spirit of love. Gentle Spring had un-

The little winged god of love stood tip

Detroit, Dec. 30. - After standing
guard over two employees for half an
hour, waiting for the bank manager
to arrive, two men today looted the
vault Of the Commonwealth Federal
Savings bank branch of $4,000.
The robbers followed Kenneth Ly-

bookkeeper, into the bank and forced
them to stand at their desks as if at
work, pending arrival of the manager.
When the latter arrived, he was forced
to open the vault and the men re-

Hardest Work Does

While there is no substitute for
work, it does not follow that those
who work the hardest accomplish the
most.
Waste of energy is often more dis

it interferes with progress and fire.

"The fellow with one idea gener-

will become obsolete or antiquated.
Theodore Roosevelt attributed his

Owing to his somewhat abrupt meth

Children's Society
Wins High Praise
From State Judges

Atlanta. Ga.-EXtension Of the
Georgia Childern's Home Society into

TODAY by Judge Garland Watkins
Judge of the Fulton county juvenile
court

support for the society, was one OF
number made public today from the
Juvenile court judges in all sections

who have cost the state thousands OF
dollars on court costs and prison up
keen started life under the same mis-
fortunes as are sending children into
the protection of the Georgia Chill
dren's Home societ ytoday," Judge
Watkins asserted. "The children
whom we fail to protect today are
going to give us the same kind of
trouble ten years fro mnow."
Judge Solon NJ. Davis, judge of the
Muscogee juvenile court, declared the
society should have the support of all
welfare and juvenile court workers
and the public in general
Judge j. A. Darsey, of the Spald-
ing juvenile court, thanked the soci-
ETY. for it's cooperation in helping the
children who came before his court

DAYTON, Ohio, April 2O--A new
model Frigidaire, selling at the lowest
nrice in the history of the business,
was announced this week by Frigld-
aire Corporation, subsidiary of Cen
eral Motors. An electric water cooler
and heavy duty compressor for
commercial and apartment house use
will also be placed on the market,
it was announced.
The new equipment was displayed
at the opening of the annual national
sales convention, attended by 2,50O
nicked dealers and statesmen, which
has lust been held. Alfred P. Sloan,
Jr., president of General Motors and
members of the corporations execu-
tive committee were present.

"The market for electric refrigera-
ton is expanding in geometric pro-
gression with every sale made" Mr..

would have these officials in each county under the

The Church Gets Rich

Time when the church mortgage lay like n
dead weight on the congregation. Every church
had one; every church pondered and planned for
ways and means to find little extra cash and get
out of debt
But the old order changes. Churches have taken
a tip from modern business.
Consider the advertising of series of gold bonds
issued by Cleveland church. The advertisement
reads that the church's gross income is $4,000 a
year; total operating expenses only $4,000!
Verify, here is something that would make old
time deacon harassed by everlasting debts, rub his
eyes in amazement.
