SUSPENDED SENTENCE FOR LOUISE FARRIS

Girl Who Assisted Parents in Conducting Matrimonial Bureau Greatly Disappointed. 1 ■Louise Farris, of Princeton, Ind, and her parents, conducted a matrimonial bureau. The girl was the decoy and they used the U. S. mails to decoy prospects and the girl was engaged to about fifty sus-ceptible-fellows at -the same time. When they called at Princeton to see her she would be “out of town” and the parents would try to get some easy money from the nroapects. Unde Sam don’t permit games of this kind to be operated through the mails and the girl and her parents were arrested and haled before the federal court at Indianapolis, All admitted their guilt and were given suspended sentences. Louise felt real bad because the court would not remove the sentence entirely, saying it would be a source of worry to him. Judge Anderson, however, informed her that he would keep an eye on her and that if she again tried to blink at gullible masculines through the U. S. mails he would enforce the sentence. ———~
