Coast Land Will Be Given Dis

:! London, June 14. How to make
'discharged and disabled or partial
ly so soldiers and sailors inde-
-." pendent of public or private charity
is one of the questions that is at
f present occupying the attention of
many people in England,
Thomas H. Mawson, the well-
- known architect and town planner,
i who was perhaps the first man to
see the vital necessity of arrang-
r injr for the future of the disabled
j aoldier and whose book on - this
subject attracted general and se
rious attention, has sketcncd out a
plan for giving the discharged men
' ) a "permanent and corpfortable home,
with a certainty, of tnaterial profits.
' , !At 'the same time, while the dis--
- ' abled or partially disabled men are
' to benefit by this, the project'is
j f slso open to men who, having done
' their ''bit," are looking for a settled
liome life.. - . ,
iv The proposition is to place these

' Boston, June 14. -The appeal
' made by Mary Gallagher's war hero
ton saved her from a jail sentence
when she appeared in the superior
' criminal court charged with drunk

listened to the long record produced
by the probation officer, she glanced
at her soldier son, who was present

Sergeant Stowers Jell in with the boche on the Champagne front.
One of his acts was dashing out of his trench in the face of a wave of on
coming Germans advancing in massed formation, July 16. Running SO
yards toward the enemy, he picked up a wounded comrade and in spite of
gas and rifle fire succeeded in safely bringing back to his own lines the
wounded man. By the time he went into the Chateau Thierry drive he
was on' intimate terms with the boche. They "got to him," as the boys
say. Stowers took a month s vacation in the hospital, but returned to
his regiment in time to take a conspicuous .part in the St. Mihiel drive.
In the Argonne, too, he distinguished himself in the attack of the Cote-de-Chatillon,
Hill 288. "Through all the campaigns and battles of his
organization he has made a soldier of great courage, a leader of marked
ability on aU occasions, whose brilliant daring has been an inspiration to Uhe final disposition of the case in
his men, - reads his citation.

LOVE AND HATE TO
WIFE IN HIS SONGS
(By VBlvanal 8rrlc.)
New York, June 14. It's a long
hark from being the inspiration for
the writing by her husband of the
song, "One in a Million Like You,"
and after two years of married life
the inspiration for the song, "Sit
Down, YonVe Rocking the Boat."
But that is what Mrs. Helen Clarke
alleged in testifying in the supreme
court' in her-suit for f divoree
against her song writer husband,
Oant Clai-lre. Hr sister. Miss
Inez Fatten, testifying to having dis
covered in Clarke's apartments here
during a raid a striking blonde,
whom" she described as the song
writer's new "inspiration."
"Mr. Clarke and I were married
45 minutes after we met, four years
ago, in Kokomo, Ind.," said Mrs.
Clarke while testifying. "He told
me I was. his inspiration, the wife
he had been dreaming about for
many years. . - f
"Before ne married roe ne wrote
'One in a Million Like You,' and for
two years I was the 'you.'. Then
we had differences and he wrote
'Sit Down, You're -Rocking the
Boat.' ,, , V'r-: v.'-
:, "About the time he was first seen
by my friends with a blonde he
wrote 'I Love ,' the Ladies' and
'There's a Little Bit of Bad in Every
Good Little Girl.' .About that time
I sued him for divorce and he wrote,
'I Hate to Lose You,' but I didn't
know whether he meant me or the
blonde." " "v-V ; '
Decision was reserved by Supreme
Court Justice Giegerich.

"to See What He Could Do" 1
About Reversing Ruling in

tion taken here today, asserted that
$400,000 had been paid Frederick W.
Henshaw, then justice of the state
supreme court, after Henshaw told
him, Dingee said, he would s;e
what he could do in regard to re
versing a . decision of the supreme
court so as to effect a breaking of
the1 trust clause if. the $22,000,000
will of James G. Fair.
The final decision of the supreme
court in the case was March 19.
1902. , v
The deposition was taken by at
torneys of heirs of Fair, who are
seeking to reopen the will contest.
A superior court ruling on a mo
tion, by defendants in the case to
annul . the v deposition proceedings
yesterday, permitted taking of 'the
deposition Jun 24,- but attorneys
for the heirs announced they;would
proceed today. , , - t

time attorney in the Fair will con
test, interested him in connection

signed by S. G. Murphy, president
of the First National bank, for de
livery to Henshaw, and entered the
checks in account of "J. Brown" in

How of ten you must have heard users
say the Super-Six is potentially the finest
automobile that is built.' '
Four years with 60,000 cars in use
have shown how to. free it. from many of
the annoyances regarded as inevitable to
all cars. v'
It expresses the attainment of an ideal
long cherished but never before possible.
r I Experience Showed ,
, the Way
Hudsons have been leaders for ten
years. The Super-Six was the result of six
years' experience. It marked a new advance
in motor cars, for it minimized vibration
and added to endurance without sacrificing
simplicity or increasing weight
It gave 72 more power than other
motors of equal size. ; v
x " A new motoring pleasure resulted.
There was power for any emergency. There
were speed possibilities beyond the needs
of any driver. .
That was shown in its establishing
speedway records that are known to every
one. V
; As a result the Super-Six became the
largest selling fine car in the word..
Each year saw an advancement over
previous models. - . ;
What was learned from cars delivered
served to make subsequent cars finer and '
more durable.
the New Hudson Super-Six
It Is Just Suck a Quality Car As You
Might Expect-We'Are Now Showing It
. The development in beauty kept pace
with the improvement in mechanical detail.'
Hudsons became pattern cars that the -
whole industry recognized.
On That Experience
A New Hudson Was Built
. Such a car would be impossible of any
other. organization. The men responsible
for the Super-Six are likewise responsible
for its development They have retained all
its earlier advantages. It is the same fine
car you know; but it is enhanced in ways
that meet the standard of our ideal. v
The New Price Is
$1975 f. o. b. Detroit
' Every season has seen a Hudson short
age. Buyers have waited months to get the
car of their choice.
When the new Super-Six gets into its
natural swing, buyers . will have to. wait
their turn. There has been a marked Hud
son shortage for more than a year.
' This new price would in itself create a
big demand. But that $1975 buys a finer
' Super-Six must mean more people will want
. it Its over sale will be tremendous.
v : Forvthat reason you will want to see the
new Hudson Super-Six as soon as possible.
