Fair Guests Offer
 Hotel Problems
Entire Family Moved Two Floors Without Disturbing
 Any Possessions

Chicago (UP)-With a heavy influx O ftransient trade as a re- suit of the Worlds Fair. hotel managers are forced to meet new and unusual problems.
 A situation arose recently which demanded all of the tact and re- sourcefulness of one of the man agers.
 A copper man and his wife and three children stopped at the hotel. They occupied a two-room suite on the eighth floor. They originally intended to stay only a few days. but extended their visit over a week.
 Previously the rooms had been reserved for a large shoe conven- ton. The family was requested to take another suite and refused saying they were settled to stay another week.
 Finally the copper man said that he and his family were going to the fair. and would be gone about six hours. He requested that he be given another suite ex- actly the same as the one his family was occupying and that their belongings be moved into 1t. The manager organized 12 ser wants. A diagram was made of the room. An unfinished jig-saw pug Gerardi, Louis D'Ambrose, Michael T0l0fn A0 ana IoRahh Guerrara

 "Since New England is the best organized area in the United States for economic cooperation, there can be no doubt that it's response to this feature of the Presidents recovery program will be in keep ing with it's records of accomplish ment in previous national emer- genclcs which, like this one, pre- sented practical problems to be solved by united effort in behalf of a great common cause."

 The stan of IF labored for hours, but when the man and his family returned they entered the sam room they had left. except that 1t was two floors higher, even to the puzzle and the open book.
 Hhe next morning the copper man complimented the manager nthe job of moving. saying, "0ne of your attendants found a naiss- ing part of my jig-saw puzzle on the floor, and I was able to finish it"

EXPLAINED

CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-Termine
the Home Owners Loan Corpora
tion a temporary institution tc
supplement the permanent actvi
tics of the Federal Home Loan
Bank SYSTEM, William F. Steven
son, chairman of the Federal
Home Loan 2ank board, addressed
the annual convention of the
United States Building and Loan
League here.
He said:
Building and loan assOcia-
tions hold S6,5OO, ,OOO, 900 of home
mortgages in the United States.
Savings banks which are eligi-
BILE for membership in the Fed
eral Home Loan Bank system
just as the building and loan
associations are held $500, ,OOO,-
600, SO that the classes for
whom. the system was devised
hold half of all the mortgages
on homes in the country.
"Other institutions which
have been engaged in the same
business are rapidly retiring
from that field and it takes no
prophet to see that within a few
years the loan will be long time
and SO amOrtized that the frugal
owner of the home can pay off
his loan by reasonable monthly
payment and lOa1-5 will be con.
fined to ,St..:utions which will
be either actual or potential
members of the Home Loan
Bank system.
"The system has grown since
March so quietly that little at
tentiOn has been paid to it, but
its loans actually paid out to
its members are now over $780,
100000, in contrast to about
$1O,OOO,OO2 when this program
was started"

Located on a high elevation
overlooking washington the latest

1904 Twenty-eighth st. S. E., is
one of the most attractive little

RADIATOR PAINT.
AFFECTS HEAT
Of ROOM
Metallic Coating Reduces S
Radiation While Color In
Creases Efficiency

The type of paint used on a
radiator may cause it to con-
duct either more or less heat
into the room, according to the
Bureau of Standards.
Radiator paints, the Bureau
points out, can be classified in
two groups: Metallic coatings
and the white and colored flat
paints.
An actual test made by apply
ing a metallic paint to a ra-
diator previously coated with flat
paint showed a decrease in the
amount of heat radiated, the
Bureau reports.
Now Time to Paint
The Federal research findings
on the painting of radiators are
of particular interest to home
owners at this time, since the
completion of such work is ad-
visable before cold weather sets
in. The following conclusions
are reached in the Bureaus re-
port:
eff a metallic coated raditOr
is repainted with a flat paint,
either white or cOlored, the heat
given off can be increased from
10 to 20 per cent.
HEAT CAN BE CONSERVED
"Since easements are usually
Overheated and much of the
heat is wasted, some economy
may be effected by painting the
heater and pipes with metallic
paint.
'If a radiator is situated next
to an outside wall, the heat sup
piled directly to the wall is more
or less wasted. Some slight
economy may be obtained, there
fore, by using metallic paint on
the side facing the wall and
nonmetallic paint on the visible
portions"
The scientific section of the
American paint, varnish and lac
Quer industries lists colors in the
order of their heat efficiency as
follows: White, cream, pale green
and blue, red, brown and black.

TAXES IN JULY,
AUGUST RISE
BY Universal Service

A strong upswins in retail trade
during July and August, with in
dications it will continue this
month, was reflected in figures
made public yesterday by the In
ternal Revenue Bureau.
The bureau reported a gain of
$152,646,520 in internal revenue
receipts for the first two months
of the 1884 fiscal year, as COM
pared with the same period last
year.
The Government reported large
increases in revenue from the
sale of automobiles, tires, gaso.
line, cigars and cigarettes, beer,
liquor, soft drinks, theater ad-
missions, candy, chewing gum
and many othre taxable items.
While the Government has no
figures to indicate the extent of
increased buying for commodities
other than those upon which
taxes are collected, the heavy
increase in this category indi-
Gated proportionate increases all
along the line, it was believed.

English Oak Effect
Is E0su to Obtain

An English oak effect can be
produced on white or red oak by
first staining the wood with a
mixture made from burnt umber
and raw sienna and a touch of
drop black. After the stain has
dried, the wood, if filled with
paste filler tinted the color of the
stain, may be finished with wax
or vanished, rubbed and polished.
A dull surface can be produced
with a flatting varnish.

Protective Coating
Ur0ed for ShinuLeS

At the first sign of weathering,
shingles should be given a fresh
protective coating of paint or
stain. Neglect causes nails to
rust, and as a result shingles be-
come loosened and blow away dur
ing severe weather.

FERRIS WHEEL FOR FLIES

1t is not many years-around rs, should say
since flies swarmed in all the houses in Chapel Hill
Window screens were practically unknown. People
took the flies for granted acurse which God had
permitted the devi to infiict upon mankind. .
A familiar sight in almost every household was

revolved, in a horizontal plane, a pair of black
cloth wings. Each wing of about the size of a
tennis racquet The machine placed upon the
dining table, and you wound it up with key, as
you would clock, to keep the wings in motion.
The idea was that they shooed the flies away As
matter of fact they did very little if any good.
The flies would buzz about the table, then sit upon
the wings and ride, and then buzz about again
