SHOOTING JUDGE
WINS LAW SUIT
FOR FRENCHMAN
By FREDERICK K. ABBOTT
(INS) Staff Correspondent
PABjK.—Shoot the judgd and win
your case. At least that is what Rob-
ert Alexandra Noel did and he won.
Noel was a former adjutant of avin-
■ tion and was badly wounded in July.
! 1916. Since then he has become an
undertaker’s helper
The French Government pension-
ed Noel out of the Army on a 25 per
cent basis. Noel was not satisfied
with the amount of his pension and
brought suit against the Government
claiming 6<>! per cent disability.
The case came up before the Eighth
Chamber at] the Palais de Justice.
Noel’s lawyer, Mile. Raymonde Le-
fevre. pleaded for her client. Mile.
Lcfevre claimed that her client was
mentally unbalanced since his wound
and thus unable to earn a satisfactory
living.
After the lawyer’s pleading Judge
Beaufils called the plaintiff.
Noel stood up. Wild eyed be strode
to the bar. Without warning he cried:
“I’m a bally wounded man and you
don't pay me enough.”
With thisjhe pulled a revolver from
his pocket'and fired twice toward the
judge. ,
The clerk of the court and another
lawyer, Alfred Godard, seized the
soldier and disarmed him,
The bulli-ts passed within two inch-
es of the judge's head and embedded
themselves fin the wall.
Mile. Lefevre then calmly stood up

lot tougher on the ultimate consumer if not responsible.”

)ne consolation the Republicans have in falling out
the farmers, is the knowledge that the farmers don’t
together long at a time, and what one faction will vote

more than a million dollars a year. We imagine it
jibe easier to beat the government out of part of its in-
due*on a thousand dollar income than on a million dol-

“No,” responded Judge Beaufils,
”1 can see: that. We’ll give him 60
per cent.”

Spend Your Vacation
IN TEXAS
Vacation time is here again!
Once more the Central Power and
light Company wishes to remind
Texans that there are no better
places for relaxation and rest than
may be found in the thousand
spots dotting the State’s line of sea-
shore, the sylvan retreats along its
purling streams, the delightful hill
country resorts, or the majestic
plateau of the Davis Mountain
range.
Ancient Greeks set great store
by the maxim, “Know Thyself.”
Not less important, not less pleas-
ant would be “Know Thy Texas.”
From the surge of the blue waters
of the Gulf of Mexico out to the
towering peak of El Capitan, from
the hills of Fredericksburg down
to the magic Valley of the Rio
Grande, every sector of this wide
area is fitted by Nature for the
crumpling of cares.
Texas is a vacation land of end-
less charm where the variety of
tu:ngs to do and sights to see are
endiess. Scenic grandeur, sailing,
s.vimming- “honest to goodness”
fishing, sporty golf courses, wood-
land trails for hiking and riding,
dude ranches,, bustling cities . . .
rest . . . recreation . . . what more
could one vacation hold?

Enjoy the best vacation you ever
experienced . . right in Texas.

Vacation Suggestions
Clip this out for reference
Would you enjoy some real Colo-
rado climate? Then spend your va-
cation at Marfa, Alpine or Ft. Davis
in the Davis Mountains.
Do you like to fish? You’ll find
plenty of that sport on the Devil’s
River at Del Rio.
For golf, fishing and real Recrea-
tion try the hill country around Ban-
dera, Fredericksburg and Comfort.
Or if you like to motor, start from
San Antonio, west to Sabinal, to Frio
Canyon, to. Uvalde, where there is
excellent fishing on the Nueces Riv«r.
Thou continue down through the
Winter Garden ,fo Laredo, where you
can cross the International stream
for a bit of old world atmosphere.
Then north to Cotulla, through Pear-
sall to Medina Lake for swimming
boating and fishing.
Then there's another wonderful
motor trip from San Antoni* to Gon-
zales, Cuero. Victoria and other
Guadalupe River points with Corpiis
Christ i as the objective for fishing,
surf bathing and genuine vacation
enjoyment.
Or still another trip can be routed
down through the Rio Grande Valley
with an opportunity for white wing
bunting and a fishing trip to Point
Isabel.
