A WASTED LIFE
By S. E. KIser
fnHROUGH many years of married life
' t Augustus Vane, whose brow is hlgrh.
Has seemed a failure to his wife.
And often she has told him why.
He never paints the kitchen floor
Nor mends a misfit window screen;
His hands are soft, and, furthermore.
He lives next door to Sumner Greene.
TTANE couldn't regulate a clock
' Nor drive a nail, and do it right;
He couldn't fix a faulty lock
His wife deplores her sorry plight.
"See Mr. Greene,' she oft has said,
"He's such a handy man with tools;
He made their baby's doll a bed,
With bits of twine and sticks and spools.
likes to work around his place,
It'a always looking: spick and span;
Our lawn is simply a disgrace
I wish you were a handy man
He made his wife a cedar chest,
He washes and tunes up his car;
His garden always is the best ;
it's queer how helpless some men are."
AUGUSTUS VANE contributes things
To publications few men read;
His book concerning Saturn's rings
Appears to fill no public need.
A college in Connecticut
Has dubbed him doctor of the law;
He's great on mathematics. but
He isn't handy with a saw.
44CEE Mr.i Greene," says Mrs. Vane;
"He paints the porch or builds a shelf;
He's handy with the saw or plane.
He even trims the hedge himself!"
Poor, luckless lady, married to
A man who couldn't whet a knife!
Her husband's mentioned in "Who's Who,"
But that means nothing in her life.

Petition Is Filed
For Rehearing of
Brumfield's Case
Roseburg, Aug. 26. A petition for
rehearing before the supreme court In
the case of Dr. Richard M. Brumfield,
convicted of the murder of Dennis Rus
sell, was served yesterday on District
Attorney George Neuner, preparatory
to filing with the supreme court.
A rehearing is asked on several
issues, one of the main contentions
being that the supreme court's denial
of another trial at the previous hearing
was based on a misunderstanding of
the facts concerning the application for
a change of venue; The petition states
rthat the supreme court's understanding
was that a cliange of venue had been
denied by both Judge Hamilton and
Judge Bingham, whereas Judge Bing
ham denied the change of venue and ii
never came up before Judge Hamil
ton.
Newspaper articles also wer.
brought up for censure in the peti
tion. In the event a rehearing is grant
ed by the supreme court the case will
again be argued on the old brief, with
new points which may have developed.
In case the hearing is refused the de
fense attorneys may attempt to get
the case Into the federal courts.
