_— SHAW WILL DONATE NOBEL CASH PRIZE Money to Bw Used in Inter- national I4terary Work Tondon. Nov. 19 (A—Following a precendent estal dlished by the late Prestdent Roose relt, George Bernard Shaw has donat pd the purse which goes wilh his a ~ard of the Nobel prize in literatu re for 1925 to be usefl to “encouw: mge intercourse and understanding i literature and art between Sweder| and the British Isles.” Presideilt Roosevelt gave the $40.000° com insg to him from the Nobel peace prize for his ald in end- ing the war betjurcen Russia and Japan to a fourtation for the pro- motion of industrial peace. The literature prize ‘usually amounts to about $85.000. In aceepting -the literature prize, But not the maney. Mr. Shaw pro- pased that' the mioney prize be turned inte a fund’ to #end important Swed- ish books wnd to support organs working for indellectual intercourse between Sweylen and Great Britain. Mr, Shaw's letter declared the award of the Nabel prize was a wel- come refnforcpment to British and Swedish auiture and that natarally it was very grmutifying to him per- sonally that he was the vehigle for such an act of international ap- preciation. With regard ta his acceptance of the prize Mr. Shaww s “I must, howpver, discrimdnate between the award and the prize. Tor the award T have notling but my best thanks., But, after most eratian T cannot per- to acaept the money ars and audiences provide me with more than sufficiant money for my needs; and as to my renown, it is graater than is gosd for my spiritual health. Ungler these cir- cumstancas money is a life belt thrown to a swimmer who has al- ready reached the shore in safety. T therefore respecéfully and gratefully heg the Swedish Royal Academy to confer on me the adklitional and final honor of classing my work in that respect hors conconrs.” (Out of pompetition). The veteran playwright then calls the attention of the prize board to the fact that the British dominions bverseas and Buropean powers are chosing advantageous sites in FLon- don to exhibit their cholcest pro- duets angd advertise the attractions |and traveling facilities of their |countries. He then refers to the imports of Swedish paper, the func- tion of which, as there is nothing | printed on it, seems to him to be to | | wrap Australlan apples tn. Mr. Shaw says the Swedish min- |ister in London had informed him |of Swedish books of great value | “which for lack of means cannot be [translated and of organs working | for intellectual Intercourse between | us which are in need of support.” | |He then proposes the funding of the money prize for the encourage- ment of intercourse and understand- ing In literature and art between :S\\'mh‘n and the British TIsles.

That's the astounding record of the new silent NOKOL. You may call it Juck. You may say it's “good advertising.” But your better judg- ment will tell you that back of such an over whelming success there must be outstanding merit. There must be exceptional value. There must be something that no other oil burner can give. There is. First of all,there isNOKOL's nine-year record of efficiency. NOKOL was the first success- ful oil burner —and not once during those nine years has it relinquished its hold on first place. There are more NOKOLS in use today than any other automatic oil burner —and no product has ever had a more loyal, enthusiastic following. Another factor in NOKOL's success is econ- omy. Figures show that nearly 60% of our sales were made in cottages, bungalows and emaller homes—to men and women of moderate means, who naturally wanted the most economical oil heat they could get; people who couldn’t afford to experiment with burners of unproved merit. Eight sizes to fit every need When you buy a NOKOL you don’t waste ‘money onaplantlarger than youneed. You'll be surprised to learn how inexpensive are the smaller size models, You'll be surprised, too, at the difference in operating cost. An oil burner that's too large for your home is wasteful in operating expense as well as in the initial cost. If you are a home owner, you can't afford to be without the joy and comfort of modern oil heat. Think what it will mean to you and your family. No fires to make, no coal, no ashes, no soot and dirt. All you do is set the thermostat—and forget it. Your NOKOL will keep you warm and comforta- ble all winter long, without a bit of atten- tion or thought on your part.
