PRISONER GOES
TO COUNTY JAIL
MINUS BREECHES
Trouaerleaa, but protected from
a chill wind by a suit of billowy
winter underwear, a Dallas man
was transferred from the city to
the county jail Friday morning and
a charge of theft under $60 was
docketed against him.
“Where’s your pants?” Deputy
Sheriff Allen Seale asked as the
man was led from the city jail.
“Dunno and don’t care,” was the
response.
“Fine. If you feel that way about
it we’ll go out the front way,” Of-
ficer Seale replied. "And be sure
you walk slow.’’
City officials briefly explained
the man’s plight to the officer. He
was alleged to have stolen a suit,
they said, and was lodged in the
city jail. Proprietors of a clothing
store identified the clothes as
theirs and insisted on their imme-
diate return while the man was still
in jail.
"Let ’em have ’em,” he told of-
ficers.
They did.—Dallas Times-Herald.

TOO MANY ITS
ON ONE QUARTER
Boston, Mass., March 29.—One
wealthy Boston business man just
will not carry a quarter. Not that
he doesn’t believo it’s good money,
but he just doesn't like the number
“thirteen.”
It seems that one day he found,
on examining a quarter, that there
are thirteen stars above the eagle
on the coin, that the eagle clutches
thirteen arrows in one set of claws
and a sprig with thirteen fronds in
the other.
Then he further discovered that
the words “E Pluribus Unum" com-
prises thirteen letters and that
“quarter dollar" total the same
amount.
STARVATION IS
NEW DISEASE
London, March 29.—When dull
days coma in March and spring-
time blues are particularly heavy,
people suffer from “sunshine star-
vation,” according to scientists who
are studying the effect of London's
dull and foggy winters on the health
of the populace.'
“Sunlight is a form of food and
sunlight starvation is a very real
and distressing complaint,” is the
conclusion issued by the group of
scientists studying the London sit-
uation.
“The remedy for sunlight starva-
tion is to eat lots of cream or some
other natural fat, to go to a sunny
country, or to take baths in arti-
ficial sunlight,” the report contin-
ued. “Mere ertificial light will not
do; It must be artificial sunlight,
which retains all seven color* of tho
rainbow and not merely the yellow,
orange and red of artificial light”
As a result of the sunlight star-
vation theory, London hospitals are
installing v “Artificial sunlight”
plants. v, ;te .

lice that his mother, Mrt. Amelia

nice she’d go over to Ogden park. I
couldn’t figure it out, so one day 1

was waiting on her.

SAM SHEPPARD
WRITES HOMEFOLKS
Mrs. Sam Sheppard had a letter
from her husband this week that he
dictated as he was unable to write,
He hopes to be able to write him-
self in a few days. Among other
things Mr. Sheppard says;
1 am feeling better today, you
|jit)w that I am glad of that. I
certainly hope you and the chil-
dren are well and sure wish I could
see you today. I like this climate
fine and think I will the town from
what they tell me about it. 1 have
been on the bed since I got here,
was mending some until* my old
teeth began to give me much trouble,
but the doctor has trat trouble
stopped now and will pull two of
my teeth this week. Could not pull
them until my-jaw got healed up.
They took me to the Masonic hos-
pital and had an x-ray made of my
jaw and I stayed there one day ami
night but didn't like it near like I
do this one. I have such a nice
clean place here and they are ao
nice to me. They give me every-
thing good to eat. My nurse is so
good to me and waited on me while
my jaw was so bad. I had a crazy
spell one night and got up and wan-
dered around, went into a lady’s
room and the nurse heard me and’
asked what I was doing. I told
her that I was trying to find my
room, so she led me back to it and
put me to bed. I sure hated that
I acted that way, hut couldn’t help
it. There was several daya that I
didn't know much that passed. I
am so glad that I am feeling bet-
ter and maybe in a few days I can
write to you myself.
I got the violets and knife, was
so proud of them. I thank you
so much for sending them to me.
You don’t know how much good it
does me to get things from home.
My friends there sent me so many
nice birthday greetings and I wish
I was able to answer all their let-
ters, but I am not just now, but
hope I will soon be though.
It is so nice for ut to have so
many good" friends in a time like
this and I want you to tell them all
that I certainly do appreciate their
kindness toward us. Kate, you take
good care of yourself and try to
stay well and tell the children to
be good and eweet to you while I
am gone. I hope we will all be to-
gether again soon.
Love to all,
- DADDY. ,
