zinc-Lined Boxes
For Ammunition Are
Deemed SuperfluOus

Correspondence of the Associated Press)
PARIS, March 1.-The parliamentary
committee on economy. which has been
investigating ways and means of saving
money In the public service. teils in its
--latest report how a member Of the com
mittee was one day struck by the fact
that all the ammunition sent TO the front
was packed in zinc-llned boxes. The at
tention of NJ. Thomas. minister of muni-
tions. was called to the fact. and ne sug-
gested that. inquiries should be made at
the front. II the zinc was superffuous, It
would be suppressed
Two members Of the committee accord
ing,y followed a hox of cartridges from
Vincennes up to the front trenches, but
failed 10 find out where the zinc. was
necessary They consulted everybody en-
route. from generals and colonels down to
pii ate, but without result. At last the
general commanding the Fifth army
solved the puzzle-the zinc was used. he
sai;. merely because It had been used
for tile last sixty years.
The committee communicated this in
formation to Minister Thomas. who at
once issued instructions that no more
zinc-lining was to be put into ammuni-
tion boxes The saving will amount to
s. 10000 a year.

Dear Mr.. kimsey:
! write to express something of the
pleasure it gave me to visit the Glynn
county community school in company
with President Wood. While the work
has just begun il promises much. not
only for your own system but as an
example to others as wcll. The plan
projected by The school authorities
seems TO ne admirable and in but few
instances like it has much been tired
in tho state or the south Some OF the
features which render it OF marked
value are as follows:
