his
corpse is greeted with equally I'M
intelligent rage.
Unintelligent emotionahsm has
characterized this tragedy from the
beginning. First, there was maud
lin applause for efforts TO compro-
mise with the underworld through
pledges Of immunity and cash. Now,
there is a howl for severe and dras-
tic laws. Pledges Of immunity and
cash accomplished little but 70 pro-
vide a picnic for chiselers.
Laws. passed to satisfy the pres
emit claimor. would accomplish 1T
tie but 70 provide picnic for loop
hole hunting attorneys.

begged completely for a columnar
idea, but the mail seemed much
more bountiful than usual.

myself, as is the custom of retired
actors, there is grist for the mill.
Somebody has written in to say that
he reads the stint every day, al
though, Of course, he does not al
ways agree with it.
"Or maybe I viii be taken to task

criticism, suggestion or outright
contribution"
And so I slit the first envelope.

 It was early morning. Mrs. Riley awuke and shook her husband.

 Riley sat up sleepily and began. You solemnly swear the evidence you shall give the court in this action now on trial"
 He received more vigorous shak- ing, finally got up and found no burglar. "A perfectly good oath wasted, thought Mrs. Riley.

 Now it is Lur1d to Robinson, and it has accounted for two Minne- sota victories, against Iowa and Nebraska.
 Again the Hawkeyes Robinson, veteran wingman, scored two touchdowns in addition to gaining lot of ground. Against Nebras- ka when Minnesota won by T to c., Robinson caught pass and Tipped it la.erally to Jack Man. ders, fullback, for the icne Go- pher touchdown. h

 Under the coaching of the late Dr. Harry L.

 Francis Pug" Lund of Rice Lake, Wis, sophomore for whom Bier man foresees stardom if he inn proves at the p2ce he has set this year, was not a passer until an, early season injury and pneulE mcnia disabled Myron uhl, Min nesota's ace 1881 passer.

 Roolnson, captain elect of the Gopher basketball team, has de- veloped a unique receiving style to take advantage of his height and leaping ability. He seldom takes the ball over his shoulder in the orthodox manner, while s.reaking down the field. Instead he sprints to position, pivots. and leaps high to grab the ball and sets out again on his way,

A taffeta dress should not be hung

the moisture and is injurious to the
sizing in the silk. Hang silk dresses
in cool closets and they will last much
longer.
