that will be paid to the person or group
presenting plan whereby war will be
made at least improbable. has been
deposited with the Girard Trust Co.,
Edward w. Box, donor Of the award,
announced today.
Pointing out that President Harding
had said there should be no more war,
Mr.. Box said the award "is the search
for an idea to show that we mean
what we say"
my idea," he continued, "singly and
solely is to search the American mind
for an idea whereby the American peo-
pie can do their part with the other
nations to avert another war; an idea
born not of politics or of partisanship.
but Of the straight-thinking, ideal-lov-
ing and fair-minded American. The idea
may be something entirely new. or 1t
may take the form Of notifications OF
the covenant of the League of Nations.
We have got to live in friendly world
and we are too important nation and
too direct a part of the world to insist
upon our former policy of isolation.
We can no longer stand aloof while the
rest of the world is suffering from
present problems or in danger of fu-
ture wars. We must decidedly do our
share. That duty we cannot shtrk And
I believe, in my heart, that someone,
somewhere in America, has that idea
ard will point the way. That idea will
be cheap at 100000"

Uses Paint Remover

It Is true that summer has many
peculiar effects upon different people
but it is not often that it moves the
modern girl to apply paint remover
to her face. A Gardiner girl was just
home from school and had contracted
a head ache from the severe heat OF
the day. Thinking to refresh herself
by bathing her forehead she picked
up a bottle marked witch hazel and
quickly moistened her face. When
she was nearly suffocated by the .odor
OF turpentine she fastened to wash
her face, this time with water and
picked up the bottle to examine the
label. Upon examination she found
that the words witch hazel had been
crossed out and paint remover writ
ten in their stead.
