year.
The call upon the campaign I'M
derwriters was understood TO have
been made by Mr.. Raskob on his
initiative and to have caused con-
sternation among some of the guar
antors who had signed the pledges
As a matter Of form.
The Times said Mr.. Raskob vas
understood to have incurred addi-
tional expenditures at the last mo-
ment without consulting his COL
leagues and some Of the guarantors
we're said to have expressed consid-
erable resentment at being called
upon TO make good a deficit which
resulted from exceeding the budget.
The largest contributors to the
fund to reduce the deficit were Mr..
Rsskob. William T. Kenny and
Lieut.. Gov. Herbert n. Lehman Of
New York. each OF whom was said
10 have contributed Sf50.000 in adj
dition to large sums given during
the campaign.

Cretonne Bureau

ooh, how cute!" exclaimed the girls as they
filed into the meeting of the Hobby Club On
the table they saw the prettiest little miniature
bureau made out of lowered cretonne. There
were also Some large empty match boxes, paste
and brushes, few tiny mirrors and some brass
curtain rings on the table,
Smilingly Miss Brown picked up the bureau.
Eyes, girls, this lovely little novelty which will
hold trinkets is simply made out of kitchen
match boxes and scraps of material" Miss
Brown pulled open the small drawer of the
bureau and continued "Cut strips of your
material the same size as the drawer of the
match box, and paste very neatly all around it.
Do the same thing to all the six drawers, than
lay them aside until they are perfectly dry
Next take your six matchbox covers, paste
them together one on top of the other three

high, then paste the sides together. They wal
look like bureau whose drawers have been
removed. Let these also dry. Take a small
piece of cardboard, cut it into a triangle and
paste it on to the back of the bureau.
Paste your mirror in the middle Of TIE
cardboard triangle, then paste your material
on the fiat top OF the bureau and also all
around the standing-up cardboard, leaving the
mirror to peep out effectively. Now take your
covered drawers, sew curtain ring on to the
middle of each and slide them into the covers.
The finished effect will be very pretty indeed"

Cruise of the Sloop *Skiddoo .
Il Story of AdOenture on the Water
BY W. BOYCE MORGAN.

Connected with the police station there, he
told of finding the stolen boats.
And when they come to take them home"
he said with chuckle, you'd better have them
bring a mechanic, because I'm not sure just
how badly treated those motors Anyway, the
boats are pretty sure to be there when their
owners come for them!"
Eager to know the result of the raid on the
gangs cache, Ted and Harry settled down in
the police station to wait for the return OF the
officers, who arrived some two hours later.
They had found the isolated house without
trouble, but reported that the men, the truck
and the cases of smuggled merchandise had dis
appeared.
"But the boats were still there" said the
chief consolingiy, land well get the gang later
if they have enough nerve to stay in this neigh
borhood, now that we know their headquar-
ters."
Confronted by the necessity Of replenishing
their supplies, lost when the dinghy was sunk,
and also of getting anew dinghy the two boys
decided to spend the night in Lakeville. After
hearing this decision, the chief of police offered
them the hospitality of the station, and 10
minutes after he had uttered the words Ted
and Harry were cured up on cots in his Office,
sound asleep
On the following morning, after they had
eaten a late breakfast at local restaurant,
they went down to the dock to look over the
Skddoo, accompanied by the chief Of police.
To their surprise they found a brand-new
shining dinghy tied to the stern Of their sail
boat.
"For cats sake!" cried Harry. "where did
that come from?"
"And look! It's full of food" said Ted
That's little present from the town of
Lakeville," said the chief of police with a
jovial grin. 1--WE figured you had that much
coming to you from us, after enabling us to
clean out bunch of bad characters such as
we chased from this part of the country last
night"
The delighted boys poured out their thanks
and then, with many good wishes from the
officer, they started their motor again and put
back out into the lake to continue their inter-
rupted vacation cruise. And two weeks later,
with her crew as brown as Indians and as
hard as nails, the good ship Skiddoo sailed
proudly into the st. Thomas River and then
under power of her lone lung" engine, nosed
her way gently to the home anchorage that
had been vacant for many days.
Nor was their return without its surprise
When they finally pulled ashore in the dinghy
that had been a gift from the town of Lake
willie, they found themselves awaited by their
families, and by several smiling men as well.
One of these men stepped forward and shook
the boys warmly by the hand. 1t was Edward
H. Powell
Boys" he said, holding up hand In which
two pieces of paper f1uttered, cts with lot
of pleasure that I give you these two checks,
each for $3.50, as your reward for finding boats
stolen from the Yacht Club And on behalf Of
the club, as well as for myself as owner of one
of those boats, want to say that we all owe
the Skiddoo and its crew just about % hearty
cheers!"
