Frank M. Lynch Speaks
 of Wedding Rings

Orange blossom wedding rings are all the go, according to Frank M. Lynch, jeweler. The plain band ring is growing out of style for wedding ceremonies.
 For years and years the wide. un- adorned wedding ring was the conF Nentional style. A few years. ago q man working with the Traub Manu- featuring Company decided to insti- tute a little more choice into the mat ter of selecting a wedding ring. He contrived the narrow gold or platinum ring engraved with orange blossoms. It is this ring which is so popular in Birmingham today.
 Mir Lynch states that the diamond continues as the favorite engagement ring. Despite the high prices of dia- monds the beaux of Birmingham dig freely into their trousers in order that they may purchase "sparklersp for their brdes-to-be.
 Platinum is becoming next to gold in its popularity for jewelry. Platinum brooches, pins and buckles are all considered to be the latest in their line. Jewellers are now taking the old Tiff fany form of wedding rings and con- verting them into the orange blossom style in many instances.

Jaffe Iron and Metal Go.
 Will Buy Your Scrap

From the boys who make pocket money by hoarding rags, scraps or iron, bits of brass and other material, to the men who make livings by han ding the same stuff in carload lots, all find a profitable market for their products in the Jaffe Iron and Metal Company, whose yards and office are at 211 N. Twenty eighth street.
 The war has taught the Americans a lesson. That lesson is don't waste" Formerly scrap material was thrown away, and the rags and sacks routed, and the metal rusted. Now, rags are purchased by the pound and are woven into other cloth, or made into paper. Metal is melted and molded into other forms.
 This great business of retaining scrap material and putting them to work for mankind once more is car ried on by the Jaffe Iron and Metal Company. Their yards on North Twenty -ei ghth street are filled with piles of iron, steel, brass, copper, lead and other metals. which will be sorted, melted and once more molded into nails, structural shapes, ornamental furnishings, wire and put to thou sand uses again.

Mr.. ~RAfNoLDs APPROVES
Al~bunuerque. N. N

Albuquerque. N. NJ.
DR.. c. Z. Lukens, Supt. Children's
Home and Hospital, Albuquerque,
y. NJ.
Dear Doctor:
Replying 10 your letter Of recent
date in which you ask me to state
for the information of friends my
thought in regard to the necessity
Of the proposed extension Of our
work in the establishment of the
Children's Hospital, and the bene-
fits to the children Of the large popu-
lation which our hospital plans would
cover, | can say that in my mind
there can be no doubt Of such a
necessity and the great need of the
hospital is shown by the fact that
within a radius of nearly one thous-
aud miles each way from Albuquer-
que there is no institution meant
for the charitable relief of crippled
children, and the fact that there are
nearly three thousand crippled
children waiting in pain and distress
for the help which our hospital can
give, and which | know from our
past experience in the arr OF child
zen, will be lovingly and freely Civ
en-.
After a study Of our fourteen
years Of work for the relief of de-
pendent and orphaned children, and
he treatment of crippled children,
the efficiency Of our plan the eco
n1my Of the administration of Il
work, the manifest blessing which
has come to thousands of little
children. | feel that the gifts which
/ have made annually, and the
special gift which I have been able
20 make to this hospital fund are
among the wisest and most satisfy
ing of any money | have ever in
vested.
The cry Of a little child needing
food and home. and especially the
little crippled child in pain and ply
sically handicapped. is the most COM
pelling plea for help which can come
TO a practical business man, and the
investment we make now for the
hospital will be one that will belong
20 us forever, when the business or
fortunes we leave behind us are the
possessions of others , this invest
ment will be always ours, a sort of
perpetuation of ourselves, a most
practical way of making our eternity
happy in the reaching out our
hands TO lift up the unfortunate
crippled children for a thousand
years to come.
] feel that we strong men owe
this assistance to the helpless Of
our community, the same as in 9TH
er states. men of financial response
bility have provided such adequate
conveniences for their communities.
II gives me pleasure to recommend
this cause unstintedly to my friends
and | sincerely hope that every one
will help now in the Of his
powers.
Yours truly,
JOSHUA 8. RAYNOLDS.
