stock to the market and return with
merchandise.
The bureau of markets has a
representative here from the motor
transport service for the organiza
tion of this territory, and is receiv
ing co-operation of the truck and
tire companies. They are advocat
ing good roads and .assisting in the
establishment of lines. from Iowa

Gleaves and Wife in Court,
Kiss and Then Make Up
"I'm a strong-minded woman and
he's a weak-minded man," was Mrs.
William Gleaves' explanation of her
troubles when she had her husband,
William, brought into police court
Wednesday, charged with nonsup
port. They are each 50 years old
and had been married 10 years.
The judge listened to the tales of
"what he did" and "what she did,"
"how her family interfered," and
"how he refused to give her money"
until a moment of calm came. Then
he told them to go home and begin
all over again and report to him
July 1.
"You're both too old to act like
children," said the judge.
They looked at each other.
"If he'll not keep secrets and
money both from me, she hesitated.
"If she'll not have her whole fam
ily live on me," he persisted.
And then they left the court room
together.
