Contract Let to Paint and Put New Roof on Boston's Shrine of Liberty.
History of the Famous Building That So Often Rang With Early American Oratory—Restoration Works Only to Be Done.
Faneul Hall is to be painted and repaired to prolong its life. Unpatriotic vandals, from time to time, have attempted to convert various American shrines to commercial purposes. What do you suppose would happen if someone proposed to sell the "Cradle of American Liberty"?
Boston—Boston, the city of landmarks, has a hard struggle to preserve them. Every once in a while some adventurous individual proposes to divide Bunker Hill into building lots, to roof over Bulfinch street for a garage, to make a recreation plier of the fish dock, or to melt down the statue of Paul Revere for nickels for use in the highway. Such proposals of unpatriotic vandalism are vigorously resisted by the surviving old Bostonians and are ultimately defeated, but not until there has been a controversy with the vandals on one side and the Boston ancients on the other. The latest proposition—it is going through all right, all right—is to paint and reroof historic Faneul Hall, described by Wendell Phillips as "the cradle of liberty" and by Ralph Waldo Emerson as "the forum of freedom."
Peter Faneuil was of French descent. He was a merchant in Boston, and he believed with Thomas Jefferson that where there is no free speech there is no freedom, the voice of the patriot is muffled the hand of the elector is shackled, and there is no liberty in the land.
Entertaining these views, which were those of men considered revolutionists in his day—for the American colonies were then under the control of the British, he insisted the idea of presenting to Boston an appropriate meeting place where the views of patriotic colonists could be fearlessly expressed. With the high sense of civic duty which has always marked New England and is, in fact, one of its chief titles to the reverent tribute of all patriotic Americans, he attended a public meeting and offered to build at his own expense a market and to present it to Boston. There were reactionaries and progressives in that day as well as this, and the Boston reactionaries protested against what they called the "public monopoly" of a market which would "drive out of business" a number of small dealers or hucksters who were "dead again" the innovation, to use an old New England phrase still current.
A vote of thanks was given Peter Faneuil but his proposition to contribute a market, at his own expense, to Boston was adopted by a majority engaged by the vote of thanks, or admonished by the slender majority of seven, Peter Faneuil enlarged his plan of a market and coupled with it the idea of a meeting place, so the two were built together.
Such was the_origin of Faneuil Hall, years before the opening of the Revolutionary war and more than a century before the anti-slavery meetings which made the old building a very pillar of forensic fire for those who wished to see blotted out forever what John Wesley called "that exerciable sum of all villainies commonly called the slave trade." The Hall.
Faneuil Hall, which is in Faneuil Hall square and which old Bostonians describe as "the cradle of liberty," is by all odds the most important and historic public meeting place in the United States. The first Faneuil Hall was built in 1742 and was primarily a market. The plan of a "second story" (there were no second-story men in those days) was an afterthought. When Boston accepted the building, it was provided that it should be called Faneuil Hall "forever." The first Faneuil Hall was a structure only 100 feet long by 40 feet wide. It was partially destroyed in 1761, but remained, but was rebuilt in 1762, fifteen years before the beginning of the Revolutionary war. Part of the funds used in rebuilding were raised by a lottery.
The second building was formally opened March 14, 1763, and it was the patrot, James Otis, who dedicated the hall, to the "cause of liberty" in a fervent speech. In Faneuil Hall were held all the town meetings and, in the stirring days before the American Revolution, the patriot orators of that time were heard in "old Faneuil"—though it was not very old then. The building which was only about half the size of the present one, was two stories high and so remained unchanged of the architect Bulfinch, it was enlarged and improved. Its width was increased to 80 feet; a third story was added; the "hall" was made 78 feet square and 28 feet high; galleries resting on Doric columns were put in and a large platform was built for the orators, for distinguished citizens and for members of committees.
On the rear wall hangs an oil painting representing Daniel Webster addressing the United States senate on the occasion of his celebrated reply to Hayne. It is by Healy and is interesting because of the portraits in the picture of some of the leading New England men of that period. Other portraits hanging on the walls were those of Washington (by Stuart), Faneuil (by Colonel Henry Sargent), Hancock (by Copley), Samuel Adams, John Adams, William Adams and Warren (all by Copley), Commodore Prebble, John A. Andrew, Abraham Lincoln and Edward Everett by modern artists, all copies, the originals having been removed to the Boston Fine Arts building.
In other, earlier and perhaps better days the orator with his harangues, arguments and appeals held the center of the stage—when that stage was Faneuil Hall. He was to the public sentiment of his day what the newspapers, the magazines and the best sellers (the newspapers especially) are in this day. Some of the greatest orators and agitators of the country were heard in Faneuil Hall.
The hall was never let for money, but was and is at the disposal of the people whenever a sufficient number of persons, complying with certain regulations, ask to have it opened for meeting purposes. The Boston charter contains, or did contain, a provision forbidding its sale or lease. On the upper floor of the building was for years the armory of the "Ancient and Honorable Artillery company," the oldest military organization in the country and one of the local institutions of Boston. Until Boston became a city, in 1822, the town offices were in Faneuil Hall and it was the place of the regular town meetings.
Practically every distinguished American, and certainly every important orator who had a message to convey to the people of this country, has either attended a meeting in Faneul Hall or has spoken from its platform. A few years ago Theodore Roosevelt, seeking at that time delegates in his support for the Presidential nomination, spoke in Faneul Hall in advance of the Republican convention in Chicago. The auditorium was densely crowded, so much so, in fact, that a large number of those standing in the rear of the hall could not see Colonel Roosevelt, though they were able to hear him.
"We can't see you, Colonel," a few of them called out. At the front and on top of the table on the platform where Colonel Roosevelt was speaking was an American flag draped, and one enthusiastic partisan exclaimed, "Stand on the table!" Quick as a flash Colonel Roosevelt explained, "Remove the flag and I will do so. I cannot stand with my feet on the American flag."
The first floor of Faneul Hall as now used, and as always used, is a market, the assembly hall or a meeting place occupying the second floor. This is an old English arrangement which was borrowed for Boston when Faneul Hall was first built. Since then, the old building has never been seriously changed architecturally.
The new work to be undertaken is the complete fireproofing of the building. This includes a new floor of reinforced concrete under the market in the lower story, an extension of the sprinkler system, the providing of a "water curtain" for the exterior, and the introduction of a fireproof stairway as an exit from the quarters of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery company. The roof, which has not been repaired for 23 years, is to be put into good condition and the present unlightly and ramshackle awnings over the sidewalks are to be removed and a new awning of iron and glass (in simple Colonial design) substituted.
Work of Restoration.
All the paint will be cleaned off the brick, mutilated stonework restored, the white trim repaired and the building left in its natural red brick (with white trimlings) substantially as it appeared when it was first constructed. The Boston firm of architects in charge of the alterations, which are more in the nature of a restoration than of innovations, is Cram & Ferguson, and the expense will not be large—wasteful municipal expenditures have not been, the rule in New England—even for the most valuable landmarks in Massachusetts, the one rival to Independence hall in Philadelphia.
Mr. Cram is one of the architects supervising the repairs, said recently that if any one in Boston proposed the sale of Faneuil Hall, the people of Boston would build barricades in the streets and fight to the last gap to prevent such an outrage.
Every one knows the story of Daniel Webster and the Boston "silver top." There existed for many years a branch or division of the Whig party, the members of which were called "the Conscience Whig." They regarded the slavery question as still an open one for popular discussion and for remedial legislation. The other Whig, known as "the Cotton Whig," did not. In New York, the older members of the Whig party were known as the Silver Grey's, less than a peasant. In Massachusetts they were known as "the Silver Tops" on account of the white hair of many of the older members. It was an arn of whiskers and beards; these were no, or very few, bald heads.
Daniel Webster was a Whig, but desiring to propitiate and gain the support of the Cotton Whigs of the South in his aspirations for the Presidency, he made a speech in the United States senate in Washington which gravely affronted the Conscience Whigs and numbed John G. Whittier to write
THE APPEAL.
that fierce denunciation of him in poetry "Ichabod." By the Boston Silver Tops Daniel Webster was regarded as a bachelor, a traitor, a recessor as having "gone over to the South." On the day of his funeral one Silver Top met another on Explosion street and asked him whether he was going to attend Mr. Webster's funeral. "No, sir," said the other Boston Silver Top fersely; "I will not attend it, but I approve of it."
While New York was languishing under the tyranny of an alien government, 3,000 miles away, and its more prosperous inhabitants were indulging in social convivialities, the voice of Boston was being raised in protest against the injustice of English rule, and the nearest echo, a faint one, was to be heard in Philadelphia. Boston was at that time at the head of the patriotic procession in the North, and Faneuil Hall was the platform upon which the revolutionary patriots invoked the support of the friends of freedom throughout the world to resist the accumulated tyrannies recked in the Declaration of Independence—Earnest Harvie in the New York Times.

WANTS 13-CENT STAMP
College Class Shows How U. S. History Is Bound Up in "13."
Post Office Department Petitioned to Issue Stamps of That Denomination Again—Gives Some Interesting Facts.
Washington—Postmaster General Work has received from members of the American history class of the Shepherd college state normal school, Shepherdstown, W. Va., a petition that the Post Office department again issue stamps of the 13-cent denomination, which was recently abandoned.
The petition declares the entire history of the United States is bound up in the figure 13 and gives the following historical reasons why the 13-cent stamp should be issued:
America was discovered on the night of the 13th of the month.
The republic originally consisted of 13 colonies.

Troubles, for the State
Vienna.—Besides its little standing army of about 25,000 men and its state gendarmerie, Austria has two other armed and organized forces—both irregular and both probably without the pale of the treaty. In the opinion of many observers here the two last mentioned organizations may lead to trouble. They are the admittedly well-armed battle battalions and the growing "helmwehr" or conservative armed organizations of the provinces.
This provincial body is composed largely of the peasants and lesser professional classes and ex-officers, and is particularly strong in Styria and Tyrol. Tyrrol, just where the arms, ammunition and equipment were obtained is not known. The allied military control commission was supposed to have stripped the country of military material, but the fact remains that both these organizations are fully equipped and number many thousands. Recently the police found in one of the "helmwehr" headquarters not only guns and loaded clubs, but hand grenades and poison gases. Incidents in Styria recently showed the danger of these factions. In one case strikers captured and disarmed gendarms sent to subdue disturbances, whereupon the governor of the province ordered out the local detachments of the army. The army is also disarmed with a pathetic with the workers, but the soldiers obeyed orders, subdued the troublemen. The explanation is found in the fact that the governor has assembled 2,000 of his "helmwehr" and put them behind the soldiery.
ITALY'S DICTATOR LINGUIST
Benito Mussolini Speaks French, German and English—Once Professor.
Rome..Benito Mussolini, the young legal dictator of Italy, is an accomplished linguist. Besides his mother tongue, Italian, he possesses knowledge of French, German and English. He learned French at an early age and speaks it without the slightest accent. For some years before the war he was a professor of French literature at the University of Milan. While an editor on a newspaper published in Trento and owned by Cesare Baristi, the Italian patriot executed by the Austrians during the war, he studied German, and while his pronunciation is not on a par with his French he has a profound knowledge of Goethe's tongue.
Seriously wounded during the war, he remained two months in a hospital. There, during his convalescence, he took up the study of English.
"I hardly think I could qualify to make a speech in the American congress," he said recently, "but I read the English newspapers myself."
500,000 Miles to Work
Cape May, N. J.-Henry, Fleischau, a Philadelphia business man, claims all honors for being the champion New Jersey commuter. He asserts that he has completed 1,000,000 miles between Cape May and Philadelphia on the Western Jersey & Seaside railway. He lives at Cold Springs, two miles north of here. He has not missed a stormy weather. He has not missed a day with the exception of Sundays and holidays since 1900, when he moved to Cold Spring.
Calf Fails to Carry Tail Light So Owner Is Sued
Fresno, Cal.—Because AaA W. Allen failed to hang a tall light on a calf, Anthony Pohl has asked Justice of the Peace AaA W. Smith to award him $229.2F damages for injuries sustained to his automobile.
His automobile was damaged, says Pohl's complaint, when it hit a cow and blew black cow or half a night, fully, carelessly and negligently allowed to stray and roam upon the road unaccompanied by any person and without any lantern or light or anything to warn the public of its presence.
CANNIBALS HERE 4,000 YEARS AGO
Scientist Finds Portions of Human Skulls in Mounds Near Omaha.
RESEARCHES ARE IMPORTANT
Omaha, Neb.—In an effort to obtain evidence to support his belief that Nebraska was Inhabited 4,000 years ago by cannibalistic cave men, Dr. Robert F. Gilder, doctor of science, known throughout the West for his desert landscape canvases, has begun excavating a short distance south of Omaha. Permission was granted him after a dozen years of effort to induce owners of the land to permit the excavations.
The site of the excavations is marked by several eroded mounds which the scientist believes were community houses of the Omaha or Pawnee Indians. It is his theory that these mounds were built upon the foundations of the houses of the earlier tribe, possibly ancestors of the Mid-West Indians. In support of this belief, he has discovered that the upper structure—declared by him to have been built with mud and stone sides covered with thatch—had an entrance on the south, whereas the lower excavations clearly show entrances from the east.
Finds Bones of Men.
Using the Darwinian accumulation theory—one inch of earth to each century—Doctor Glider calculates that he has reached the 400,000-years ago surface level and there he has discovered portions of human skulls, arm and foot bones.
His discoveries include ashes, declared by him to be roasted human bones. From this he evolves the theory that the early inhabitants were cannibals. Some thirty or forty implements of bone and wood he has found are almost identical with creations unearthied by European archeologists, who have ascribed their area as preceding the histories.
Pace-Loving Race, He Saya. "We have established the fact," declared the portion "that there lived in this portion of the North American continent a peace-loving race prior to the time of the Indians, as we commonly apply the term. I deduce this from the fact that the houses were large enough to accommodate from ten to twelve families and that the dwellings are separated by considerable territory. If the race had been warlike, the individuals would have felt a common desire for close association and would have built houses in groups for mutual protection."
RADIUM IN NEW HAMPSHIRE
Edward Caron, a French-Canadian miner from Montana, has discovered radium in a mountain at Berlin, N. H. He has prospected with such success on a lot of woodland he purchased recently as to attract the attention of the United States bureau of mines. Engineers will investigate to determine the extent of the radium deposit. Caron is shown here with samples of the minerals he found on his property. In his left hand he holds a specimen of uranium, which contains radium. In his right hand is a specimen of beryl.
Wolves Menace Farmers
Warsaw, Ind.—Terrorized by the appearance of a flock of wolves driven from a swamp near here, by fire one morning recently, farmers kept their children indoors while others, with rifles and shotguns, accompanied their youngsters to school. Drivers of school hacks also were armed. While Roy Tople went to a field at the edge of the swamp to dig potatoes a large hound accompanying him was killed by six wolves. Cattle, sheep and hogs recently have been attacked by wolves. Families were organizing for a wolf hunt in white several hundred persons will participate.
Tenants Get Landlord's Estate.
Los Angeles—Tenants of George Leow, who died recently, learned they were his heirs. His estate, valued at $25,000, consists of five houses, which were devised to the families occupying the house. He was survived by no known relatives.

FIND PREHISTORIC BUILDINGS
Ancient Homes on Isle Royale Be lieved to Have Been Used by Copper Miners.
Port Arthur, Ont.-The remains of homes believed to have been used by prehistoric copper miners, have been found on Isle Royale, in Lake Superior, archaeologist, of Franklin, Pa.
"Mining was in progress there at least 1,000 years ago; how much longer we do not know," says Ferguson.
"We found pine trees six feet in diameter growing on the ancient rock dumps. There is an area two miles long and half a mile wide, over the whole of which we found remains of human habitations.
"There were larger pits which had been dug for homes. They ranged from eight to ten feet deep and were protected by carefully built stone walls which kept them free from water. The people incidentally used communal dwellings in some instances, as several of the pits were 20 by 40 feet, and one, which may have been a fort, was 20 by 50 feet.
"These people mined in solid rock the whole island over, but did not dig their shores more than 20 or 30 feet leep. Their tools were black egg-shaped stones of great hardness, such as are found on the north shore of Lake Superior but not on Isle Royale."
SMYRNA ARMENIAN LOSS BIG
Twenty Millionaires Pennies—23,000 Missing or Made Prisoners by Turk.
Athens.—The losses of the Armenian community in the losses of Smyrna total $118,000,000, according to a tabulation made by a committee under the direction of the bishop of Smyrna.
Sixty millions of this total is in real and personal property, and the remainder in intangible assets like stocks and bonds in Armenian companies operating in Asia Minor. The annual income of 8,000 Armenian families in Smyrna used to be 67,000,000 of which it is declared that 15 per cent was given to charities and to the church.
Smyrna, which was the richest Armenian community in the world before the coming of the Turkish army, had 20 millionaires, but today every one of these men is virtually penniless. The largest losers are the land owners, textile importers and exporters of fruits, cereals, carpets and opium.
The number of Armenians killed in Smyrna, according to the committee, is 4,000, and the number of persons missing or made prisoners, is stated to be 8,000 men and 15,000 women.
The most prominent Armenian business men killed were Sarkis and Kasparian, land owners, and Gurunian and Panossian, textile merchants.
Divorced and Remarried in Five Days.
Belle Plaine, Ia.—Divorced and then remarried within five days is the unusual record of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer R. Rusk. The Iowa law prohibits divorced persons remarrying within six months, so the couple crossed into Missouri for the second ceremony.

KILL TOO MANY WHALES
Valuable Industry Overworked,
Says British Expert.
Urges Legislation Against Further Hunting of Whales—Present Rate of Killing Will See Extermination in Another Decade.
London — London of whales continues at the present rate they will be exterminated before another decade, is the warning given by Sir Sidney F. Harmay, F. R. S., director of Natural history department of the British museum. Recent investigation carried out in the whaling areas has revealed this alarming condition, he says.
The whaling industry has survived since the time of Alfred the Great, despite the fact that there has never been a year known when scores of boats did not leave the ports of England, France, Spain and Scandinavia to hunt the sea animals. Sir Sidney declared in a recent address in which he urged legislation against further hunting of whales.
The Greenland variety of the whale is already thought to be extinct, and the hunting of the last few years has been confined almost entirely to the southern seas.
The profits derived from the killing of these cetaceans are enormous, and they increase yearly as the retail price of the oil and bone increases. A fair-sized whale has in its mouth a ton of whale-bone in its mouth, which alone is worth $10,000. It also produces about 30 tons of oil, worth about $100 a ton. In the season of 1915-16 the oil production from Antarctic whaling stations was 864,000 barrels, or about 94,400 tons.
During the war this oil was recognized as of vital importance in the manufacture of nitroglycerin. It is now used in the making of soap. The principal whales caught today are a species of roquales, or finwhales, the blue whale and the sperm whale. The latter, the hunting of which is principally confined to Americans, not only gives sperm oil but often contains ambergris, which is sold at $20 an ounce and used in the perfumery trade. The oil used for lubricating the wheels of watches comes from the dolphin and is the finest oil known.
HERE'S A HUMAN LANDLORD
Remembering Early Experience He Now Encourages Large Families to Occupy His Tenements.
Lewiston, Me.—If there is a saint's halo for landlords willing to admit large families into their tenements, J. O, Pollinqu, fifty-two years old and the father of eleven children, deserves one.
"Young people just starting out in married life should be encouraged in every way," he declares. "I had my experience a quarter of a century ago, being turned out of a home because there were three small children.
"You see, if you want your city to grow you must encourage large families, for the more of these there are the more people, the more patronage for the stores, the more business of all kinds. But you can't encourage this as long as every landlord shuts up his heart and waves away the fathers and mothers with little ones.
"I have one house for newlyweds exclusively; four rooms, curtains and gas stove. They swamped me with applications and only sixteen couples could get under the roof. Later these graduate into larger apartments, where more children can be accommodated."

VAST STOREHOUSE OF WEALTH
In Ita Potentialities Belgian Congo Might Be Called "the Brazil of
Washington, D. C. "Discovery in the Belgian Congo of large quantities of pitch-blende, a radium-bearing ore—a discovery credited with the significant result of reducing the price of radium from $120,000 to $70,000 a gram—has served to emphasize the probable great importance to the world of this country at the heart of Africa when it shall have been fully developed," says a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic society.
"In its potentialities, the Belgian Congo might be called 'the Brazil of Africa.'" continues the bulletin. "Like the largest of South American states, it is of vast extent, covers the heart of a continent, is situated in the tropics, and has flowing through it one of the world's greatest rivers, capable of carrying an empire's commerce.
Area One-Third That of U. S.
Perhaps the vast bulk of Belgian Congo can best be understood if one imagines the country lifted bodily and set down on the surface of the United States. Its 900,000 square miles would cover almost exactly one-third of the area, not including Alaska. If the southwestern corner of Congo were placed at San Diego, California, the southern boundary would roughly correspond with the Mexican border, and the southeastern corner would fall at the southern point of Texas. Forming a very rough square, its northeastern corner would lie at Des Moines and its northwestern corner in Yellowstone park.
"But though this comparison gives a good idea of Congo's great size, its latitude and climate are different from those of the states covered. If it were shifted to the Western Hemisphere in its true latitude it would lie astride the Amazon and would cover most of the Gulanas and a large slice of northern and central Brazil.
"What is now the Belgian Congo has had an unusual history. Livingstone and Stanley put the country 'on the map.' Soon afterward, in 1882, an international committee organized a government, called King Leopold of Belgium to be its ruler. Many irregularities in the administration of the region were alleged to have resulted in the death of 1906 Leopold ceded the territory to Belgium. A year later King Albert came to the Belgian throne, reforms were pushed in the Congo and a new constructive era began.
"Measured in dollars and effort expended, much has been done to open up the Belgian Congo. Fleets of government as well as private steamers the several navigable stretches of the Congo and the lakes. Railroads have been built around the various regions of raplids and falls, and are being joined into the interior, and ladd to connect with British and Portuguese lines at the borders. Scores of radio stations have been set up and now filing their messages where in the past savage drum signals alone were heard. The Belgians even have a trans-Congo airplane mail service which rushes European mail across the country twice a month on the arrival of steamers at the Atlantic port of Bonna, at the mouth of the Congo. Contains Gorilla-Haunted Eden. "But with all this activity, the surface of the Belgian Congo's possibilities has barely been scratched. Eroded tropical jungles like those of the Amazon valley await proper forestry. In the southeast are extensive rolling prairies teeming with game, that, with the solution of the tsetse fly problem, would make excellent cattle ranges. And the mineral discoveries that the mineral stores of the country are seemingly unlimited. Copper, tin, gold, and diamonds to the value of many millions of dollars have been extracted. Some coal and iron is mined and it is believed that much more exists. Now, when science is fenced-up-making uses for radioactive substances, the opening up of what is believed to be the world's richest radium ores caps Congo's mineral climax.
"Congo is not entirely a torrid land. In the extreme east around Lake Kivu—itself 6,000 feet above the sea—rise mountains as high as Pike's Peak. In this upland region the weather is delightful and the slopes and valleys are described by travelers as among the world's beauty spots. Nearby the night sky is lighted by the boiling cauldron of Africa's Kliwae. This Eden is the home of large numbers of man's closest non-human relatives, gorillas the solitary government is undergoing a development in this area as a gorilla refuge where the creatures can be preserved from the extinction which threatens them, and where scientists may study them in their natural haunts. Naturalists have found that unless corroded these gorillas are far from ferulous, and it is predicted that if protected they will become entirely tamed."

W. H. REAMS TO OPERATE CAFE
W. H. Reams who some time ago operated the Acme Club Cafe, $317\%$ Wabasha street, will again assume the management of the cafe, starting Monday morning, January 1, 1923. During the time Mr. Reams had charge of the cafe, the brand of cooking and the meals he turned out, brought many new customers to the cafe. Under his management the cafe did more business and made more satisfied dinners than any other previous management. According to Mr. Reams he will conduct his business in the usual progressive manner. In addition to the
W. H. REAMS
present counter system now in service, he will open a new dining room for ladies and gentlemen. In connection with this dining room, Mr Reams plans to give extra service and a number of features to attract women patronage. Many of Mr. Reams' friends welcome him, his return to the cafe business here as extremely good news. He should do well. He is a prominent Elk, also a member of the Shriner lodge of Indianapolis, Ind.

Disabled Soldiers May Still Apply For Compensation
Disabled Soldiers May Still Apply For Compensation
Some confusion has been caused by the widespread publication of the statement that applications for vocational training could not be received by the United States Veterans' Bureau after December 16, which date was fixed by law. This was interpreted to mean that no claims of any kind could be filed after that date. This is a wrong conclusion. It is required that claims for compensation shall be filed within five years from date of discharge or resignation from the service, or in case of death during the service, within five years after such death is officially recorded in the department under which he may be serving. If at the time any right accrues to any person, such person is of unsound mind or physically unable to make a claim, the time provided shall not begin to run until such disability occurred. Therefore, claims for compensation may still be received, provided the death or disability comes within the requirements of the paragraphs above.
It is highly desirable, however, that men who have any disability which they believe will be incurred in the service should file their application at once. The longer the application is processed, the difficult it becomes to establish the connection between the disability and the man's military or naval service.

Howard Dental Graduates Make Excellent Records
Washington, D. C., Dec. 27.—According to reports which have been received the work of the three Howard dental graduates who are serving an internship in the Forsyth Dental Infirmary, Boston, Mass., the first institution to be established in this country for the free treatment and care of children's teeth, is worthy of much praise. In the recent efficiency examination in which forty-four of the fifty internes at this infirmary participated only thirteen passed, three of these successful participants were the three Howard men now serving at the infirmary. The three Howard dental graduates are Doctors Arnold B. Donowa, Paul H. Alexander, and John Chiles, all three members of the class of 1922 of the Howard University School of Dentistry.
Dr. Donowa is at present chief operator of the X-ray clinic and checks up the work of all root clinical operators. Dr. Chiles was senior operator in anaesthesia clinic and is at present senior operator of extracting clinic in the afternoon. Dr. Alexander has the honor of being assigned to three major clinics, was senior operator in orthopedic clinic and at present is senior operator in extracting clinic in the morning. Dr. Donowa enjoys the reputation of being the best interne on the staff.
The fifty internes at the Forsyth Dental Infirmary represent the following dental schools: Northwestern Dental School, University of California School of Dentistry, the University of Pennsylvania Dental School, Baltimore College of Dental and Oral Surgery, Tufts School of Dentistry, Harvard Dental School, University of Minnesota, University of Marquette, University of North Dakota, Howard University School of Dentistry, and New York College of Dental and Oral Surgery.

RAINY DAY MANNERS
"When the dismal rain comes down in slanting lines."
SO MUCH depends on good manners on a rainy day!
The ill-bred and inconsiderate man or woman is tiresome enough at any time, but when there is rain in the air and mud underfoot he or she is positively unendurable.
One has to be especially careful in walking in a crowded street when pedestrians carry open umbrellas, and considerable forbearance and good nature are required when by chance another person's opened umbrella becomes entangled in your vell or in the trimming on your hat. Closed wet umbrellas are likewise difficult to manage, especially in public conveyances. Be on your guard lest they lean or drip against your neighbor. When entering a public place—a library, or restaurant or church, for instance—where there is any way to leave a wet umbrella in the vestibule or the entrance hall do so by all means. In many department stores a boy with a checking rack is placed at the doors for your convenience and, although you are not required to check your wet umbrella, there is usually the desire that you will. Take the few 'additional minutes that are necessary for this operation and so avoid annoying other people with your wet umbrella.
In many homes there is an umbrella receptacle in the vestibule and when entering you can very conveniently leave your wet umbrella there. Your rubbers can also be slipped off in the vestibule. In other houses there is an entrance hall in which it is more convenient to deposit your wet umbrella and rubbers, but whatever you do, do not cling to these wet possessions when you go into the living quarters of the house.
If friends come to your house on a rainy day it is only the part of hospitality to offer aid in removing their damp garments and in urging them to take a chair near the fire or other heat.
If you have accepted an invitation for a certain day and it chances to be rainy you should not permit that fact to keep you from being pres at unless by so doing you would actually be endangering your health.

There is only one arrangement that absolutely prevents clothes from wrinkling. That arrangement is patented and is an exclusive feature of Hartmann Wardrobe trunks.

PT WAS th’ funniest thing, and the
way we laughed
As we sat there all alone,
Would have made one think we both
._ were daft
It the truth were not made known.
But the baby laughed ‘cause she saw
it first,
And she shook her sides with glee;
And then the fun of it quickly burst
Upon her old Dad—that’s me.
‘The way it happened was just this
way:
Baby, and I were there,
She fn the erfb on the pillows lay,
im my easy chair.
‘The warm sun shone in the cozy room
And lighted the baby's face
"TU it loked as pure as the Lily's
bloom,
And fair as the Illy's grace.
‘The baby looked at her Dad a while,
Her blue eyes full of fun,
And over her face « little smile
Ripple and broke and run.
Dad smiled right back—she smiled
some more—
‘Then both just shook with glee;
And mamma peeped in at the open
door
+ Mo see what the fun might be.
Bat the baby holds the secret well—
‘Never a word says she.
‘The joke was bully, and she won't
tell;
And nelther will Dad—that’s me.
But, ob, ‘twas a wonderful joke we
had,
Just shared between us two,
Baby Blue Byes and her doting Dad—
‘And don't you wish you knew?

YOUR TEMPER
MEEN hermes rivers and make them
work. Some day they will con-
tinue the experiments begun by Benja-
min Franklin and harness lightning
itself. They have already hitched
electricity in another form, to most
of the wagons of industry.
Energy, controlled, is tremendously
useful. Uncontrolled it is tremendous-
ly destructive.
Temper is highly concentrated en-
ergy. Allowed to take its own course,
it Is capable of doing infinite damage.
Controlled, kept in check, and 4i-
rected into useful channels, it is an
‘asset that can be turned into ready
money.
If you have a high temper it is proof
that you have energy. Lazy, languld
men never get angry or excited.
| But your fité of anger, your explo-
‘sions of temper, are sheer waste of
‘the energy that is stored up in you.
‘They lose you your friends. ‘They
destroy your judgment. They bring
jabout consequences which you. cannot
foresee and from which you may never
Tecover.
Harness your temper as men har
mess the energy that is stored in. moun-
tain torrents. Employ the “pep” that
now goes to waste when you fiy off
your handle, in attacking your job.
If you have got to get excited, get
excited over your work. If you are
bound to get mad, get mad at your.
self for not accomplishing more than
you are accomplishing.
Nothing important 1s ever done with-
out energy. And If your energy 1s7l-
lowed to run away, as does the uncon-
trolled stream, you will have none left
with which to do the great things
which you have planned to do.
‘Temper, kept within bounds, proper-
Jy directed, will carry a man far on
his way to success and happiness.
Permitted to “blow up” it will keep
him in continual trouble, and land him
In the poor house if he is fortunate
enough to escape Jail.

Government Insurance Benefits
Persons who were in the military
or naval service during the World
War may obtain death and disability
insurance from the government up to
the amount they carried in the serv-
ice, maximum ten thousand dollars.
Some of the benefits of government
insurance are:
1. War term insurance may _ be
converted into permanent standard
forms of government insurance.
2. No charge is made in, the pre-
mium for total disability benefit in
the policy.
3. No limit, is made as to age in
case of a disability.
4. No restrictions as to residence,
travel, occupation, military and naval
service,
5. Dividends are _ accumulated
through excess interest earnings over
three and one-half (3%%) per cent
plus any mortality savings, and paid
to all those whose insurance has been
in force more than one year.
6. In case of illness, premiums
may be waived by insured until re-
covered, if proper application for
same is made.
7. No matter what a man’s dis-
ability may be, or its degree, pro-
vided it is due to his military service
and he has not been declared a per-
manent total, he will be accented, on
payment of all back payments due
from date of lapse, plus five per cent
‘interest, compounded annually on
2 twenty-year endowment, the ex-
tended insurance value would take
care of all payments of premiums for
the remaining sixteen years, BUT, by
so doing, the insured would draw only
the face value of his policy.
