Society Flocks
To Bowie

The Spring season at Bowie
opened yesterday! And the
perfect weather-warm, bright
sun overhead and a light breeze
brought out an abundance Of
smart new clothes on the women
folk. Some were skeptical and
wore their mink wraps, but for
the most part, suits were the
favorite.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jouett Shouse,
ardent fans, had in their box
with them Mrs. Campo el l
Prichett and Mrs. Higginson
Rogers. Mrs. Shouse wore a
checked suit of red, black and
white, made with a three-quar-
ter-length coat; Mrs. Prichett
removed her hat to fully enjoy
the sunshine, and wore her mink
wrap about her shoulders over
a navy blue crepe frock, which
was trimmed with white. Mrs.
Rogers was generosity and hid
her face behind her handbag as
the photographer snapped the
lens. She wore a suit, the
jacket and her suede hat match
ing in a shade of ashes of roses.
J. Edgar yer, Chief
Oman, lunched in the club
house with a companion and
followed the races closely, max
ing numerous trips to the bet
ting booths. The Commissioner
of the District, Mr.. George Al
len, was accompanied by Mrs.
Allen, whose luck seemed to be
running excellently, judging by
her happy smile.
We watched Mrs. ]. Bruce
Kremer practically changing
her mind as she walked down
the stairs to place her bet and
hope she didn't regret it. She
wore a broadtail coat with a
sable neckpiece. Mrs. Fred
erick Van Mugs, wife of the
Senator from Michigan, was
evidently enjoying herself to
the u tmos t. She wore a
brimmed black straw hat and
silver fox scarfs.

murder of Charles Mattson, 10

Arrested shortly after noon yes

further identify himself. Sheriff
Ruffner said that he would divu1ge
neither his address or occupation.
Declaring that the suspect re-
sembled the description of the kid
naper in every respect, Sheriff

iolding was about 80 years old,
5 feet 7 or 8 inches tall, and
weighing between 145 and 165

slight stoop, had a dimple on his

Old Age Pension
Test Brings In
Only $16.25

CHELAN, Wash, Jan. %
(I.N.SD.-The end of C. C. Flem-
ing's 5000 Townsend old-age pen
sion" was in sight today, but the
63-year-old unemployed orchard
worker predicted there would be
more for him next month, or at
any rate soon.
AS the first week of his test of
DR.. Francis Townsend's plan for
bringing about the millennium was
near a finish, Fleming had left
S38.75 of his original 5000 in
tagged 81 bills.
To be on the safe side he de-
cided, however, after sleeping late
in his comfortable new bed, he
will spend most of the remainder
for groceries. For time he con-
sidered a set of store teeth, which
he has needed for years. He said:
But 1 guess that better wait
until 1 get the next payment"
Fleming's next pension payment,
with one for each of the other
eligible Townsend Club members
in Chelan, is supposed to come
from fund pyramided by a 2
per cent transaction tax on each
of the dollars.
The pyramiding was disappoint-
ingly slow to Isom Lamb, Chelan
county Townsend supervisor, who
sponsored the test, although he
still predicted success.
After cooperative merchants Of
fered a bonus of 10 cents to en-
courage circulation of each of the
dollars, the tax fund reached $1625
today. Many merchants believed
it would increase faster when
warmer weather brings more trade.
