I JACKSONVILLE Fla, December 81.
Shortly after it tied up at a Sc
clCded bank on the Nassau River north
of here yesterday, the British registry
schooner Midinette was captured by
Federal prohibition agents, who arrested
two men and seized 955 cases OF choice
liquors.
Officers said warning shots fired by a
lookout resulted in the escape Of 8 or
10 other men engaged In unloading the
boat
Herbert Archer Of Nassau Bahamas,
skipper of the Midinette, and Courtney
Camplejohn Of Jacksonville were in the
hold of the craft when the lookout fired
the signal shots. the agents said, and as
a result they were arrested.
Three men made away in a motor
launch, while several others engaged In
loading the trucks escaped into the
dense woods nearby.
There was enough liquor aboard to
fill seven or eight trucks, s. o. McPher-
son. deputy district prohibition admins

Mcpherson held an elongated bottle
in his hand as he described the seizure.
1t had four separate compartments. In
one was creme de menthe, another
cherry brandy, one had creme de cacao
and the other apricot brandy. The
bottle was decorated with gilt trim
mings.. The agents estimated the booze
was worth in the neighborhood Of $50,-
900 at retail prices.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, December al
One out of every three Of the 100000
women normally employed in Cleveland
is out of job today. The percentage
has increased with depressing rapidity
in the last two years.
In 1880 the percentage was little
over 5. At the beginning of this year
it had increased to approximately 18.
As the year closes it has gone up to
about SO Ia per cent.

The shop windows had never looked so alluring, Nancy decided Wear for Southern resorts was gay colorful and different" Nancy wished that she could play around on the beaches and lie lazily in the sunshine. But northern home, two children a husband and depleted bank account made those joys impossible. But never mind, when I could do that sort of thing, did not have a hus- band nor two of the darlinges; children that ever were. They are worth 1t. When times look up we can be gay like the rest of the carefree world" With which consolation Nancy looked with in- terested but not envious eyes at the show windows.
 The bathing suits were brief and bias. The one piece affair, Nancy learned, was called maillot. One which pleased her especially came in brown and yellow jersey with a skirt of yellow which could be tied over the suit. This skirt was diagonally tucked and helped to continue the biased line of the suit.
 A beach costume which was al- most gypsy like in it's coloring was made of two parts. The wide and Tapping trousers were called "slacks." Nancy decided it was the lower part which gave them the name, for they fitted anything but slackly about the hips. Tho flare was down toward the ankles.

He was positively better looking than Gary Cooper, and so distinguished. She'd bet he would be grand with neck ing-those firm lips under that handsome mustache Tell me-" he said half teasing ly, what are you much for?'
 T don't get you" she said, and went on to say quickly, Do you know you are just terribly good looking?"
 "Thank you" he said. Ut is very kind of you to say so. Do you know that you are extremely pretty? Now, then, you say that you aren't much for habits; tell me. what are you much for?''
 His teasing brought the nbte of intimacy that had been so stupidly lacking until now. Her curiosities were acute, and her impulses were undisciplined. Two scurrying, jerk ing movements across the blanket brought her beside him, snuggled just under his shoulder. "This?" she questioned. How about you?"
 Her lip paste was perfumed. Her hair smelfed, disappointingly, of smoke.

 She said, "Oh. that's the third one I've made you stand up to put out, all in a row, isn't it?" and gig gled a little. "T just don't seem to remember about forest fires and things"
 "Quite all right" Philip an- swered, and sat down again oppo- site her with the same yard and a half of brown and red Indian blan- ket spaced between them. Lefty sighed, almost impercepti- ably. She was coming to fear that, in spite of MT Ecroyd's good looks, she had made mistake when she cut her date with Ken Smith to come out with him. So far he had been absolutely a flat tire, talking unslakedly of piston rods and scen- cry and birds. If she hurried, per haps she could head him off be- fore he got started again on moun- tain robins.
 Memory Is kind of funny thing, isn't it?" she offered. "Now, with me, I really have wonderful memory-everybod says so--but l just don't remember anything that don't think is important. Any thing important l always remem- Der. Like when l file a card-it Is just like l filed 1t in my mind at the same time. never forget it.. And I'm the same way with names. and faces. and prices, and things I'm to buy, and all like that. Any thing important can always re- mem ber."
 And you don't consider forest fires important?" Philip smiled, though, as he questioned.
 Well. of course I do. But know perfectly well that fire wouldn't start out here now when everything is so wet. I'll bet any, thing you couldn't start one if you tried"
 Ut is the principle of the thing, isn't it?" Philip rebuked gently. "If one gets into the habit of throwing lighted cigarets about when they aren't dangerous, one might easily forget at some time when they would constitute a real hazard"
 Lefty sighed again, less imper- ceptibly. "I'm not much for form ing habits myself" she said.
 "Good!" Philip responded heart fly, and added, "No-Pm sure you aren't" and looked again at her small neat head. with its red-gold hair that seemed to sparkle even in the shadows, and wondered again whether or not it smelled of soap. During the past half hour. since she had taken off her beret. he had been speculating about that cleaning young hair. It should not be perfumed: it should smell. cleanly. of soap.
 She smiled at him engagingly.
