When You Need
Money
If you are the average man or woman, you
have two sources open when you need
money quickly. One is to borrow it—if you
can; the other is to draw it from your ac
count. Even well to do people take no
chances on borrowing; they have their
checking account.

f JACKIE COOGAN AT
LIBERTY TONITE
Jackie Coogan, like Charles Chap
) lin, returns to his enduring rags and
abandons the costumery of wealth and
the garments of the aristocracy.
In Ills second picture for Metro, the
little screen favorite is seen as the for
lorn hero of Ouida’s immortal classic,
“A Dog of Flanders.” In its trans
lated version for the screen, the story
is called a “Boy of Flanders,” and
Jackis has as his principal co-player
the great Dane and most sagacious
dog on the screen, Teddy. They stage
the most gripping scene of Jackie’s
career in “A Boy of Flanders.” It is
on the steps of the great cathedral at
Antwerp when a snowstorm of unpre
cedented fury sweeps over the ancient
capital and covers the fields of Flan
ders with a deep and sinister shroud
of white. “A Boy of Flanders” is at
the Liberty Theatre tonight and to
morrow night.
Woman Governor Refuses
to Save Doomed Man
(By Associated Press)
AUSTIN, Texas, May 5.—A doomed
man’s last plea for life failed to move
Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson from her
announced intention to apply a “man’s
reason rather than a woman’s senti
ment” to the exercise of executive
clemency.
Her action in the case of Sidney
Welk of Dallas, the first man to be
executed under her administration,
gives a key to the mental process of
the states' first woman governor in
handling one of the most pressing and
delicate problems of her administra
tion. Welk, for his death cell in the
Huntsville penitentiary, sent the fol
lowing telegram to Mrs. Ferguson, a
few hours before he was executed:
“My time is growing near. Please
do not let me die.”
Many predicted the emotions gener
ally thought to rule a woman’s mind
and heart would break through the
armor of reason the woman governor
has constructed for all her dealings in
pardon matters. But they judged her
wrongly. She declared she has been
unable to find “any reason for inter
fering with the course of the law.”
Her comment on Welk’s telegram
was: “I don’t like to get messages
from him.”
Welk, sentenced to death for kill
ing a Dallas jailer in an attempted
jailbreak, went to his death a few
hours later.
The record shows that up to early
in April Mrs. Ferguson granted 64 full
pardons and 95 conditional pardons.
Executive clemency was exercised in
other ways as follows: Commuta
tions, two; reprieves, one; paroles 16;

GRAVES OF BRITISH WAR
HEROES ENCIRCLE GLOBE
LONDON, May 5.—A chain of mon
uments to the sacrifices made by the
British troops during the World War,
encircle the globe. The report of
the Imperial War Graves Commission

ges, continuing in Switzerland, and on
through Italy to Macedonia, the Bal
kans, Gallipoli and Smyrna to Syria
and Palestine to cross the Mount of
Olives.
The chain breaks there into two sec
tions, one passing through Egypt to
