Page Four THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3rd, 1927 Magistrate Finds Him Guilty, Had Great Provocation, But Assault Unnecessary John Maize, former superintendent of the County House of Refuge was found guilty on Saturday by His Worship O. A. Langely, of assaulting Rabina Calberry, on Sunday, Oct. 2nd. His Worship in fining Maize $200.00 without costs said he could have sent him to jail, but he had taken into account his previous good record and that he was a man 60 years old who had never darkened the doors of a jail before, so he thought that justice to all would be met if he levied a fine. WORTH REPEATING I believe in advertising and publicity. It has done more to bring humanity to right understanding than almost anything else in the world. When you put advertising forward you must believe in it. Advertising io be effective must be honest and ■must carry a message. I want to advertise the United States of America as the best republic in the world; I want to advertise the American life as the best in the world; I want to advertise the American business as the best in the world, and God helping me, we're going to make it the best business in the world without letting government destroy it.-- Warren G.
