families. If, toward the close of life Of haru

gathered together enough to purchase modest
domicile for old age, they were doing well.
But times have changed. Any family that earns

advantages of home ownership. Just as automo-

And who pioneered the way to this desirable

delegates have come to Minneapolis for their 1876
convention. Formed to bring the small lender and
the small real estate borrower into contact, the
early building and loan associations forty fifty
years AFRO, were the first to the possibility OF
substituting small time payments for rent.
So today if solid miles of attractive and desirable
bungalows have replaced the endless rows OF bleak

The company has suffered, however. and is bring

leaders, to recover the $4,000 it claims to

Prehistoric Relics Dug From
 Under City

Cleveland, June 25 R,-The Cleveland Museum of Natural His tory is digging prehistoric records out of the earth with an electric shovel here.
 Since May 13, Prof. Jesse F. Hyde, curator Of geology, and Peter A. Bungart, collector and nrcparator. have supervised the operations of the efficient shovel out of whose nav comes beautifully preserved fishes, sharks of the primitive Cladoselache type. and other fossils and mementoes of important cpl sides in the Devonian history.
 The excavations will continue all summer. They are being made at Big Creek and West 12Sth street, which soon will be made inaccess- fble for explorations by the growth Of the city.
 The fossils are enclosed in smooth, almondshaped masses of rock three to five feet across, called concre- tions. They are harder than the shale, through which they are scat tered like raisins in a cake.
 A twelve-foot trunk was found, which had become water-logged, i'm bedded in the mud of Ohio's ancient sea, flattened and turned to q film of coal one-fourth inch thick.

 Elevating Pershing to the highest office in the Legion has been the ambition of influential members for several years, officials in national headquarters here declare.
