NEGRO WOMAN
GETS 80 DAYS
FOR VAGRANCY

Lillian Simmons, six foot, two
inches in height and weighing 152
pounds is assured of a berth at
the county Jail for the next 80
days because of sentence i'm
posed in Westmorland justice court
Thursday morning.
The huge Negro woman, a we'll
known police character, pleaded
guilty to vagrancy before Judge
U. E. Bailey. After the commit
ment papers were signed by the
court, she was informed her re-
baton but was informed her re-
quest came too late.
She was arrested and later re-
leased on a charge of assault with
a deadly weapon in Los Angeles
in 1895 and in 1886 served 80
day sentence in Ell Centro after
conviction on similar charge.
This week she and Solomon Boone
filed notice of intention to marry.
She also is known as Lillian Bush.

PARIS STYLES
BY MARY FENTRESS

United Press Setaff Correspondent
Paris, U.P) - Silver and gold
stars are scattered generously over
summer dresses and hats. Some
of the small evening turbans are
sprinkled with stars of flashing
sequins. Others in plain materials
have stiff little face wells that are
dotted with tiny metallic stars.
Large gold or silver stars are
used as trimming on the crown
and again on the brim of many
of the new wide -brimmed after
noon hats. Star embroidery is a
result of the Coronation, and
there is hardly a large dress house
IN Paris which has not three or
four star-spangled dresses in the
summer collectors. Black tulle
ctudded in silver stars is a popu-
lar choice. The stars are of vary
ing size and glimmer through
folds of the tulle which makes up
the graceful, swinging skirt. Gold
stars on lighter than-navy has
been chosen by many women for
cool tulle evening gowns.
The star pattern is popular in
other fabrics, as we'll. A garden
party frock of cream colored eye
let embroidery is designed in a
pattern of a series of cutout stars
