If 4 TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ ((J.R) « Memphis, Tenn. —Fay Samuel Haremore strapped his pretty young wife when she failed to discard properly In a trying hand of bridge. She sued him for divorce and obtained $75 a month alimony. ♦•- - ♦ ed high tariff law and whether just or not the fact remains that the receipts tor imports and exports are off twenty-five per cent., which ought to convince any fair minded man that its not so good for this nation. In a number of Indiana towns where the boys have "checked and double checked” the census reports, as many as a hundred who were overlooked have been added to the count. Bluffton went over 5,000 and New Castle over 10,000 by this means. A local citizen stopped us today and told us that he and his family had never been counted so far as lie knew. Perhaps there are others It will soon I lie too late to add them and if I we are to do it we must hurry. Colonel Carlisle. South Bend automobile manufacturer was detained at New York while the custom officers checked fifty-three trunks filled with clothing and other articles purchased during a year's tour of Europe and not declared. It is probable that the family did pick up a lot of rare books and pieces of art as well as some nifty clothes during their journey and any one who can afford that certainly should be glad to pay the tax. Secretary Lamont declared Monday that a survey had revealed that conditions now are far better than during the 1921 sag resulting from sudden demands on the business structure for reorganization to accommodate a peacetime situation that had been ignored in the fever of war. In 1921 business was twenty-two points below the line of normal growth. Today it is only six points below the line, and the level from which the estimate is made is higher now than nine years ago. In concluding this phase of his r view. Secretary Lamont said: "Conditions are much better than they were in 1921, and it business improvement continues at its present rate, we shall be back to tlie line of normalcy within a few months.” This should be effective as a check on loose refiners to the prevailing trend. —Indianapolis News. Lets hope qo. Sev rai weeks ago The Times made mention of the fact that the Railway Express company, which had heretofore carried its local hanking account with one of the Newcastle banks had closed the account and was shipping each day's neceipta to Cincinnati. A number of Newcastle business men resented this ignoring of Newcastle and had merchandise shipped other ways. When a representative of the company came to Newcastle he was told that there was no reason why the Express company should not be a part of the community where it derived tens of thousands of dollars in revenue each year. For twenty years the residents of Newcastle have spent time and money building up this community and to hav? a business concern tome in and take the fruits of the labor without contributing anything is not relished. It is the same as it a number of men were to plant an orchard, care for it tor twenty years and then have an outsider com? in and pick the fruit the same as the owners. About the least a concern doing business in Newcastle can do is to carry Its bank account here. If we have banks we must have deposits. Without banks there would be no business here, no town and no jobs for anybody.—Newcastle Times. o Amundsen Mounment Oslo, —(UP) —Lincoln Ellsworth, former companion of the famous I explorer Raold Aninnsend. has giv|eri SI,OOO toward the erection of an Amundsen monument in Tromsoe.

MANY TONGUES USED TO FATHOM BRETON MOTHES Paris Police Face Linguistic Difficulties When Woman Is Excited By Henry Cumming I (United Press Staff Correspondent) Paris May 23—(UP)—An elder- ' ly woman hurrying into a small hopel on the Left Bank and haranguIng astonished clerks in vehement but strange Itninguage gave professional interpreters of the French capital the most puzzling problem a few days ago that they probably . ever will encounter. Hotel authorities, have exhausted the linguistic accomplishment of tlie establishment In questioning the woman to no avail in French. Spanish, Portuguese and Italian, conducted het to the commissariat of police in the Grandes-Carriers quarter. There prideful police Interpreters questioned her. with confidence crumbling in proportion to her continued incomprehension, in English. German. Sweedish. Danish -and even Finnish, although some amusement was manifested in their uncertain attempts in the latter tongue. The woman, more bewildered than the interpreters, but still angry failed utterly to grasp what was being said to her in the languages of either western or northern Europe. Amazed but not yet discouraged" to the point of surrender, the police carried the inarticulate stranger to the Prefecture of the lie de la _.J. J -TB-TT-I »

Cite, and there hud her try to explain her wants to various nationals of central Europe. Polish, Bohemian Serbian and Hungarian sentences were addressed liyr but one and all they may ns well have been the uncouth jargon of Hottentot or Dyak for all the impression they made upon the poor woman. Beginning to doubt the sanity of such an apparently linguistic misfit lin the heart of Paris, the woman was about to be led away to an asylum when u certain M. Prost, sec-1 .atary at the Prefecture, entered the room and heard her murmur in [ distress. A Breton himself, he immediately recognized the patois of one of the so-called lost communes of Fin- ] isterre, the rocky projection of the | Brittany cost. He questioned her. J and learned that she had made ai frantic trip to Egrls and the hotel on the Left Bank in search so het daughter, who had been missing ■ from home for a week. 1 Although the Brenton is well known for the pride he manifests in his own language, and his indignation at every being mistaken for a Frenchman it is thought that this Bienton woman has set a record for ' the intensity and completeness of her linguistic segregation.
