The warrants charged theft of

the ourgrOwth of the band leaving
the employ of the school some two
years ago. Piney Woods school ORR
ginated and sponsored the band
which it used for money raising
purposes. The girls were presumed
to pursue their studies between
concerts and dances in a school on
wheels"
Their success was phenomenal
and brought considerable revenue
to the institution but the girls are
said to have rebelled because Of
the rigor of travel and the small
compensation. Forming a corpora
ton to handle their own affairs,
they broke with Jones, hired Mrs.
Rae Lee Jones ono relation) as
manager.
They are said to have purchased
new sleeper bus, to be buying a
dormitory home in Arlington, Va,
to share in the profits of what they
make and according to Daniel
Gary, their advance man, are a
successful business concern.
Judge in the local court here
granted a writ of habeas corpus as
soon as Attorney j. S. Hardin OF
Jackson and Perry w. Howard of
Washington, were able to present
it. Mrs. Jones was freed and the
band moved Oh to its next engage
ment. They arc at the Regal Thea
tire in Chicago, the week of Octc-
Der 16.
President jones who was repre-
sented by the secretary of Piney
Woods, G. E. Dishman, contends
! that he still owns the orchestra
and instruments. The girls insist
that they earned the instruments
through years of unrequited toll but
that they have bought all new in
struments anyway.
They contend that in their new
corporation of which Rae Lee
Jones is president, Willie Mae Lee
Wong, secretary, and Johnnie Mae
Rice, treasurer, they are free to do
creative work and expect to make
it one of the top ranking bands OF
the country, regardless of sex or
race.

Friday. So he's laid up while James
and Warren carry on" They just
finished Panama Hattie on the
coast before coming here to do
Broadway duty.
Warren Berry, to be so young,
has quite an interesting past be-
hind him. He was born in Denver,
Colo, and started dancing profess

had a teacher, other than their
father.
The first engagement for the
dancing Berry's was in Chicago at
the Cotton Club, which is now no
more. Since then, locations have
been at the Chicago Regal Theatre,
Stanley Theatre in Pittsburgh and
the Golden Gate in San Francisco.
In 1898, the three went abroad to
London, Paris and Rio de Janeiro.

COFFEE NOW
FROZEN; SALE
AFTER SUNDAY
Grocers May Replenish Stocks
Only According to Ration
Stamps.

HELENA-All sales of coffee Wert
prohibited in Montana, as well al
throughout the rest of the nation
this week as dealers stocked up II
preparation fer the start OF ration
ing after Sunday
A. T. Peterson, state director OF
the office of price administration
announced here that copies OF an
OPA bulletin have been mailed to
all coffee distributors explaining
the raticn procedure.
Under the plan as outlined in the
bulletin, merchants must file writ
ten inventories with their local wal
price and rationing boards OF their
stocks of coffee on hand.
Replenish From Stamps
They may replenish these stocks
after rationing has gene into eff
feet only by turning in sugar ration
ing stamps received from purchas-
erS.
Stamp NO. 81 in the ration books
is to be coed for n pound of ccf-
fee during the initial %rationing per-
iod, from Nov. 90 to Jan 3.
Grccers, however, must check
the ages Of the persons for whom
coffee is purchased, as shown on the
raticn books. since children under
Is are not eligible for coffee rations.
Peterson said restaurants, hotels,
hospitals and other institutions will
be entitled to as much coffee dur
ing the first two months Of ra-
tioning as they used during Sep
TENDER and October of 1912.
Cup Not a Meal
Restaurants which were not in
business during those two months
will be allowed che pound of coffee
for each go meals to be served. Un-
der this plan a cup of coffee alone
does not constitute a meal.
Housewives are asked to buy only
as much coffee fer the family as
is needed for immediate use. Thus,
if there are four persons in the
eligible for coffee rations,
the housewives should not buy four
pounds at one time, but rather
stretch their purchases over a pro-
period. Fresh coffee, it is ex-
planned, goes farther.
The housewife is also urged to see
that merchants stay within ceiling
ard to make rations &c as
far as possible by making only as
much coffee as is to be consumed
not allowing any Of it to bell away.
