ILLEGAL USE OF FUNDS SHOWN, IS CLAIM OF DAILEY
(By Associated Pres) GRAND RAPIDS. Mich., Feb. 6 Testimony relating to funds deposited or withdrawn by members of Senator Truman II. Newberry's campaign committee, was introduced by the government again today in the election conspiracy trial In which the senator and 122 of his associates are defendants. At the conclusion of yesterday's session Frank C. Dalley, special prosecutor, claimed that 60 far the prosecution had shown the use of more
than $200,000 In the Newberry cam
paign whereas he declared, $3,7o0 was
the lawful maximum. Attorneys for
the defense maintain that the statute governs only the amount spent by the
candidate and does not place a limit
upon expenditures by his supporters, With completion of this line o tes
timony the government was expected
to call Chase S. Osborn, former governor of Michigan, and Senator Newberry's opponent at the 1918 primary,
Osborn was one of the first witnesses before the federal grand jury which returned the Indictments in the case
last November. f Truancy on Wane, Says
Superintendent Williams
Truancy among school children in the cities and towns of Wayne county Is practically nil, according to County Superintendent Williams Friday. "School children are either working on permits or are attending t.chool. According to the new state jblaw, children between the ages of 6 and I t are compelled to-be in-school, and all from 14 to 16 years of age, the rtee where school officials experienced
the most trouble with truants, f.re cither attending school or at work on
r.ermits." said Williams.
"The real idle class now is composed of young fellows between the ages of 16 and 21. You can't make them go to school and you can't make
them go to work, consequently a number of them are taking life easy." Flu Situation Better Than
inl918-'19, Says Hunt
v.ipvpn more cases of Influenza were
reported Friday to Dr. George B. Hunt, city health officer. Dr. Hunt said while this was the largest daily report hn had received this year, he thought the situation was not one to be alarmed about. "A number of doctors allow their reports to collect for two or three days and then send them in and this is probably responsible for the increase" said Dr. Hunt. He pointed out that the situation is far from being equal to that of last year.

Heart and Beauty Problems By Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a woman SO years old and have known a young man '28 years old for the past nine months. I went with him a couple of mouths and then I did not hear from or see him for about four months. After that he came back and we became engaged. The other day I received, a letter from another girl saying she' had known him and been keeping company with him for the past two years. He was very ill last spring and sent for her. It was the four months I knew nothing about him. Then he came back to me and treated her very badly and finally broke off with her entirely in spite of the fact that she had been a good loyal friend and very much in love with him. She was especially good to him when lie was ill. She said he told her that he and I had quarrelled and that I was very anxious to get married, which is true. She says that
wrote a nice letter and I believe she told the truth. TROUBLED. It is better to remain single all one's life than to marry a man who is faithless and brings only unhappiness. You yourself will be the best Judge in this matter. Talk to the man and see what explanation he offers. If you believe that he is sincere and loves you, and that the other woman has overestimated his affection for her, remain engaged a few months more, taking time to test his character further, and, if he proves true, marry him. From what the other woman says you have reason to feel discouraged.
