Louis Washington /D DAY JUNE 9 The annual Scout field day of the New Britain council will be held on Saturday afternoon, June 9.

The competition in the Scoutcraft events will be the best ever, it is ex- pected. Troops are practicing dili- gently and as in past years all troops are expecting that this will not be a Troop 4 year.

She was Princess Elizabeth of | Bavaria. She was horn July 25, 1876. Q. How can tarnished gold leaf be brightened? When gold leaf on exposed signs is tarnished there is no way to bring back its luster, hecause it may be due to the leaf not being pure in the first place, and the alloy is affected by noxlous gases. If the gold letters or ornaments on signs are laid with pure gold leat and are merely covered with soot or dirt, a spoonge moistened with alcohol or spirits of turpentine will remove the dirt. dust, soot, etc, but the gilt must not he wiped dry. Allow to dry of its own accord. Q. In what photoplays has Lois Wilson appeared in the last three years? A. the ceuntry. Van Orman and s aide, Walter W.

FINDING THE ENGINEER 80 the water board is having trouble In finding the right man for the post of city water engineer made vacant by the recent turn of events. Chairman Hatch just tells us that arious aspirants have come here to e abeut the job but that none of them have made enough of an im- pression upon the water board to warrant their employment. In other words, they didn't sell themselves and their abilitics. There ef course 1s the possibility that some of thesc had ability, maybe enough ability to fit into the picture; but that isn't enough. The water board has to be shown all this in some tangible manner and the fellow who can radlate confidence in his abllities usually stands the best chance of be- ing hired.
