* * * * * No Indian to Guide Her Following the example of Clara Hamon, Mrs. Stillman, of divorce fame, is being offered a starring contract in the movies.

” * * * * * Why, of Course Not “Bullet Strikes Girl’s Knee Without Puncturing Skirt—Police Baffled,” says a headline in the Philadelphia Record.
