BABY DESERTER FREED;FLOODED WITHPRESENTS Mother of Abandoned Child Receives Wardrobe Fit for Society Girl. The mother of "the Indianapolis “rain baby,'’ who came to Marion county jail several weeks' ago with only one dress to her name and a mere tam-o-shanter as her headdress, left the jail in triumph Monday afternoon. Released on bond, Mrs. Sally Marie Breedlove, 21, of Bloomington, who has admitted she abandoned her year-old son Robert Eugene on a country road near Indianapolis, carried from the jail with her presents of clothing which gave her a wardrobe equal to that of many society girls. Soon after her arrest and confession that she was mother of the child found in a driving rain seven hours after she had left it there, Mrs. Breedlove began to receive the presents. All were anonymous. Six Pairs of Hose Among them were six dresses, some of silk and some of wool. Two hats, one of the “picture” variety, in fine boxes were among the presents sent her. The girl who came to jail with only one pair of cotton hose, darned in several places, left the jail wearing silk hose and carried five extra pair of silk hosiery with her. A fine coat came from one department store, with no name to identify its purchaser. Three suitcases, one with a fine inbuilt toilet set and another with hangers for dresses, and a fine silk kimono were among other gifts. Faces Long Term Mrs. Breedlove and Miss Bess Robbins, her attorney, were loaded heavily when the girl left the jail. She will appear in juvenile court Wednesday to answer charges of child neglect, which may carry a prison sentence of six months and a fine of not more than SSOO. “I wish I could see my baby again before my trial.” Mrs. Breedlove said as she left the jail. The rain baby is held at the children’s guardians’ home and Mrs. Breedlove has seen it only once since her arrest. Jail attaches discredited rumors that Mrs. Breedlove had “gone shopping” late Monday and “spent $500.” Deliveries of wearing apparel had been coming to her at the jail for days, they said.

NO USE TO FRET, SAYS CHIC SALE
The government had added up all the money in circulation and averaged it out and finds that every man, woman and child in the United States is worth $37 in cash. So there you are. Maybe you thought you was worthless, but you see now that you ain’t. Don’t dive off of high springin’ boards or walk in front of speedin’ automobiles, because if you do and git killed, then that s jest throwin’ $37 away. And $37 ain't any small sum. If you have got a wife and eight or ten children, it mounts up. Figgerin’ jest one wife and four children at $37 per each, it’s enough to buy a second-hand auto and go on a picnic. And everybody likes picnics. So there ain't any use in worrym’ about hard times. If you git to feelin’ blue and thinking’ you picked the wrong line of business. jest say to yourself that —n * /'“v> " v O ft you are worth $37 —even if you bjJulA. Vo OJat. ain't got it.

KILLER IS EXECUTED Ohio Convict Put to Death in Electric Chair. Bv I'nited Press COLUMBUS, 0., May 27.—John Richardson, 22, who was granted a month’s respite from the electric chair at the demand of his mutinous fellow convicts duirng the height of the Ohio state prison rebellion, was put to death Monday night. It was the first execution since the fire which took more than 320 lives. Richardson was convicted of murdering a waiter during the holdup of an Akron roadhouse in September, 1929. BLUFF ROAD LIKELY TO BE KEPT OPEN Construction of Overhead Span Appears Feasible, Says McKinney. The Bluff road crossing, subject of South Side Civic Club resolutions for the past five years, may remain open as result of a tentative decision of the works board, according to E. Kirk McKinney, president. Construction of an opqp span over Bluff road appeared to be feasible, McKinney said after a conference with Belt railroad officials. The construction of a fifty-foot span will result in a $25,000 saving under the estimate of costs for building anew roadway joining Bluff road with Meridian street south of the railroad tracks. Plans for the Meridian street overhead will be cut from seventyeight to sixty feet to permit the change in program. South side residents have opposed the closing. ROBBED WHILE PRAYING Woman Reports 55.75 Taken From Purse on Altar Rail. Devout worshipers closed their eyes in prayer at a Negro church at 1102 Chocolate street Monday night. While Mrs. Beatrice Tate, Negro, of 1146 Maple street, prayed, some one extracted $5.75 from her purse, lying on the altar rail, she reported to police. Police failed to find the cash.

FACTS OR FANCIES -WHICH DO YOU BUY? So many tooth pastes today promise in a loud voice—and perform in a mere whisper —that many people get “fed up” on tooth paste advertising.

While cleaning and whitening, Pebeco stimulates the salivary flow, helping Nature check the destructive mouth acids. Are you missing this extra value? Try Pebeco.— Add.
