Park Commissioner Raymond V. In- gersoll of Brooklyn has announced that his department will award this vear prizes aggregating $100 for the best vegetable gardens developed in private house lots in the borough. Concerning the promotion of garden- ing in Brooklyn the commissioner said: “In the spring of 1914 the first chil- dren’s gardens were opened on park property in Brooklyn. These have been extended each year until this sea- son individual plots will be cultivated and harvested by more than 1,800 chil- dren. So many inquiries were made at these gardens for advice about back yard cultivation that last spring the department opened four model back yard gardens. This spring a fifth model garden will be started on the Myrtle avenue plaza of Fort Greene park. “Ay a result of last spring’s efforts, though no prizes were offered, 700 actual back yard gardens were plant- ed. This year Park Commissioner In- gersoll offers one prize of $25. one of $15, one of $10 and ten of $5 each in the hope that general interest will be further stimulated.” . “Mad as a Hatter.” What is the de tion of the phrase “Mad as a hatter?” One explanation s that it was originally French, “As mad as an oyster” (huitre), that bivalve being supposed to be extremely unin- tellectual. Another theory is that the phrase had reference to Collins, the English poet, author of the “Ode to the Passions.” He was a hatter at Chichester, and it bas been said that the lunatics with whom he was con- fined at one time called him “the hat- ter” and that the phrase originated thus.

An Ad For Men Only Don’t pay out a fortune for a suit, and don’t expect to get one for a song. One is extravagance, and the other is foolish- ness. Neither will lead you to success. There is always ¢ medium between two extremes, and this applies especially in the selection of your clothing. This is the medium store, where you can always buy a solid, substantial, correctly designed and splendidly made suit for the minimum price to be paid for quality goods. The same high standard and minimum of price is main- tained in our furnishings and shoe department. We sell no “gsheap stuff”, and we charge not one cent more than is ab- solutely essential to a reasonable living profit.
