 DonncIly Opposes Airport
 John Donnelly, one of the may orally candidates at the primaries, is very much opposed to the pur- chase of an airport by the city. In a letter made public Mr, Donnelly expressed his thoughts very en- phatically saying that he did not think that Bristol needed an airport at the present time. He wrote: "Of course. every forward looking in- divi1ual realizes that some day Bristol may need such a thing, but now is not the acceptable time" The proposal certainly is the cause of many arguments.

THE NEW MONEY.

Some outside banks and busi- ness houses are distributing ;lips of paper showing the ex- act size of the new paper mon- ey that will be issued about July 1. These bills, which are Q be six and 5-16 inches by TWO and 11-16 inches, will ;eem surprisingly small to people when they first get them. A roll of bills will look mall to those accustomed to guch affluency when concen- trated in these little pieces of paper.
 But there is no cause for oessimism, for the new money will go just as far. The small 1T amount of fine paper re- luired to make those bills will ave the government quite a it of money.

WHY BLAME THE CAT?

In the good old days when grandma and grandpa were young it was considered an ill., omen to have a black cat cross ones path. Doubtless many of the dear old folk would ex- claim, T told you so," if they heard the story of John Coffey, reported. from Muskogee, Ok lahoma.
 Apparently the black cat of this tale crossed Farmer Cof- fey's path at a very inoppor- tune moment. The farmer, in attempting to light his pipe, broke the match, which dropped into a kerosene can. An unfortunate accident for the cat. The explosion that came instantaneously ignited the poor feline and it scam- pered frantically for the barn, where it was consumed by flames along with the building and the hay stored in it.
 "A black cat-I told you so? " ives, but why blame it on the cat? Why have an op- en can of kerosene standing about and why light a match near such a can? Common sense dictates that all inflam- mable and explosive liquids should be kept in tightly closed metal containers and in. a safe place. The black cat from his happy hunting grounds knows they are dan-i gerous, and the National Board of Fire Underwriters supplies figures showing that. the annual fire loss from care less handling of petroleumi and it's products was over $14,-, OOO,O0O in 1926.-Exchange.

DIVIDE MINING SHARES
 INTO THREE GROUPS

Mining stocks may be divided roughly into three classes, says the Engineering and Mining Journal. In the lowest group would be placed more or less fraudulent promotions which no one should buy for their present or prospective inher- ent value. In the second class would be included the vast majority of speculative mining stocks of companies that have a chance to make good in 8 big way; most of them fail ut terly.
 Such stocks are often worth buying, but they are a fit spec ulation for only a small part of any ones funds and for those who know the chances they are taking and can af- ford it. In the third group are the established and well-man- aged mines, most of which have a dividend record and as- sured ore reserves. There is little if any more risk in buy ing these than in buying in- dustrial stocks.

PASSENGERS BARRED
ON MILITARY PLANES

MEXICO CITY, March 3.-Mili-
tary aviators have been forbidden
to carry civilian passengers in the
planes, under orders of the MeXi-
can Ministry Of War and Marine.
The discovery vas made in the ac-
counting department Of the minis
try that the increased volume Of
bills for gasoline and oil consumed
by the Army Air Force was due to
the practice Of the soldier pilots
in taking friends and relatives for
trips and on voyages from n city
to another.
This regulation, the ministry
points out. applies to all civilians.
Even government officials who are
not directly connected with the
army must use other planes If they
desire to travel by air. All army
pilots who violate this regulation
will be severely disciplined, the
ministry warns.
