The man was a good sport, he changed a quarter and put in the two dimes, “I only have a nickel, you can have that,” sald another man.” “Nickels won't go in the box,” was the reply, and another dime helped swell the fund, “Please put in a the dime for |drive,” said a hright-eyed Boy Scout | to a young woman hurrying aleng in front of a Main street store. The woman blushed, seemed to be at a loss as to what to say, finally plucked up courage enough to stammer, “I did,” and hurried on, “Say, do I have to drop in a dime every time I meet a kid with a bank,"” demanded in mock anger, a local salesman. “There ain't so many kids,”” was the significant reply, and another dime went in. When Mary E. Curtin, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, opened her office for business this morning she almost immediately started a rush of youngsters coming in to have their banks opened, emptied and to start off for a second supply. Miss Curtin also found that she was to be the target for a number of tele- phone calls all day long. “I've been called to my door 15 times this morn- ing,” said a woman shortly before noon. “There's a ragged little young- ster ‘'her and she doesn’t seem to be very clean,” complained a woman's voice over the wire. ‘“She's the type that need# your help, drop a dime in the box" was the advice. “Say, I've dropped dimes in a dozen banks this morning,” said another man, to a boy in the lobby of a local bank. “Where does the money go?" quer- | leglslatures, 48 HOUR WEEK BlG INDUSTRIAL ISSUE Boston, April 7 (By the Assoclated Press)—The 48-hour week for women and minors in industry set by Presi- dent Thomas I".

NEW FUMIGATING PLAN By Its Use Trinity Officials Hope to Save Articles of Value Being De- stroyed in Museum, Hartford, April 7.—The threatened destruction of specimens in Trinity college museum by the museum beetle and its larvae will be checked as soon as a newly devised fumigating sys- tem using fumes of hydrocyani® acid is placed in working order in Board- . man hall, according to a statement today by Dr. Frederick W. Carpenter, professor of biology and in charge ef the inuseum collections. Museum beetles are the cause of destruction of mounted specimens of both mammals and insects, and until recently museum authorities had had difficulty in preventing this loss. Liquid carbon bisulphid has been tried at Trinity but its fumes did not destroy the larvae fast enough to prevent the beetles from harming the specimens. The newly constructed fumigator, built on original lines, contains com- partments for the cases of insects as well as ample gpace for larger animal specimens.

LIKE THE HUMAN MACHINE That always needs building so that the organs of the body will function properly, just so does the mechanical ma- chine or automobile need rebuilding. When you feel the or- gans of the body misfiring, when you do not i:egl exactly physically fit, you make your selection of a physician whom you know to be reliable, one who knows his business. So then, you should do the same thing when you are buying your parts and accessories for your car. Select the dealers whom you know to be reliable. And the man today who is advertising his wares is the man you can bank on as being reputable. He is not afraid tp cry aloud to the world that he is handling these particular goods and that he will guar- antee any of them that passes through his hands. AGAINST POSTPONEMENT Buenos Aires, April 7.—If the Pan- American conference decides to post- pone consideration of the armament question to the future congress, the practical results of the present dis- cussions will be even less than these of previous meetings says La Nacion today in commenting upon reports that such a disposition of the ques. tion may be made. Postponement, the newspaper adds, would show that the delegation fear to consider a probiem of such im- portance and wou'd mean that future Pan-American conferences would lose in prestige and popularity.
