rocking with laughter. He can and does
sound spontaneous and even accidental,
when really he has carefully composed

explains why he is always effective.
Seldom Makes Mistakes.
He has been reproached for retiring,
but he seldom makes mistakes. and per-
haps in this he is right again. There
are no new conquests for him. He spoke
to q generation which understood him.

young reared on postwar ideals do
not read him. He finds few new friends
in the world he looks out upon from his

for him to sally forth on new adventures.

work is done. Very little can hurt him
now. He is armored by the years and
the affection Of friends and the culti-
waited stoicism Of his own remote spirit.
There Is still and always will be much
Of the incurable child about him. He
will be gay and depressed, happy and
desperately sad, warm and curiously
cold, and no one outside viii quite know
why.
He has not touched the thought OF
the new world which is coming; he has
never attempted to RUNE the surface of
accepted attitudes toward things In the
present. He has left the battle Of life
TO others, and has offered drollery, a
charming fairy story, sweet tears and a
tender smile as the balsam which heals
all wounds. The world Of grown-up
men and women has been In effect his
perpetual mother, and he has never
given up the boyish task Of standing
anxiously on his head in his bed to try
to cure the pain at his mothers heart
and make her smile again.

Picture Gallery Change
Unearths ''Old Masters

ROME Especially "A change in the
dictatorship of the Bologna Picture
Gallery has brought about an 1mpor-
tant discovery of old masters. One
afternoon Sig. Mauceri, the new di-
rector, while looking over some pictures
stored in the gallery ran across two
valuable works the existence Of which
was unknown. After a minute study
OF his finds, Prof. Mauceri realized that
he had before him a color sketch OF
the Madonna and the Child" by Cor
gerrio, and a painting by Guido REM OF
an old lady Of noble birth. The Cor
reggie painting Immediately was given
a place worthy of its importance in the
Raphael room in the gallery, while
Guido Reni's work was being graced
with o new frame. Soon after the
Bologna finds Civita Castellana pro-
duced a series Of frescoes which prob
ably date from the thirteenth century
The discovery was made in the interior
Of the church after authorities had or
dered the reopening Of an alcove which
had been walled up when the structure
was repaired in the eighteenth century
The top row frescoes represent seven
saints, one of whom has since beer
identified as st. James. while the Sec
ond row shows the Madonna with the
Child Jesus, st. Catherine and several
apostles.

Plan Purchase of $20OO Strip of Mad River Land From American Brass-S65O 900 Collected in Back Taxes Sinking Fund Report Filed

Terse comment from Mayor Frank Hayes that 'it is like taking the money from one pocket and putting i. in another temporarily" preceded q vote by th1 board of finance at it's meeting yesterday afternoon that S400.000 be borrowed from bond funds and special funds now in the city treasury, this money to be used in meeting city bills until the May taxes commence coming in. The suggestion was advanced by Con- troller Daniel J. Leary.
 The money will be orrowed on a series of notes that will mature on May 1, 1881. This is a new system oi getting funds which eliminate the possibility of additional borrowing on the part of the city. By strict economy, the cutting down of pur- chases until after May. and careful supervision of funds by the control Ter and department heads. it is thought that this will oarry the city safely to the time when the May taxes are collectable.
 A $2,000 item was ordered set up in the 1881 budget for the purchase of strip of land from th American Brass company adjoining the pres ent location of the bridge on South Main street over the Mad river. This piece of land is needed to insure the proper bed for the supports of new bridge to be constructed in the near future. Heavy traffic makes this inn

The petition was temporar- fly tabled while this conference goes on.
 The report of the city treasurer shows that the balance on hand as of December 31, 193 was $2,242,- 437.S3 and on November, 1929, it was $2,S24. .822.25. It was accepted.
 Attorney George Guilfoile, back tax collector, reported that during the month of January 5. 5.697.09 and $29, 9,598.31 respectively were collect ed in back taxes from the first and second taxation districts. The re- port was ordered accepted and placed on file.

EVERYTHING that science could contribute has been embodied in ATLANTIC WHITE FLASH: A remarkable new formula. New crudes, care fully selected from the worlds choice oil fields. New and improved refining processes. New testing methods.
 Before we offered it to you, we put ATLANTIC WHITE FLASH to every conceivable test, on the road and in the laboratory. We found it had no equal, out of the scores of competitive motor fuels examined! Your enthusiastic approval has justified this care. Wherever it has been introduced, ATLANTIC WHITE FLASH has been acclaimed by thousands of motorists as the finest gasoline they have ever known.

WHITE FLASH we had reached the border.line of science and could go no farther. But that is not in accordance with Atlantic policy
 We are not satisfied with today's best: we want to make that best even better tomorrow.
 Therefore, we are constantly carrying on research at the great Atlantic laboratory. We are in touch with automobile manufac- turers, anticipating the fuel requirements of the new models they will bring out in the future. We are experimenting with every. thing which might possibly mean better product.
 We believe large portion of the motoring public looks to Atlantic for leadership in quail ity. We intend to maintain that leadership tomorrow as we'll as today.

FISH FLOUR F0R HUMAN
 FOOD RICH IN MINERALS

Fish flour is about to be intro duced to American palates as the result of recent research by the Bureau of Fisheries and the Bu- reau of Chemistry and Soils. Cal cium and other essential minerals are brought to the diet by this highly refined and biologically pure product, explains Popular Mechan- ics Magazine.
 Fish meal has long been used as a crude food for animal feed- ing and the flour is a preparation that will bring to the dinner table the same abundance of mineral salts that has benefited animals
 The flour is more highly refined than the meals and, in cooking, may be disguised to hide the fish taste.
 At present it is not available commercially, but experiments have shown that it can be used as a substitute for up to 15 per cent of white flour in sweet cookies
