A collection of posters entered in the War Savings Stamp contest, rep- resenting the four districts of the country; west, middle west, east and south, is on " exhibition in New York, at the gaileries of the Art Alliance of America, where they will remain some time before: being sent to Washington. There are three classes: Class A, Dos- ters drawn by art students; Class B, posters done- by high school pupils; Class C, posters done by pupils of the seventh, eighth and ninth grades of public schools. A national prize win- ner in each class was selected by the committee, of which Charles Dana Gib- on is chairman. Sergeant Charles Dunn. U. S A, the National School of Fine and Ap- plied Arts, Washington, D. C., won prize A. The ‘winner of prize B was Edmund_Kressy, of the South High School, Cleveland, Ohio, while John W. A, of Schmidt, seventh grade pupi of the Buffalo Grammar school, won prize in Class C. A fourth poster by Miss Kathérine Mallett of Norwich, will probably re- ceive a special prize, or honorable mention, because of ‘its excellence. More than 2,000 posters were handed in from tlie Eastern section of the country aldne, so that Miss Mallett, who a very talented pupil of the Norwich Art School, may indeed be congratulated on the honor of having a special prize awarded to her. Her drawings are exceptionally clever and individual, with a charming originality all their own, and she has executed many commissions for current maga- zine covers, besides doing illustrations for various venile periodicals and books. o After belng shown at the Galleries in New York this interesting collection of posters will become a traveling ex- hibit to tour the country during the autumn and winter. e SMOKED GLASSES IN CHICKEN THIEF CASE Led to Arrest of Robert McDonald— Found in«Hanover:Hen House. A pair of smoked glasses played an important part in the arrest of Robert McDonald, 16, Monday afternoon by Officer John J. McGuire, of _ Baltic These glasses were found by Emerson Perkins, of Hanover, in his hen house Sunday morning when he went to feed his hens. Mr. Perkins also discovered that his flock of Rhode Island Reds had been depleted by 18 of his chois- est hens. From the fact that McDonald had called at the home of Mr. Perkins Sat- urday afternoon and was wearing smoked glasses Mr. Perkins was led to believe that McDonald could ac- count for the missing pouitry. McDon- ald also called at the home of Will- iam Schulman, a neighbor of Mr. Per- kins. While- there his glasses drop- ped off and Mr. Schulman noticed in them a protruding rivet and called Mc- Donald’s attention ot it. The glasses that were found in Mr. Perkins' hen house were identified by Mr. Schulman, who was a witness at the justice court. When confronted with the glasses McDonald admitted that they were his property but pleaded not guilty. When asked how they came to be in Mr. Perkins' hen house, he testified that he tossed them into the hen yard Sat- urday evening and that they probably. struck a limb of a trez and were de- flected and ‘ricochetted thence 15 feet into the hen house, This explanation was allowed by the justice of the peace and he dismissed the case and congratulated the youth by exclaiming, “You are free, and am glad that you are free, my boy.” FOUR DIVORCES GRANTED BY JUDGE KEELER.
