Same Complaint

'Well," I remarked as he was
wrapping up my order, "I've
got the same complaint again.
It's almost impossible to walk
the streets without being an
noyed on every side. A few
policemen could settle the en-
tire trouble in no time. Why
don't they stop this nonsense
once and for all?"
He smiled.
Probably" he returned, "it
is because they do not want to
stop 1t. In former years, it
was far worse than it is now.
They tanned it down somewhat,
but they are unwilling to go
too far. It is the theory Of the
police, I think, that these men
have the right to make a living
in any way that they see fit"
AS the druggist talked, I
was suddenly reminded of my
exp erience. AS soon as he was
through talking, I shot at him.
Listen" I cried, Il ran into
something highly unusual to-
night and you may be the very
man to supply the answer.
Mind if I tell it to you?"
Certainly not" he returned.
go to it,"
So I told him the whole yarn,
beginning with the time that
was first solicited by the crea.
ture. I outlined in detail how
he had refused to give up.
Then I brought in the tall man
with the rose. I described the
transfer of the flower and the
look on the tall mans face.
"And with that" finished,
''the filthy mug forgot me en-
tirely. Pressing the rose to him,
he disappeared. If that wasn't
a queer thing, I don't know
what a queer thing is. What
the devil do you make of it?"
He gave me the solution with
out the slightest hesitancy.
"The answer is extremely
simple" he replied with a
shrug. "The rose was filled with

So, taking the advice that

the statement that, after a

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 7.
A bit of casting that seems pro-
foundly right is r. K. O.'s choice
of Leslie Howard to play the hero
of Somerset Maugham's novel,
"Of Human Bondage"
Mr.. Howard's signature was OBJ
tanned yesterday after consider
able negotiation. The actor is so
beset with offers that he scarcely
knows which one to take. Fox just
won't make Berkeley Square"
without him, Warmers have him
signed for Fellow Prisoners" and
Gilbert Miller was anxious to get
him for a picture at Columbia.
Meanwhile Howard still wistfully
insists he IS going to do a play
in London.
The Vaughan novel was bought
by r. K. o. on the actors own
recommendation. AS you un-
doubtedly know, 1t is one of our
modern classics and contains a
role that any actor would play
for nothing.
There's no director yet, or any
further casting.

AS he neared me, the man
with the rose nodded to the
filthy creature at my side. The
latter darted forward and re-
ceived the rose in q hand that
was eagerly outstretched. The
tall man said nothing. He
merely walked on past me with
an expression of having done
a kind deed.
For the first time since he
had seen me, the creature ig-
nored me completely. Gone
were all his whines of sales
manship. Mumbling few
words that I could not distin-
guish, he veered abruptly to the
right. Inhaling deeply of the
flower, he walked on and soon
was lost in the crowd.
I do not exaggerate. That is
exactly what happened. A
flower had accomplished what
I had been unable to do. A
beautiful rose in a pair of filthy
hands.
I walked on and the more I
walked, the more puzzled I be-
came. The picture I have given
you is an authentic one. I did
nothing but tone down a few Of
the words in his salesman's talk
to me. What, then, was the
meaning behind all this? I
thought and I thought. and
then I gave it uD.

BOND ELECTION WILL BE
HELD ON MONDAY FROM
1 TO s pm. AT CITY HALL

Sentiment throughout the dis
trict seems to be gaining decidedly
in favor of the bond issue. After
thorough investigation it proves
to be the only avenue, which the
school might follow, offering a
definite saving to the taxpayer.
The voting place will be at the
city hall and will be open from
one o'clock until eight in the eve
ing. .a5, &....
The high lights of the issue are:
1t is not an additional indebted
ness molly converted indebted
ness, warrants to bonds, offering q
two percent or more saving in in
terest. This amounts to approxi-
mately $4,000 per year. 1t inn
mediately reestablishes the credit
of the district to one hundred
cents on the dollar. 1t is now worth
about eighty cents as it is neces-
sary to add 20 percent for discount
on carriage of warrants. This
would save the district 100000
or more per year. A bond issue
would permit the school to run
without calling for special levy.
This means at least a three mill
lesser levy against the district
each year. Should delinquent taxes
come in later the board assures
they will be used to reduce the
bond issue, thus reducing levies
for that purpose. The board is re-
trained from using such funds In
that they cannot exceed the esti-
mate budget in anyone year.
The school officials will appre-
ciate as nearly as possible a 100
percent expression Of the patrons
at the polls. Whether for or against
your vote is solicited. This matter
is one of grave concern for the
taxpayer and school, so it is hop
ed that no patron will cast his
vote until he has definitely given
consideration to all angles of the
issue.
For the benefit Of the patrons,
bus drivers have graciously con-
sented to make two regular bus
runs, the first beginning at 2 p.
m. and the second at z pm. 1t is
advised that all who can, make use
of the afternoon run.

COUNCIL HOLDS
UP ORDINANCE
FOR THEATRES
To Give Show Opportunity of
Living Up to Promise of
Better Class of Pictures;
City to Do Repair Work

Upon the promise of better
pictures at the local theatre, the
city council has decided to hold off
passage of the drastic license or
dinance temporarily. The city
dads are anxious to provide local
residents with good programs and
feel that the class of pictures book
ed here recently have not been of
the highest type.
In order to bring the matter to
head new licensing ordinance
providing for a fee of five dol
lars night has received its first
and second readings. Upon its
third trip thru the hopper the or
dinance become effective.
The management of the theatre
claims that the new booking will
permit a division of the better
shows between the two towns. The
season begins this month and the
council is awaiting the offerings
here to determine whether to push
their new law or continue on the
present basis.
Outside of passing the usual
snag of bills against the city the
only other matter discussed was
deal with the irrigation district
concerning the pipe lines in the
city. A plan is being worked out
whereby the city will do all the
actual maintenance work while the
district will collect the annual
maintenance fees along with
their regular charges. Under the
present method of handling the
work, some of it is handled by the
city, some by the district and some
by the individual pipe line owners.
