They Lost Their Dough, ’Cause They Told Cops So Every married man of modest means will sympathize with three Benedicts who wore “bawled out” this week by Police Chief Claude M. Worley. Each had reported,t different times, that they had been held up and robbed of sums ranging from $225 to S4O. Upon questioning by police, they admitted that the hold-up reports were merely ruses to appease the wife. One man had lost his money in a friendly little game; another had “loaned it to a friend,” and the third one—well, it just disappeared through a hole in his pocket—or was it face? At any rate, Worley is irate. He has declared war on such “Henpecked Hubbies” and refuses to let his department be used as a filing cabinet for poor excuses. “Anyone reporting fake hold ups again will be dealt with summarily,” Worley warned. .

GiNOER ALE, ICE RAIQSALLOWED U. S. Agents Can Seize Night Club ‘Setups.’ IV/ United Press WASHINGTON, Jan. s.—Prohibition Commissioner J. M. Doran ruled today that dry agents may proceed against cabarets and night clubs serving ginger ale and cracked ice or other “setups” if patrons become intoxicated. 0 He has told makers of soft drinks that the Government has no desire to interfere with their legitimate business, and that agents seeking to make cases against such "setups” purely to advertise themselves will be dismissed. But, simultaneously, he upheld agents’ proceedings against night palaces which charge fancy prices for “setups,” knowing that the “setups” are being used solely as a base for highballs, rickeys and similar concoctions. “It is a violation of the Volstead act to serve ‘setups’ when the operators of clubs know they are serving seltzer water or ginger ale purely for mixing drinks of customers,” Dr. Doran said. BUDGET SLASH FOUGHT County Surveyor to Be Given Court Hearing on Reduction. Hearing on a suit to mandate County Auditor Harry Dunn to issue warrants for expenses in County Surveyor Henry Campbell’s office, over the amount permitted to remain in the budget by the State tax board, will be held before Superior Judge Linn D. Hay Jan. 14. The suit specifically attacks the tax board’s authority in slicing the surveyor’s budget one-half. The board reduced the proposed appropriation from $17,700 to $8,640 for assistants’ salaries and $1,050 to SSOO for supplies. Long Sentences for $250 Theft NEW YORK, Jan. s.—For stealing a total of $250, Diego Danzi and Roy Greene, youthful bandits, will serve prison sentences aggregating twenty-seven and. one-half years.

m > S VA ar >d a girl stand in a softly rA scented garden under a summer V. moon. To him, she is the most eautiful girl in the world. Her starry fyes, the delicate perfume of her hair, the soft touch of her hand, stir within him long-pent emotions emotions he has never dared to express. “I—l love you,” he falters clumsily. “I want you to—to be my—wife.” She is silent for a time; and when she raises her head, he sees that her eyes are wet with tears. “I’m sorry, Joe,” she murmurs. “You don’t know how I hate to hurt you. But there is another boy I love Harry White. He lives in Poplarville. We are engaged. You can see, now, why I can't marry you.” At first dazed, uncomprehending--he feels suddenly sick and old. That name, hammering on his brain—it is impossible —and yet—

GARBAGE COVERS~ASKED Refuse Freezes, City Explains, in Request for Cooperation. Citizens were asked to use metal containers with lids for ashes and garbage by Sanitary Board President O. C. Ross today.. Garbage and ashes not in the proper containers will not be collected, he said. Ross explained that garbage and ashes freeze, making it impossible to empty the refuse from open containers. " The board discussed discontinuance of service to grocers who fail to include meat scraps in the garbage. Sufficient meat scraps to make reduction of garbage profitable will be required. The department is compelled to remove only garbage from private and public kitchens but has hauled grocers’ scraps for some time at a loss. r “ “ pianos ftliuiin ON THE CIRCLE trope? I Records

141} Two men are seated on a bench in Poplarville. A snappily dressed youth passes by. Says one of the men, eyeing the youth: “I’m not telling all I know; but if I had a daughter, I'd see to it that she didn't go spooning in the darlfwith that fellow, Marry White.” [nr] Later—a dance hall in Poplarville. Joe, lonely, despairing, his heart starved for a love that has been denied, lurks in the shadows outside the door, and in the sound of the music seeks forgetfulness. Suddenly from a closed sedan nearby comes a girl's 6hrill cry. The door is flung open; the girl attempts to descend, struggling to free herself from a man’s detaining hands. She is a stranger to Joe-but he recognizes Harry White'i rage-distorted face. Grim-lipped, eyes blazing, Joe leaps toward the car tries to grapple with White —and is sent reeling from a smashing blow in the face.

[IV] Thus begins this terrific real-life drama of savage hate and overwhelming love. As the lightning bolt voices the fury of the approaching hurricane, so the blows struck in this first terrible encounter merely clear the field for action in the mighty struggle to come. But it is to be a struggle that transcends the clash of mere physical forces. It becomes a herculean battle for a woman's soul —a battle in which devotion, self-sacrifice and the invincible power of true love are matched against treachery, cunning and cowardice.
