What is true Economy? Just hunting the town over,
for a bargain or two. No, indeed jnot it is not worth
the shoe leather to say nothing about the waste val
uable time. Is it standing for half an hour in some
store1 waiting to be waited on by an insufficient amount
Of clerk help, -with the false idea of; saving money?
Again, NO ! The busy housewife knows only too well
her time is valuable. The tired working man knows too
the trial of his patience when a clerk .has to rush him
through his order, giving him no time to think or ques
tion, but he submits because he thinks he is saving a
little money. But is it so? Are you real sure you are
saving, and practicing real economy? -What is true
Economy? True Economy consist of Ja combination , of
low prices, Quality and prompt service
Trade in the store that can meet ALL of these require
ments. LEHMAN'S GROCERY is doing this every day.
Low Prices, Quality and Prompt Service.

On Vital Issues
WESTBROOK: Conn., Aug. 22.
Short; discussions of fundamen
tal issues will be. the policy fol
lowed by Charles G. Dawes, repub
lican vice presidential nominee, in
the speaking campaign that is ex
pected to take hjm into every sec
tion of jthe country.

made by Mr. Dawes here today in
an informal address delivered' to
several (hundred residents of this
little shore town, before resuming
his trip to Maine where, : tomor
row at Augusta, he inaugurates
his speaking campaign.
The gathering here today was a
nonpartisan affair in which the
republican and democratic iseiect
men of the town joined- in wel
coming) Mr. Dawes.
Mr. bawes, remarking on Xthe
character of the" gathering, ' de
clared it was nonpartisan, how
ever, to talk about political speak
ing and then made his announce
ment as to his Intention to make
short speeches primarily on fun

BOYS EXHIBIT MUCH
EMOTION AS END NEARS

millions of dollars possessed by
his ; clients' families had been a
positive handicap : to the defense.
He spoke too of the attitude of
local newspapers, which he charge
ed. i had inflamed public opinion
against Leopold and Loeb. "There
are times ' when ; poverty Is fortu
nate, and this is one of those
times.'l he said. "Wildly extrava
gant stories were published with
out basis of facts.' They. said this
was to be one of the efforts to
save the boys by the' use of
money , rt:-- . , , i -
" To Get Nominal Fees
Mr jDarrow denied that, pointr
Ing out that the experts called by
the defense were to receive fees
based upon their regular charges
for professional services, and that
he and his assistants had agreed
to take a a amount as the Chicago
Bar association ; thought proper.
. He declared that the state's
attorney was asking for a death
sentence in the' face of conditions
that riiade It contrary to preced
ent, and frankly admitted that the
defense had pleaded guilty be
cause jthey "were afraid to place
the case before a jury"
i, A ppreciate Responsibility
He said he and his assistants
fully realized the heavy responsi
bility they had placed on the judge
and added:
"If responsibility is divided by
12 it is easier to sway it. But
If these boys hang there can be
noJ division of responsibility. You
can' never explain . a Hanging by
saying that other courts overpow
ered you." ,f 1
s Hanging, he ' said, .would he
more. I cowardly and cold blooded
than ihe crime Itself. The killing
of Franks "was one of. the least
dastardly and pruel" he had . ever
known about, he said, and in
justification of this statement de
clared that the standard to be ap
plied here was the suffering of the
victim.1
"Bobby Franks suffered very
little,' he said. "He was dead
within 15 minutes after entering

the automobile. He may not have
known what happened." .
"Tho murder was not for mon
ey," he charged with scorn, em
phasized again by the shaking of
his, forefinger. " It was the sense
less act of immature and diseased
children, wandering around in the
dark, I whose lives we cannot thor
oughly understand."

terious messages; from Mars, Sup
erintendent E. .ft Haughton of the

mysterious were merely those sent
from; United States radio beacons
on their new tonic train ' trans
mitters," . s a Id Superintendent

vessels have series dashes .as the
character and it is these signals

taken ordinary automatic signals."
