the delivery of 15,0(10,0011 hand
grenadea to the TreaHory Depart
ment for conversion into savings
banks fo stimulate thrift and the
sales of War Savings Stamps, ac
cording to a telegram received by
C. A. Farnsworth, associate director
of the War Loan Organization of
the Twelfth Federal Reserve Dis
trict. A contract which, the Treas
ury Department had with the War
Department was cancelled.
The grenades, filled with TNT,
were ready for shipment to Ameri
can Expeditionary Forces when the
armistice was signed. The plan of
the Treasury trcpartment was to
convert these gtenades into savings
bunks by removing the explosive
and to offer them as souvenirs of
the wur to purchasers of War Sav-'
Ings Stamps find Treasury Savings
Certificates of the 1 f I series. The
plan met with instantaneous suc
cess throughout the country, mil
lions of tnern having been ordered.
They were to I awarded thrAugh
banks snrt trust companies which
in the Twelfth Federal ltcsore Dis
trict alone ordered nearly mil, 000
of them. These orders will all have
lo lie cancelled.
"To say that 1 am disappointed Is
putting If lightly." said Karnswnrlh
"The demand for the grenades wa
tremendous, which proved thst they
weie an excellent means of stimulat
ing the liahlt of snvlng and invest
ment In government securities.
Moreover, they were the best pos
sible souvenirs of the wsr. How

The Scberinrj Candle
By Walt Mason.
When you have n bunch of
boodle in the bank just up the
pike, you'll stand up for Yankee
Doodlo, law and order and the
like. Then no creed of devasta
tion, such as Russian outlaws
shriek, will recoive your con
firmation you'll denounce il like
a streak. When a man Is broke,
and busted, with no package, laid
away, he Is evermore disgusted,
with tho laws we all obey. He
would see our courts all leveled',
and the Judges on the rack, and
the plutocrats bedeviled till they
gave up nil their stack. He
would see till things, upended,
Justice he would render mule;
then his ch&ncns would be splen
did to accumulate some loot. I
have seen some agitators atirring
up the peopla's souls, and they all
wore cast-off gaiters and their
pants were full of holes And
they said their chains were clnvk
iiiif, as they damned the pluto
crat: If they'd only do some
banking thev would soon get over
that. I have heard the spielers
thriftless putting ua their weary
song; I have heard the w"ak and
shiftless saying everything is
wrong. Rut the man who saves
his money thinks the Kiissian
creed absurd, and bo 'hinks It
beastly funny that - i-ny yawps

BUYING WISHES
"The man wbo buys only what he
needs, and when be needs II. would
neither sustain 'marked down sale'
nor a marked up one He would apply
the law of demand according lo Its ul
timate power, and tbe level of supply
and demand wo.ild soouer be reached.
It follows that as long as people keep
on paying high prices, because thy

EARLY BUILDING FOR SUCCESS
Youth's Wise Employment of Leisure
Hour Means Everything In Hi
After Life.
Tf the young man could only as
Blmilate very early In his life the fact
that merely to live and eut and dt-Lnlt
and .sleep, and then die, Is not enous.
but that he must rob himself of mnij
of the pleasures usually taken up 'j
young men If he means to make hi I
life of the highest possible use to th ;
world, he would set bis foot ou the
pathway to accomplish something
worth while.
There Is no harm In billiards or
pool or In dancing, baseball or card
plnylng, or any one of the scores of
different diversions and recreaflons
open to young men. The natural In
clination usually Is to devote a large
part of the leisure hours of young man
hood to such pleasures. But the youth
who Is really earnest In his ambition
to do something worth while will dis
cipline himself to resist such tempta
tions during his early, formative years,
for the whole fate of a man is largely
determined by how he utilizes his plas
tic years. He may be restricted by
circumstances, by environment, hy
family ties In his selection of his dally
work, but every young man. particu
larly nowadays, has many hours that
he can call his own, and It Is how he
chooses to use these hours that
counts most and tells most. Forbes

SOMETHING MORE THAN PLAY
Crippled Soldier Pleasantly Surprised
at Result of Work at Which He
Amused Himself.
How a ring got a wounded soldier
a new' occupation in life is told hy
the federal hoard for vocational edu
cation, which Is helping the linndi
enpped men of the army, navy and ma
rine corps get back into the work-a-dny
world.
A veteran of Hellcau wood called
upon the board. I lis left leg gone, he
appeared listless and wiihiiut hope.
He sat talking to the udvlssV-, now and
then slowly turning a ring on his
finger. The adviser, to get the man's
conlldence, asked to see the ring.
The limn suddenly became animated.
"I made Hint," he said. "Hammered
It out of sliver myself, nnd engraved
those figures on the outside. Nothing
but some playing nf mine," he added.
The adviser looked at the ring, noted
the engraving, and snld :

"Doing thisr said the soldier, fin
gering his ring. "Say, this ain't work
It's Just play."
"Let's have a try at It," replied the
adviser.
The federal board sent the man to
learn engraving, and in a few months
he qualified for a good job in a Jew
elry store.
Chinese College Girls.
The most picturesque school In Nan
king Is flinling college, a recently
opened Institution, operated by five
boards, presided over by a faculty of
eight and Including 18 girls. As this
is only the second year of operation,
18 Is a goodly number.. Last year
there were hardly enough girls to go
around. The college is housed for
the present in a charming bid "gung
gwnn" or official residence belonging
to the estate of LI Hung Chang, and
once occupied by one of his relatives.
For Chinese women to come Into such
an Inheritance, even by renting It, Is
enough to make anyone enthusiastic.
Only two years of college work are
done at rresent, but a year's work is
being added over autumn, so that it
will soon tax the eight teachers to
keep the class work up to the high
standard that has been decided upon.

' Rigorous Mourning.
"Germany's week of mourning over
the harshness of our peace terms was
rigorously observed nit," said Major
Frederick Palmer, the famous war cor
respondent. "There's a story about the week of
mourning from Berlin. A Berlinese
assistant theater manager said to the
manager:
"'Is our burlesque going to observe
the week of mourning, boss?'
" 'Rigorously, sir, rigorously,' the
boss replied.
" 'Close down is that the idea?' snld
the assistant.
"'Close down nothing!' said the
boss. ' 'We'll put nil the chorus girls
in blnck silk stockings.' "
To Keep Castaways Dry.
Louis O. Anderson has invented a
"storm cover" for boats which, when
adjusted, covers both bont and rower
so completely that waves and rain will
roll off it ns water rolls off a duck's
back. The suit, which Includes a
headpiece, is made full at its juncture
with the rubberized cover, says the
Popular Science Monthly, so that the
oarsman may try to paddle with one
of the oars while sitting In the stern
with the tail spread out behind him.
His oilier oar makes a buckbone for
the cover.
