Song of the Honda, is a most ap-

used by the mcas). Tomo, in prov
ing himself man after his twelfth
birthday, tangles with timber cat,
survives a swirling river into which
he falls, drives a llama train, and
has several encounters with rob-

these exciting episodes with rather
sudden and unexpected success,
but the variety of his experiences
will be thrilling to adventure-lov-
ing boys.
Besides plot that is packed
with excitement, young readers
will get a good picture of some
of the customs and conditions pre-
vailing in Latin America. The SIM
ilarities and differences shown be-
tween the children of their nation
and the children of ours will take a
firm step in developing our Good

himself owner of winning horse.

tale will prove agreeable to all
horse fans. Even more agreeable is
the acquaintance made with Mar
tin Dennis. The complete under
standing which exists between
Martin and his mother, and the
man-to-man companionship which
he has with his father, make him
boy to be admired. Martin is a
normal American boy with troub-
les, and younger brother gets
him down at times but his knack
of facing each difficulty is inspira-
tional. The book is further enhanc-
ed by interest-raising black and
white illustrations by Paul Brown.
All of which leads but to one con-
clusion: the Good Luck Colt is
worthwhile reading. S.M.

CHICAGO. July 25.-It was st.
Valentines Day. 1929, and the
city. its shop windows gay with
hearts and flowers, was going
about its business as usual.
Four or five men, two of them
in police uniforms, walked into q
northside garage, lined up seven
men against a wall and sprayed
them with lethal machine gun
bullets.
Police never cracked the case
one victim who survived briefly
died with sealed lips. But the hot
lead poured in Chicago'S st. Va
lentine's Day Massacre touched
off a civic explosion which ulti-
mately jailed AL Capone and a
number of his henchmen.
Chicago in those prohibition,
pre-depression days, was a wide
open, rip-roaring town. Gang
sters used each other for clay
pigeons in a bloody game as the
public, thirsty for bootleg liquor
and needed beer, looked on COM
placently. At that time-a few
months before the stock market

derihg crash-control of the rich
Illicit liquor market had literally

powerful. rival gangs: AL Capone
and his boys and George (Bugs)

On that day of loving senti-
ment a few of Moran's faction
were sitting around talking casu-
ally. Some said later they were
waiting for Bugs to show up.
Others maintained he'd been
there and gone. Anyway. they
were in a gang hangout,' a long.
narrow. one-story garage at 2122
North Clark street.
Present were the Gusenberg
brothers. Pete. and Frank, gang
war veterans and muscle men.
There was Johnny May, an ex-
convict and mechanic who kept
Moran's delivery trucks in run
ming order. There was James
Clark, Moran's brother-in-law
Adam Hyer, another tough mus
Gle man, was there, and had
brought along a Chicago dentist,
DR.. Reinhart Schwimmer, who
was fascinated by gangsters.
And there was Albert Vein
shank, a speakeeasy operator,
whose big police dog, High Ball,
was the only survivor of the
lightning, murderous visit.
Police, reconstructing the
bloody events of the day, believe
the garage had been watched for
weeks by three men from a front
window in a rooming house
across the street. With the ar
rival of Weinshank and his dog.
a signal passed to a waiting
automobile.
Soon the big car, which
curious bystanders thought was
a police squad car, pulled up in
front of the garage. Four or five
men got out. Two of them were
wearing police uniforms.
Men Thought it Was a Raid.
The two phonies in blue, re-
volvers in hand, entered the
garage Office. One of the plain
clothes men behind carried an
oddly shaped object wrapped in
newspapers.
Probably the seven men inside
weren't too excited by the ap-
pearance of policemen with
drawn guns. A raid. A trip to
police headquarters. A charge of
disorderly conduct. Freed on
bond. Routine.
But this was different. They
were lined up briskly against a
north wall. The seven men
waited patiently for the Gus
tomary frisking for weapons.
Then. suddenly, the wraps were
torn off the odd-shaped package.
