aridently Mends of John Karis, a
ortland jitnejr driver who was sen
meed to the penitentiary following
!s conviction on a charge of rob
ry committed at the Scottsburg
marrv. wherein it Is claimed that
f-ko Zlock. co-defendant w'th Ka-

tat Karis was not Implicated tn
ke robbery. The letters request the
tlsirirt attorney to make a further
mvestiratlon and recommend a par
Ion for Karis. From the similarity
it the letters it Is evident that they
fere all dictated by the same per
ian who Is working earnestly In the
Klialf of the jitney driver.
i Attorney N'euner. recently explaln
4 the whole affair to Oovernor Ol
tt and also to the secretary of the
role board, and thl morning re
vived a letter sent the governor by
ke secretary and referred to Mr.
tenner. In this letter It is stated
km Mike Zelnek recently appeared
fore the parole board" and save
a account of the robbery in which
M implicated John Karis equally
rlth himself. His account was de
fied and there Is no question as
the guilt of either of tha two
itate prisoners.
Jin his statement Mike referred
Joe Juvich as being perfectly In
ascent of complicity In the crimn
! the officials are Inclined to be
tve that way and have requested
he district attorney's advice con
erniiiK leniency.
Mr. Neuner Ifrnm the outset has
fltertalned the theory that Joe. nl
hough guilty from the standpoint
if law was Induced Into the com
alKHion of the crime hv his cotn
nlnns under a pretense of seekine
r employment. However, he did
lot demur, after ascertaining the
rpose of the trip and therefore in
ie eves of the law Is deemed guilty,
i Just what the district attorney will
commend is yet uncertain. He
of the opinion that Juvich should
rlvon leniency of some nature
t has not yet decided the answer
will make to the parole board.
U the time sentence was passed he
commended deportation for Juvich

The widow's mite of Scriptural
story has a modern prototype In the
remarkable contribution of Mrs.
Bert Holms, eff North Bend Ore
gon. Mrs. Holms, like many an
other housewife of Blender lncomo
found herself unable to' give as she
desired from her husband's wages
to the cause of the church. She was
particularly touched by the appeal
on behalf of missions and determin
ed to find a way to capitalize her
desire to help. Therefore Bhe wen
out to work during odd times thn
she could spare from her household
duties, resolved to devote nil dC thi'f
earnings to the service or cnrisr.
By dint, of wahslng. house clean-
Ing and other menial tasks she go. j
togetner 30 in lime ror ine unan-
clal Ingathering of the North Bend
Presbyterian church. Thin was sent I
to Presbyterian headquarters at 15S I
Fifth Avenue. New York City, as
constituting the largest single con
tribution made to the Presbyterian
missions after a special solicitation
following a series of studies on the
needs of Africa and the plans of the
Presbyterian church In that benigh
ted land.
Receipt of this contribution, with '
the details of how the money was
earned by the hard labor of a frait j
women, made a profound Impression
nmong the leaders of the Presbyter
ian church who felt that -if all th
church members everywhere were as
zealous In the Master's service as
Mrs. Holms the work of the King
dom would speed to realization for
the evangelism of all nations.
In transmitting Mrs. Holm's eif
the officials of the North

they knew something of the intrica

had reached Salem they were con

however, they beean to lose roKi

presence of a marked deck. He
"ha rued the nrofessionals with being
