Fat, juicy frankfurters sell at the standard price of 10< and complete meals are served for as little as People who bring their own box lunches, of course, can cut their costs to almost nothing. The. Ford Exposition’s Garden Court is a Mecca for such as these. Here are comfortable beach tables and chairs, shaded by spreading elms and by spacious blue beach umbrellas. Ample patches of green lawn, splashing fountains, and occasional puffs of breeze help the Fairgoer keep cool. Each afternoon and evening the visitors — the Garden Court comfortably accommodates 800 at a time —may listen to free concerts by Ferde Grofe, eminent modern composer whose “Grand Canyon Suite” is known to everyone, and his New World Ensemble.

From left to right are Diana Gilberti, Mrs. Gilberti, Mrs. Mary Gariazzo, a neighbor, and Mrs. Cloe Frey, Gilberti’s sister. The Gilberti family comes from New Jersey. Their lunch basket, in case you’re interested, contained salami, delicious Italian ham, hardboiled eggs and big red peaches. Gilberti. • who has been looking for work since his employer's company folded up last March, said he- appreciated the many comforts, and the glorious concerts the Ford Exposition offers without any charge. And Mrs. Gariazzo echoed; "I could stay here always.” Visitors to the Fair may use rooms in private homes for as little as 11 a day. Lists of these rooms, compiled by Mayor LaGuardia, are free for the asking. And the Federation of Greater New York Churches has established five centers where children may be ‘‘checked" during daytime hours. For $1 a day they are cared for, entertained and fed.

J NEWS NOTES OF | | THE TELEPHONE • k O O The first telephone exchange in Springfield, 111., the capital of the state, was opened in 1879. Called to repair a telephone in Providense, R. 1., a repairman removed the bell box cover and found a mouse and a goodly supply of peanuts. At a recent stamp auction in London, a New York dealer used the transatlantic telephone to bid on a rare stamp and won, with a bid of SIO,OOO. The sister ship of the Queen Mary, now in process of construction, will be equipped with a comprehensive and thoroughly modern telephone system for the use of both the crew and the passengers. TRAFFIC VOLUME IS HEAVIER, SHOW • An increase of 6.13 percent in traffic moving over the Indiana State highway system during the first six months of 1939, as compared with the same period in 1938, was reported today by T. A. Dicus, chairman of the State Highway Commission. The increased traffic volume was determined by the six automatic counters installed by the Commission to record the number of vehicles using the state highway system in different parts of Indiana. The gain registered during the first half of 1939, is a reversal of 1938, when the traffic volume on state highways was 1.97 percent under 1937. The most northerly OCC camp was recently established in Mount McKinley national park in Alaska, with 200 boys enrolled.

H D E | L G P EtJW Everything from Soup tolNuta The stomach should digest two pounds of food daily. When you eat heavy, greasy, coarse or rich foods or when you are nervous, hurried or ehew poorly—your stomach often pours out too much fluid. Your food doesn't digest and • you have gas, heartbum. nausea, pain or sour stomach. You feel sour, sick and upset all over. Doctors say never take a laxative for stomach pain. It Is dangerous and foolish. It takes those little black tablets called Bell-ans for Indigestion to make the excess stomach fluids harmless, relieve distress in no time and put you back on your feet. Relief is so quick it Is amazing and one 25c package proves it. Ask for Bell-ans for Indigestion.
