Miss Allen had a very lovely and interesting display of materials that students in her classes have made and many kits suitable for handiwork. Among the display was a very lovely serving tray which, upon q optioning we learned had been ma^ of a tomato can and some wood from an orange crate. Other useful articles had been made out of scraps usually thrown away. During the afternoon several individuals made belts, purses, bracelets, figurenes and rings.

He was glad when Mrs. Frisby (topped to talk. She was gossipy and friendly and liked a chat. "Glad to see you taking a rest at last. Dad. Goodness knows, it was time. I see you've been looking at the sketch for the new Memorial. Isn't it wonderful that a great artist like Mr. Bonelli's been engaged for the job. They say he's been asking for medals to copy on the figures of the wsr veterans and I'm hurrying right down with this one of Willie's. Dad stared at the sketch of the A^erwrial, thinking of what Mrs. Frisby had said. Something of value. Dad went over all his meager possessions and they weren't much. Just his clothes, neat and clean, the watch Mr. Twilinger had given him and that old coin. Dad was confuted by the noise and bustle when he entered Mr. Bonelli's studio, but Mr. Bonelli smiled at Dad and took him into a little office in the rear. "It's about a coin," said he humbly. and took out his lucky piece. "Where did you get it, and why do you want to sell it. Dad." It was easy to talk to Mr. Bonelli, and Dad explained about his home and Elsie.

A reporter spent a whole day trying to find ouUf Of course, he doesn't answer ^he phone hOnself when a little guy calls. When the reporter called, neither did Charley Ross, his press secretary, answer. Charley and Harry were graduated from high school in the same class. Sometime or another they must have harmonized on "Sweet Adeline" a few times in the washroom of the old school. Charley was out of town. His assistant, Eben Ayers, said he was sorry. "The president never sings In my presence," he said. "As a matter of fact, I have never even heard him play the piano." Ed Place, publicity man for the Society for the Preservation and Encouragement of Barber Shop Quartet Singing in America, Inc., said he didn't know, either. But he thinks the chief would Come somewhere between a tenor and a baritone. That would put the president in the lead to • quartet--where any president belongs.
