Castoria
made especially for
CHILDREN

children usually hate to take
medicine but every child loves the
taste of Castoria. And mothers like
its action-so gentle, yet so prompt
and effective.
Castoria is never-failing comfort
to children and mothers alike be-
cause it was formulated expressly
for children-to correct their little
ills and upsets.
The beauty of it is you can give
Castoria to children of al ages with
equally sure results. When baby's
cry warns of collie, few drops of
Castoria has him soothed; and free
from pain. he is asleep ssain in

THIS sAFECRACKER VERY
 FRIENDLY WITH POLICE

Pawtucket. R. I. - (UP) - Leo J. McNamara has been a safe cracker for IA years, but he never has served a day in jail.
 In fact, he's very friendly with police, and that's no municipal scandal, either.
 McNamara is what you would call an honest safe-cracker. with Q keen antipathy to the dishonest members of his profession.
 Ever since 1917, when he first be- gan the study of vaults and strong boxes, McNamara has been regard ed locally as an authority on safe- cracking. Police have called on him frequently for cooperation in con- nection with robberies involving this art.

Uncle Rays
 Corner
A LITTLE SATURDAY TALK

Our Scrapbook club continues to groW-more than 2,000 new mem bers have been added since last mentioned it in a Saturday talk, and the postman is bringing in more re- quests every day.
 I am glad to see the club grow because 1t indicates that readers be- lieve the Corner is worth saving. In order to provide book which may be useful in future years. members of the club clip out the story each day and paste it on sheet of paper.
 Most members of the club keep the sheets of paper in loose-leaf books. They can increase the size of the book when they need to do so. Another plan is to use books which happen to be around the house and which no one in the fam fly wants to read or save. The Cor ner stories can be pasted over the printing in such books.
 Here is an example of one of the recent letters which readers have sent:
 Dear Uncle Ray: read your Corner every day, and I have very much fun reading 1t. I would like to join the club. I enclose q stamp. Please send mo membership certificate and directions so I can learn how to mGkc a scrapbOOk. Please send q membership card for my sister. Her name is Geraldine. Please don't forget mo, will you?
 Dorothy KOepne".
 I am glad to welcome Dorothy and her sister in the club. Her friends. and you and your friends, will be welcomed, too.
 It is easy to join the club. When a coupon is provided with the story. fill in your name, address and age. Then place it in an envelope, ad- dressed to Uncle Ray, in care of the newspaper. If you wish, you may ask an older person to help with the addressing. Please be SURE to enclose stamped envelope ad- dressed to yourself This is to be used to send you the printed leafiet of directions, the 1891 Corner Scrap book design and a membership cer- tificate.
 If you do not find a coupon in the paper, write return envelope. Please be careful about all of the addressing, for I do not want to dis appoint any of my good friends of the Corner family.
