F.: Hahn considered legal arguments in | behalf of her film star husband, Charles Chaplin. The comedian was the target of verbal shots by his wife's attorneys during the argument yesterday and Judge Hahn indicated before taking the demurrer and motion under sub- mission that he may rule against the action on some points at least. During a five minute lecture de- livered against Charles E. Millikan, one of the film comedian's battery of counsel, Judge Hahn declared that some of the points advanced | were “too infinitesimal and tenuous” to be considered. Edwin T. McMurray, Mrs. Chap- lin's uncle and chief counsel, accus- ed Chaplin of “deliberately sneaking into marriage to avoid paying the penalty for a crime.” He said that Mrs. Chaplin, due to the publicity which had attended her affairs, could do nothing but marry the ac- tor, who ‘set out deliberately to make her so sick of the situation that she would be forced to leave."” The attack on the comedian | came during the course of argu-| ments as to the legal propriety of having facts prior to the marriage set forth in the divorce complaint. Lloyd Wright, attorney for Chap- lin, announced that a check for $7,- 629 the amount of the temporary alimony and court costs recently jawarded Mrs. Chaplin, had been mailed to her attorneys.

Yellow Cab No matter where you may be, or the time, day or night, you can always get a Yellow Cab. This is the fact that counts with the public and renders the Yellow Cab Company a factor in local transportation. From time to time as the increase in patron- age has warranted, the Yellow Cab Company has added to its fleet. In time cars wear out or become unfit for the high standards set by the company. In order that a high standard of service may be main- tained at all times new cabs are installed at frequent intervals and take the place of others that are discarded. And not only the cabs but the men who drive them are up to the Yellow Cab Standard. Every driver is a capable operator. He knows the city thoroughly. He knows the public and what it expects. The Yellow Cab driver is courteous and obliging, otherwise he would not be a Yellow Cab driver. The patron’s inter- ests are the driver's interests. For the convenience of the public and to facil- itate prompt answering of calls, Yellow Cabs are stationed all over the city. That is why you never have to wait unduly for a Yellow Cab.
