Judge Woodward Set
Heavy Sentences In
Obscene Show Case
Montgomery Official Sets Elk
ample To ''Those Maintaining
Common Law Nuisance

Asserting that the performance
was the most Outrageous ever held
in Montgomery County," Judge
Charles W. Woodward imposed heavy
sentences in the cases of three de-
PENDANTS who were convicted yester-
day at Rockville in connection with
an obscene show presented in the Ma
tional Guard Armory at Kensington.
Benjamin Livingston, of Baltimore,
Md, was convicted on charge Of
maintaining a common-law nui-
sance." He is alleged to have been
the one who provided the entertain
ers for the show. Livingston was
sentenced to serve five years in the
Maryland House of Correction.
Fred Edwards Casey and Gertrude
Cole, both of Baltimore, alleged to
have been performers, were sentenced
to serve four and three years, respec-
tivly, in the House of Correction.
Mrs. Livingston, wife of the first
defendant, created a scene in the
courtroom as her husband was SEN
fenced. She ran to the front and
shouted: at isn't so! 1t isn't sol'
She was led from the room by Sheriff
Richard H. Lansdale after she had
made an impassioned plea for elem
ency on behalf of herself and their
seven children.
The appeals of julius Rosenfeld
and Edmund D. Ault, of Washington
who were convicted and fined in the
county police court in connection
with the show were dismissed. The
judge was informed they had paid
their fines of $3.50 and $50, respec-
lively Judge Woodward dismissed
the appeal Of Powell Havener, Of
Kensington, alleged to have been a
performer, when he was informed
that Judge Donald A. DeLashmutt in
police court had suspended sentence
in the case.
Ralph Pines, of Washington, also
arrested in connection with the case,
paid a fine of $3.50 and costs i'm
posed by Judge DeLashmutt in police
court yesterday morning where Pines
pleaded guilty.
When news of the show leaked out
in Kensington, it created a furore
and civic leaders at once laid the
matter before States Attorney Sted-
man Prescott, who brought it to the
attention of the county grand jury
and ordered warrants sworn out for
cases in the lower court. County Of
ficials said they wished to make an
example of these people in order that
similar shows will be afraid to oper-
ate in Montgomery County.

Newspaper Office Proves
Mecca For Couples Who
Would Embrace Marriage

The Sentinel Office has added
another problem to its many daily

attracted by the new coat of paint
on the old building, make it
habit to come in and ask sly ques-
tions about telephone directories,
addresses, etc., which eventually
and inevitably result in the Office
force reaching for the phone and
calling some local preacher.
We try 70 be impartial and give

Lois had just come from session
with the dentist. He looked her teeth
over and explained the tendency of
her teeth to decay at this time The
body needs an extra supply of lime be-
cause of the building up process which
is going on. Lime which would ordi-
narily go to the teeth is being diverted
And Hmeless teeth are a prey to decay
and to softening.
diet This Is done by increasing the
amount of milk in the diet, by eating
plenty of leafy vegetables. Citrous
fruits are another help.
Lois was glad that she enjoyed milk
dishes. And crisp salad was one of
the dishes she always chose when lunch
ing away from home. 1t looked as
though the prescribed diet was going
to be an easy one to follow.
Roger sent home a surprise package
for his wife. 1t came in a great big
box. all tied up with gift ribbons. The
crinkly tissue paper showed something
family blue inside its depths.
Lois opened the paper further and
saw an aquamarine blue lounging robe.
It fell in soft shimmering folds to her
feet.
The cartridge sleeves gave width at
the shoulders. Not only were they
smart, but they helped to detract from
width in other parts of the body. So
did the surplice closing of the front.
1t was a lovely thing. Lois called
Roger at once to thank him. She could
not wait until he came home. Men like
to be thanked. They do so many nice
things for which appreciation is never
shown. And the more one appreciates,
the more chances one has to show ad-
6iitional gratitude. Lois had found.

suit. However, the implication varies
according to the suit in which responder
takes out, though the raise IS always
made on not less than four cards in the

Raising a Spade Take Out.
Bidding is one no trump two spades,

support of your bid. 1t is up to you to
decide whether to pass or to bid three
no trumps or to bid four spades. II you

Raising a Heart Take-Out.
Bidding is one no trump, two hearts,
three hearts. Opening bidders request
is: Il have four hearts in support OF
your suit, but my hand contains weak
spot, otherwise I would have repneo
with two no trumps. If you are very
weak. pass. Game is then extremely
unlikely. If you have a weak four-card

Everyday Psychology
By DIR. JESSE ". sPROWLs.
The Sadist.

The Sadist.
In some respects psychology Is a
story Of individual development from
infancy to maturity. On this score,
the science of psychology is collec-
tivity of the greatest common denom-
inators of human development One
OF these common denominators goes
under the name of sadism. That is
the impulse to derive pleasure through
inflicting pain upon others.
This sadistic trait is common among
children. It is a gesture. A searching
for means of domination over a world
of bewilderment, contrast, thwarted
endeavor. disappointment, pain. Envy
is the better word to use in referring
this trait to individuals who have not
gone far on the road to reality.
Few persons really grow UP. In
practically every case some leftover
from the infantile period drags along,
and drags the possessor back to infancy
Those adults who have not completely
outgrown the sadistic impulse are envi-
GUS and deceitful. In the presence of
those unable to defend themselves.
they impose every embarrassment they
can. this side the law. The favorite
activity Of the incurable sadist toward
those he considers his superiors is
blackmail. Put the blackmailer ION
the spot" and you will hear the whine
of an infant crying for the light.

ways of the whirligig, water boatman
and others.
These sporty divers use their hind
legs as oars. The legs are surrounded
by hairs. and If the swimmer finds
himself sinking, because his oars have
become water logged, he lifts first one
oat, then the other, to let them dry.
The body is boat shaped, and when the
swimmer wishes to go below he takes
an extra amount of air through two
openings at the tip of his body which
connect with his breathing spiracles
When he is down he must cling to
something, as he is so bouyant. By
moving a leg he can adjust his air
bubbles, and by letting go Of his anchor
he shoots to the surface again.
The dark brown creatures keep their
wings folded tight over their backs
They have very strong mouth parts,
which are capable of giving you
sting, and you know what that means.
The long hind legs are used as oars,
the middle ones as sort of steering
wheels and the front ones, with their
sharp claws, cling to the surface of the
water.
For dinner supper and breakfast. they
dine on the many insects about them
They are very fond of minnows, too
and even wee fish that are trying to
grow up. The tiny fish put up brave
fight when the efficient hunter comes
after them, but one bite from the sharp
beak and the struggle is over. The fish,
erman then takes long breath of fresh
air through his air tube situated at
the tip of his body and goes down to
enjoy his meal.
When Winter comes the back SWIM
mers go into the mud huts they make
on the bottom of the pond. In the
Spring they are among the first to be
seen on the water.
Mother back swimmers seek the stems
OF water plants and make Sits along
them in which to insert their eggs two
thirds their length. The other third
is provision made by the wise parent
for her offspring. The infant will peep
from his shell and from this little win
dow will later drop into the water
Wings are not given to him at birth,
but as he grows older he acquires them.
There are II species of back SWIM
mers known In the United States. They
make interesting guests for the home
aquarium, but care must be taken to
give them neighbors who are capable of
defending themselves.

time and now I would like

OUR CHILDREN
BY ANGELO PATRI,

IN our desire to be up to the minute
in education we have tried to give
the children the freedom they ought
to have to make their growth healthy,
swift and strong, and in that effort we
have strayed bit too far on the left.
We have departed widely from the idea
that leadership by parents and teachers
is necessary for the guidance Of chill
dren.
That leadership is essential. If chill
dren could direct themselves, if they
could elect their courses of study, if
they could see their aims clearly and
direct their powers efficiently there
would be no need of schools, no need
of any sort of supervised training. The
children could be turned loose to do
for themselves.
Some children have been turned loose
in this way while their teachers and
parents looked on approvingly. The
results have not always been good.
Children make waste movements. They
make useless mistakes. They wander
about the field of learning with vague
notions of doing something some how
They end in confusion and discourI
agement.
Little children must be guided The
guidance ought to be illuminated by
wisdom. The fear of dominating and
lettering the mind of child ought to
teach us to be discriminating and gen.
erous in our dealings with him, but it
should not lead us into making the
