of Eilly Dan gey will be asked for to
morrow! Edmund C. Gaskill, prosecut
ing attorney, intimated today.
"Thert are on or two things I as
pect to clear up today and I may ask
for a special session of the grand jury
tomorrow," he' said. "With the evi
dence we already have, I have no i
doubt that Indictments will be found."
Counsel for Charles White, charged
.with the murder of the "perfect baby"
and Mrs. Edith Jones, his housekeep
er, charged with being an accessory
after the fact, was expected today to

My opinion in regard to the paper:
TAlth Joy I take my pen in hand.

Let some one do the test. .
The make up of the Journal is fine
The heading can't be beaat
The brightness of the sheet Is sublime
In all. Its very neat.
Its views I firmly would agree

Jail at Mays Landing.
. John Wilson, chief of county detec
tives, denied the statement made by
Kdwnrd H. White, Charles' father yes
terday in which tie elder A"hite de
sired Wilson had InHmats-.l Charles
had killed the Dansey boy with a
Ktone.
"Prosecutor Gaskill !s doing all the
talking In this case," Wilson said "I
never made any such ntatn"nt to
White as he said I did."
None of the relatives or friund of
White or Mrs. Jones wore permitted to
vihU them in the Mavs Landing lull to
day Both were said to be In pood
siiiHts. however, and .continued confl
' dent they would soon be released.
In all as far as I can see
I'd never give or take.

New Mexico Asks Brown For

Ed'tor Capital Journal: 1 ao not
like the present form or make-up of
the Capital Journal because one of the
first requirements we ask for in a
newspaper is dependability and the
present heading does not give it.
The desire for a change: some thing
new. .is not so strong as in the past.
Ruch rapid changes arc coming in
government and In Industrial an.l
social life that the same conservative
heading of a newspaper is a valuable
asset.
We do not like to search the paper
over for certain departments of news ,
but like to find them in almost the
same place.

Editor Journal: I noe that you are
inviting a utile o scusslon on thi wis
dom of changing front page design
and other alterations of The Journal.
I have been In Salem for several years
end have always been interested In
the Journal, because I have-been a
subscriber. While I do not say that
the merit of a p.aper depends on its
front page, yet for two or three rea
sons I believe that no one fixed style
or design should obtain. In first
place a permanent fixed arrangement
is psychologically wrong. In the
mind there is a law which causes re
action and repulsion, when any one
of the senses are functioned too
long on one thing. Thus I may tire
of smelling a very fine grade of per
fume; I also may tire of hearing one
style of tone delivery. I my tire of

Dear Sirs: I have noticed your no
tice In the paper about express'ng our
ideas about the heading of your Dane
I thought I might try my luck at it.
Every one that I have heard' talk,
seems to think your head-lines do
not look attractive. I think they look
a great deal nicer In its old style of
headline. I don't think that the
news should have a place above the
heading. It may be more up-to-date
but it does not look near as neat. You
never seen a story started above the
title. I don't think your "All Around
Town" is as good as it used to be
either. Some way it doesn't seem near
so "newsy." But I do like vonr nv.
tern of advertising. I think it is lots
quicker to find what you are hunting
ror. l for one would like very much
to see the parts spoken of changed.
A READER.
Salem. Nov. 29, 1919
contest Editor: The newspaper
that gets the most of the important
news on the first Bheet without caus
ing the reader to hunt for continua-
k ors in remote corners of the paper,
is the most progressive in my estima
tion.
The average newspaper devotes
about ten per cent of the space or its
most important sheet, to the heading,
md often thirty per cent of the space
o headings of new items, leaving less
'nan two-thirds of the sheet for read
ing matter.
Aside from the convenience of read'
ing completed news items on the first
sheet, the departure from any time
worn style of heading and make-up in
a newspaper should be welcomed by
those who prefer variation to monot
ony. Even the seasons change.
Style of dress is used to give dis
tinction to the individual. Why deny
an editor the privilege to use similar
methods to express individuality
hrough hlB publication? To discour
age originality in one feature of a
newspaper may prevent its appear
ance in the editorial and other de
partments of the paper with the re
sult that we might be treated to
"hackneyed phrases" and "glitering
generalities" instead of distinctive In
dividual expression.

will be conceded that a heading function-for
both of these purposes but
that its most important function is its
utility purpose. It is quite necessary
that a paper should have a name. A
paper must have a name to give ii
individuality so thatne may speak
of it and designate it. a paper with
no name would be hard to designate.
Should you want to speak of such a
paper you would have to designate it
by saying that it was located at some
a number on 'right an'l proper head;rg for n

To the Editor: In considering the
heading of a newspaper the thing to
take into special consideration is its
office or function. Is a heading sim

vvisn to congratulate you on the
splondld improvement you have made
on the heading and makeup of the
capital Journal.
I simply cannot see how there can
be dissatisfaction amongst the readers
of the Capital Journal concerning the
new heading and make up. My opin
ion is that it has, greatly Improved the
paper; it gives it tho appeurance of a
clean cut, snappy well arranged news
paper. It gives It n individuality, and
Brings it to tho equal of the big city
daily. When I received the firsi copy

was greatly pleased and was wonder
ing who was responsible for the
change. I noticed the new make up

"No More Sleepless
Nights" Bathes Internally
Mr. J, It. Burrows, 271 West North
St., Decatur. 111., writes TvrrlU'H Hv.
gloino Institute, of New York, ns follows:
"I am Mill using the T. B. L. Cas
cade' once u week, and find it most
efficient for keeping me in fine con
dition. It acts as a sedative for tired
nerves and has been a great heln for
sleeplessness. I have frequently aris
en from bed and used it in the mid
dle of the night with satisfactory results."
Tho reason for this remarkable re
sult Is because the functions cannot
work properly when there Is accumu
lation of waste in the lower Intestine.
Tho "J. B. L, Cascade," by the sim
ple process of properly applyng warm
water, eliminates all this waste and
! causes the functions to work smooth
ly uiitt properly.
Over half u million intelligent Am
ericans are now using the Cascade
wth "similar results.
- It Is the invention of Charles A.
Tyrrell, M. IX. of New York, a noted
specialist oil internal bathing for 25
years.
It will be shown and exnkiinnrt tn
you by Daniel J. Fry who will be glad
to give you in interesting booklet by
Dr. Tyrrell called "Why Man of To
day is Only 60 percent Efficient."
