JUMP FROM $39 CLERK TO MILLIONAIRE DOESN'T SURPRISE HIS YOUNG Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Billingsley. When Glenn Billingsley, clerkking in a Wichita, Kan., a week suddenly found he owned millions of dollars worth of property he was a bit flustered. But his young wife was dreamed repeatedly that Glenn would become rich suddenly so I knew just what I'd do." The couple are now in New Billingsley is handling his interests in an apartment home thirty city blocks, and owned by his father, whom he reckons soon known what artesia will do. BRITISH ISSUE IS BIRTH CONTROL LONDON, Oct. 12.—England has a riddle of population. With 1,221,700 registered unemployed, and perhaps close to another million workless who are not registered, the attention of the nation is being drawn to the riddle of population. The British government is spending approximately $500,000,000 a year for the relief of the unemployed, and admittedly this huge sum is inadequate to prevent suffering among those who are without work. The riddle of population becomes more complex each day, as the unemployment figures mount. There are two schools of thought attempting to solve this riddle. The first school of thought is that represented by Dr. Marie Stopes, the birth control advocate, who declares that unless there is restriction of births there cannot be normal happiness and the right for every man to live by the toll of his own hands. The second school of thought is that represented by Sir Wm. H. Beveridge, director of the London School of Economics, who declares that "the inference that because there are more than a million wage earners not absorbed by industry Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Billingsley. When Glenn Billingsley, clerkking in a Wichita, Kan., a week suddenly found he owned millions of dollars worth of property he was a bit flustered. But his young wife was dreamed repeatedly that Glenn would become rich suddenly "so I knew just what I'd do." The couple are now in New Billingsey is handling his interests in an apartment house thirty city blocks, and owned by his father, whom he reckons SOON KNOWN WHAT ARTESIA WILL DO Artesia will be given a chance to make good soon, if it can. The Artesia Oil Co.'s developments are now in the hands of "Pop" Schneider, an operator of national repute. It is the intention to set a string of 81-4 casing at about 4300 feet, and make a test from there on to bottom, 4618 feet, and see just what the well will do. At Bellflower the Keck Drilling Co. has resumed operations on the Calipetro, and it appears that the work of carrying the test well will go ahead rapidly. Some 4400 feet of hole has been drilled, and there have been some encouraging showings. The Fairview Oil Co. has taken a new lease on life and announcements come from the Santa Ana office of the company that further its forts will be made to develop an oil field. It is the intention of the Fairview Oil Co. to carry the Goldschmidt well, the second one drilled to a depth of 5500 feet before considering abandonment of the territory. At Hermosa Beach the Consolidated Mutual's No. 1 has passed the 5100 mark, and the outlook is not particularly encouraging. The only remaining hope now seems to be in the picking up of an extreme deep sand. In the Inglewood field the Amazon Drilling Co. has the Baldwin test down past the 5700 mark, and has found nothing that would indicate an oil well. The little town of Maywood is looking forward to an oil boom, placing its hopes on the successful outcome of the Machris Bros. Arcadia well. The drilling is going very nicely, some 2800 feet of hole being made since drilling started less than a month ago. The famous Dolke-Thomas well, the well on which Fullerton expects to claim oil field honors, is running nicely. All previous drilling difficulties have been overcome, and the well is down close to 3700 feet, and is looking quite encouraging. HUNTINGTON BEACH OIL FIELD QUIET PEDDLES AUTO THRU COURT PEORIA, Oct. 15 mobile cheap; must court order." That's the way Berlington all over Peoria because Drez was times on charges or intoxicated. Each thug guilty. It was very vexing police magistrate, be like to punish Drez for children. So he said: "Drez, I'll put this you sell that car and another." So that's why: "Good automobile self because of court" THIES TO ROB P MARTINSVILLE, "IFrom them who have taken" is the motto of thy thieves, according of the county poor faction covered a thief in an amount of the poor house. Thi in haste. FOR RESULTS—Try Want-ad. The first school of thought is that represented by Dr. Marie Stopes, the birth control advocate, who declares that unless there is restriction of births there cannot be normal happiness and the right for every man to live by the toll of his own hands. The second school of thought is that represented by Sir Wm. H. Beveridge, director of the London School of Economics, who declares that "the inference that because there are more than a million wage earners not absorbed by industry there are too many wage earners is natural, but unjustified." GOWN HARMONY THRU COLORED WIGS NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—If fashion's latest dictum—the colored wig—gains as firm a footing with the gentler sex as did bobbed hair and traffic-impeding earrings, young men of today and tomorrow will not be able to recognize their girl friends by their hair; for, chameleon-like, the blonde collar may be brunette or titan over the course of a day. Primarily the wigs should prove a godsend to those "weaker" ones who are past the "confident-I'm-foolin'-em" period and would love to look like irresistible 21. Yes, wigs to harmonize with the gown and the purse—that's fashion's most recent fad among the fair who would be fashionably dressed. "Fad" is what some will call it, but it is termed a "long-delayed necessity for the sublimation of feminine personality and character" by Madame Louise, known internationally as Chicago's beauty "naturalist," who is chairman of the National Hair Dressers' association. While here attending the association's annual convention, Madame Louise, by her human exhibits, proved that woman's hair is not only her "crowning glory" but the key to her personality and character as well. With her many vari-colored, varialized wigs she evolved beauties that made even those of her profession gasp in wonder. LETTERS BY RADIO The Latvian government has arranged for radio letters to the United States, missives being mailed in that country to Berlin and transmitted by wireless to New York for mailing to addresses. HUNTINGTON BEACH OIL FIELD QUIET Aside from the demonstration made by the Shell Co.'s Ashton No. 7, Huntington Beach was a quiet field this past week. At a depth of 4833 feet the Ashton well blew out and for several hours made oil at the rate of 1000 barrels. This is the biggest demonstration for an oil producer the old field has made for many moons, and there may be something to the idea of staging a come back for the northeast section of the field at least. The production of the Huntington Beach field has fallen to 84,000 barrels, the decline being almost 3000 barrels a week. Unless something spectacular is developed the big days for the Huntington Beach field are over. Montebello is anxiously awaiting the solution of the water problem on the Bicuell well and lay claim to a new oil field. The Bicknell well drilled by H. L. Whiston to a depth of 4444 and as near as can be learned the water is bottom water that is causing the delay in the production test. With the shutting off of this water Whiston believes he will have an oil well for the west extension of the field. Developments at Richfield are now in the hands of the Union Oil Co. of California the discoverer of the field. On the old Chapman lease the Union is finishing up a number of wells, the production running from 150 to 200 bbls. The Union's deep test well on the Graham-Loftus lease has not materialized into anything especially promising as yet. Drilling is at 4245, the formation being brown sandy shale, streaked with oil sand. Despite its many other uses, it has been estimated that more than half of the world's output of sulphur is consumed in the manufacture of sulphuric acid. THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. JOHN BULL THINKS U. S. LAND OF GOATS LONDON, Oct. 15.—England is beginning to imagine the United States as a land of goats. It's all because of the weird stories printed here about the sudden craze of Americans for rejuvenation through goat glands. Tens of thousands of Americans can boast of goat glands sewn up in their anatomy, says Sir Edward Hulton's "Empire News"—and serious-minded English people believe the "Empire News." "Goat farms are springing up with mushroom rapidity," continues this paper, "from Maine to Texas and from Narragansett to Oregon. Their growth so far exceeds the monkey farms of France that if Americans are not turned into goats before the French are turned into monkeys, it will not be the fault of Dr. Brinkley of Kansas, who has set the pace even for Voronoff." MILLIONS OF MEDALS FOR BRITISH VETS LONDON, Oct. 15.—British ex-service men and soldiers and sailors still in the forces must be carrying tons of metal on their breasts, for, according to the war office no fewer than 13,158,964 medals for service in the world war have now been distributed. ITALIANS ANXIOUS TO ENTER AMERICA NORWALK, Conn., Oct. 15.—Italy hopes the United States will lift restrictions on immigration, for 11,200,000 persons in that country are waiting a chance to come here, and some ports, especially Naples, are congested with folks who are seeking a chance to get across the water to make new homes, says Homer M. Byington, long U. S. consul at Naples, while at his home here on furious. Italy is growing fast, says Consul Byington, and has a population of 40,000,000 today. Naples contains 1,000,000, and the congestion there is such that shipping and business in general are harmed; wages are low and living conditions poor. More than 50,000 persons last year applied for the right to come here, but only 42,000 came. Our laws caused the trouble. Many former Italians, secure in possessing American citizenship, have returned to Italy to marry "the girl" and then have found that "the girl" is still an Italian citizen and cannot go back to America with her husband. Others have come back with passports covering six months and then find Italy's laws are such A Tire That Looks and rides like Requires no tube Has no valve to Fits regular rims Gives 15 to 30,00 is puncture proof.

It came about because Drez was arrested three times on charges of driving while intoxicated. Each time he pleaded guilty. It was very vexing to Frank Han, police magistrate, because he didn't like to punish Drez for Drez has six children. So he said: "Drez, I'll put this case over, but you sell that car and don't ever get another." So, that's why: "Good automobile cheap; must sell because of court order." THIES TO ROB POOR FARM MARTINSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 15. "From them who haven't it shall be taken" is the motto of Morgan county thieves, according to Supt. Moore of the county poor farm. Moore discovered a thief in an upstairs room of the poor house. The intruder left in haste. FOR RESULTS—Try a Plain Dealer Want-ad.

That's the ultimatum just issued by Kansas City clubwomen, ministers and the juvenile court. War has been declared on "mugging," "necking" and "lollygagging" in automobiles, public parks and in movie theaters. While it's well known that in the balmy days of spring young men's fancies turn to cuddling and the like o' that, it is apparent that as the autumn frosts are painting the hills with a gleaming gold, and when it would be seeming that one's thots turned to the serious matters of winter underwear and new shoes for the baby, the little love bees are buzzing, and the flappers and cake-eaters are running amuck. For best results try Plain Dealer Want-ad. that they cannot return for more than six months, and so are up against an expensive proposition in getting an extension of time. Italy, says Consul Byington, would today send more than her pre-war total of 250,000 persons per year if America permitted. And the Italian government hopes to see a change as soon as possible. FORGET-ME-NOT DAY FUNDS FOR VETS CINCINNATI, Oct. 15—America wounded and disabled veterans of the world war will be benefited a hundredfold by the coming "National Forget-Me-Not Day," of the Disabled American veterans of the world war, t obe observed throughout the United States Saturday, Nov. 10, according to National Commander James A. McFarland, of Dalton, Ga., national head of the disabled veterans' organization. Commander McFarland is here to start preparations for "Forget-Me-Not Day," which is the annual "day" of the disabled American veterans, assisted by committees of citizens and women in various cities and towns, and sponsored by national state and civil officials. The national information bureau, recognized authority on the merits or demerits of movements of this type, has heartily endorsed "Forget-Me-Not Day," and pointed out that the disabled American veterans' organization is solely interested in the relief, welfare, legislative, educational and organization plans of the nation's wounded and disabled world war veterans.
