SNATCHES PURSE; GETS FEW DIMES Tw or three dimes were all that a youthful ptirse snatcher got for his trouble last night when he attacked Mrs. Howard Stepp, 1211 Green st. Mrs. Stepp reported to City Detective Harry Harrison that while she was.w alking south on Twelfth street near Green, with her daughter, a young boy stepped up to her. grabbed the purse and ran Airs.

Stepp held on to tho purse strap but It tore, she said. Ssbe said there were only two or throe dimes, some papers und a handkerchief in the purse. TODAY (Continued From Page Thirteen) That seeins natural, but it would not seem natural if a man said: "I will agree not to commit murder unless my vital interests, independence or honor are affected." The individual is more nearly civilized than the nation. CONGRESS lets mothers and widows of soldiers buried in France visit the graves of their dead at governments expense. That is just, but those that prefer it should be allowed, instead, to visit the country for which the man died.

It is suggested also that the mournful visitors be taken abroad by the Red Cross. That suggestion Is foolish. The Red Cross doesn't know, anything about conducting European trips economically and comfortably. Established travel agencies could do that to the satisfaction the travelers. There is no good reason why a collection of Red Cross employes should be sent on a junket at the national expense.

And newspapers give it three lines. We digest miracles easily. WILKES BARRE MERCHANT DIES WILKES BARRE, Feb.
