This test will save you this disappointment Before you buy window shades again, make this test. You can tell whether a shade will give you the real service you have a right to expect or whether it is another of the kind that makes it impossible to keep your windows attractive. If you fold the ordinary shade material tightly, its ““filling”> of chalk and clay drops out. You can see cracks and countless pinholes! (See photograph No. 1 above.) The little strains of everyday use would cause just such disfiguring holes—once these shades were at your windows, Now fold Brenlin! or pinhole in it! (See photograph No. 2) Brenlin will hang smooth and straight at your windows; it will Not a crack Brenlin the long wearing window wear and wear long after an ordinary shade would have to be discarded be- cause it contains absolutely no “filling.” Its base is a finer, more closely woven cloth, especially prepared to give you the most durable shade material it is possible to make. Rain will not spot it; sun will not fade it. We have the genuine Brenlin (the name perforated on the edge of the cloth) in a2 number of rich colors and in Duplex—one color on one side, a different one on the other.

Twenty-seven ships were finished and put to sea before the canals froze in 1917. Whila winter gripped the Lakes new work was continued and the ex- isting fleet, even old boats which had been laid up, were overhauled. Sum- mer saw every a o craft worked and overworked never before, keeping the stream of grain, iron ore, coal and manufactures moving toward the cast, for shipment to the men in Europe. At the opening of navi tion, 20 ships slipped from the w and work was carried forward at in- creased speed. In November a total of 28 ships—nearly one a d as put into service by Great Lakes yards, The total for 1918 was 163 new freight car all of them steel ex- cept one. The smallest yard on the Lakes, having only three ways, deliv- ered 13 ships and fin a four- teenth only a little late for delivery before the ice closed navigation. Be. tween the end of November and the end of March, six more were launched, All were 4,200 ton boats. One yard built a 3,500 ton ship in 84 days. Another launched a 3,400 ton hull i 28 day which was clipped to vs by another plant soon after. That record stood but a little while, for still another yard launched a 3.500 ton ship in 17 after the laying of the keel and delivered it complete 14 days later. Expansion of the yards to mecet the war's demands gave the Lakes a total of 112 berths, 79 for cargo ships and 33 for tugs. While the average total number of rivet gangs in the Great Lakes district is only ten per cent. of the nation’s total, they point proudly to a record of delivering 30 per cent. of the country’s total ship tonnage. Additional contracts for 346 ships of 4,200 tons each have been placed in the district since the last requisi- tioned ship was finished in October, the program to be completed by the close of navigation this year. Since the signing of the armistice 400,000 tons of shipping have been delivered. Orders also have been placed in the district for 25 steel sea-going tugs, 13 wood sea-going tugs, two steel harbor tugs and 39 wood harbor tugs. Completion of the building program according to officials will give the Lakes district a record of 447 carso ships and 79 tugs delivered to the government, the largest number of ships and the largest tonnage built in any district. | | war, Great AUSTRIA TO CUT EAGLE OFF OLD ESCUTCHEON, Zurich, May 12.—The German- Austrian government has introduced in parliament a bill for an alteration in the Austrian escutcheon, says a Vienna message.

Bissell, savings director | for Connecticut. “It was a case of reorganization, building up a per- sonnel, and making new plans, and | to do this on a permanent basis has | been no easy task. Meanwhile the ! sale of Thrift and War Savings | stamps has gone on quietly but | steadily and with no urging beyond a , persistent bringing to the attention of the public the fact that the War savings stamps are a 100 per cent. | investment and more, for they in- crease in value from month to month. In fact, there will be no | ‘drives’ this year; but we hope to do | ional work in thrift so | thoroughly that people will see for themselves the desirability of invest- | ing in W. S.

Hartford, May 12. | | Although there was no intensive work during | the recent Liberty Loan drive, the entire time was spent in strengthen- | ing War Savings organizations in the different towns and cities.
