Personality, Charm Come From Within Declares Lecturer It's no great secret that American women ere peculiarly alive to the elements of youth, beauty, complete ness In the essentials of life. This Interesting quality Is not only recog nized at home, but is recognized abroad where older cultures reign. This statement is made by Viola Sweet, who tomorrow night, Novem ber 9. at 6 o'clock will speak on Personality. Wednesday morning at 10 her subject will be Charm How To Attain It. Both these lectures are given in St. Mark's Guild hall on North Oakdale and are absolutely free. "Modern American women do not fade' as their grandmothers did. They enjoy youth to such a degree that they insist ipon prolonging that period when freshness, vigor, happiness, seems most predominant." "We must develop youth and beauty, personality and charm from within and get away from relying solely on external means,' says Mrs. Sweet. "Youth Is not a matter of years It Is the physical condition and mental attitude toward life that determines how old we are. Nothing ages one so quickly as sickness, and all Illness comes from a violation of the laws of our being." PRINCE INFANT IS TAKEN BY DEATH James Rxwsel.

Newman reported today. The state supreme court will In all liklihood be requested to assign an outside Judge to conduct the pro ceedings, the district attorney said. County Judge Earl B. Day. before whom the case would ordinarily be heard, has announced he will dis qualify himself, which automatically carries the matter to the circuit court. Circuit Judge H. D. Norton in recent Fehl litigation has dis qualified blmself. The state high court assigned Circuit Judge E. B. Ashurst of Klamath county to hear the actions. In a motion filed ten days ago Fehl sought the disqualifi cation of Judge Ashurst. Time To Prepare Circuit Judge Norton Is holding court this week In Josephine county. The short delay, the district attor ney said, would give both the state and the defendant time to subpoena alienists and other witnesses. The district attorney predicted one more upstate alien tists would be subpoenaed for expert testimony. Fehl was taken into custody Sat urday afternoon by Sheriff Syd I. Brown, and Is held In the county Jail without bail. The Insanity complaint, signed by Fred W. Kelly, Medford resident, al leges "Fehl Is an Insane person and unsafe to be at large." Fehl, long a stormy figure in Jackson county political affairs, re turned to this county August 15 last after serving a state prison term for illot theft complicity. Since his re turn, Fehl has filed several suits. In one petition, Fehl alleged that County Judge Earl B. Day had "usurped" the office of county Judge and called upon the Incumbent to relinquish it. Many Suits Filed Acting as his own attorney, Fehl filed suits against Niedermeyer, Inc.. for (100,000, against Gov. Charles H. Martin for (548,000 damages, for de tention in the penitentiary, after Fehl claimed "good time credits" en titled to release. The latter suit waB dismissed by a Multnomah county coutt. Last Thursday, Fehl filed suit, for $200,000 damages agajnst County Clerk George R. Carter, Deputy Dis trict Attorney George W. Nellson, and George A. Codding, former dis trict attorney, alleging the past and present Jackson county officials conspired "to personally and politi cally ruin him," through his con viction of ballot theft in August, 1933.
