Patients Rescued in Hospital Fire.

Hattiesburg, Miss, Nov. 10.-Fire
early today destroyed a large por-
tion of the roof on the South Missis-
sippi Infirmary, hospital operated
by DIR. w. w. Crawford of this city,
and created sensation here when
all the patients were carried out of
the building hastily and taken to
neighboring homes to be kept tenn
porarily until necessary repairs to
the hospital could be made.
The innrmary was filed with
patients. When the alarm was
sounded neighbors fiocked into the
building and aided in the rescue
work. One patient was on the oper-
ating table. ready for the anesthetie
and had to be carried out. as the
water from the FIRE hoses already was
flooding the building.
The water damage Is probably
more serious than that Of the flames.
1t was thought that the fire was
caused by a defective fiue in the
main chimney from the heating sys-
tenn.

WAR STAMP BUYERS
WILL CASH IN SOON
Can Get Money Now if Wanted :
New Investment Offered by the
Government.

Washington, D. c. - War Savings
Stamps of the series of 1913 become
due and payable on January 1923.
The people who bought these stamps
will receive their full face value up
on redemption and will find that the
money they saved five years ago has
earned every year about four per
cent compounded interest. In order
to afford holders of war savings
stamps an opportunity to continue
their investment in safe govern
ment security the Treasury Depart
ment is offering an exchange of War
Savings Stamps for Treasury Certi-
ficates. The certificates are issued in
denominations of s25, 500 and ST.
900, maturity value, and sold for
$20.50, $S2 and $500, respectively.
Holders of War Savings Stamps can
get them at these prices upon appli-
cation through their own banks or
their post offices. Exchanges will
be made as of January 1, 1923, upon
applications made between Novem
Der Is, 1922 and January Is, 1928.
Immediate payment will be made in
cash of any difference due the hold
er of War Savings Stamps If he takes
the largest possible amount Of Treas
ury Savings Certificates on the ex-
change.
The growing inclination. of the
people to save and their desire to
find safe reinvestment for their
money leads Treasury officials to be-
lieve that large part of the six
hundred million dollars in War Saw
ings Stamps soon to become due will
be exchanged for Treasury Savings
Certificates.

MOTOR VEHICLE RULING

Assemblyman John B. Stratton, of
Gloucester County, has called the at
tentiOn of the Times to the new ruling
from the Commissioner of Motor We
hicles, in reference to the classification
of automobiles. When licenses were
issued the latter part of December
any car which had a commercial body
was Immediately classified as a COM
mercial car. The new ruling makes
some important reservations and in
terpretations to the law and is as fol-
lows:
I'm registering a vehicle you should
disregard the type of body and reg
lister the same as of the purpose for
which it is used. Where an applicant
has a a in which he makes a bust
ness of carting any merchandise or
produce to market for commercial pur-
poses, he should be required to take
out a commercial registration. Where
an applicant has a car which he uses
for touring purposes and does not
make a practice of carting produce
or merchandise for commercial pur-
poses, but does use same occasionally
for carting produce or merchandise
for personal purposes, you should re-
quire them to take out passenger reg
istration.
There are many persons in this
part of the state to which such a rul-
ing applies. If the owner has been
improperly registered, he may make
application to the Commissioner for
the proper registration, and If a lower
fee be charged, he will be refunded
any excess money that he has paid

WILDWOOD BOY SCOUT EXECU'
TIVE OFFICERS WILL HOLD
BUSINESS MEETING

The wildwood Boy Scout executive
officers will hold a business meetlne
March 18th, at s P. NJ, in the Boy
Scout Hut at the Pennsylvania and
Reading stations. Everyone is In
vited to attend this meeting as a COM
nlete statement of the executive OIL
GERS and seoutmaster will be made.
This organization, while composed
Iof bows. is not a boys organization, but
is controlled by the biggest men the
world over. A number of ex-presl-
dents of the United States are scout
executives; many bankers and U. S.
officials are scouts.
Frank L. King, the real estate
broker, of wildwood, is the organizer
and the executive chairman in Wild
wood. with eleven years of residence
in wildwood. His well-known hust-
ling qualities need no further intro
duction.
Rev. Irwin Fisher, of the Baptist
Church, is vice-chairman. Mr.. Fisher
is very active and every boy loves to
work with him. He has in his church
an orchestra made up of Boy Scouts
and he is very proud of them and their
good work and invites all to come and
enjoy their fine music.
Senator William H. Bright is the
Scout secretary. He has given much.
of his time and money to make the
movement a success. Last July he
arranged with the Scout executive
chairman, and on the 18th OF that
month, while all were asleep in Wild
wood, packed Al boys into automobiles
and they were off to Branchville, $50
miles away, going from sea level to
the highest mountains of New Jersey,
the trip taking two days each way
and ten days in camp. Not an injured
or sick boy to bring home; all we'll
and happy and looking forward to this
summers trip which will Guido the
initial jaunt.
Mark B. Reeves, the architect and
builder, is the treasurer. Mr.. Reeves
has devoted much of his time and
given his money. 1t was under his
supervision that the beautiful Hut at
the station was built. Nowhere in the
State of New Jersey have Boy Scouts
such a fine place in which to meet and
call their own. There are a number
of other men who have given of their
time in various ways and all feel
proud in doing their part.
The work merits greater cooper
alton on the part of the parents of the
boys, and it is hoped that all will
out to this meeting, at which
time an explanation will be given of
each step from the organizing to the
present time. 1t is a duty you W the
boys, the town and yourself to take
part in this organization, and it will
be with the greatest of pride to look
at the boys, 200 or 300 strong, parad-
ing our streets, and in Philadelphia,
Washington and many other places,
and you can say 81 did my bit" to1
make it the success in every campaign
that ever concerned Wildwood. We
always went over the top, and here is
going over if you will help.

Chairman of Scout Executives
of Wildwood.

INTERN NATIONAL COMPANY
SECURES GERMAN SHIPYARD

Danzig, Dec 1.-The great ship
building works and railway shops at
Danzig, formerly belonging to the
German government, have been turn
ed over to an international company
under a fifty year concession.
This was the expedient determined
upon by the English, French and Ital-
ian commission appointed by the
Council of Ambassadors III Paris to
settle the contention between the
government of Poland and the NUM-
cipality of Danezig as to who should
have these works. Thirty per cent.
of the shares of the international COM
pany has been taken by Cravens Com
pany, of England; thirty per cent. by
Ia group of Dantzig and Warsaw
banks. The board consists of three
Englishmen, three Frenchmen, two
Poles and two citizens of Dantzig.
The first business of the new COM
pany will be the assembling of 1000
freight cars recently imported by Po-
land from America.
