Tt is his aim to make the con- vention the most successful one in the history of the congress and to dem- onstrate that Washington cannot be equaled in such an undertaking. To this end his plans embrace not only the Army, Navy and the United States Public Health Service, but also every physician in the city, who will each have his individual part in the pro- gram of activities and entertainment.

Owing to the increase in silk busi- ness between the United Japan, several new million-dollar vessels are to be built by Japanese capital especially to help carry silk cargoes. They will operate between Yokohama and Pacific ports. Matchmakers Need Forests. So many matches are made annu- ally in the United States that it has long been profitable for match manu- facturers to own their own forest or timber tracts. An Ohio match con- cern has just built its own logging railroad to bring out 15,000,000 feet a year, much of which the match manufacturing plants will use.

I ©» I am full of ire and dudgeon, for, although I'm sane and wise, I am taking for a grudgeon by the get- rich faking guys. Every day the mails are flooded with their bunk addressed to me, tales of oil wells lately sudded, tales of gold mines good to see. 1 have preached against the fakers, I have warned the sons of toil that to plow their stony acres beats a deal in phony oil. "I have cautioned friend and neighbor to avoid the faker's scheme, for the wage of honest labor beats investing in a dream. One would think the fake promoter would have sized me up by now, saying, “Here's a wise old voter, with a high and bulging brow; he’s observed my every caper, scrutinized my every trick, so I'll flood him not with paper, he won’t buy my gilded brick. But my mailbox every morning holds five pounds of gaudy bills, gold and purple ink adorning circulars that throb with thrills, Oh, the circulars are breezy, and large fortunes they assure; getting rich is so blamed easy! Only chuckleheads are poor. But I won- der why the fakers send their gilded bunk to me, offering their desert acres dr a homesite in the sea. They must hope that their persistence will break down my will in time, and my patience they'll outdmance, and thev'll get my bottom dime. (Copyright ) WALT MASON. anehaha s Grave Located. At De Soto, Wis, a town of 340 population, which was settled by New England Yankees, the Indian maiden Minnehaha is buried on the crest of a hill overlooking the town. Many persons wrongly suppose she was buried in Minnesota, where Minne- haha Falls are located. B, Police Dogs Not Part Wolf. Police dogs are often supposed to be descended from wol but this is not so. They are directly descend- ed from peaceful German shepherd dogs. The fact that there have been no wolves in France since 1838 makes the theory that they are part wolf absurd, scientists sa.

Va., September 15. Charred remnants of newspapers that had been off the press less than six hours were discovered stuffed be- tween suits of clothes in the shop of Gilbert Clothes, in the downtown re- tail section, when firemen broke into the place yesterday to extinguish a blaze that was spreading rapidly. Fire Chief Petty expressed the opinion that the fire was of incen- diary origin and requested a police investigation. J. W. Witkowski and Joe Pliner, respectively, manager and assistant manager of the store and the only persons known to have had keys to it, were questioned for more ethan two hours. Kach declared he had not been in the building since closing time Saturday night. Firemen de- clared they found no evidence that the store had been broken into. ‘The store is one of a chaln operated by a New York syndicate headed by Jerome_Silverman and Louis Wein- berg. Damage resulting from the fire was estimated at $5,000. Popular Pin Design “Faulty.” The horeshoe tie pin, of which many specimens will be seen, was originally made as a good luck piece of jewelry, but, strangely enough, ite design is such as to thwart any good luck superstition the wearer may have. The pins are almost always made so that the points are down when worn, whereas the points should be up for good luck's sake, say “good fortune experts.” FRANKLIN NATIONAL BANK Pa.
