and Cote was officially reminded
that, according to law, 1t was his
obligation to support her.
Her rent was $40 a month
and thus admonished, the de-
voted son appears to have come
up with the money.
At any rate there are no
further entries on that score.
Cote is 40 years old, and Is
known TO the Worcester police
as a drunkard. a drunken driver
and a brawler and. to their
knowledge, never has been
identified with work.
In his, pedigree he describes
himself as an organizer and he
is, at present, notwithstanding
the rubber and gasoline short
age. under another recent charge
OF driving while drunk, his fifth
involvement as a driver.
IN ONE previous case he drove
l. through city streets at night
at more than so miles an hour
and was fined SIS.
Three other charges Of drunk
enness, two of them waived and
the third disproved and a con-
viction of assault, resulting in q
SIS fine, complete the record Of
his qualifications for the Office
of president of the Central Mas

Textile Workers of America.

two Scent slot machines and
possessing liquor.
This was in prohibition days.
One of the women was let go
and the other was convicted of
vagrancy.
COTE was sentenced TO two
" terms of six months each,
one for running a brothel. the
other for possessing the slot ma
chimes and fined 500 on the
liquor charge.
He paid the fine but was re-
leased on probation until June
20, 1884, when. again, he was
arrested on a liquor charge.
This caused the revocation of
his parole and he was sent TO
the House of Correction TO serve
his six months.
While thus engaged Cote was
taken to court on the new liquor
charge and given one month ad-
ditional.
He appealed this sentence and
was given a new trial before a
jury which took a more serious
view and hiked the one-month
sentence to three months and
added a fine of 500 which was
paid.
Thus his total time out of cir
culation was nine months.
The police data in the files at
headquarters in Worcester say
the young woman who was con-
victed of vagrancy told. the
policemen of the vice squad that
she shared her earnings $3.50
with Cote.
WHILE Cote was serving his
w time, Christmas came along
and he got sentimental about
his mother and applied for parole
so that he could, be with her.
This was denied and the sin
certify of his plea is challenged
by the fact that, in April. 1888.
while he was on probation. his
mother complained that she was

TT is supposed that asynlmetry
L means performance or
either the right or left lobe of
the brain, as the case may be.
but this is not easy 10 prove by
anatomical studies.
The significance of right or
left-handedness is nothing.
There is no inferiority or
stigma implied in being left
handed.
In fact, some OF the most &C
complished men who ever lived
were left-handed: notably, Leo
nardo da Vinci.
He has left a number of
sketches which indicate his in
interest in left-handednesses.
One of these Is a bass drum
" with the stick attached so
il can be played with the left
hand.
He sketched several musical
instruments which could be
played from the left side.
His anatomical drawings are
described in writing which is
mirror writing.
In other words. left-hander
naturally starts TO write from
the right-handed side of the
page and this slant of his let
ters goes toward the left, just
the oppsite of the right-handed
person.

an anti-New Deal pattern and are
critical of what he calls federal
interference with individual state

II is difficult for some observers
to believe that the governor has a
chance of becoming the Repub-
lican presidential nominee in 1914.
But Wendell l.. Willkie was rela-
lively unknown TO the country
six months before his nomination
at the Republican convention of
1910. Mr.. Bricker Is better known
now than Mr.. Willkie was up 10

Bricker the votes of Ohlo's fifty
delegates. Political observers
believe that he could win the

Gov. Bricker may or may not
believe that he has a good chance
TO win the nomination. He simply
is not talking. But the governor
has an eloquent argument. ohio's
treasury Is bulging, having a sur
plus of S40.000.000 That is an
argument no one can knock down.
But observers see also that
Gov. Bricker has a serious handi-
cap. The people generally have
not forgotten that the same ele-
ment backing him influenced the
nomination Of Harding In 1920.

sion are charged 10 the Harding
