Little Miss Pauline Henkel, thirteen years old, of 107 West Forty-forth street, New York city. is the champion juvenile bond seller of the United States. Of course. her bond selling has been done for Uncle sam. In each of the four campaigns for Lib crty Loans she made e record, but in the fourth, when she sold S1, 1,250,000 worth of securities, she made the rec ord almost unassailable.
 Now, that her work for the nation may have permanent value and that a whole army of young folk may be inspired to regard work for their country as their greatest satisfaction. she has founded an organization known as the Junior United States Auxiliary The members of the auxiliary mean to perpetuate the spirit of patriotism, teach the excel lence of American ideals, organize war savings societies, extend com forts to the wounded and to such soldiers who are detained in camps awaiting demohilization, and other wise assist the Government

WHERE TO KEEP
 LIBERTY BONDS
45O Banking Concerns in This District Will Hold Them for
 You in Security.

To show the public how Liberty Bonds may be safely kept is the pur- pose of a booklet now being distrib- uted by the Government Loan Organi- zatfon of the Second Federal Reserve District It is intended for the people who have no safe deposit boxes and who have wondered where else they could keep them.
 The booklet, called Safe Keeping of Liberty Bonds" contains a list of 45O banks, trust companies and safe deposit companies in the Second Fed eral Reserve District that have agreed to accept Liberty Bonds for safe keep ing. The amount accepted Is not to exceed $500 from each individual de- positor.
 Most of these institutions have agreed to take care of the bonds with out fees. The others charge only a small amount, much less than the cost of a safe deposit box. All assure ab- solute safety for the bonds.
 The banks are listed in the booklet under subdivisions of the Federal Re
  York City are in one group; those In New York State outside of the city in another; the banks in the twelve northern counties of New Jersey in a third, and the banks in Fairfield COun- ty, Connecticut, in a fourth. Each list is made up alphabetically by towns so that the proper bank can be found con- veniently.
 The 45O institutions that have pa. triOtically agreed to offer the use of their safe deposit valuts to small hold CTS of Liberty Bonds are about one third of the total number of such in- stitutions in the Second Federal Re serve District This number repre- sents an increase of 29O over the mum Der that had previously agreed to act as Repositories for Liberty Bonds

SAVINGS BANKS WILL LEND
 CASH ON LIBERTY BONDS

A ruling made by George I. Skinner, State Superintendent of Banks, that savings banks in New York State may lend money to depositors on notes SC cured by Liberty Bonds Is going to have a decided influence upon the sue cess of the next Liberty Loan. This ruling affords the savings banks the opportunity of lending money for Lib erty Loan subscriptions.
 NJ w. Harrison, secretary of the Savings Bank section of the American Bankers Association, recently wired to Superintendent Skinner to ask whether this practice would be permit ted. MT. Skinner's reply was as fol- lows:
 Paragraph 4, subdivision eight, section 239 of the Banking Law au- thorizes savings banks to make de- mand loans on promisory notes speci- fled secured by Liberty Bonds up to ninety percentum of the cash market value thereof"

from George Saunders of Kentucky
suggesting that Clay Of Alabama and

BY Lincoln to take the matter up, but
the negotiations came to nothing, as
the Confederate delegates did not

Use for Surplus Munitions.

An interesting suggestion has been
made by a prominent Swiss mcteorol-
ogist and physicist, NJ. de Quervain Of
Zurich, to the effect that the vast
stores of munitions collected in the bel
ligerent countries during the last four
years be utilized to advance the cause
OF science instead of being merely fir
ed off to make a Roman holiday, or
else sunk In deep waters to avoid the
latent dangers which reside in them.
BY d%etoning these explosives in defln-
tie quantities. at definite places, and
at definite times whose dates are an
nounced in advance, a possibility
would be presented for the solution of
many interesting problems in physics
and m%eteorology. The project might
advantageously be carried out in this
country.
