But if the gun isn’t a le, of course the bullet alone tells them nothing.” “I see,” said Anne. “Let's eat. Here comes Toppy.” The Baroness Watches Anne RS.

Of course, she's really Mrs. irving Starke. Irv- ing is a real go-getter and @ Rotarian and he’s here to attend an important convention, so Kate decided to come, too. You know what men are when they get to New York away from their wives!

As Anne and Bigelow started out a few minutes later, they ran into the Baroness Dormstatt and Chet Har- rison at the docr. They were both very much excited. “Have you heard?

Key West’s Problem Article Draws Attention Of Fans The writer has heard a lot of comments on the article in this column Monday on: Key West’s {Problem and the follow-up Tues- ‘day. Some are for and others against, as is natural. It is not easy to forget what some candidates said at Bayview Park last year before the election. And most sport followers are won- dering what they will promise be- fore the votes are counted this coming November. Remembr, ac- tion speak lovder than “promises.” Yours truly believes the voters are waking up to this fact and will do something about it this year.
