When the trial reopened yesterday
counsel for the defense asked the
court to dimiss the case against
Mrs. Brunen on the ground that the
state had failed to prove her either
principal or an accomplice of the
crime. Justice Kalische ruled that
although the testimony against Mrs.
Brunen was scant, it was the jury’s
duty to pass upon her innocence

Mrs. Brnnen denied she ever called
her husband a brute or that be
cruel to her, “except when he wa

trouble with him. She said she had
forgiven Hasel Brnnen, her step
daughter, for what she had said
against her when she testified for the
state.

Harold Lloyd saya that ft took four

'Grandma’s Boy,”—that final laugh

in a line-up of laugh-producing photo
plays that have not had one mark

Is always a step forward, and “Grand-
Boy” is a mighty big stride
ahead.
It is five reels and Its laughs, thrills
snd suspense are built around a theme
serious as the psychology of fear.
Lloyd is seen as the bashful small
town boy, afraid of his own shadow.

A CARD FROM JUDGE
J. S. MONTGOMERY TO
THOMASVILLE PEOPLE
One never knowe what influence
will cause one to change his mind.
I resisted the call to stand for a place
on the aldermanlc ticket for days,
only to yield to the pressure
last; the very same experience of the
present board four years ago. I ven
ture that not one of them voluntarily
announced himself, but yielded to the
pressure of the public to allow the use
of his name. Inasmuch as the
office of alderman is not a position of
honor or emolument, but a place of
public service, it Is a severe test of
one’s loyalty and patriotism, and he
can hardly decline.
I have been a citizen of Thomasville
now for more than forty years, and I
think It is the best place in the wide
world, and I had rather live here than
any place this side of Heaven, so If

I believe in a clean city, both from
the standpoint of sanitation and
als, sanitation, for the sake of health
conditions, and good morals for the
sake of the people. I believe It a good
policy for the City to extend watsr
mains, and sewerage to the congested
residence sections, even remote from
the center of the City, that tho people
may have Improved health conditions,
snd fire hydrants that they may
have protection for their homes
This should be done just as fast aa the
finances of the City will Justify.
I strongly believe in an economical
administration of the City’s affairs. In
the recent years, economy seems tu
have become a lost art Those in con
trol of corporations, municipal, Coun
ty, State and National are perhaps
viewing with alarm the ever-growing
expenditures, and are working over
