Wash. Tried on Charge of Financier NBA New York Bureau Olga Edwards, a former actress, is pictured above as she went to trial In New York for attempted extortion on the complaint of Nathan Amster, wealthy financier. He accused her of threatening to shoot him unless he doubled the amount of a $100,000 trust fund which he established for her son. Amster has denied her counter charge that the son is his. The support of the Y.

W. C. A. plans is necessary. That organization is an important link In Alton's chain of progress.

To give more and better service the Y. W. C. A. requires the active moral and financial cooperation of the Alton public.

(Signed) Spencer Olin. I feel that the extcntlon program of the Y. W. C. A.

will prove very valuable to the entire community and it should have the substantial support of each Individual. (Signed) Eben Rodger's. Dear Mrs. Olln: I heartily endorse the proposed Y. W.

C. A. pro- I gram and feel that the citizens of Alton should appreciate the work that this organization is doing for the girls and young women of this community. Very truly yours, (Signed) J. Preston Levls.

To Whom it may Concern: The Young Women's Christian Association is an institution that well mer- ts the financial and moral support of all our citizens. With its social, moral and health uplift for the girls and women of our community, it is conducting a work that cannot help but better our city. Those faithful and earnest women who have so efficiently conducted our Y. W. under unfavorable conditions should be supported and given a modern and practical equipment for the proper carrying on of their work.

Respectfully, (Signed) G. A. McKinney. Modern day commerce and industry have rather ruthlessly shattered home ties and influences for many young women and young men. Every community, of comparable size and condition to Alton, must seek to make up, in some measure at least, the resultant loss to youth, if it would preserve at a respectable level, community life, thought and purpose.

Community, or group enterprises such the C. Y. M. C. and kindred organizations provide the facilities for united effort in this direction.

Moreover, the contributors to such enterprises become also beneficiaries, in the satisfaction which follows every altruistic effort in behalf of the individual and the local community life. This is equally true for small and the large giver in the present building campaign of the Y. W. C. A.

She suffered a stroke in January but apparently had recovered from that and was as well as usual. She ate a hearty dinner at 11 o'clock and then went out into the back yard and fell. A neighbor, Mrs. Paul Johnson, saw her lying on the ground and called Mrs. Armstrong's daughter who lived with her.

She died soon after. Mrs. Armstrong's maiden name was Wyatt. She was the daughter of Thomas and Nancy Dunham Wyatt and was born in Macoupin county, July 31, 1859. She married Andrew H.

Armstrong, Dec. 8, 1876. He died May 13, 1923. They were the parents of six children, four of whom survive. They are Mrs.

Minerva Ovcrby, Frank, Benjamin and Charles Armstrong, all of White Hall. She is survived by one brother, Thomas Wyatt of Florence, Colo. He is the last of a family of 12 brothers and sisters.

J. O. Raines. Interment will be in the Jones cemetery cast of White Hall. The pallbearers will be her three sons and three grandsons, Frank, Benjamin, Charles, Frank, and, Howard and Wilbur Armstrong.

CANARY NIGHTINGALES BREMEN Karl Reich has succeeded in developing a strain of canaries which sing like nightingales. He filled his room with both species of birds. When the young canaries were born, the parent birds were removed from the room. The small birds, hearing nothing but music of the nightingales, readily adopted it in place of their own characteristic singing.

We are indebted to the Y. W. C. A. for the needed good which it is contributing to the welfare of young womanhood In our community.

The building they contemplate to erect should be a credit to our city and of which we could Justly be proud. (Signed) W. J. Luer.

'Seven Keys to Baldpate' at High School Pleases Audience "Seven Keys to Balrtpate," the mel- Jdrnmatio farce version of a well- known popular novel of 20 years ago AI? ntcti 1BS evening by Alton High School Dramatic Club In the high school auditorium before an audience which was not a-s large as It might have been, yet reflected deep Interest In the dramatic efforts of the students. Under the coaching of Miss Mildred Rutledge the participants not only had achieved much dramatic expression, but they had learned that all- important factor in making a talent play a success, putting it over without any waits or delays.

That was one of the outstanding features of the way it was rushed through, Just like a professional troupe would have done it. The play centers around one character at all times. William Hallowell Magee, author, who was represented by Dudley Giberson. It was a difficult part, well taken. Everyone else in the play had a rest from activity, but all the time Magee has something doing and fully two thirds of the lines seemed to fall to his share.

The story Is well known to fiction readers and to picture show patrons so the young people had no chance to fall short in their parts, and they did it well.
