when he waa standing In the cor
ridor which was crowded by spec
tators unable to find room In the
council chambers.
Two gins aoout 14 years old, he
said, were . talking about the case
and one stated: "After the hesrlng
my daddy Is going to have a good
Job. because he'a going to be the
recorder.
Mr. Coleman testified he aaked
the. girl who her daddy was and she
replied: "My daddy Is Mr. Whiting."

girl who had made the remark.
Mr. Whiting arrived with his fam

stall a new accounting system In
the recorder's office. On cross ex
amination by Mr. Newbury he said
he had arrived with the Fourth of
July parade, but seemed to be "out
of step with the crowd.
'You've been out of step ever
since." retorted Mr. Newbury, to
the applause of the audience.
"How much longer Is It going to
take you to complete this account
ing system you're Installing?" Mr.
Newbury asked Mr. Whiting.
"You want to keep working here
so that you can go out with the
next Fourth of July parade," com
mented Mr. Newbury.
Mr. Adams testified In his own
behalf and when he was called as
a witness he was loudly applauded
by the audience.
'That's what we . think of Mr.
Adams," shouted a spectator.
Mr. Adams categorically denied
every point of the charges against
him. He recited his experiences in
detail to show that he was quali
fied for the recorder Job and Intro
duced testimonials from ibrmer em
ployers. He also submitted letters
to establish that bis general reputa

Make this Christmas a Merry Christmas for all the family with
this beautiful range. It is an exceptional bargain at this price.
This all-white Westinghouse Automatic Electric Range is ideal
for the family with average cooking requirements. The three
spacious utility drawers conserve space and add much to the
convenience of the range. The famous "flavor zone" oven is
entirely automatic and shuts off the current when the proper
temperature is reached. Four high speed, open coil, surface units
are regular equipment.
