 The money will go towards Upsala college, an educational Institution in Wentworth, New Jersey, which has existed for more than 30 years and maintained by the Swedish Lutheran churches in the New England and New York conferences.
 Since the swar the enrolment of this college has increased so rapidly that it has been impossible to take care of many students.

GASOLINE TAX NETS
 CLOSE ID S7O0,000
Motor Vehicle Commissioenr's
 First Yearly Report Shows

The commissioner of motor vehi- cles, in addition to his duties with reference to registration of motor vehicles, investigation of accidents and general supervision of all mat ters pertaining to motor vehicles, in- cluding airplanes. executes the law passed at the last session of the leg islature providing tax of one cent a gallon on all gasoline used in oper- ating motor vehicles.
 When 1t is noted that dhring the first year this law was i'll effect, September 1, 1921, to August 31. 1922, no less than 6s,924,753 gallons were used by motorists. and the tax collected amounted to $sSs,247.53. it will be seen that this law added very considerably to the other many duties of that official.
 Inspection Of Stations.
 The law passed in 1921 provides that no station or place of~business for a wholesale or retail selling of gasoline shall be established or maintained unless the owner shall have certificate from the com missioner of motor vehicles stating that in his opinicn the location of such station is s,ich that public safety is not imperiled thereby.
 Commissioner Stoeckel established the policy that all gasoline filling of the law, which were in active operation with the Approval of local safety officials, would be certified upon the basis of evidence. The de- pArtmert. in permitting new locations carefully serutipizes all the circum- stances, -Aefore, Issuing such a. cer-1 tificate.
 Paid By Wholesalers.
 The tax is collected from the wholesalers, who report all sales to the inspectors Of the department, l These inspectors check up on gaso- line delivered for industrial plir- poses and for use in farm tractors, | whenever there is any suspicion that ! any part of the non-taxed gasoline is being used in motor vehicles. } 4 report of the receipts for the gasoline taxes for the first year, shows very clearly which months of the year the motor travel is heaviest. There are no such figures for pre- ceding years, which would form the basis of comparison. The report for this first year shows, however, that nearly one-third more gasoline was used in motor vehicles in August this year than September of last year, which might be taken as an indica- tion of the rate or increase in the use of motor vehicles in this state.

If you notice all the grown-up women carrying dolls, don't fear they have entered upon their second child hood---they are merely carrying the very latest styles in handbags.
 Some of these doll bags exploit the latest Paris creations others feature a native costume. as the one in the photograph, but all are elaborately lined and beautifully finished and swing from the wrist on ribbon.
 They are fastened with snaps neat. ly concealed so that it takes an ex- pert to find the opening. They prob ably will be the despair of pick pockets.
