Burch, accused slayer of J. Belton Kennedy, more closely today, following sensational developments of the past 24 hours. Burch, at first appearing as if he took his arrest as some sort of practical joke or a lark, was morose, and quiet when he arose this morning. The lines of his face were deepened, and there was an apprehensive expression in his face. On the other hand, Mrs. Madalynne Obenchain, also indicted in connection with the murder, is slowly regaining her natural poise. "Am coming at once, Keep strength." This is the message which Mrs. Obenchain, received late last night from her former husband, R.R. Obenchain, now on his way to Los Angeles to take charge of the indicted woman's defense. Burch lost much of his composure when he was confronted with Charles S. Summar, realtor, 1707 South Vermont avenue, one of the state's mystery witnesses, who was taken to the county jail to identify the prisoner. Suddenly seeing Summar come from behind the bars to the visiting cage in the jail, Burch's face blanched. He turned his back to the newcomer, murmering something about "letting all these birds take a look at me." That Summer positively identified Burch in a way that connects him with having been seen near Beverly Glen on August 5, was ascertained at hasn't been good. J. E.

The battery that is more than "Good Enough" WHEN Prest-O-Lite entered the car-equipment field, all automobile manufacturers The battery that is more than "Good Enough" WHEN Prest-O-Lite entered the car-equipment field, all automobile manufacturers were using other makes of storage batteries as original equipment. And they were good batteries. To displace these batteries, Prest-O-Lite had to demonstrate not merely a better battery, but a battery and service such a lot better that its superiority justified replacing the other makes. Manufacturers were naturally reluctant to change such a vital unit of their car. This preference for Prest-O-Lite is tremendously significant to you as a car owner. The Prest-O-Lite Battery uses less than one four-hundredth of its power-reserve for a single start—and the generator quickly replaces that. You naturally think of this high-grade, high-powered battery as high-priced. The prices which we will quote you will correct any such impression. Prove this today.
