learning the facts and secured this
statement from Miss Smith:
JOrdan's Police Record Unknown
"When was retained on this
case, was told of the beating and
arrest. was further told that
Jordan was a married man with a
family and that he was a waiter
at the Curtis hotel and that he had
no previous record of conviction. l
later learned that l had been mis-
informed as to all of these facts.
also prepared affidavits which
were signed by several eye witness
es and Jordan himself.
AT the time l drew the affidavit
for Jordan to sign, l asked him If
he had ever been convicted Of any
crime and he told me he had not,
with the exception of being picked
up in a raid some few years ago.
"On August 4th, when went to
Court prepared to defend Jordan
and also to prepare a record Of the
history of the case to present to
the Civil Service Commission, l
was informed that there were two
commitments out for Jordan and
that he would be picked up imme-
diately and sent to the workhouse
for four or five months.
81 confronted Jordan with these
commitments and he then told me
that he had been convicted for mis-
use of funds and given a 90-day
sentence and later a 6O-day SEN
tence and at both times he had
been given a fioater.
81 then realized that l was up
against a bad situation. l asked
Jordan if he was willing to take a
chance on being picked up and sent
to the workhouse and he said no.
So I was forced to appear without
Jordan being present and the case
was dismissed.
Jordan Agrees to Settlement
Jordan further informed me
that he was not working and did
not have any money to pay his
room rent and that he was going
to leave town. l informed him of
his civil rights and told him that
he had a right to sue the officers
for damages, and after talking
with the officers we agreed on
settlement, which was consummat-
ed in my office with all parties con-
cerned present
Officers to Be Moved
1.-TWO days later 1 made an ap-
pearance before Captain James
Mullen and related to him all the
facts and circumstances of the case
and also presented the affidavits
which I had in my possession. The
matter was later taken up with
Chief Forestal who agreed to re-
move the officers. l have definite
assurance that the officers will be
removed on the 18th of this

AIOu.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR
TOPIC-Why a Nation Needs Laws.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT
TOPIC-Basic Laws for Nations Life.
Basic laws have, been laid down
by God for the orderly administra-
ton Of his universe. Men see them
clearly in the physical universe, al
though at times they do not recog-
nize the One who created all things.
Physical laws are Of great i'm
portance, but Of even deeper signi-
ficance are the moral and spiritual
laws which control the human life.
There is in the world a moral law
a distinction between right a n d
wrong-which man may ignore only
to his own sorrow, and which he
cannot abrogate or destroy. All laws
of men which are true and right are
founded on this underlying moral
law, and are in reality simply a
development and Interpretation Of
Gods Code of Morals"-the Ten
Commandments.
These commandments given to
Israel at Mt. Sinai are worthy Of
careful study on the part Of every
reader. They may be grouped
under two divisions.
1. A True View Of God wv. LID.
The first and most important
question to be asked regarding any
law is, by whom was it estab-
ished?" Legislation by an I'M
authorized person or organization
has no power over others. Who gave
the ten commandments? Verse l
tells us God spake all these
words"
Men sheer at theology as being
out NODDED, but the fact Is that
Christian doctrine Is the only safe
foundation for Christian character.
Unless my view Of God is right, my
life will be wrong. Until know him
/ will not appreciate the authority
of his law.
1. Whom to worship wv. 2-5).
There can be but one true God, and
he alone is to be worshiped. He is
a personal being, ready to enter
into communion with each one Of
us. No image or likeness can take
his place. Bowling down before idols,
no matter what they may be called,
is expressly forbidden by God.
2. How to worship wv. 6,'D. We
are to love him and keep his COM
mandments. There Is to be no sham
about this, for no matter how sweet
and pious may be the praise and
prayer Of a man, he has taken the
Lords name in vain unless he keeps
the Lords commandments by holy
living.
8. When to worship wv. BID.
God has ordained that man should
not necessarily bear the burden OF
toll. He is to have a day Of rest
and a time for worhip. undisturbed
by the duties and responsibilities

WHERE THE RATS WERE.

IF BILLY MINK didn't know
L where the rats who had left the
big barn had gone to, the farmer
who owned the big barn and the
henhouse and the woodpile knew.
Yes, indeed, the farmer and his
family knew just where those rats
were. They were in the farmhouse!
You see, the wise gray old leader
of the rats knew the safest place
for them was in that farmhouse. In
the first place it was big and that
meant that there was plenty of room
with ever and ever so many hiding
places. There was food there, plenty
of it, to be stolen. They could be
very comfortable in that farmhouse.
More than this, they would be safe
from Billy Mink.
That gray old leader knew that
Billy Mink would hesitate a long
time about actually entering the
house because of his fear of man.
He didn't believe that Billy would
dream of looking for them in that
house, especially if he couldn't track
them over there. This Billy couldn't
do, as the wise old leader very well
knew, because it had been showing
when the rats left the big barn and
the falling snow had covered their
tracks and destroyed the scent.
So. while Billy Mink was looking
under the woodpile and in the hem
house for those rats, they were max
ing themselves very much at home
in the farmhouse. They could climb
about between the walls and 60
where they pleased. The first thing
to do was to make homes for the
babies. It didn't take some Of those
rats long to find the way to the
attic. Now the attic was filed with
trunks and boxes and papers and
all sorts Of odds and ends. It was
just such a place as rats love. Right
away the old mother rat began to
tear up papers and make rags Of
clothing that hung in the attic. Rags
and paper make the finest kind Of
nest for rat. These nests they hid
in dark places behind boxes and
trunks.

"A 5 HAS been learned from pre-
4 = ceding lessons. the first, or nail
joint OF the thumb denotes the type
Of will power Of the individual. The
will, however, expresses itself in
many ways. The thumb will show
you how. In this lesson we shall
analyze the reverse of the inflexible

The Thumb OF Nonresident will
You will note many thumbs which
indicate this kind Of viii power, or,
rather, lack of it, in varying degree.
The outstanding indication is the
resilient, yielding quality of the first,
or nail, joint when pressed back

will power and the tendency to i'm
pulsiveness always associated with
the overfiexible thumb are usually
found in exact ratio to the amount
of flexibility.
In thumbs Indicative of nonresist-
ant will, the first joint may be either
excessively long or short, but often
is found with length disproportion-
