TEARS BROUGHT
HER FREEDOM
Young Woman Accused of
Selling Hose and “Pock
eting” Money Released
Kearney, Neb'-, April —Beautiful
! tears—the tears of woman- rftelted
the heart of stony opposition, so says
the county attorney of Buffalo
county.
•lane Bush was up before the judge.
One day last December she dropped
into the town of Shelton, and with
an angelic smile and n chic costume,
beguiled half the women of the town
into buying silk hosiery for their
friends for Christmas, took their
money, promised delivery from the
company, and disappeared.
Months passed and no hosiery ap
peared.
Then the little lady, with the same
"milllon-dollar smile," showed up in
Central City selling the same line,
but this time legitimately.
She was recognized and was per
suaded by the sheriff to accompany
hln^ to Kearney. There she told her
story to the Judge of her misguided
efforts to realize a "golden" dream,
returned tlie money to the Shelton
folks, paid court costs, gave the
sheriff his mileage, and was released
on a promise to “go straight."
"There isn't a jury in Buffalo
county that would have convicted
her, so well did she weep," were the
words of the count.vattorney.

1*'Who do you suppose could be so
mean as to take the two Magic books,
§ the little green one and the large
red one?” Raggedy Andy asked of
Raggedy Ann as they sat upon the
soft green moss near the side of a
tinkling brook In the deep, deep
woods.
"I can not imagine!” Raggedy Ann
replied, “With the two Magic books
we made a fine grocery store and
a fine bakery shop and a fine shoe
store and other nice stores where
everyone in the deep, deep woods
could come and get anything they
wished for nothing!”
"Whoever took the two Magic
books must have been a mean self
ish person!” Raggedy Andy said,
"Cause if they had not been mean
and selfish, they would have been
content with the nice things we made
for them!”
"We even made a lovely moving
picture theater too!” Raggedy Ann
sighed. "Ret us hope that whoever
took the Magic books will not destroy
the nice things we made for the kind
Gazooks and their friends!” Raggedy
Andy said.
"Which way, do J'ou think we
should start to look for whoever it
Out Came A Little Puppy Dog.
was who took the Maple books, Rag
gedy Andy?” Raggedy Ann asked.
"I really do not know!” Raggedy
Andy replied, “If we look at the
back of the store, maybe we can find
footprints of the person who took
the Magic books, Raggedy Ann!”
So the two Raggedys ran to the
rear of the store and looked upon
the ground for footprints; and there,
sure enough were the prints of shoes
In the soft dirt, showing that who
ever took the two books of Magic
had jumped from the window and had .
ran away through the woods.
"We must follow the footprints.
Raggedy Ann!” Raggedy Andy said,
“It may rain soon and If It does,
It may wash away the footprints,
then we would never be able to fol
low them!”
9o the Raggedys caught hold of
hands and followed the footprints
away through the deep, deep woods.
As they came to a bend In the path,
the pathway was not made of soft
dirt: from there on as far us the
nagged)* could see, the pathw ay
was very hard.
“Oh, dear!" Raggedy Ann said, “l
am afraid we shall he unable to fol
low any farther, for wre cannot see
the footprints beyond this part of
the path!”
This was Indeed quite true, for al
though the Raggedy* ran down the
path for a great distance, they could
not see any more foot prints.
So they sat down upon a red atone
and were very, very sad, for there
was no telling what the selfish per
son who had taken the two books of
Magic might do; he might undo all
the nice happiness magic the Rag
gedys had made for the Gasooks and
their neighbors in the deep, deep
woods.
Just ns the Raggedy* had given
up hope of following the footprints
farther they heard a whine in the
Ibishes and out came a little puppy
dog. “It's the mean old Magician's
puppy dog," Raggedy Andy cried,
“Hut as there Isn't a mean old Ma
gician any more, the puppy dog can
belong to us!” The puppy dog
wagged hi* tail, and jumped around
the Raggedy* a* if he thought this
a very good idea.
“Yes!" Raggedy Ann said, "We will
take the nice puppy dog and have
him for our very own!"
Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy
were sitting on a red stom- in the deep,
deep wood* and they felt quite sad.
You see, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy
Andy had mtide a lot of wonderful
store* with two Magic book*, then,
when they wished to get the two
Magic books and hide thorn, they
discovered that some on- had taken
the two Magic book*. The Raggedy*
could easily follow ihe footprint* of
the mean person a* long as the per
son walked in the soft path, but when
the path became hard, the Raggedy*
could follow no further.
So they sat upon Ihe red stone
wondering who the mean person could
have been. U was while they were
sitting here that the little puppy dog

came up to them and the Raggedya
decided to adopt the nice little puppy
for their own.
"We will call him RagB.'” Raggedy
Ann said.
Tite little puppy dog was very
pleased at this and he hopped about
upon ills little fat bind legs and bark
ed in a soft manner.
"1 believe he is made of rags!” Rag
gedy Andy said when he was able to
catch the little puppy dog.” "See!
Feel for yourself, Raggedy Ann!” he
said as he held the funny little dog
to Raggedy Ann.
Why! Indeed! Tie Is!” Raggedy
Ann laughed, “You can see the seams

‘I* or if ho iva^i’t n magic dog, he
would not he aide to run around an he
does!"
"Then If be is a real for sure magic
dog. lie will lie able to talk, Raggedy
■Andy!” Raggedy Anti said.
‘•flan yon talk. little Rags?" Rag
gedy Andy asked the puppy dog.
"Oh, no!" the little rag dog replied,
"You see. the old Magician made mo
with his magic hook, but he forgot to
tell me that T could talk, so I will Just
have to go all through life barking
.lust like ordinary meat puppy dogs!"
Raggedy Atm and Raggedy Andy
laughed as hard as they could when
the puppy dog said this, for of course
he could talk Just as well as either of
the two Raggedys.
"Well!” Raggedy Ann said after
she stopped laughing, "it is too bad
that you cannot talk. Rags, for we
could have lots more fun with you if
you could answer us when we talk to
you! *’
"It would be lots more fun!” Rags
replied, "Rut there is no hope, I
guess! I shall never be able to talk
at all!”
"Maybe we can soon teach you to
talk, little Rags!" Raggedy Ann
laughed.
"That would be good fun!" the little
Rag puppy dog replied.
Then seeing that the Raggedys had
grown thoughtful he a*ked, "Why
were you sitting upon this hard, hard
stone looking so sad'.'”
"Alas! ’ Raggedy Ann replied.
“Some menu poison lias taken the
two magical books and we cannot
follow them any farther than the goft
path!”
' Aha.'” Rags the puppy dog said.
“Then 1 can help you. for 1 can nmell
their foot prints even though I can
not. see them! Just you follow' me,’
Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy,
and I’ll bet a nickle 1 can show you
where the mean person lives!”

to organize consumers’ clubs and
ftorage tanks In conformity to sug
gestions he has made to aid in
bringing the “trust" to its knees.

fear of the state prosecuting as was
done in the case of oil dealers for
refusal to sell to the municipal fill
ing station at Omaha, has induced
the refineries to offer gas * at re
duced cost to the people. The head
of the state government wants the

Man Can't Have Time to
Hold Job and Gloss Side
burns, Opinion of Judge
Kansas City.—Sheiks who spent®
their time in penciling their eyebrows
and rouging their cheeks (they really
do it) are “vags."
Municipal Judge M. J. Kilroy, ir
the Kansas City North Side Court, so
held when Lee Ledford was brought
before him and relieved of a bottle
of brilliantine for the eyelashes amt
a jar of almond cream rouge.
The judge's opinion of the conduct,
of the man is that any male who
spends his time in glossing his side
burns and rouging his checks to ac
quire false masculine pulchritude m
none other than a vagrant, and meted,
out to Ledford a fine of $500. This
means a year in jail for the “sheik,”
who was unable to pay the fine.
“No matt can have time to use
cosmetics and hold down a job,
too," Judge Kilroy said in making
his decree.
Ledford was arresteo on the street
by Sergeant Nat Aldridge, who not
iced the former rolling Ins sheikish
eyes and attempting to open conver
sation writh girls passing by on the
sidewalk.
Explaining to the Judge, Ledford
said he had been reading much of
how the girls were raving about movie
heroes and “sheiks” who use paint.
“I'd been having hard luck with
the girls, so I thought I'd try a
little dolling up,” Ledford said to
the judge. “And you'd be really
surprised how they fail," ho added
smilingly.
The smile faded a moment later
when the “sheik" was adjudged ;*
“vag.”
