MARY, MARY QUITE CONTRARY

Queen Mary was suffering from
slight cold today, 1t was official
ly stated at buckingham Palace.
Her Majesty remained indoors,
although the cold Is reported as
very slight" News item.
Reminds me the King had slight
one few years ago, at least until
the doctors decided to operate. Then,
of course, they had to give 1t q name.
/ do hope the Queen will get away
with it. I am quite as enthusiastic
about the millinery racket as the
average husband and father, I sup
pose. Yet aside from that, have al
ways admired Her Majesty's old hat.
It reminds me of TR,s famous SLOUGH.
Only a parsonage can wear funny
hat without loss Of dignity.
The news item bore the signature Of
Aunt Polly. She always initials her
stuff (AP). Sometimes suspect
Aunt Polly Is not SO dumb as she
pretends to be. At any rate she gets
some droll touches on her medical
stories. Probably the news Of the royal
cri broke just as Polly was getting
home from party. Polly cabled
Mary confined palace today quote
very slight cold unquote." The FORE
man of the assembly plant at this end
might have worked in q paragraph
or two referring vaguely to the damp
ness Of the fog and the depressing
effect Of the unusually cold autumn
in London this season, but just then
some fine leg pictures came along and
he let it go. It was only q weekday
story anyhow.
have so much faith in the Queens
nobility Of character that l like to
think there was more to the story
than Aunt Polly thought worth cabl-
ing. Something like this:
Queen Mary feels that 1t Is the
duty Of one in such circumstance
to remain isolated 50 that one win
not spread the infection to other
persons"
For after all it does not seem con-
sistent that Her Majesty should be so
plumb contrary about that dowdy old
hat Of hers, yet meekly remain in
doors Just for "very Slight" indis-
position. No, I'm offering odds that
the Queen was unselfish, thoughtful
for the health and safety Of others,
trying In her always gracious way to
set good example for her subjects.
Even If Aunt Polly got the story all
straight-which would be extraordi-
nary In the case Of a medical story
would not put it past her to omit por-
lions which do not quite fit in with
Pollys personal notions. and from
long acquaintance with Polly I know
how little patience she has with new
tangled ideas about health or hygiene.
I've known Polly to turn In columns
about some undertakers who threat
ened to keep their high hats on ct
the services in the graveyard when the
weather seemed inclement. To Polly
humor of that sort Is not funny at all.
At that, I wonder how q reporter
or correspondent can keep q straight
face and avoid bursting out in laugh
ter when the royal physician solemn
ly states" that the trouble Is just q
very slight cold. When any doctor
makes such an announcement con-
corning . patient, either the doctor
doesn't know what really ais the pa
tient or else he IS trying to satisfy
the curiosity Of the public ana con-
ceal fom public knowledge the ma
ture Of the illness.

tional State witnesses today to

Dale S. Crowley, pastor Of Jones
boro Baptist Tabernacle, for the
asserted church feud Staying Of
8. W. MacMurdo, aged night

Of worshippers were startled when
o volley of shots were fired in
the church hallway.
Investigating, Mrs. Coleman
said she found the 68-year-old
janitor and night watchman half
isitttng and half lying on the
floor, unarmed. Standing nearby
was the Rev. Crowley, she said.
Rigid questioning by counsel

fired in rapid succession.
Pastor is Calm

wife at his side at the counsel
table, sat apparently unperturbed

MILO RENO HAS
THIRD PARTY
Il. ri 4 7

NEW YORK, Jan. 4 (I.N.S.).
"The Democratic party Is drift
ing toward Russian cOmmu-
nism or q dictatorship and the
Republican party is beyond
hope Of resurrection"
Milo Reno, exponent Of the
farmers holiday cause, thus ex-
pressed his reasons today for
coming to New York to advocate
a third party movement. He will
speak tonight at Cooper Union at
the invitation Of the Farmer La
Dor Federation. He said:
President Roosevelt has sur
rounded himself with a lot Of
alleged intelIectualS. Nine out
Of ten Of them are intellectual
jackaSses. They have Russian
lied America"
GROWS FEROCIOUS
His scanned, leathery face as
sumed q ferocious expression as
he quoted passage after passage
from the Constitution. He said:
"All Of our troubles have
resulted from a reasonable
disregard of the Constitution.
They'll have to show me that
the Constitution isn't broad
enough to do anything that's
necessary to promote prosperity
Of our people"
Asked whether it is not possible
that the Constitution is out-dated,
Reno smiled grimly and said:
"The Ten Commandments
were written 5000 years ago.
Things that are fundamental
don't change with q changing
world"
THIRD PARTY SALVATION
The panacea for all our politi-
cal and social ills, according to
Reno, lies in the formation Of a
third party. He explained:
"People who believe in q
representative government such
as Jefferson and Lincoln stood
for can find expression only
through the organization of an
Independent party. Some or
ganized power must preserve
this Republic for the people"

RITTER IS SUED
FOR UNPAID
AL|MONY

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-The sepa-
ration agreement entered into in
1922 by William Mcclellan Ritter,
lumberman, Of Washington, D. c.,
and his wife, Mrs. Gertrude De-
vine Ritter, now Mrs. Hugh Web
ster, contained not only the details
of q financial and property settle
ment, but even made provision for
the distribution of the family
liquors.
Mrs. Webster, who received
$500,000 under the agreement
and was to receive $4,000 a year
for life, Is suing Ritter for $48,-
| 72O, which she alleges is due and
UNPAID under the annuity pro-
vision Of the agreement.
Mrs. Webster testified before
Justice Aron Steuer and q jury
that the agreement provided that
Ritter was to have all the whisky
and gin in the Ritter home, but
that the wine was to be divided
equally between them.
Mrs. Webster also testified that
in 1922, the year the separation
agreement was signed IN Phila-
delphia, she divorced Ritter in
Vermont, on the ground of his al
legged intolerable cruelty-"not to
me, but because he beat the dogs
and horses"
Married In 1898
Mr.. and Mrs. Ritter were mar.
ried in 1898 and separated in 1921.
Under the agreement made in
1922 the then Mrs. Ritter received,
besides the cash and yearly allow
ance, the family home in Wash
ington, a country estate at Man.
chester, N. H., the latter consist
ing Of q 40-room house on a 700
acre tract; valuable paintings, an
tique furniture, stables, garage and
share of the family wine.
Mrs. Webster testified that she
had made but two visits to West
Virginia, under whose laws Ritter
seeks to have the validity of the
agreement tested. Mrs. Webster
said that when she married the
defendant he was a man of small
means and his education was
inferior to hers. She said she was
anxious to aid him in his career
and wrote speeches which he de-
liVered at conventions. Under
croSS-eXamination Mrs. Webster
admitted that Ritter, in the fall
of 1921, a few months before the
separation, had taken oath that
his fortune amounted to only
$3,000,O 900.
Settlement Drawn
About that time Ritter drafted
his proposals of a settlement with
his wife. One Of his proposals
was that he give his wife $1,000
900, a down payment Of 1000
and the rest in yearly installmentS
of 100000, with interest Of 6 per
cent.
Mrs. Webster said her trouble
with Mr.. Ritter in 1921 came
about through her solicitude for
some babies in Washington whom
she wanted to take to a home
they had in Vermont. She carried
out the plan, supplied nurses for
the children and paid their ex-
penses out Of monies provided for
her clothing. She said:
"But Mr.. Ritter was ugly
about it because 1 was praised
SO highly for my SOIicitude for
the babies" said Mrs. Webster,

United Press Staff Correspondent
AUGUSTA. Ga. March 24.-Good
morning, brethern and sistern. l
trust you will excuse me while I
climb out on this nice leafy, south
ern exposure limb and pick Mac
Donald Smith of the carnouiste
Smiths to win the masters invi-
tation golf tournament.
Yep, my money says that come
twilight on Sunday afternoon, old
Mac, with the polly-want- crack
er-noSe. the man who has been
playing golf since they used feather
balls, will be out there in front.
This is pretty nervy of me, for
right now, with Sc of the 70 holes
completed, his IA Is a couple of
strokes shy of being the best. But
had a tip-a red hot tip. I'd like
TO tell you where it came from,
but being as the man gave it to
me is still in the middle of the
fight for the championship, 1
can't.
This is what this guy tells me,
and you may believe me when l
say that he is a very authentic
source of information. He says
that Macdonald can't miss because
the Augusta national course, over
which the tournament is being
played, was built just for him.
Macdonald, it seems, is one of
those rare birds who plays his
shots clean, meaning that he never
digs a divot or takes any turf
with his shots. To be at his best.
Smith needs a course with fair
ways that have grass with plenty
