A dlminutive screw worked loose in
one Of the big steel safes In the treas
ury department Of Cincinnati recently
and dropped into the mechanism CD.
Grating the combination. Thereafter
there was trouble. says the Popular
Science Monthly Magazine. The screw
took Its tumble on a Thursday night
and II was not until the following
Tuesday that the safe was opened. On
Friday morning. when 800 persons
were standing In line waiting for SOS.
600 In pay envelopes reposing behind
10 inches OF steel. the paymaster dis.
covered that something was wrong
He asked the people TO wait until he
found Jimmy Valentine.
After several men who admitted
that they knew uneanny things abOu,
opening safes were tested, the bls
safe was just as obdurate as ever, and
the line Of watchful whiting ones was
dismissed.
Friday night the safe was ordered
drilled open. A crew Of four men
worked from that time until Tuesday
morning before they undid the mis-.
chief caused by that one little screw
when It dropped out OF its allotted
place. The additional work cost the
city SIS, besides the patience Of 900
citizens.

JUVENILE CLUES GOOD WORK
Their Operation Can BE- Tremendously
Effective In Keeping the Country
Boy From the City.

An Illustration Of the great impor-
lance of the attitude Of parents toward
the work OF members Of the Boys Ag-
ricultural clubs, which have been or
ganized throughout the country by the
department Of agriculture. Is found by
specialists In cooperative dennonstra-
ton work In two cases reported from
the same state. The incidents are ac-
cepted as showing the value Of paren-
tai sympathy and confederation. par
ticulariy In the solution Of the problem
OF keeping the members Of the younger
generation on the farm.
In one case 1t was found that the
boy Of the family was helped and en-
couraged from the time he first Joined
a corn club. His father permitted the
use Of one Of the best acres on the
farm, gave him barnyafd manure, and
allowed the use Of the necessary
horses and machinery. The young club
member produced more than q hun
dred bushels Of corn or his single acre
the first year, and has been consistent
ly successful since. He has even
established reputation as q breeder
Of fine seed corn. During the four
years Of bis membership in the corn,
pig and other clubs. he has won more
than $500 in prizes, and. with his
profits, has acquired ownership Of
seven head Of purebred Duroc Jersey
hogs, six head Of well-bred cattle and
a horse. The home IL said to be ideal,
the father and son being reported as
'chummy az schoolboys." The boy
has no thought Of taking up life In the
city, but Is planning constructive
future on the farm.
In the second case the results have
been wholly different. The young son
Of this family Joined a kafir club. but
when the crop was gathered the grain
was placed In d general farm bin and
he received no value from II. The
following year he Joined a pig club,
and when his father called attention to
the lack Of feed. he hired himself 10
a neighboring farmer to secure funds.
The money which he earned was. how
ever, pocketed by the father. Wholly
discouraged, the young boy shortly
afterward ran away from home, and
is now working in city Of a neigh
boring state.
The incidents have been used by
the state demonstration agent Of the
state in which they occurred as the
text for an urgent appeal to all par
ents to encourage their children IN the
constructive work they are undertak.
Ing in the clubs. One factor which
win be helpful, II Is pointed out, is
permitting the young people TO receive
the full financial profits Of their In.
dustry.
