EIGHT MONKEYS
 HAD GOOD JACS

Montreal, Que, June 21.-(UP) Eight monkeys staggered back to their cages in Belmont Park today to sleep or hangovers. Three others were still at large.
 For four days the monkeys gam- boled through the Cartierville woods after escaping from the park.
 Park officials, tired of chasing their wards up and down trees. yesterday planted 15 cups of Scotch whiskey in strategic points throughout the woods. Monkeys, they knew, had "a terrible taste for tippling" but it put them to sleep.
 The liquor brought results. Eight of the wanderers staggered through the woods early today and climbed into their cages.
 All 15 cups of liquor were gone and officials are wondering whether AIphonse who seemed particularly staggerish had more than his share.

MANY LOCAL AGED PEOPLE AIDED BY
 ROOSEVELT BILL
Over l25 Now Residing in
 institutions Can Live Their Own Way

More than 125 aged persons liv' ing in local institutions, both pub lie and private, will be among the many waterburians over 65 years old who will be eligible for pen- sions under the new federal secur- ity net. Local charitable institu- tions will be aided greatly by the passage of the new law and ex. penses of those aiding their aged relatives in private institutions will be greatly relieved.
 Approximately seventy-five in- mates at Brookside, alone will be eligible for the federal pen. sion, it was estimated today. "Out of the poor house and back to some private place to live"-tha' was the outlook of these and other local aged in the city today as they kept anxious eyes on Washington, D. C., awaiting final congressional action and the announcement that President Roosevelt had affixed his signature to the law.
 25,0O0,00O To Benefit
 It IS estimated that 25,0o0, ,00( people in the United States will be eligible to benefit by the new law The number of persons who will be eligible in Waterbury is diffi' cult to estimate but it Is a safe estimate that the figure will be 1T the hundreds.
 There are nine persons at thu Jewish Home for the Aged wht will qualify. also. and 20 ct South mayd Home for the Aged. At Wa terbury and St. Mary's hospitals small number of aged persons wht have been confined to the institu tons for long period of time wll also come under the provisions O the law.
 10 To $sS Monthly

The government wil match dollar for dollar all none! given by the states. States tha Lave no old age pension laws ar, given until 1888 to pass such leg islation and in the meantime tn government will do its bit to al, the aged living in those states stil | to take action.

The factory representative explains
that his Company is able to offer this
remarkable value only because Of the
ready consumer acceptance which en-
ables them to place orders with the
tray manufacturer for enormous guam
titles. This representative goes on to
say that in his fifteen years in the
soap business he has yet to see a
sales plan that has met with such over
whelming acceptance by the consumer.
He attributes this, not only to the
unusual value offered, but to the gen.
eral feeling of goodwill toward Col
gate, by the dealers as well as the
consumers Of Palmolive, Super Suds
and Octagon products.
