YOUR GOVERNMENTS :>>
Felonies, Misdemeanors Tried
In Court Of Common Pleas

Something to remember about
your elected county officials, his
deputies and his corps of assist
ants: they earn their money.
Basking in the ease of official
employment is not so much bask-
ing as hard work. Work made
difficult by weighty responsible
ties and through the added duties
which have been incurred in most
cases in recent years.
THE COMMON
PLEAS JUDGE
A salient example is your
Common Pleas Judge. The
bench, now held by Judge Frank
E. Slabaugh, is one of the most
important in all county official
dom. He presides over all Grim
inal and civil cases and has COM
plete jurisdiction over their dis
posal. Under the classification
of the former are all felonies, in
cluding any case where punish
ment thereof is capital or incar
ceration in state or federal insti
tutions. Under civil fall mis-
demeanors such as all cases pun
ishable by fines or sentences in
County Jail.
In cases of equity he has sole
jurisdiction. In jury cases the
burden rests with the jury with
power of instruction as to law
resting upon the judge. SEN
tence is meted out according to
the extent of the offense with
ample latitude placed in the
hands of the court.
AS an Intermediary in civil
cases he is often the cause for
the dismissal of cases where
court action is deemed unneces-
sary. Thus, with parties ecnesrA-

ed concurring, many minor issues
are settled out of court at little
or no cost.
Judge Slabaugh's record on
the bench during his seven years
is rated very high. Percentage
of reversals is low, and at the
time he took office the docket
was overrun with pending cases
totalling more than $50. This
was because the health of his
predecessor, Judge Charles N.
Moore, had been impaired for
some years, thus rendering the
docket far behind. In less than
a year he had brought it prac-
tically up to date, and he has
been repeatedly commended for
it's condition. Cases, when at
issue, are generally heard at
once by Judge Slabaugh.
Other duties take him into
adjoining counties at intervals.
Likewise, it is within his power
to relinquish his bench in Lick
ing County to visiting jurist
when and wherever he feels the
parties concerned will benefit.

deep lines. Then you think that
my singing would prove as helpful to
me as the fish did to your"
mot at first" he said sadly. IF 1t
were as simple as that everything
would be fine. Would you Like some
real advice?"
Elaine had the feeling that he
was going to propose something
drastic. But what difference would
that make? She had to forget Eric.
He was gone from her life now, for
ever; remembering him would do
no good.
"Get plastered!" MonticelN roared,
eyes flashing. go out and get
drunk. And meet new people. Do
that instead of bottling up all the
sick feeling inside of you"
Without waiting for her to make
a reply, he pushed her out of the
room and down the stairs. It
wasn't until Elaine was walking
down the street that she realized
he had told her just what he had
done before he became interested
In fish. But, Of course, such a pro-
cedure was not possible for q self
respecting girl. There surely must
be other things she could do with
out drinking. After all, she just
wanted to tone herself up so that
she could sing; she'd forget Eric in
good time. Just now what she
needed was gayety and excitement.
But perhaps in the final analysis, it
might help for her to 60 out and
get plastered."
If you dc, I'll never speak to you
again, Elaine" Jane threatened fur
iously. Il think that some day I'll
go down and give that music teacher
a piece of my mind. He ought to be

Eric would be only too glad to

man pointed out laconically. "Shure

colleen an Elaine has punished him
enough. An besides, 1t amt no

Elaine looked at him. "Has Clara
been here?"
Jane nodded her head. "she
stayed for an hour this morning
waiting for you to come back. She
told me 1t was very important for
you to get In touch with her"
Probably she wanted to lie some
more. To tell her that it was just an
accident or something. Elaine
turned wordlessly to the couch.
James voice was soft when she
spoke again and her eyes were filled
with a strange elation. Elaine
II you really want to go out, there's

free now, and Melvyn-Melvyn was
nice.
twill be a sad day If you take
the lass's advice" Jack said with a
doleful shake of his head. "Shure,

Clara, but he's sorry for it now.
If you start goin' out with other
men, well, he'll be takin' a flynn

stairs, wondering just what he had
In mind. It would be somthing diff
ferent at any rate, but no matter
what he planned to tell or show
her she wouldn't change her mind.
From now on she wasn't going to
let people run her; she was going
to ruin them!
| She looked curiously about as he
unlocked the door at the top of the
stairs and followed him inside. A
surprised gasp came from her lips
as he stalked to the center of the
room and pointed at the tanks of
tropical fish which ran the entire
length Of the room. So this was
his secret hobby! Desperately she
fought to control and stifle the
laugh that welled up in her throat.
Fish!
DO not laugh yet" he reprimand-
ed her sternly, showing her over to
the further wall. "There!" He
flung his hand up to point out on
the wall beautiful painting of a
mother and child. did you ever
see a more beautiful woman in all
your life, or such lovely looking
baby? But of course you didn't.
Elizabeth and Rosalie were the two
loveliest people in the world. They
they were my wife and child"
Elaine gasped as she stared dumb
founded up at the picture. But
but you told me you were never
married"
She Ran Away.
He laughed shortly. "Only a fool
tells everything. But yes, I was
married. was married to the love-
liest woman in all the world. Did
say that before? Well, it doesn't
matter. Nowhere on the face of
this earth were there two people as
happy as Elizabeth and lat first.
And then she met tenor. Tenors
are nutty people and this one was
just nutty enough to be charming.
He fascinated Elizabeth and for a
time I was afraid she was going to
leave me.
well, the baby came, and such
baby! We were drawn closer than
ever before and for a while the
tenor was out of the picture. Well
to make 1t short, Elizabeth soon
became tired of it all and began to
run around with the tenor again.
One night, when I arrived home,
found a note pinned to my pillow.
She wrote that since I refused to
give her a divorce she was leaving
me: that she was taking the baby
and going to England with the
tenor. Only one boat sailed that
night, Elaine. but before I could get
to the pier it had left on its last
voyage. lit was the Lusitania."
Elaine laid a sympathetic hand
upon his, knowing without saying
so that his wife and child had per-
ished in the marine disaster that
shocked a world.
"Come!" Monticello brushed her
arm aside and led her back to the
tanks of fish. He waved his arms
about the room, pleased smile on
his lips. For awhile I was grief
stricken; felt that the world had
come to an end. I decided then and
there that I was going to be as hard
and merciless as Elizabeth and the
tenor had been. was going to do
all sorts Of things-instead-I be-
came interested In fish! Fish are
such lovely creatures. you know. So
warm and tender and faithful, and
after awhile I even managed to for
get Elizabeth and the baby entirely.
Elaine Warburton, most people
have fish of some sort and you'd
be surprised to learn how much it
helps to have them"
