others to offer their cooperation. However, through some error, the names of Nuhn & Nuhn and Martin McEvoy, Inc, local realtors, was omitted from the list. The committee today asked that these names be ad- ded with an apology for yesterdays omission.
 Today's cards sent out were for warded to automobile agencies, neighborhood stores and, in general. to the mercantile field. It is estimated that there is a large amount to be realized from this area in Water bury's business life if the concerns not now contributing consent to "do their bit''.
 Waterbury's unemployed has not de- creased, 1t is apparent from figures available. Therefore, it is believed that those who have not contributed their little bit, of course through oversight, will now join in the drive to aid those who are now Ion their uppers."
 Of course there are many who are contributing weekly who do not wish their names mentioned. The list of these persons include business houses and corporations. The names of Nuhn & Nuhn and Martin McEvoy, Inc, were listed in this category. How eyer, it is now felt that the individ- ua1 employees are entitled to recogni- tion for their generaus efforts, hence the publication at this time of the names of the two firms mentioned above.

 "I must go to the worms" she said; "the worms won't come to me-"
 The rooster vainly spent his day, through habit. by the ways Where fat, round worms had passed in squads back in the rainy days. When nightfall found him sup perless. he growled in accents rough:
 I'm hungry as a fowl can be. Conditions sure are tough" He turned then to the old black hen. and said: Its worse with you;
 For you're not only hungry, but must be tired, too. I rested while watched for worms. so I feel fairly perk. But how are you? Without worms. too, and after all that work?"

THE SENSATIONALLY BETTER MOTOR FUEL THAT GIVES YOU MOST FOR YOUR MONEY

MODERN automobile engines are vastly differ. ent from those of just few years ago. Many of them have what is known as Thigh compres. sion." This means more power, but you need an equally high.grade gasoline to get maximum benefit With an inferior fuel, you hear "ping" or knock, which is an indication that the gas is not igniting properly.
 There are number of ways of overcoming Knocking" in gasoline. One is by careful selection of crudes. Another is by painstaking refining methods Another by relentless tests of all gasoline produced, and the rejection of that below quality.
