the most odd. A woman went into q
shop and, declaring camera she had
bought was no good, demanded that
her money be refunded The prints
she showed the clerk were OF large
and distorted face of girl Puzzled.
the clerk asked her how she took the
photographs. She had held the camera
In both hands, pointed upward, and
taken snaps OF her own face.

Special Discount Rate
On Treasury Bills Ends

Necessary as Investment
Market Broadens

Elimination of the preferential of u
of per cent on advances to member
banks against United States Treasury
certificates of indebtedness as COM
pared with the rate on advances against
Liberty bonds and Victory notes was
announced yesterday by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York. This ac~
tion has been taken as result of the
growing popularity of certificates of
indebtedness i for investment by indi-
viduals and corporations, which has
broadened the market and made no
longer lecessary artificial support in
the form of q special rate of discount,
ttThe abandonment of the preferen-
tial on the rate for advances against
Treasury certificates over that which
prevails for advances against Liberty
