[E D IT O R IA L ]Vinalhaven, or Vinal Haven?During the past six months this is the question which The

Courier-Gazette has been placing before its readers with especial reference to the residents of the good old island town across the Bay. The "Jury" having failed to make a definite And outspoken response, and we put the matter up to the town’s capable and versatile postmaster, O. V. Drew. As the result of his diagnosis we are reverting to the former style of one word, and hereafter the old discarded steamboat, docked on the other side of Lermond’s Cove, will have to bear the sole responsibility of carrying the name in double-jointed fashion. Commencing today, and probably for all time, it will be "Vinalhaven" as far as this paper is concerned. Here is Postmaster Drew s letter:

"Reading your letter I remembered you had something in The Courier-Gazette on this matter some time ago. and at that time I almost wrote you, but finally decided to keep my nose out of somebody else's business. However, I do know something about the change in the name from Vinal Haven to Vinalhaven. Without doubt the original and first name was spelled as two words. But you know Uncle Sam is very fussy as to how the names of hls post offices are spelled, so along in tlie early 1900's about the time that Fred Littlefield was postmaster, Uncle Sam must have decided to use one word, for that is the way it Ls on the Post Office and the way It is on our money orders.

"How the government arrived at the change I do not know, but I do remember that along ln 1920 or 1921, when I was acting postmaster, the Post Office Department inquired of me again as to the usage and spelling that was favored by the people of the town, and I remember that I recom­mended the one word spelling. Out of curiosity I looked over some of the mail that is in the office and I should say that eight out of ten of the spellings were one word. And I should say that a larger percentage than this of the natives use the one word spelling. It is safe to say that a large majority of Vinalhaven people (avor the one word. It ls easier to write on the typewriter, it distinguishes it some from Vineyard Haven, and also sets it apart from North Haven.

"You ask why North Haven is used as two words. Did you ever see a town named with either North, East. South or West, that was one word? Well, you might say Northeast Harbor But note that another word follows after I have the postal guide before me and the rule seems to be followed throughout. The town of North East is spelled as two. but Northeast Station is as spelled. Another case I note is the Westside and West Side Station But to gum the thing up further I find Westhaven. Calif, and West Haven. Conn., so I guess the thing simmers down to local preference and usage, and in that case I should say that Vinalhaven held the choice over Vinal Haven.’’

THE FIRST CURVE BALL

Out in the suburbs of Detroit Fred Goldsmith, old-time ball player, is dead at the age of 86. Fame has attached to him all these years because he was reported to be the first man to throw a curved ball, away back in 1867 We had always suppased that distinction belonged to J. A.

Read The Courier-Oazette

Henry B Bird thought The Black Cat would be interested in two old newspaper receipts issued during the Gay Nineties, and so I was, for one of them bore my own name signed to a Rockland Tribune re­ceipt and the other carried the name of the late John W. Thomas on a receipt from the Rockport News, which he was then publish­ing. Both were made out in the name of John Pascal. For the benefit of young readers let it be knowu that tlie Rockland Tribune was the successor to the old estab­lished Fite Press so ably edited by the late Edwin Sprague. W. O. Puller returning to Maine Journal­ism after an absence of some years in the West, bought the plant, and was producing one of the State's best weeklies when the opportunity presented itself for merging with The Courier-Gazette, and back he went to hls old love, which grew rapidly until it developed into the present thrice a week journal.

John W Thomas was with The Courier-Oazette for a number of year mainly in the capacity of ad­vertising manager, although his duties were varied, and for a time included editorial work. During his residence In Rockland, where he ended his days, Mr. Thomas was secretary of the Rockland Cham­ber of Commerce, and had one hobby in which we was conceded to have excelled—bowling. The Healey alleys were In existence at that time, and John and I both spent much of our idle time there. The alleys balls, and pins were not comparable to those now in use. but I know that John Thomas threw the smoothest ball th a t was ever sent down a Rockland alley, and was a wizard in picking off a single stick.

One hundred patrons gathered around the supper tables at the Baptist Church in Thomaston Wed­nesday night, sat ln silence await­ing the word. The pastor, Rev. Donald Perron was in the kitchen superintending affairs, for it was a men's supper Suddenly a voice was heard, faint at first but gaining In Inflection. It was the voice of the pastor's 6-year old son asking the blessing and he went through with It unfalteringly. I think every per­son in that gathering was awed. I know I was.

Prom the collection of old news­papers loaned to me by Harry M. Pratt I find a copy of the Lime Rock Oazette published Jan. 6. 1848. The chief news page was largely devoted to an earthquake in Mexico, and an extended article complimen­tary to "Daddy” Paine, a schoolmas­ter of that period. There was a Rockland Oazette of Feb 27, 1851, ln which appeared a two-column article on "Temperance," signed by "J. W." Even In that day they figured that "the rum traffic is murder."

A Union correspondent writes: " I t might interest The Black Cat to know there are 47 widows within three miles of Union Common.”

During the excitement occasioned by becoming a father, most men are inclined to “lose their heads. " Not so with A C. Mercer of Huntsville, Alabama. He not only “kept hts head," but managed to keep calm and collected enough to transact a couple of sales. Mercer, who ls in tlie automobile business, sold the doctor who attended Mrs. Mercer a new Studebaker sedan and then followed up by making another sale

While the baseball season may seem a 'long way off it is really "just around the comer " In two more weeks the major leagues swing into action. What is of more importance to the fans of this vicinity is the fact that the Knox-Lincoln Leagu? will get started in about four weeks

Because of the recent snowstorms I have been unable to start practice but as I coached last spring and

| had fall baseball I have a vague I idea of what to expect this spring;I also some idea how they will line- i up for the season.

Lettermen returning are: Howard Orne. Leslie Simpson. Clayton Stewart. Leland Overlock. Harold Sawyer. Dana Sawyer, and Howard Miller. Others returning from last year's squad are: Norman Overlock Charlie Simpson. Charlie Grover, Kendall Orff Glen Simpson, Walter Henry. Toivo Suomela. and May­nard Linscott.

I expect that several Freshmen will be of help in this spring's cam­paign. One of the most promising is young Staples. From his show­ing last fall Staples is sure to win a regular position. He will probably get the call over Norman Overlock and Clayton Stewart at third base. Other freshmen who looked good last fall were: Day. a big outfielder, and Walt Chapman, a fast moving catcher.

As far as positions arc concerned I think that my team will line-up as follows:

The catching department will be handled by Dana Sawyer. Sawyer is only a Sophomore and I feel that his playing last season has given

probably get the call over Norm Overlock. Stewart, and Simpson for this position.

The outfield will be made up of newcomers.

Rockland and Vinalhaven seem to be the teams to beat for the pen­nant. Rockland has several vet­erans returning and will turn out a team that should have something to say about the race. In my opinion Rockland had the best “heads-up" ball club in the league last year and should field a good

The Elks won four points in a match last week with Rice Co., who won the first string by six pins. Charlie Cargill was at it again, roll­ing 336 for high total and Freddie Walker had 128 for high single

i "Leif Erickson, veteran catcher forthree years I am looking forward with a great deal of interest for the games with Vinalhaven this year. Last year we lost two heart -1 breaking games to Vinalhaven The first game went 13 innings and the score was 3 to 1. the second played at Vinalhaven was a real slugging bee and the final score was 9 to 8.

St Oeorge is always noted for its hitting strength and if it gets the necessary pitching may be the dark horse of the League

Camden and Lincoln lost several players by graduation and I do not feel that they will be as strong as in former years. Anything can happen in baseball and either one of these clubs may pull a surprise.

Taking everything into considera­tion the race looks to be evenly matched. It looks like a banner year for the teams of the Knox- Lincoln League and there should be action galore during the month of May. May the best team win!

First base will find Howard Miller getting the call over all other can­didates. Playing as a freshman his fielding was very good but at the plate his work was not satis­factory. With one year's experience and more confidence this boy may develop into one of the best hitters on the club. He is a long distance hitter.

Second base will be taken care of by Howard Orne. regular from last year. Orne was one of the best hitters on the team last season. Hs Is the "Pepper Martin" type of ball player—not so graceful, but very effective. One of the hardest workers on the club and a real asset.

Editor of The Courier-Gazette:—The bowling season is about to

close. With spring ready to step up to the foul line, maybe a review of the Knox County title games would be interesting.

In 1936-1937. Frank Gardner claimed the championship and was snapped up on it right away by Ken Roes of Thomaston- Mr. Rccs proceeded to take Frank over the hurdles by defeating him in 10 strings, and this placed the crown over in the bog for a few weeks

Gardner managed to grab the crown back again from the same Roes and went on to defeat Mitchell who also rolled 10 strings for the title. About this time there ap­peared on the horizon a man who was to create great excitement In Kncx County bowling circles, the one and only Great Arico. who. by his personality, courage and good sportsmanship, was to cause many good men to take a back seat.

Arico slapped Gardner down and grabbed the title which made a few of Chickadee Maynard's Scouts around tewn tear their hair. -Mike then brushed aside Mr. Carr. Hobbs. Steeves. Stevenson of Camden. Gardner again. Williams. Elk's champ and lost a non-title match to Grover the present champ.

"Handsome D anny' Dandeneau took the title from Arico 2179 to 2134. In the last 10 strings of this 20 total, one of the most exciting games ever bowled in Knox County took place. Danny had 1U0 and Arico 1127. the highest either has ever bowled in competition.

Holding onto the title was a slip­pery job for Danny who was taken into camp by Phil Grover of Cam­den who hit all time high for these games. 1130 for 10 and 2204 for 20. Last week Mr. Gardner started an­other 20 total by losing to Grover 1138 to 1026 which is Frank's worst defeat in many moons of bowling- 112 pins behind the champ in ths first 10.

This is a sure win for Grover and the title will remain in Camden un­til next year unless The Great Arico returns to the lanes for the big attempt. Phil, the champion, with 1138 for 10 was high man in these struggles and Gardner was low 961. the night he lost the title to Roes This is 177 pins difference high to low in the title games

Summing it all up. it says in large words that during the past three years in Rockland there has been some fine bowling which l | judge has been enjoyed by the fans j of Knox County. From the records' and due to his 11O0 or better totals, Phil Grover seems to be the class! of the field, with Arico second. | Danny having bowled only 40 strings j in this series, shows the best two consecutive 20-totals for a Rockland 'bowler. Airico having’ rolled 169 strings in competition.

It is the talk around Camden that Grover may bowl Keith Of Bangor

Editor of Tire Courier-Gazette;—“American Merchant Ships 1850-

1900'' by Frederick O. Matthews is a volume of 400 pages with many pictures of ships and captains. The Watts family is quite prominent, there being no less than 11 men­tioned, the most of them having been born in St. George or cf the same family.

Alphabetically, the Watts listed are: Alfred, born in St. George in 1816. brother of Capt. Samuel Watts; C. A., caotain of bark. Pac- tolus, of Halifax. N. S ; E. A., cap­tain of ship, Susquehanna, when lost in August 1905 (?); Edwin, cap­tain of ship. L. B. Gillchrest. a Sam­uel Watts ship.

Are you agreeing with spring that the sighing snow will soon be bab­bling brooks, that the stiff pale ground will be opening for driving yellow shoots, that the coming flowers will still be wearing their old-fashioned dresses? Then for you a book has been written—a book that will tie you to a string of soft bells as you turn the pages.

Palm BranchesPalm Sunday always appealed

to me, as it is observed by Chris­tian Catholics. Every year as they pour forth from Mass, young and old carry strips of palm leaves- Some bear them home tenderly, others drop them carelessly. So we are prone to act with sacred things.

These green branches in the spring, symbolic of Christ's ride into Jerusalem, beloved by the people he had healed and helped and taught; hated by those, who within a few hours, were to tor­ture and kill him at Calvary. Branches that call to remem­brance the coming of the King of Kings when he rode upon the colt; while multitude cast their garments and branches from the trees before him as they quoted from the ancient psalm—“Save now I beseech thee O Lord. Blessed is he tha t cometh in the name of the Lord.”

As I sat by the bedside of my younger brother in the hospital, he asked me to bring him the little cross upon the opposite wall. When I founa it, there was one of these palm branches, some devoted soul had sewed into the shape of a cross. He said “Will. I am going on a long journey and it will comfort me.” In the face of one of winter's worst blizzards he went, com­forted by this act of one who was to never know the solace lt wrought.

By still waters and in strange ways He restoreth our souls. So centuries ago Jesus entered into Jerusalem and into the Temple unafraid—“and when he had looked around He went out ”

—William A Holman

ALMON B. COOPER

Almon Bird Cooper died early yesterday morning at his home, 149 Llmerock street, after an illness of some months. The funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at the Universalist Church, Rev. John Smith Lowe. D. D . officiating.

Mr. Cooper was born at North Haven Jan. 3. 1887 son of Edmund and Flora (Tolmani Ccoper. He attended the grammar school in Hyde Park, M ass. where he worked for a time and in 1906 graduated from Coburn Classical Institute. Coming to Rockland he attended the Commeicial College, working mean­time at the clothing store of Mayo & Rose.

April 1, 1910, he took the agency of the Eastern Steamship Company at North Haven. In connection with his duties there he worked for the Vinalhaven Light & Power Com­pany at the time electricity was first conveyed to the island. He also served as selectman for the town of North Haven several years.

Jan. 1, 1925, found him again a resident of Rockland, this time In th? capacity of purchasing agent for the (Bicknell Manufacturing Com­pany. a position which he held at the time of his death. He was a member of the Universalist Church, and at the time of his death was worshipful master of Aurora Lodg". F.A.M. He was a past high priest of King Solomon's Temple Chapter. R.AM. His fondnes; for instru­mental music found expression througli his membership in the Rockland City Band. He was uni­versally liked and respected.

Mr. Cooper was married Oct. 5. 1910. to Miss Lencra Kennlston of Rockland, who survives him, to­gether with two sons, Alinon. Jr., and Douglas K. Cooper; one daugh­ter. Betsy Hall Cooper; and his aunt, Mrs. H. M. INoyeg of North Haven, with whom he made his home after the death of his father, and who gave him a mother's affection.

east. Wo notice a man ahead of us on the river bank who is evidently a native by his looks and attire, and as we catch up with him, we stop Io inquire about the fish, and this is

< what he says: "The fishes are going up the brooks as they open. They are dispersing themselves through the fields and woods, imparting new life to them. The water running down meets tlie fishes running up.

“They hear the latest news. Little fislics are seeking the sources of the brooks, seeking to disseminate their principles. Talk about a re­vival of religion! What if it were as true and wholesome a revival as the little fishes feel which come out of the sluggish waters and run up the brooks toward their sources? All nature revives a t this season. With iter it is really a new life.

“Do the fishes stay to hold prayer meetings in Fairhaven Bay while some montrous pike gulps them down? No wonder we feel the spring influences. There is a mo-

i tion in the very ground under our feet. Each rill is peopled with new life rushing up it. If a man does not revive with nature in the spring, how shall he revive when he is prayed for?”

Some of Tlie Courier-Gazette readers may recognize the Wayside Philosopher. I am quite sure one reader will, for she had a long dis­tance debate with a Columbia Uni­versity professor upon the question: Resolved—That the Wayside Phil­osopher was a greater philosopher than Ralph Waldo Emerson. She took the affirmative and won debate. In the vernacular. Emerson was “a smooth talker and writer" but his philosophies were all sugar-coated. The Wayside Philosopher’s philoso­phies cut to the bone, but they were true. Read them and think it over. N . C . C. 2.

For 26 years Miss Porter was head of the history department of Ra­cine High School, during much of the time under the superintendenev of Frank M Longanecker. now superintendent of the School for the Blind in Janesville. She re tired In 1923.

Among her pupils during her long period of service in Racine was Freddie Bickel, who has since be­come famous as a motion picture star under the name of Frederic March. March, who created his stage name by using a shortened form of his mother's maiden name, Marchand, wrote to Miss Porter in 1936. recalling the days when he was her pupil and asking her to write to him. His devotion to his former teacher was typical of the esteem in which she was held by all her former students and the high school annual was dedicated to her on the occasion of her 25th anniversary of service there.

Miss Porter was born in Decatur, Green County, 6ept. 3, 1859. daugh­ter of William M. and Aura (Wheeler) Porter. When she was six years old she moved with her parents to Cooksville, town of Por­ter. the township having derived its name from Mr. Porter’s uncle. Dr John Porter.

Dr- Porter acquired the land in 1842 from Daniel Webster and set aside a strip In Cooksville as a com­mon. a tract of land which still exists for that purpose.

Miss Porter was graduated from Whitewater normal school and the University of Wisconsin, later ob­taining her master’s degree at the University. Before going to Racine she taught at Brooklyn, Fulton and Waukesha. As a teacher she wa-i outstanding, and held the love, re­spect and loyalty of her family, pupils and friends. She was a lov­er of nature and for many years headed the Audubon society.

She was a member of the Con­gregational church, Racine, and aided materially the Cooksville Con­gregational Church during the years of iU existence. She was also a member of the Racine chapter of the D.AJR.

Miss Porter’s father, William Porter, was a deacon in the Congre­gational Church, which was one of the first structures of worship to be built in the community.

Since retiring as a teacher, Miss Porter had spent her winters in Madison and Racine, and her sum- mere at a home she maintained at

The Christian E n­deavor service will be at 6 The evening service will be held in the Church on the Ridge at 7.. The prayer meeting will be Thursday a t 7 o’clock.

The special evangelistic services held in the Baptist Church March 15-24 were well attended. The largest attendance for any one night was March 23 with 175. The aver­age was 95. Rev. John W Hyssop*? brought many helpful me'sages with the result that six young people responded. One of the greatest a t ­tractions was the young people's choir It is not often that such a fine large group with musical talent is found in so small a community. This group was present every night and added much to the song service besides having a special number each night. Mrs. Virginia Kinney who is the leader of the choir, played each night for 15 minutes be­fore the service.

Designates the Oppon­ents Of S ta te Lottery

Appleton. March 28 Editor of The Courier-Gazette:—

In your news item s “At the State Capitol March 25 the writer notes that the "Legal Affairs committee" reported unfavorably upon the State Lottery Bill. The adverse re­port will no doubt aid in the stran- gulatisn of this bill las it did! but it will b; interesting to learn by what clever ac t of legerdemain the present legislature will raise the necessary funds for old age pensions without adding to the tax burdens which are nearing the last straw limit.

It If reported that we are now paying benefits to 11,800 old people; that we have a list of 4000 more names already approved, and it is estimated tha t there will be even­tually a grand total of 20.000. We have been promised there will not be an increase in taxes (may be Hitler promised) and printing presses are taboo. There is in addi­tion an administration expense of about $10 000 per month to be taken care of.

The Federal government has but recently announced the Maine allot­ment for our old age pension ($386,- 427) for the m onths of April. May and June, and of course we m ust raise an equal sum which will give us $772,854 to distribute among 15,800 persons or $257,618 a month which means $16.30 will be the aver­age monthly payment to each pen­sioner or $4 35 less than the present average.

If the foregoing hypothesis Is correct it 1s apparent that if the

In Biblical Debate— Pas­tor A ccused o f “Straying”

Editor of The Courier-Gazette:—It is well that Rev Mr. Watts has

gone to find one of his straying lambs and return it to the flock. But now he himself seems to be stray­ing from such teachings.

All through tills little debate, Mr Watts has quibbled and split hairs, ignoring entirely the main point at issue, which is:

Was Christ a friend and cham­pion of the poor, the down-trodden and despised, or was he a com­panion and upholder of the rich, the mighty, the rulers?

I gave several quotations from the new Testament, to prove that Christ was always and everywhere the champion of the poor. These quotations Mr. Watts pays no a t­tention to and his “straying lamb" calls them "trash!"

Does Mr. Watts endorse the fol­lowing Bible quotations, or does he repudiate them?

(1) 'The love of money is the root of all evil."

(2) “Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's this money) and unto God that which is God's."

13) 'It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of Heaven.

In Cecil Roberts’ new novel "They Wanted To Live,” Jim Brown, the young porter of "Victoria Fcur- Thirty" (Mr Roberts' previous novel) has realized hts dream of a Euro­pean honeymoon. With his bride he sees Parts, Vienna and Hungary un­der the guidance of Henry Waddle a connoLsseur of folk -dancing. The young couple's exciting experi­ences include the spiriting away from the Nazis of the adopted boy of Hei r Ocllwitzer—a famoujs conductor— and adventures as guests of two gay Hungarian noblemen. The unex­pected climax of the story presents a dark and dramatic contrast to the heady music of the Hungarian scene. The book came from the Macmillan press on March 21

Inasmuch as the now impending i crisis between the full assertion of human equality and the exist­ence of private capitalism was in­comparably the most radical issue of the sort that had ever arisen, the attitude of the churches was likely to have a critical effect upon their future.

As a ray of sunshine through darkened paths of dread shines forth the light of medical science, dedicated to humanity, alive to Its needs and sworn to serve in stead­fast zeal, be the summons what It may. Applying the principle to home ground, consider the Knox Hospital. worthy county institution and alert­ly "at attention" the deck around.

A closer bend of knowledge and understanding as between the gen­eral public and its haven of health is earnestly desired among the hos­pital authorities. Extending a hand in appeal for sympathetic comrade­ship and a united cause, the Knox staff offers gladly to allay whatever apprehension may exist In the lay mind, by daily demonstrations of its scientific routine, accompanying the processes with detailed explanations. No longer Is the profession hedged about by a mysterious language of its own, this antiquated condition being now replaced by straightfor­ward bids fcr general insight and co­operation on the pert of Mr and Mrs. Common Citizen and family.

Nettling suffices toward allaying awe of a nursing home quite ns satisfactorily as does an inspection of it while one is in normal health. May 12 is Annual Hospital Day (for visitors) but a t any time arrange­ments for an Individual visit may be made with the superintendent. Miss Ellen C. Daly who welcomes the opportunity to supply informa­tion and examples of what is actu­ally being accomplished in the re­building of health and happiness.

As one softly moves through the quiet corridors with healing on cither side, there comes the thought. "Aye, this is hallowed ground." And so It Is. Departments are segregat­ed, each r.iche of service a law unto itself, yet all meshing together fcr the eventual cure of the patient.

I Mothers will linger at the nursery door where precious babes may be seen only through glass, safely re­moved from all possible Contagion Further on Is the children’s watd and here a tug a t the heartstrings is eased only by the remembrance that though ill the ..itle tots are getting better under tender, know-

i ing care.Accident cases are entered on the

basement floor convenient to the

x-ray room. In this section of tne building there is also a cclonlc irri­gation table, one of the finest in the State, and Mr. and Mrs. Citizen will be duly impressed with its tubes and gadgets. Working hand in glove with all departments is the laboratory. In charge of a technician, and after a pause here the cursory tour continues, including the diet kitchen, operating room, dellve.y room and in short the entire effici­ent ensemble of remedial machinery.

If other reasons be sought for jtn-: selecticn of Knox Hospital In time of medical cr surgical urgency, here, they are: For its type, it is equipped far above the average hospital, thus eliminating any concern regarding Its professional adequacy. Its staff, exclusive cf doctors and surgeons, consists of the superintendent, as­sistant superintendent floor super­visors, nurses’ instructor, night su­pervisor, technician, operating room supervisor and dietitian.

Owing to its relatively small size, there Is possible a personal and more intimate contact between patient and staff than could be secured In a large city clinic; in ether words, s . The Knox. Mrs. Citizen, with her appendix, is not merely another "case "—she Is a distinct Individual and probably known or known of, through community affiliations. In convalescence this feature is particu­larly important, as also is the pcir.t of being near relatives and friends.

And so, Mrs. Citizen having de­cided to enter the local infirmary for her appendectomy (used simply as an example for narrative pur­pose) she needs must chcose a room and give seme thought to the cost thereof. Financial arrangements1 mu6t be made on entrance, for It Is1 necessary that the authorities know how the expense is to be met. This is not a question of being heartlessly mercenary, it is a question of busi­ness. Hospitals cannct run without money any more than a business can. Trying to make ends meet often gives the superintendent a more se­vere headache than that ever suf­fered by any cf her patients.

If Mrs Citizen is of limited means, the ward, with its greater sociability and minimum charge, might be advisable. Rates are $3 a day in the ward and the basic treatment is pre­cisely the same as in private rooms which range in cost from $4 to $C. the only distinction being in the type of dishes and a slight variation in diet. In the higher priced rooms a menu is submitted daily and any reasonable alterations may be marie if it meets the diet requirements. The maintenance expense of any patient is estimated at $4.50 a day.

It is recommended that the pa­tient procure admission the night previous to an operation to allow time fcr thorough examination. T h;s system is also uicd to avoid hurrlec- ness in the morning, and the pa­tient having become somewhat "ac­climated'' sc to speak does not suf­fer so much from distraught nerves as might otherwise be the case.

Mrs. Citizen therefore composes herself for a night's rest, and with the readers’ permission will proceed with her Knox Hospital experiences in a subsequent issue

The economy committee's bill provided emergency aid would be extended to only cities and towns whose affairs were under management of the State board, or those having made voluntary application for such con­trol.

• » • •Two “economy'' measures seeking

to remove State appropriations af­fecting the blueberry and poultry industries were opposed yesterday at a hearing before the Legislative Agriculture Committee.

One bill proposed to save approxi­mately $6000 annually by eliminating the blueberry fly control and the other an estimated $3500 by takii g away support from the annual poul­try contest at Highmoor Farm. Monmouth.

Representative S. Arthur Paul, a member of a special legislative com­mittee which drafted various "econ­omy" bills last week, explained the State was “trying to economize for the general good in a way that would do the least possible harm.” He said the committee felt that tne inspection of blueberries and the poultry contest should be “self sup­porting or taken over by their own industries and taxpayers relieved of this cost.”

Paul was the only proponent cf the bills.,

from 3 to 4 cents per dozen must be made for storage costs of all kinds. The results of the preceding storage season, from the viewpoint of the operator, have a bearing on storage demand and therefore upon the level of egg prices in late win­ter and early spring and also tend to affect the quantity of eggs stored.

The average storage margin dur­ing 1938, as measured In this way, was 3.57 cents per dozen—just about enough to allow the storage opera­tor to break even.”

IF YOU want to give your Imagina­tion free rein on something—Just

try taking table-top pictures during a few of the long winter evenings.

With a few simple materials that ran be picked up around almost any house, you can create all sorts of picture situations—in either comic or serious vein. Spread out a piece of plain, dark carpet, and you have an attractive grassy lawn. Put a doll house on It, add a few toy trees and a driveway made out of sand or salt — and you have a handsome country estate. Slip a few wads of crumpled paper under the carpet, smoothing it down neatly—and you have hills and valleys. A toy auto­mobile on the drive, a few toy cows or horses scattered about—and you have a complete rural scene.

It's as simple as that For table-top pictures, any kind of

camera can be used. It yours is a fixed-focus camera, or one that fo­cuses only to five or six feet, slip a ■portrait attschmept on the lens— this enables you to take close-ups. The camera should be placed on a firm support, and the lens closed down to a small ogenlnjj. This makes

both near and far objects sharper. Time exposures should be made, using either ordinary electric bulbs or, p re fe ra b ly , regular amateur photo bulbs.

Table-top pictures offer a wide choice of subject matter. You can take a couple of model airplanes, hang them on dark threads, and picture an aerial combat. Or, you can use toy soldiers and cannon from the dime store, and stage a war on the living-room floor. A woolly white blanket, or cotton bat­ting, provides snow for a winter scene. A sheet of black cardboard is a line background for a night scene. A mirror, laid out flat, makes a sheet of Ice. Brown sugar or salt can be used for a sandy beach. Tiny twigs suggest bare trees. Trans­parent wrapping material, properly crumpled, resembles stormy water. Place a ship model on a sheet of this—and you have a storm at sea.

Clearly, In "table-tops” there «:o marvelous chances for pfetniea. The sky Is the limit—and there's no end to the fun you can have. Try a few now, and you’ll sea
