league has the jump on the Coast

bar. At the same time the new
model is not cumbersome, but on the
contrary is quite attractive.

Rockefeller Donates That Sum to
Schools.

Thirty-two million dollars worth of
income bearing securities was the gift
of John d. Rockefeller, through his
son, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., an
nounced to the general education
board when it assembled for spec
ial meeting in New York recently. The
gift, which is the largest single sum
every handed out for such purposes,
will be used for general educational
purposes throughout the country. Mr..
Rockefeller has previously given the
board 100000 for the same work.
Worldwide will be the appreciation
of the spirit which led John D. Rock
efeller to give in one donation 1922
000,0 to the cause of education in
the United States. 1t is truly said
that never in history has any man
given at one time so large a sum for
social and philanthropic purposes. The
liberality of Andrew Carnegie, great
as it has bcen is unmarked by any
thing that compares with this gift by
Rockefeller and when it is borne in
mind that the $32 100000 by no means

$62,000,000 given for educational pur-
poses. Rockefeller has, moreover,
been liberal at one time or another in
donations to various colleges and uni
versities and for other philanthropic
objects. 1t might not be wide of the
mark to say that an aggregate of $75.-
100000 out of his fortune has been
