Rifles that were used by soldiers in Russia, Germany, France, Switzerland, South Ameltc’n and hundreds of other spots in the world have become pdrta of Wilson's collection Armies that fought during the Civil War, Philippine war and Indian wars in this country years ago have contributed their part to his collection. One of the prizes of his collection Wilson said, is an I. C. Smith Shotgun double-barrolledi which Is insured for SBOO. There is a wicked looking high powered rifle which the col lector admits he used to advantage during the war in the Philippine islands. Alongside is a double-bar-relled shotgun taken by officers of this county from a car used either by bootleggers or bandits. A deer gun. double-barrelled, has one for rifle cartridges and the other for shotgun shells. Wilson has several pistols with

CABINET PAY I BOOST IS SEEN Ministers’ Salaries Found Too Low For Expenses of Holding Office By Martha Strayer, UP Special Correspondent Wash ngton, Jan. 7—(UP) More than 40 young girls from 35 states, are wards of Uncle Sam at a school I occupying one of Washington's . finest college properties. These girls wear short skirts, bobbed hair and look and act like ! any other girls of their age. But. all are deaf and some also are mutes. But for this institution. 1 j the Columbian Institution for thej j Deaf, subsidized by the govern-, ment, they could never get college ! I training. No other school in the I country gives college work to deaf | i boys and girls. Complicated Problem The problem ot training the girl | graduates of this school so they ■ ; can find jobs when they go out into I the world, has become complicated. Uncle Sam has been asked to ' provide additional instructors so I they can learn to be business worn-! en. Boys who are their fellow students have less difficulty making a l place for themselves, but the girls • are finding it increasingly hard. Some are trained to be teachers of the deaf. This heretofore has been the chief avenue of employ, ment for deaf college trained young women, but state deaf schools are more and more inclining to "hyarI ing people" as teachers. There are nearly 3,000 jobs of this kind scattered over the country, but only 400 are filled by deaf girls. Some of the girls take library work and are employed in large libraries and scientific institutions, where filing and classifying can oe done by them as well as by normal young women. Others learn expert dressmaking; some teach ini the winter and work in the altera-> t on departments of large stores in the summer. Ask Business Teachers The management of the school is asking the government to provide business teachers and business school equipment so the deaf girl students may be taught to run adding, calculating, mimeographing and other business machines. AT present typewriting instruction is available, but not a complete business training. The annual graduating class at this institution is very small -12 to 15 in all, including boys and girls—but teaching positions absorb only four or five of the girls! each year, and for the rest there is the problem of finding some ! means of becoming independent. They come from 35 states and are awarded free government ' scholarship after passing,special | examinations. They are 16 to 18 I years old when they enter, and I they spend five years getting a 1 college course which is taught nor- ! mal boys and girls in four years. o Old Weatner Proverb.

They are quite difficult to mate and have to he kept separate, for they fight and each other with little delay. When they are once mated, however, they take great care of their progeny. A llowet pot or hollow stone is found, which they clean spotlessly and in which they raise their family. They guard their eggs in alternate shifts, fan ning them with their tins. Just lie fore Imtclting, the female digs >t pit tn the sand or shingle and trans fers the young flsli to it. They are then a wriggling muss of black I Jelly.

DETROIT WOMEN BAND TO SEEK DRY REFORMS National Convention in Cleveland Will Discuss Necessity for Changes Detroit, Jan. 7 —(UP) — Believing that the “principle ot the Eighteenth Amendment and the Volstead Act is wrong” and prohibition haa not accomplished what was proinispd, a group of prominent Detroit Women have joined the Women’s Organization for National Prohibibition Reform. Mrs. Edwin S. Barbour, a member of the association; who is in charge of organization work here, outlined the club's views as follows "Temperance i« the real objectiv-a We do not believe temperance can be obtained through prohibition. We do not favor the return of the saloon but we believe that the speakeasy and the bootlegger exert an even worse Influence than did the saloon.

The Increase ot drtuking among our boys and g:rls is one of the phases of the intemperance thut nas come with prohibition. , 'We do not claim to have the aniwer to the problem but we hope to find the answer. "Our present task la to enlist the help of sane thinking women throughout the nation. We will hold a na'ional convention at Cleveland in April, and at that time we hope to be able to suggest a workable law as a substitute for the present prohibition act. "We will bring what Influence we have to bear upon the members of the legislatures and of congress to effect the reform.” o Minimum Motion A traveler from southern Call fornlu tells me of a Mexican gain bling gnme—familiar, perhaps, to many of you who may be Inter ested In such mutters—ln which each player places on the table a lump of sugar, and the lump of sugar on which a fly first alights Indicates the winner nf the stakes whatever they may he.
