Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 42, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 17 February 1912 — Her Personal Plate. [ARTICLE]

Her Personal Plate.

A young girl who has a great many valuable small belongings and never loses any of them, says that It is solely because of her plan of marking everything distinctly with her full name and town and country address. For her parasols and umbrellas she has a set of small silver plates of oblong shape and with screw equipped ends, which are readily detached from a handle and put upon another one. Her golf sticks, tennis racquets, hand luggage and the valuable collars which her dogs wear are marked tn the same manner and on all of her toilet articles she has plate markings which cannot be obliterated or easily wrenched off. The first cost of these plates was not very great, although all are of solid silver, and they were accumulated so gradually that the money was not missed from her allowance.
