In New England, a reduction of 81 In
the number of failures from the first half
of 1918 contrasted with an expansion of
more than s1.6Oo,Cco in the amount OF in
debtedness involved. Only in Maine, in
which there was an increase of 81. were
there more defaults than last year, the
best showing in this connection being
made by Massachusetts,. where 50 fewer
concerns were forced to suspend. The
next best exhibit was made by Connecti-

Rhode Island, but the decreases in New

firms that Waycross, Ca. is good
place to change trains, but a mighty
poor place to change a dollar, even
in Uncle Sans postoffice. Going to
Live Oak, Fla, the other day for a
few days quail shooting, Dr. Ridley
changed trains in Waycross in min
ute, but it took him much time and
considerable conversation to change
q dollar.
He rendered q dollar bill In eX-
change for a 25-cent book of stamps,
and the clerk told him ned have to
out and get his money changed and
come back, because the postofiice had
just changed hands, and the retiring
postmaster didn't leave a single soli-
tary nickel in the money drawers.
After arguing the case thoroughly
and thrashing out all the fine points
OF the law and constitutional rights,
Dr. Ridley convinced the clerk that he
would not have to go out and get his
own change, and the rs cents was
made up among the Office clerks
