police say, has gotten into sew
eral cutting scrapes, started his
trip back to New York this morn
ing because he charged two
other negroes with trying to cut
him.
New York City police recently
paroled Lawrence, and the first
thing they heard about him was
p report that he had had two
cutting bouts in Miami, as a re-
suit Of which he had fled to Key
West. He was not here long be-
fore he complained about the two
negroes.
Lawrence's pictures and par
ticulars about him had been sent
to Sheriff Berlin Sawyer, and
the day his case against the two
negroes came up in court that
information was given to Judge
William V. Albury, and it re-
quired only a moment for him to
ascertain that Lawrence was the
man the New York police want
ed.
That was more than three
weeks ago, and LaWrence's re-
turn trip to New York was de-
layed by his fighting extradi-
ton, However, Governor Hol-
land issued eXtradition papers,
and at TO- o'clock this morning
Lawrence started his return trip

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. 10

He has every right to spend his holidays

most men working in the defense Of our coun-
try, one way or another, most Of the time?
And what little spare time they have they
surely have the right to use as they please.
No man would wilfully neglect his family.
My husband works twelve hours a night
and has but one free day week. 80 he
must relax, and how does he? He belongs to
q gym at which he spends much of his free
day keeping fit so that he will not fall down
on the jobl
We have two girls, one and nine years
old, and every free moment during the week
hs spends with them and me. At other
times we have learned to play without him
