A young lawyer, whose client was
convicted and sentenced, was respon
sible for bringing tile Tedford case
to the notice of Chief Justice Olson,
of the Municipal Court. He remarked
in a speech to the court that his
client had no “pull” like the one Josh
Tedford had when he was sentenced
to prison seven years ago.
The court ordered an investigation
and the pigeonholed Supreme Court
decision upholding the sentence of the
lower court was found.
An effort was started to-day to get
Governor Dunne to issue a pardon for
Tedford.

NECESSITY — Vacuum
cleaning is a necessity to
modern good housekeeping.
If it is not a sin, it is at
least foolish to stir up the
dangerous dust to be
breathed into the lungs,
and to settle on furniture
and furnishings, and finally
back into the woven floor
coverings. “Dust to dust re-
