PRINCE OF WALES
 FALLS ONCE MORE
Sprail Wrist When Mount
 Slips on Muddy Ground

London, Jan. 8 R)-His liking for putting a spirited horse over risky jumps has caused the Prince of Wales to come another cropper
 Although he gave up steeplechas- ing, or point to point racing, at the solicitations of his family, the heir to the throne must have his hunt ing. and yesterday he suffered his first accident of the new year.
 While taking a difficult hedge near Great Dalby, Leicestershire one account says, the horse stumbl- cd and fell on the wet ground. The prince sprang clear, escaping with q badly sprained left wrist. True to custom he remounted the captured animal and continued to pursue the fox, although seemingly in pain. A minor casualty was the smashing of his wrist watch.
 Other members of the hunt also found the going rough, and three were thrown, including the Duchess of Westminster, one of the best horsewomen in England
 Horscmen remark that the prince takes unusual chances and that he is unhorsed no oftener than other daring riders. During the hunting season he follows the hounds three or four times a week and his record of spills is not unusual, they say
 He has had probably IS or 16 rid ing mishaps worth mentioning He suffered a broken collarbone on two occasions, the first in 1924 and the second year ago this month. f

 patric.
 | The annual drive for 1927 will be- gin March 2S and conclude April 4. The total amount asked will be S69.- 462.96. This is an increase of slightly less than s3,00O over last years total of S66.5SS.
 The budget shows an increase for some organizations and a decrease | in others.
 The Visiting Nurse association last year received S13,009, this year ask ed for $13,057.96 and was granted s13,057.96. The Boys club last year received s9,405, this year, asked for S10.S45, hoping to make payment on a mortgage and was granted S9.- S45. The Boy Scouts received s5,- 930 last year, this year asked and were granted s5,519. The Girl Scouts last year received s3.355. this year asked for and were granted $4,055. The increase in both these organiza- tions is due to changing executives and increased salaries.
 The Tuberculosis Relief associa- ton last year was given $5,440. This year only S5.055 was asked because of the increased sale of Christmas seals. The request was granted.
 The Junior Achievement organiza- tion last year received S4,S00. This year $4,950 was asked, $350 being for an anticipated rent. It is not sure that this rent will be necessary so S4,600 was granted.
 The Day Nursery received s4,700 last year and asked and was granted the same amount this year. Although Ensign Carl Frederickson has been granted an increase in salary. the Salvation Army managed to cut eX- penses. Last year the army re- ceived s4,533. This year s4,491 was asked and granted.
 The largest increase was granted the Welfare Association which has increased its budget s1,000, from s4S00 of last year to s5,S00 this year. The Fresh Air camp which re- ceived s7,636 last year, asked and was granted sS,340 this year.
 Last years total was s66,5SS. This year s70,S12.96 was asked and s69,463.96 granted.
 The committee investigating the suggestion that the Polish orphanage be included in the Community Chest reported that it has not yet conclud- ed it's investigation.
 A financial report filed by Treas urer Leon A. Sprague showed that before, during and since the last drive s55,51S.55 has been received. There has been received during the year S15 on 1921 pledges, S2 on 1923 pledges and $S56 on 1925 pledges.
 Expenditures include s45,954 to the organizations and s2,639.90 for expenses of the parent organization. There is needed to finish the re- maining quarter of the year $13,000, with only SS,056.99 on hand. This means that about s5,000 on 1926 pledges must come in within the next two or three months to enable the organizations to complete their pres ent program.

Boston, Jan. s [Pt-The old Fitch burg depot here, which in four score years acquired historical significance as the hall where Jenny Lind sang and as terminal of the original Hoo- sac Tunnel railroad route, is to dis appear with it's castle towers and give way to modern concrete struc- ture to house both shops and a gar age.
