He fell. Then two more shots through the snow hit my mother. Then 1 hit a sharp pain in my side. "I got the door open and dragged my mother inside. 1 left my father on the porch. He was dead." Staunching each other's wounds with makeshift bandages, the two women cowered inside the dark and cold house until daylight. Then Margaret walked through deep snow to La Pointe, a cross-

Making the Home Mom Livable { \ Friend Husband Gets Two Lamp* of His Own ■ ■ .

i jw IH li IM i '\ r I. • "SKBH ' ■ ’'•' ■■'TV > *. ’ ESH*

By Jean Prentice IF YOU want to earn the ever lasting gratitude of husband 01 grown-up son. equip his bedroom chest of drawers with the right sort of twin lamps. The kind, that is, which won'l make him scowl when he turns them on to brush his hair. . . Whose light won't hit him only under the chin . . . but, instead will give an even amount of light all over his countenance. There are ways and means ol telling when these lamps are up to snuff. Aside, that is. from the con tentment of the user! Yard Stick, Please Study the lamps some evening with your husband, son or brother standing in front of the mirror. Are the shades on a level with his face? They should be. If they're not, you might as well get out your tape measure, pronto! Measure the distance from the top of the dresser to the face of the , one who is accustomed to using the mirror. The lamps you select for

ority on banking legislation, concluded his letter with a scathing deihinciation of the "wise men” of Washington. "I think the sooner Washington is rid of impatient academicians whose threatening manifestos and decrees keep business and banks alike in su-spense, if uot consternation. the sooner and more certain will we have a complete rei storation of confidence and rei sumption if business in every line ; of endeavor. Or as Cicero has it: j "Damnut quod non intelliguut." STATE CHARGES CONTINUED FROM PAGE’ ONE mate what steps might be taken. The question of calling a new panel of 150 for the trial was believed under consideration by authorities. The booklet sent to veniremen was copyrighted by Mary Belle

this particular piece of furniture should have this same measurer- meat from bottom of the base to ir center of shade. t> Shades Must Be Big Enough 11 But, given proper height, it’s , funny how we can spoil otherwise I correct lamps by using shades 18 much too small. The ones tor the * lamps on the chest should measure y about eight inches across the lower *> edge. This is very Important. CorII rect size insures a soft spread of light from the 60-watt bulb you should use in each lamp. 0 Material of the lamp shade ’■ should be chosen carefully. Sleazy silk will not pass inspection. You will want no bulb glaring through the shade, but a smooth uniform g light instead. As to color of shades, r any light tint is acceptable tor this location when not used by a woman s while applying cosmetics. o The lamp illustrated at the bos» r tom In the panel has a distinctly feminine air. The others, however, e are trimly masculine and suggest a types that bring lighting comfort e to the man of the house when r I placed on his dresser.

i- Spencer who conducts a confident ; tial news syndicate at 155 N. Clark ” street, Chicago. Mrs. Spencer, a lawyer, said she had “no idea" u how the copies reached the s veniremen. I The pamphlet, entitled "No. 2310 5 — Criminal File,” was written .. early in 1933 and is the account of .. a fictitious trial of John Doe, charged with kidnaping the son of "Charles A. Limberg, famous e I aviator.” The defense cuialeuds . I that the infant walked from the i ‘‘Limberg” home and was killed by wild animals. Mailed Secretly Chicago, Dec. 24— (U.R) —Mary Belle Spencer revealed today that _ the United States senate called i. upon her for copies of her booklet v on the Lindbergh kidnaping dttr- '- ing the senate investigation of y the kidnaping racket. The booklet, emphasizing the n possibility that the Lindbergh e baby was neither kidnaped nor

murdered, was mailed secretly to prospective jurors in the trial of Bruno Richard Hauptmann. Mrs. Spencer, dynamic attorney with slightly graying bobbed hair, aaid she waa "only glad to help out" in the senate investigation so she “sent them a whole bundle of books although they only asked tor one," The request, she said, came from Sen. Royal S. Copeland. D„ N. Y„ on Nov. 27. 1933. After she mailed the bundle of books ahe heard nothing further, of the matter. AIR TRAGEDIES CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE with its pilot and three youthful passengers dead. More titan 100 men on foot and two airplanes carried on a thorough search of the snowy wastes for the plane which carried Pilot Floyd De Long, June Stinton. 16. and her brother, Donald. 13, and Ruth Womack, 13, their friend. o Hunt Was Costly Buzzards Bay, Mass, — (U.R) — Henry P.
