KOSHER STORE OWNER SUED,
BECAUSE HE ADVERTISED HAM
WHITE PLAINS, N. Y.—Two suits
for 825,000 each charging libel be-{
cause Armour & Co. included the.
name of a kosher butcher shop in a
list of stores selling ham, published
several weeks ago in a newspaper ad
vertisement, were filed here today—
oh by the shopkeeper and the other
by a meat inspector of the Congrega
tion Ohab Zedak, who asserts he lost
his job as the result.
A. Novich, of Yonkers, the store-;
keeper, and Kalman Feldman, the in
spector, are the plaintiffs. Justice
Young reserved decision on a motion
to dismiss the complaints as frivolous
and ill-founded.
Novich charges "he was disgraced
among orthodox Jews and his business
damaged. Feldman lost his job, he'
co plains, because it was his duty to
inspect the shop of Max Braun, an
other' kosher buteher of Yonkers,
whose name also was included in the;
list.

The. Old-Fashioned Father.
Judge Ben B. Lindsey, the cham
pion of modern youth, said at a din
ner in. Denver:
“But of course youth isn’t always
in the, right. An old-fashioned father
complaints! to his daughter that he

dressed..
“‘Oh, don't you?’ said the girl, and ’
she blew n choking cloud of cigarette
smoke into the old man’s face. ‘Well,
let me tpJl you this—1 dress to please
myself.1
“ ‘But « takes,’ he protested,
