An amazing total of 127 cases
was listed for trial in Judge John
ID. Johnson's Municipal Court
Monday morning, July 8. Judge
Johnson offered the opinion that
the sudden increase in the number
Of cases docketed for Monday
morning was due to the recently
innauguarated one-man patrol
car system, which is now in effect
with the Police Department.
The case of Willie Johnson of
1640 NV First Avenue, who was
charged with discharging firearm
in the city limits and with carry
ing concealed weapon, was only
one of the main highlight cases
of the days session Mrs. Annie
Mae Johnson, of 1929 NV First
Court Apt. 2, the estranged wife
OF Johnson, was the chief COM
plant against him.
Mrs. johnson told the court
that she and her husband had
been separated for more than six
weeks. She added that on Fri
da night she happened to be in
car with another man, whom
johnson knows well. Apparently
ina jealous ragee over his wife,
being in the car with the other
man, Johnson, who had gone to
his wife's home at the time and
saw her in the car, pulled out a
.32 calibre pistol and shot two
times at the car. The Police were
called and Johnson was arrested
on the charge. Officers R. Tremb-
lie and A. Roundtree who made
the arrest, also found the gun in
Johnson's pocket, with two bull
lets missing from the chamber.
In his defense Johnson said he
was walking toward the CIR,
when he saw his wife and the
other man in the car. He declared
that his wife actually shot at
him, and the gun fell out of the
car, he picked up the gun and
shot once in the air. Judge John
son fined Johnson $3.50 or so days
in jail on the two charges COM

DR.. William Crane tombstone

views of other Communist ma

The professor of Asian
studies of Johns Hopkins
School of Advanced Interna-

Soviet Union, rather than be-
ing able to take over other
countries and turn them into
satellites, has developed inter-
national relations and diplo-
matte formalities among them
selves as we do between free
nations.
DR.. tombstone in his address
at the annual headquarters

fore, could see nothing but
communism.

Every authority on the sub

attention to advertisements
that offer you employment at
home and require you to buy a
kit or material of some sort
or to pay for training. But
there are some jobs that can
be done at home. Write me
for a reading list. OF part-time
jobs for women. 1t tells you
of books and pamphlets which
you can get. perhaps, from the
public library, and it will give
you detailed information on
home jobs and on how to find
jobs outside home.
Don't overlook the so-called
domestic services. Many wom-
en- refuse to consider these.
but they are sometimes the
best prospect. Many homes
are so badly in need Of help to
take care Of children or aid in
other ways, that they are
willing to be very reasonable
in letting you Ak your own
hours and are prepared to
pay well if you can really pro-
vide what they want.
Remember Mrs. O.. age is no

Adolescence
Sets q Pace
For Future
By JOSEPHINE BOWMAN

Teen-agers are supposed to
be carefree and gay. OF
course, they are in a way, and
yet they do have many prob
lens which seem extremely
important to them. This is q
time of confusion and frustra-
ton to some extent. They
have just left childhood but
have not yet arrived at ma
turity.
These young folks are grow
ing very rapidly, mentally and
emotionally as well as phys
ically. They do not yet know
what they want from life.
They wish to be independent
and try their wings and yet
must have parental guidance
for their own safety. Rapid
physical growth is itself a
strain, to say nothing of the
moodinesS and restlesSnesS
which often accompany it.
A young girl may either be
self-conscious about her new
curves or worried for fear she
will not have any. Complex
ions often kick up at this age.
Young people want to be pop
ular with the opposite sex but
do not know how to go about
1t. They often are self -con-
Scious and shy. Posture is
sometimes worse than 1t was
as a child due to rapid growth
or to shyness about the sudden
development of the bust.
Adolescence is an important
time in a girls life because
the habits and tastes she
forms at this time in per-
sonality. health and posture
will have much to do with the
sort of a woman she becomes.
Whether she will be charm
ing or just mediocre in per-
sonality, whether she will be
lovely to look at and to be with.
whether she will take advan-
tage of fine nutrition or be
handicapped by lowered en-
ergy, all these depend to a big
extent on how she thinks and
lives during these formative
years.
So If parents and teen-agers
could stay close together, if
they could understand one an
other a little bit. could be pa
tient and appreciative Of the
others viewpoint. these years
would build a vibrant future
and also provide fun and hap
pineSs in the present.

wide enough for his arm and
gently grabbed the bird. A

times our feathered friends
fairly burst into the air with
cries for their happy release
the instant he opened his hand

he found spraying and particu-

the job. but turning every
piece OF furniture over to ex-
anime the bottom to find the
source was the answer. There
you will find small brown
nodules the size of small pea.
They resemble the small sac
of spider eggs. Remove and
destroy, then spray thoroughly

calm reply to bitterly anti-Ger-
man old Edouard Herriot made
a deep impression:
SEEKS No Vengeance
"You have spoken a great deal
about Germany. You have re-
called the suffering of your
friends and your family. I lived
two years in a cell in a concen-
tration camp. Which is to say
that ! have suffered because of
Germany. Among those who
came back, I have noticed two
tendencies. Some have hatred
in their hearts, and if not a hope
of vengeance, at least a repul-
sion for all collaboration with
Germany. For myself, I seek no
form Of vengeance. My only
hope is that we shall never know
these camps again."

war and Soviet Russia, there is
