License for Kissing,
Pastor’s Reform Idea
Policeman Urged to Guard Over
Public Spooners—“Lips Not
Fool's Paradise.”
MINNEAPOLIS, May b.—A city li
cense for spooners was advocated in a
sermon by Rev. G. L. Morrill on the
subject, “When to Kiss.”
“Persistent public spooners should
be compelled to take out a license,’’
he said, “and an unjealous policeman
should be placed on gruard to watch
over them.”
Other things the minister said were:
“A girl should make her lips an
altar of inconse and not a fool’s para
dise.”
“She had better kiw a thorough
bred lap dog than an ill-bred, turkey-
trotting dude.”
“A kiss Is love's trademark and
may be the bliss of heaven or the
blister of hades."

Former South Dakota Man Wins Per*
sonal Injury Suit After Long Fight.
Judgment Paid Him.
SIOUX FALLS, S. DAK.. May 10 -
After ha ving been pending in the State
and Federal courts for nearly three
yeara, the case of Qua Siebke against
the McCook County Fair Association
has been terminated by the payment
to Siebke of $4,375 damages, which
was the amount of judgment granted
the young man by the United States
Court In Sioux Fails.
The payment of the judgment ends
a remarkable case for personal dam
ages. While attending the McCook
County Fair at Salem in 1910, Siebke
was struck on the head by a base
ball bat. which slipped from the
hands of a player. He instituted a
suit by which he sought to recover
damages of $10,000, on the ground
that proper protection to spectators
in the grandstand had not been pro
vided by the fair association because
there was no wire screen in front
of the seats.
The ease originally was tried in
the Circuit Court of McCook County,
where a jury decided in favor of
the fair association. Afterward
Siebke removed to Iowa, and later
instituted a damage suit in the United
States Court in this city, where he
was granted the Judgment which has
Just been paid, ending the ca®e.

Serve in Elections
City Auditor Asks for Them as
Judges and Clerks So Incompe
tents May Be Barred.
PORTLAND. OREG., May 5.—
Women are serving as judges and
clerks at the city primary nominating
election to-day. City Auditor Barbur
some time ago addressed communica
tions to the various women's organi
zations a&king that the names of
women who would be willing to serve
on the election boards be sent to the
auditor's office.
"We are having a great deal of dif
ficulty in getting judges and clerks,”
reads Mr. Barburs communication,
'and it has occurred to me that as
this is the first time the women are to
vote here, it would be to their credit if
the election could be carried on in a
better manner than in the past.
“You are probably familiar with the
trouble experienced at the last No
vember election by having incompe
tent judges and clerks serving on the
boards. It is my desire that you sug
gest the names of competent women.
It is not alone of importance to all the
women voters, but to the city of Port
land, that the coming election be held
in a competent manner, that an honest
count may be had.”

Vudorize Your Sleeping Porch
From the outside Vudor shades give a finish to the porch and an air
of hominess to the house that are very attractive. They make the poreh
a place everyone will seek during the hot, sultry days of summer. But
you must not confuse Vudor (Shades with ordinary bamboo screens.
There is all the difference in the world between them, both in the service
and in the comfort they bring.
The light, strong wooden strips of Vudor Shades are lock-stitched
together by heavy seine twine so the strips will not work out at the sides
«,f the shades and become broken. ’Pile twine is rot-proof and the raising
cords will not annoy you by curling up and sticking in the pulleys.
Vudor Shades are indelibly stained (not painted nor dipped) m soft,
pleasing colors to harmonize with your house. They will retain their
newness and withstand sun and rain for many seasons.
Vudor Shades repel the sun’s rays but let in all the light and afr you
want. You can see out, hut no one can see in. They make the porch a
delightfully cool and secluded place where your family can spend the
long summer days and where you may rest in comfort during nights when
the thought of a hot bedroom banishes sleep.
We are exclusive agents for these splendid shades in Atlanta. A
telephone call will bring one of our men to measure your perch, to fit the
shade just so.

—Natural finished maple chairs and rockers for porches, at $1.25 to $6.
—French willow furniture in green and baronial brown, upholstered
richly, chairs, rockers, tables, settees and swings.
—And the new Barnegat Cedar Hummer Furniture, new this season,
the posts of the chairs, rockers, settees and tables are bark-covered,
sweet,--smelling cedar. More fitting furniture could hardly be found for the
porch of a rustic summer home.
But see all tho different, kinds—that is vour privilege here.
