WARNS AGAINST TRAVEL BUREAUS — Hoosier Motor Chib Warns Against “Travel Bureaus” Indianapolis, Feb. 12.— (U.P) —A, warning against “travel bureaus" specializing in share-the-expense | automobile trips and using the let-1 ters “A. A. A.’’ in their business name, was issued today by Todd Stoops, secretary of the Hoosier Motor Club. “These organizations have absolutely no connection with the American Automobile Association or any of its affiliated clubs,” Stoops said. In some instances travellers as-; ter paying a fee to travel bureaus in the belief they were dealing with a responsible unit of the national l motoring body, have been left stranded far short of their destination. according to Stopps. "The A. A. A. trade-mark for the , past 34 years has been recognized ; throughout the world as representing help and protection for travelers," Stoops declared. “Every attempt on the part of racketeers and fakes to trade on the good-will of these initials will | be promptly attacked by the nat-

with the HOE win <yqy<r -^1 !/ IN J First Sign of Spring Seed Catalog— The arrival of the seed catalog is the first eign of spring for the gardener. Although the garden may be covered with snow, and the soil as immovable as rock, the sun has ceased declining, and every day favore us with a few more minutes of daylight — what better sign of Spring! This early interest is not all wishful thinking on the part of the gardener and the seedsmen, for gardening is a serious hobby or ; duty, as the cue may be. and demands continued thought on the part of anyone who will practice it with competence. These early weeks when inclement weather keeps us indoors should be devoted to fireside gardening. or planning for the spring and summer show of color. What mistakes did we make last year? How will we correct them this year? Was that border of bright marigolds too tall? Wouldn’t sweet alyssum be better as a trim for the front yard planting of flowers? These are the questions we should rnsk ourselves. The answers are usually to be found in the seed catalog. Unlike books of a similar purpose in other industries, the garden seed catalog is an educationaj volume, which contains an almost unlimited fund of information about the heights, colors, growing habits and cultural needs of flowers and vegetables. Some of them are even so complete (they list thousands of varieties) that they are used in agricultural schools as text books. It is important for you to know, j for instance, that a certain variety of zinnia grows 18 inches tall, while another might grow only 6 inches, for in a border planting it would be manifestly bad taste if I you confused the two and placed the taller variety in the front row and thus hide the shorter one. The amateur gardener can also find much profit and pleasure these days in reading magazines and books cn his hobby, and relating them to problems at home. In this connection it is a good idea to get thoughts down on paper, drawing the garden, with fixtures and plantings placed on a scale map. This can be changed as new ideas are found, and by the time planting season rolls around, you will know just where everything should go, will ibe able to get through the rushed days of April with a minimum of effort, and have a better looking garden besides. PLEADS GUILTY (CONTINUED FROX. . AGE ONE) "editing” of his “confession” by Ellis Parker, Sr., chief of Burlington county, N. J-, detectives, and the revealed implied support of the maneuver by Gov. Harold G. Hoffman of New Jersey. Judge Fitzgerald continued Bleefeld's bond at $7,500 an dsaid he would defer sentence until the trial of the other defendants is concluded. Burton B. Turkus, counsel for Scblossman and Seiss, rested his case without calling any witnesses. His motion that the indictment be dismissed on the grounds that the state ’’failed to make a case beyond a reasonable doubt” was denied. Turkus then started his summa- | tion. 0 Terre Haute Police Chief Is Demoted Terre Haute, Feb. 12 — (UP) — Police Chief James C.
