miles west Of Cardiff, was being aired
yesterday as If in preparation for oc-
cupancy.
The Lindberghs came to England
Tuesday aboard the United States
steamer American Importer, seeking a
refuge.
-Four laborers saw the party drive in
the direction of Speke Airdrome, where
it was thought they might board an
airplane.
Those who saw the Lindberghs de-
part said Jon was full Of life, bobbing
around and apparently happy to be
cut in the fresh air again."
Waiter Never Saw Them.
The waiter who served the Lind
berghS their meals for three days in
the hotel never saw them.
He was ordered to leave the tray on
a table in the living room of the Lind

Everything went off nicely, indeed,

Warrens and by none of their guests.
Their call made quite a nice little
mystery for a while. The couple GER
tainly did not look like pair of party
crashers. They were gracious and
dignified and seemed oblivious Of the
furore they were causing.
The denouement came when the un-
identified woman asked another guest:
(Which of these ladies is Mrs. Schom-

None of them" was the reply.
"Then. good Heavens, we're at the

-TWO-WAY JOKE.
EVENTUALLY. it seems, some one
comes along to explain everything
that mystifies Waysiders.
The column. for instance, knows
what was behind the showing of the
Caleb Milne kidnap newsreel after the
newspapers had reported dutifully the
whole thing was hoax. The reel
arrived the day of the expose. It
opened with a dramatic announce
ment that the G-men again were
on the hunt. It went on to show the
kidnapers' house, the printing presses
turning out circulars and all the
other phases of the story-just as if
the hoax disclosure had not been
made. It looked like an awfully good
joke on the theaters and the audience
enjoyed 1t very much. It Uttered
and Uttered all the way through that
part Of the reel.
