TO GET COLLECTION OF RARE OLD COINS Will Be Moved lfrom Phila, Mint to National Museum By The Associated Press, Philadelphia, May 7. eoming removal of the mint's invaluable collection of eoins, tokens and medals to the National Museum In Washington has aroused a feeling of disappointment in this city, The collection, begun when the mint = The forth- was established In 1702, is said to be one of ghe finest in the world, I comprises 1088 coins minted and used in the United Btates since the coming of the colonists, There also are thous ands of other coins representing more than 40 nations Values Tnestimable It is impossible to estimate exact value of the collection, includes specimens of the land shilling, an almost plain silver dise, dating from 1661 and made in the first Colonial mint, established at YBoston without the authority of the English crown, There are specimens of the “Frank- the lin cent” minted in copper from 1787/ Because of the expression, “Mind your business” engraved on the coin, it was thought IDienjamin Frankiin was responsible for the design. This lias since been considered improbable, The coln was struck in New York by James Jarvis with whom congress contracted to coin 300 tons of coppe A rare five-eagle, or $50 gold plece, minted in 1877, is included In the collection, together with Ephraim Brasher's doubloon, struck by a New York jeweler in the eighteenth cen- tu Number From Foreign Countries The greater number of coins are those from foreign countries. There are antique coins from (ireat Britain, Yrance, Greece, Belgium, Norway, Sweden and other Furopean coun tries. Some of these coins were minted by imperial cities, such as Augsburg and Bremen, as well as by Lishoprics in Germany. The collection contains three silver dollars minted in 1504; a half dime of 1792, bearing an eagle ing and the word Ab. Par, of nee and Industry- ni. States of America;” gold coins struck in on, S Philadelphia Wwhich bore for the first time “E Plu- ribus Unum;" coins which carrled for the first time the words, “God Save Our Country.” There are also a large number of private gold coins minted near the mines. A ten dollar gold piece struck Ly Templeton Reid, assayer of Geor- gla gold and bearing his name, was {ssued about 1800. A fifty dollar gold plece was struck by August Hum- LoN, United States assayer, and was made in the shape of an octagon. This practice was approved by the western states where coins were scarce. The state assayer of California issued a bar ingot with its value, weights, etc., engraved on it. The ingot is included in the collection to he shipped to ‘Washington, WIN RECOGNITION.

EXPLOSION WRECKS PLEASANT ST. BARN Houses Rocked and Occupants Scared by Detonation tha the $1 fra fra an. A large barn on Pleasant street was | "¢ demolished by the force of an explo- sion from an unknown source yes- terday afternoon about 5:30 o'clock. The barn, with the exception of one end, was razed. Residents in that were startled out of afternoon naps by a report that sounded like the discharge of a can- non. Windows were rattled, al- though none was reported to have been shattered, houses were rocked ! and the entire section thrown into pandemonium for a time. Following the rumbling of the ex- plosion, there came a rip and crash |, and what was left of the barn was a cloud of dust and a few rafter, No one in the neighborhood ecould tell today what caused the explosion, but it is thought that some farmer {in the neighborhood or on the out- skirts was either dynamiting a ditch |or some tree stumps and had put an extra large charge of the explosive in at this particular time. 10 ATTEND CONFERENCE au 6:1 are air of cha neighborhood | aj their Sunday cot we mi ad ter s0a bri; hia T J i ‘(.ll'l Scout Activities For Week In- clude Sale of Good Things To Eat— State Conference Mecting, wil | clu | Mrs. Leon A, Sprague and Mrs. Ev- {erett Proudman will attend the Conn- ccticut conference committee meeting |7 of Girl Scouts at New Haven tomor- |G row.

GOVERNMENT AND MANY OTHER COUNTRIES IN GRANTING A BASIC PATENT Admitted by the entire rubber industry as a forward step in the manufacture of t Norwalk announces a patented method of handling rubber that makes uniformity in a tire possible. Many have claimed uniformity but Norwalk is the first to accomplish it as evidenced by the U. S. Government and many other countries in granting a basic patent on a process that makes uniformity possible. How We Accomplished it Crude rubber is a great equation in building tires. Rubber which is classified as a vege- table varies in quality just as two heads of cabbage grown alongside each other vary in taste. So Norwalk set to the j he e L task of making the quality ™ p PRESENT STOCK of the rubber used in their AT THE OLD PRICE tires uniform.

Save 25% on quality. Now the Only Uniform Tire As a result the Norwalk is now the only uni- form tire. Big users everywhere claim no tire has served them better. In no other tire will you find such uniformity, for Nor- walk is protected by ironclad patents in many countries, Mark the Difference Uniformity in Norwalks combined with the unusually long mileage they give will mean comfort in riding and less worries. For Nor- walk cords run under the same conditions will wear alike. Not just one lucky tire to give good mileage but all four tires will wear alike. Yet Norwalk tires cost no more than other good makes and give good value for the money. For the Man Who Wants Value Before you buy tires see us and let us show you the new Norwalk cord.
