HARRISBURG, Pa., February 18— The Susquehanna River has given up the body of Miss Verna Klink, 31-year- old candy store manager, and the po- lice today announced that Harry B. Bowman, perfume salesman, probably would be charged with her murder. Bowman has been held in the county jail since his arrest on January 28, three days after Miss Klink dis- appeared, but the charges against him were those resulting only from his ad- missions that money found on him had belonged to the missing woman. He was successively accused of robbery, prisoners treated. ‘Traynor then took Alphonse Deserio, | and Samuel Schwartz. 26, of Newark, N. J,, and John Romeser, 326, of West Orange, N.

Today “Standard” outsells any other gasoline by more than two gallons to one. Experience and research have built the following qualities into “Standard” Gasoline— Easy Starting —in coldest weather. Qm’ck Acceleration — necessary in traffic. Power, Steady and Reliable —for hills and long, hard runs. M ileage Efliciency —proved over and over by road tests in every type of car. Safety to Motor—a fuel that cannot possibly injure your engine. Complete Combustion — it burns cleanly, leaving practically no carbon, and burns completely, leaving no “‘loose ends” to dilute the motor oil. Um'for mity—you can set your carburetor on ‘‘Standard”’ and forget it, for each gallon is like every other gallon wherever you may buy it. Availability —Standard” Gasoline has the further ad- vantage of being easily obtained, as ‘‘Standard’ pumps are conveniently located throughout the length and breadth of this State. “Standard” Gasoline solves the fuel problem for the motorist. In “Standard” he gets the best gaso- line money can buy. Each year “Standard” reaches new peaks in sales and rises to new heights of public favor. If you are not a “Standard” user, try this product and see for yourself how satisfactory it really is. There is no truly “anti-knock” motor fuel being sold, except at a premium price. The best known “anti-knock” fuel is. ESSO, the Giant Power Fuel. Itis acknowl- edged by engineers to be inaclass by itself—a genuine “anti-knock” fuel, specially made for. use |in high compression motors, and in motors that are carbonized from long usage. ESSO costs more to make,and has to be sold at a small premium over “Standard’” Gasoline, but ESSO gives an extra engine perform- ance never before experienced.

That search came to an end yester- day, when, after 23 days of futile drag- ging of the river near the spot where the woman was last seen, her body was found 3 miles down the stream, caught against a rock 35 feet from Shore. Aside from saying he was “glad they found her,” and reiterating his asser- tion that he did not kill her, Bowman remained silent when told that Miss Klink’s body had been recovered. He has maintained that he was aiding the woman: to buy the candy store of which she was manager, and that on the night of her disappearance she jumped into the river while despondent because she could not complete the transaction. Police say he quoted the girl as urging him to commit suicide also. He explained that he jumped into the water when the woman leaped, but became {frightened and crawled ashore, . Comb Makers Complain. If there is any return to long tresses, workers of the comb factory at Aber- deen, Scotland, have not noticed it. The past year, they say, has been one of the blackest for the Hutcheon street plant, which, during the days of long hair, was the largest comb producer in the world,- Instead of a crowded sched- ule, there has been only restricted and {rregular employment. “STANDARD” NEED FOR CHARITY TOLD ‘ SOCIETY IN ADDRESSESi Rev. Edward P. McAdams and Rev. | John 0’Grady Speak at Quar- terly Meeting. The kind of charity that Christ| dispensed s typified in madern times by | the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Rev. | Edward P. McAdams told the regular | quarterly meeting of the society, held | yesterday in St. Joseph’s Church and | School, Second and C streets northeast. | Taking as his text “The Poor Wil!| Always Be With You,” Father McAdams, who is pastor of §t. Joseph's, asserted that approximately 85 per cent of the people of the United States are really poor, with many in straightened circum- stances, ‘The rule of sccrecy in charitable matters did not permit the Society of St. Vincent de Paul to become part of | the Community Chest fund for Wash- ington, Father McAdams explained. Misunderstanding has arisen with regard to the care of dependent families under the Community Chest fund, Rev. Dr. John O'Grady. director of Catholic Charities in Washington, told the society. Other speakers included George J. Cleary, Allen Pope, William H. De Lacy and John Hadley Doy “A baby needs something every week.” “S0o does a car"—Louisville Courier.
