published reports That Syrian troop

with the threat that if work was

Maximum Use Of
Vacuum Pays Off

How expensive is your vacuum
cleaner to you? eGt the most for
your investment by using those. at
tachments, suggests Grace Ryan,
extension home management Spe-
cialist at the University Of Ari-
ZOna.
Two-thirds of the job of house
cleaning is above the floor level.
Draperies, mantels, pictures, up
hOlstered furniture, and book
shelves catch lot of dirt that can
be cleaned up with the suction ac-
cessOries that come with your
cleaner. Use all of the possibilities
that your vacuum has to offer.
When you don't. it gives less serv-
ice for your money than any other
electrical appliance.
The way you use the vacuum on
the floor makes difference in the
type of job it will do too. With an
upright cleaner stand on one end
of a throw rug to vacuum the
other half. Push the cleaner for
ward until the nozzle has gone
over the fringe but the back
wheels are still on the rug. Tilt the
machine to tip up the nozzle when
bringing it back onto the rug. Rest
the nozzle back on the rug to push
it forward again.
With the tank-type cleaner
stand ON one end of the rug and
lift up and start over again.

admitted that they had stolen 10

Three Men Must
Pay Farmers For
Their Livestock

The notorious livestock cases
which have been on the court
docket in Union County since
1850 were disposed of Monday
when the three men charged with
the theft of the cattle and sheep,
surprised the court by entering
plea of guilty.
John Garvey, Ernest Gilbert
and James Garvey all appeared
in court Saturday accompanied by
their attorney Harvey Grow and

plOyed since their release from
the county JAIL and have Been
supporting their families and in
general conducting themselves as
law abiding citizens. The fact that
these men were confined in our
local Jail for eight 80 months
has been a factor in arriving at
our recommendation for parole.
II. COST OF PROSECUTION.
While not a determining factor,
we believe that the cost of pros
ecuting these cases should be con-
sidered. 1t is estimated that the
trial of one defendant who was
found mot guilty, cost the tax
payers of this county at least
two thousand dollars ($200O.0O).
Certainly the cost OF prosecuting
these cases is moi going to be any
less and we believe that the saw
ing of ten to fifteen thousand
dollars for the taxpayers of this
county should be given consider
alton.
"5. FAIR TRIAL. It so happens
that both of your special prosecu-
ting attorneys are the owners of
livestock and certainly we do not
wish to condone or encourage the
theft of cattle or sheep. Some
times, however, in the excitement,
anger and heat of discussing a
recent perpetrated crime, we lose
sight of the fact that only a very
few words stand between our
rights as American citizens and
the type of government that is
forced upon other people in coun-
tries such as Russia.
There words are, every man
shall be considered innocent un-
til proven guilty and he shall be
entitled to a speedy, fair and inn
partial trial" We are cognizant of
the fact that this court and the
jury which returned the mot
guilty verdict in the trial of one of
these defendants were severely
criticized. We believe, however,
that after considered thought Is
given this matter by the people of
this county, they will commend
the court and the jury for having
the courage to acquit that defend
ant, in face of adverse public
opinion, if the evidence adduced
did not establish his guilt beyond
a reasonable doubt. 1t is that
type of courage which stands be-
tween us and mob rule.
In concluding their report to
Judge Allen, Mr.. Sanders and Mr..
Coleman were highly compliment
ary toward Sheriff Walter T. Gall
loway for his part in the case.
They declared:
I'VE believe that we should
mention the prompt and efficient
service of the Sheriff of this
County, which made it possible to
obtain restitution for Mr.. Roahen
and Mr.. Thiergartner and which
brought about the apprehension
of the defendants in this case"
