New life insurance purchased in IMS in this country amounted to $22.1 billion, bringing the total owned at ( the end of the year to U01 billion. ' the highest ever reported and more than the aggregate estimated to be owned in 1M0 throughout the world. The total is still less, however, than the annual national Income in recent years. United States families , bought about as much life insurance in 1948 as the total in force here in ' 1915. 1 The number oi policies owned in the UnKed States now exceed# 188 million, and the amount of insuri a nee per family averages nearly i 15.000, almost twice the 1924 level. livering milk just before dswn ha left a bottle of milk at a regular stop.

The only way Clenny was to outwit the croir was to carry a supply of cardboard cartons with him on the route. When the crow appeared. Clenny covered his mflk deliveries. Rumor in Hartford credited the crow with expensive and Bis criminating tastes. It is said that the crow drank only cream. When die bird found a bottle of homogenised milk, it took the cap off, but left the contents untouched. BUI Dunwiddie of the high school teaching s t s f f wasn't worried about the milk bottle trick. It was the windshield wiper on his car. The same crow stole the wiper blsde st every opportunity and hid it on top of Dunwiddie's porch. Bill had to climb up a ladder to retrieve it. His only solution was to hide the wiper himself. That still left the car without a windshield wiper. Children at St. Kilian's parochial school reported s n o t h e r trick of the troublesome crow. R flew st them when they were playing in the school yard. Snatched Clothes And the crow instched clothes pins from washlines. The bird didn't wait until the town's women hsd t'.eir clothes sll hung out He banged* around snstching pins as fast as they were put on--let the laundry fall where it may. Sly was the word tor Hartford's crow. It sst on s handy fence'railing, looking innocent with its beady eyes. But let the observer come too close--pff it wa> off. Then it alighted a little further away and gave the observer the come-on again. Great Mala Rttaras Carl 0a Parebam if Ctotfclaf LONDON. --The biggest relaxation since clothing rationing began in Britain nearly eight years sgo will enable a man or woman to buy a new suit or dress from now on without coupons. Harold Wilson, president ot the board ot trade, making this ante commons, ssid this with the freeing of footwear and other changes made last year, meant about half of the field , now was off the ration. The relaxation will apply to all woven wool cloth and garments made from it, such ss trousers, jackets, overcoats, skirts, dresses and children's wear.
