Harold, a quiet and profound lad, was not attracted by the blood and thunder tlirllls of Gardner's career. In books b)e taste goes to those which contain some philosophy of life,4 rather than to . ttere adventure tales. , I That tame human impulse which tfeused Gardner to forfeit his liberty ml her than slay his captor probably im- pfelled Harold to send a message of creer and bis picture to the man to whom the fruits of life have been taken. J Gardner, in turn, sent bis picture, tak er In the Phoenix Jail, and words of ad- VC-. is uimcuii u aouDi mcir smcenij. 1 Tnere was a touch of grim humor when Gardner wrote: "Had I known of you when I was in Portland I surely would have called on jjou." I The letter in the bandit's bold, argres Mve handwriting those who profess to djognose from a penmanship one's characteristics, might call It that of an arnbltious, hasty and Impulsive person Indicates that Gardner Is above the or dinary In intellect and culture. USTTES IS QUOTED Gardner's letter : i My Dear Harold Your kind letter and picture re- i ccrved sometime agro. 1 am sorry Z couldn't answer sooner.

Traffic Eegulation By State Instead of, : City, Is Advocated The repeal of municipal traffic ordi nances in favor of the state tow was ad vocated by Municipal Judge Roesman In a traffic lecture at the Central library Tuesday night. The meeting was one of a series arranged by the National Safety council. Judge Rossman's topic being "The Violator of Law and Common Sense." . Judge Rosstnaa Quoted figures to show that la the last year his court bad dis posed of mora case than there are per sons -in. the state oapltaL He declared that approximately 1 in every U persons had appeared before the court to answer to a charge of trsLffie law violation dur ing the year.' The daily average for the year -was 85.. Substitution of the state law for the municipal ordinances, Rossman assert ed, would reduce the number of viola tions In the state, as many neighboring communities have laws which oyffer and confuse the motorist into unwitting vio lation. - . . 1 -WATCH WRIGHTS WINDOWS- lation. .. .
