As usual, morning clinics will be held the rest of this| week, Saturday excepted. A limit of 1,000 babies was set by the com- mittee at the opening, but with still four weeks before the opening of the | Parents’ Exposition and a great | number of babies being entered daily, they are serfously thirking of | extending this limit. The previous record was in Rochester, N. Y., a| city of 325,000, when 1,569 young- | sters were examined.

It the demurrer is overruled, the court of impeachment may revive the famous case growing out of Mrs. McPherson's kidnaping story. Judge Hardy, who admittedly played an important role in the fight to prove that Mrs. McPherson's story was true, has acknowledged the receipt of $2,600 from the evan- gelist at the time the Los Angeles district attorney's office and the county grand jury was investigating her disappearance. One of the principai charges against him is that | he received the money for perform- ing legal services for the evangelist in a violation of the state constitu. tion. Just a “Love Offering” Both the jurist and the evangelist have testified that the $2,600 was a “love offering.” Mrs. McPherson's mother, Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, has ted that the money was paid for legal services. Hardy was oust- ed from membership in the Ameri- can Bar associ tion for accepting the money and the state bar has institut- ed similar proceedings. Mrs. McPherson disappeared at Ocean Park, Cal., in May, 1926, Sev- cral weeks later she been abducted and taken to Mexico, where she escaped. After she had told the story to the grand jury, Asa | then district attorney, brought charges of conspiracy against Mrs. McPherson, alleging her story was false and that a part of the time she had been with Ken. neth Ormiston, radio operator at her Angelus temple, at Carmel, Cal. Judge Hardy confessed that h. :nade efforts to produce proof of her story. The frupeachment charges declare he obstructed justice by de- fending the evangelist even thongh he knew she had not been kidnap- Keyes, | ped. The judge is accused of having a tempted to intimidate prospective witnesses against Mrs. McPherson and of having warned a grand jur- or to “lay off the Aimee case.” Mrs. Kennedy broke with’ her Gaughtér about a year ago.

USED IN 184 HOSPITALS AND INSTITUTIONS Treach for a Lucky instead of a sweet” “Whirling along the ground at 231 miles per hour to a new world’s record was a thrilling experience. It was speed in breath-taking fashion. When 1 finally brought ‘The Golden Arrow’ to halt, the nerve let-down was terrific. But out came my pack of Lucky Strike and I soon was smoking in complete happiness. After the strain of my ride the toasted fragrance of Luckies was like a tonic. I reach for a Lucky instead of a sweet. I want to keep trim and fit. I want to feel the glow of pep and health at all times—the thought of excess weight really frightens me. I welcome a Lucky instead of sweets and things that would make me soft.” H. O. D. SEGRAVE, Noted Automobile Racer who broke the world’s record on March 11th at Daytona Beach, Florida Authorities attribute the enormous increase in ——=* Cigarette smoking to the improvement in the proc- ess of Cigarette manufacture by the application of heat. It is true that during 1928, Lucky Strike Cigarettes showed a greater increase than all other Cigarettes combined. This confirms in no uncertain terms the public’s confidence in the superiority of Lucky Strike. © 1925, The American Tobacco Co., Manufacturers
