Thuringia, Dec. 23. (By Mail). Santa Claus' museum of toys in Sonneberg. one of the manufacturing, centers of Germany, is soon to have an addi tional wing or two to house the mass of playthings which have been crowded into the place for generations. The museum which contains hundrels of thousands of dolls and little men and women of most of the nations of the earth, is said to contain the largest collection of toys an.l novelties ever assembled under one roof. Everything in the toy line which has been manu factured by the Sonneberg toy in dustry from its very beginning. has been collected here for the benefit chiefly of foreign buyers Every boy, and most of the girls of Germany, have heard of Santa Claus' top shop here but few have ever been admitted. Children are barred, unl?ss accompanied by their parents. Sonneberg already has on dis play models in its museum for Christmas, 192. The Sonneberg toy industry keeps just about a year ahead of old St. Xick. For the holidays next year the little "tin" soldier of Sonneberg has just about disappeared. He is now to be of wood. Dolls, too, to a large extent, are to be of wood for 1924, and, in fact, almost everything formerly made of sheet Iroir and tin and clay and the like are being turned out now In Sonneberg of wood because of the difficulties in obtaining the other materials on account of unsettled conditions prevailing throughout the country. L Missing "Work Book" Dis covered in Dusty Attic Valued at $12,000 ,(By The Associated Press) 1 NEW YORK, Jan. 17. Dis covery of Benjamin1 Franklin's "work book" in a dusty attic in Mount Holly, X. J., announced on the eve ot the celebration today of "Poor Richard's" birthday, throws interesting light on : the early American's activities in both public and private life. For one thing, it shows that Fran Win print ed 1600 .copies of his protest to the English king against the "stamp act." The ledger missing for nearly a century, contains accounts of Franklin's print shop when he was in partnership with David Hall, Scottish prfnter, and covers eight years, ending in 1766. Col lectors consider it an important find and its value is placed at $12,000.

Poet's Mabel Mowat, Owned By Earl.Hanneman, Is Again to Fore Poet's Mabel Mowat 479804, owned by Earl Hanneman, Cor bett, Or., has just won her second medal of merit and silver medal by reason of her having completed the production and calving re quirements. Mabel started her third official test at 4 years, 5 months of age and in one year produced 13,900 pounds of milk and 869.90 pounds of butterfat. She carried calf 183 days during test. . As a junior 3 f'yearr old Mabel Mowat has a record of 872 pounds on which she stands third highest of the breed in that class and on which, she won her first medal of merit and: silver 'naeSat. In addition to her producing ability. Poet's Mabel Mowat"1 pos sesses the refined type of the show ring animal. Her face is dished and her placid, friendly eyes are set wide apart. There is no doubt bftt that her top-line is Just as straight as any cow that has ever trod the sawdust circle. A wide and deep barrel insures her con stitution and capacity, and an al most perfect udder describes her business end. Truly, Poet's Mabel Mowat is a cow of the highest caliber, and it seems highly probable that this cow will yet step into the 1,000 pound class.

(By Mail) Time was when the streets of Berlin were kept spotlessly clean; that was before the war when the municipality maintained a street cleaning force of 2400 men. Now this group of street cleaners num bers under 300, and the result is visible on all sides. Litter and rubbish abound. , During the war, when most, of the able-bodied ', men were at the front, civic pride continued among the citizens and several of. the principal streets were kept clean by volunteerss many of them wo men. But under present circum stances, with the mark jumping about and housewives compelled to stand in line every' day for hours for the mere necessities of the table, -civic pride has disap peared. There have been no vol unteers for street cleaning for many raonthjS, even though thou sands of men loaf about Berlin, i Nothing is: impossible.
