Better Than Science
After that he insisted that
/ comb his hair and shave him
every morning. He started to
eat q little and drink less.
Margie came over more often,
and the doctors said If the girl
had that effect on him medical
science couldn't compete with
her.
well, Mr. Hellinger, that
boy got well. I used to stand
by the kitchen door and watch
him on the lawn trying to
walk. He had q cane and
Margie to help him.
Then, after awhile, the
doctors said that he'd have to
go away for a long rest. Well,
Sonny baked at that. He
said that the country was
made for birds, and bees and
flowers, but not for him. He
told them he'd die on O farm.
But they insisted. In the
end, Margie got him to agree
She said that II he did as the
doctors suggested, she'd marry
him when he returned. Pro-
vided. Of course, that he never
touched another drop of liquor.
Sonny was so crazy about
that girl that he'd have prom
ised to live on milk and eggs If
she had asked. Then he went
off to a farm in Canada, north
of Montreal.
He was gone six months.
During that time all he did
was eat, sleep. and write letters
to Margie. Old Man Hayes
and Mrs. Hayes were tickled
silly because of the forthcom-
ing marriage. They liked the
girl, and they knew that she
was the salvation of their son.
We'll, he sent pictures home
now and then. and got a look
at some of them. You never
saw such a change in your
life. He looked as he did when
he was 10. He had all the
youthful vigor back. and the
: only change I could see was
that his expression was calmer.
More settled.
Stays on Wagon
The doctors said that he
had lived up to his promise
perfectly. He hadn't touched
a drop of liquor; in fact he
was dead set against drinking.
The night before he was to
come back he phoned Mrs.
Hayes. She spoke to him for
about three minutes, and came
downstairs beaming. She gave
me orders about the homecom-
ing celebration for the next
night. They were going to an
nounce Sonny'S engagement to
Margie at the party.
."'I was Just talking to him.
Mrs. Hayes said. He sounded
like my old boy. I'm So happy.
So very, very happy. He told
me that he had learned his
lesson. He would never drink
again. He wants nothing to
do with liquor. Oh, I'm so
happy
Sonny started back in the
big roadster he always used.
He made good time down
through Canada because he
was in a hurry to meet Margie
and the folks again.
"AS he crossed the border
into the United States, a very
strange thing happened. Mr..
Hellinger. A man stood in
front of Sonny's car waving
at him. Sonny thought he
wanted a lift, and kept going.
THE man fired J shot. It
hit Sonny in the side Of the
head. The car crashed into
some trees. and he was dead be-
fore a doctor arrived.
There's irony for you, Mr..
Hellinger. After all he had
gone through to beat the liquor
habit, Sonny vaS shot by a

GLASSFORD ACCEPTS
DAVIS EXPLANATION
Difference Over Mitchell Report
on B. E. F. Evictions Are
Patched Up.

Brig. Gen. Pelham D. Glassford,
superintendent OF police, and Inspector
o. T. Davis, commander of the Crime
Prevention Bureau, yesterday patched
up their differences growing out of the
report of Attorney General Mitchell on
Force.
The controversy was precipitated by
demand by Gen. GlaSsford for an
explanation by Inspector Davis of a
statement attributed to him in the
Mitchell report that he he'd orders to
keep his men from the bonus army
camps on the day of the rioting.
After considering Davis written ex-
planation for several days, Gen. Glass
ford accepted it in the interest of peace
and harmony in the department. Gen.
Glassford, however, did not make pub
lie the text Of the Davis report, but
said the officer had assured him of his
loyalty and cooperation.
Reports also were received from In
spectors L. I. H. Edwards and T. r.
Bean in response to Gen. Glassford's s
demand on them for written statements
as to any information they may have
given the District Commissioners as to
the need for calling out troops during
the rioting among the bonus marchers.
These reports likewise were not made

Held in Case.
BY the Associated Press.

FALL RIVER, Mass. September IL
Rev. Stanislaus Sleinis, AZ, former
pastor of the American Lithuanian
National Church in Lawrence, died to-
night at the Union Hospital, where to-
day, police said, he accused a 19-year-
old Lawrence youth of poisoning him.

cius, 81, also of Lawrence, the latter
described as friend of the priest, were
arrested today charged with assault
with intent to kill the clergyman.
While police stood by. Father Sleinis
said to Turek at the hospital.
You're bad boy, Joe. You took
my 5000 and gave me poison. I'm going
to die You should be punished"
Turek had been taken into custody
in Lawrence speakeasy.
Father Sleinis came to Fall River
several days ago after a disagreement
with some of his parishioners led to
his resigna ton. The parish had given
him 5000 in lieu of his continued serv-
ices.
He came here to live with Rev.
Wladyslaw w. DynewcZ, pastor of the
Holy Trinity Church. Shortly after ar
irving he complained of being i'll and a
physician was called who said he had
been poisoned. Authorities then were
notified.
Police said they had learned that
Turek had advised the clergyman to
take a medicine to build him up" at
the same time asking the priest for 5000.

25K|NDS Of Grass
TRIED Al FIELD
Types From Many Lands Will
Be Planted to Find Good
Airport Coverage.

Twenty-Five varieties Of grass seeds
and stolons from many parts Of the
world will be planted in an expert
mental plot on WashinFton-H Hoover
Airport tomorrow by the Agriculture
Department in an effort to solve one
of the major airport problems of the
Nation.
The experiment is to be undertaken
in an effort to find grass or mixture
of grasses which can be grown on
busy flying field. as means of pro-
| viding good landing and take-off turf
and overcoming the serious mud and
dust problem present at most flying
| fields.
Patches Will Be Charted.
The 25 varieties of grass will be
planted singly and in various combina-
tions in a large number of patches
along the west and south portions of
the airport landing area. The patches
will be charted and regular observa-
tions maGe by the department to Ge-
termine which of the varieties or com-
binations is best meeting the strains
and stresses of life on a modern air
port.
The experiments are being conducted
under the supervision of c. P. EnloW
OF the forage crops division at the re-
quest of aviation authorities.
Offers W0rs. Conditions.
Washington-Ho Hoover Airport was Sc
lccted for the experiment. not only be-
cause it is conveniently located, but
also because it is one of the busiest
airportS In the country and offers about
the worst possible condition for grass
growing.
Mr.. Enlow visited the airport yester-
day to mark off the planting areas and
to make estimates of the amount of
fertilizers required for conditioning the
SOIL
If the experiments are successful. it
was indicated, airports will be able to
save thousands Of dollars now spent fOJ
paving and other treatments and tht
worst of the mud and dust trouble,
MAJ be avoided
