old woman retorted.
But the sheriff was troubled. "Yon

he protested.
She tossed her head; but Bart sug-
gested:
"You can't blame her, Sheriff. You
had your mind all made up 1t was
win, but Granny wouldn't stand for
blaming Will. feeling the way she does
about him and Jenny. She'd do any
thing, or say anything at all, to stop
you"
Saladine thought this explanation
was in fact plausible enough: but
Marin Pierce appeared to resent it.
Her black eyes were bright.
You, Bart" she cried, IF you don't
shut up, I'll ask you some questions
you'll find hard answering"
Bart said agreeably: why GER
tain, Granny! Fire away! Ask what
ever yO're a mind!"
"All right, l WILL" she decided posi-
lively; and she seemed to lean back in
her chair to relax at ease. Not
that it's my business" she confessed.
And if it comes down to that, not
that / think HUldy's any great loss !
Will, don't you glare at me! But you,
Bart, tell me this. My brother Win

Bart reminded her, his eyes twinkling.

was you?"
"Shucks, no! I'd had a couple"
"When did you first get the idee of
going fishing?"
"Why, yest'day," Bart decided. "The
ground was too wet for blowing, after
the rain. l hadn't nothing much to
do, only the chores; so dug me some
worms, but before l could get started
Win come along, so l didn't go till
today"
She eyed him narrowly. "You start
out this morning before he left?"
"No. Pretty soon after"
She said sharply: Then you got
started by ten o'clock or so, and it
must have been close on to noon when
somebody knocked Hubby off the ledge.
Didn't take you all that time to fish
down that far, did it?'
I'D fished way down brook below
there" Bart declared. II was on my
way back when 1 heard Hubby
screech"
"Catch any fish," she demanded.
He shook his head. "Never got a
bite"
Saladine saiu mildly: "They took
hold for me-"
Bart retorted, in perfect good humor:
You was ahead of me-" And Saladine
perceived the justice of this; but Marin
Pierce cried:
How come you know he was ahead
of you? Didn't see him, did you?"
NO" Bart explained. But l see his

She objected uuick1y. "Win fold the

i, rnittees set about the task of pro- posing uniform aeronautical regu- lation - particularly since regula- ton was considered as the greatest need for the promotion of aviation development in the country. This i fact is evident from the i2l report of the American Bar Association special committee on aviation, ex- cerpts of which read aS follows:
 "The backwardnessS of OUT coln- merciai development has been the subject of unfavorable comment. Wherever we have inquired aS to the cause of this we have met with the same answer: The fault Is with the law. The law respecting aero- nautics is the one Fundamental prob- lem of the actual commercial de. velopment of the art at the present time."
 We are informed that there is still in the files of the attorney gen. erals office 0 letter from 5wltzer- land, dated in 1913, requesting . copy of our laws 50 they could pass similar ones. Several eastern states followed Connecticuts example within year or two.
 The original laws were adminis- tered by the Secretary of State (Matthew II. Rogers of Bridgeport, 1o00-iD13, still living).
 The attorney general, ct the time of passage, was John H. Light or Norwalk, (l0i0-1o16), still living. There may be some interestiia cor- respcndence in this regard.
 Governor Baldwin's executive sec retary was Judge Edwin 8. Thomas of columbia, also still living. The speaker of the house in 1911 was the present clerk of bills, Frederick A. Scott.
 Dept. of AeronautlCs
 The administration of the laws was turned over to the Motor Vehi. cle commissioner in 1921 and on May 10, 1927, the Connecticut "De- partmefit of Aviation" was created aS an independent department. (1n 1929 its name was changed to the present Department of Aeronau- tics".) This was the first inde. pendent state aviation department in the country.
 Tn 1929 the state purchased the first state-owned airplane in the country to be used for aviation ad- ministration. Tn this same year, the Department Headquarters were built at Brainard Field, Hartford, the first building in the country dedicated to aviation administration.

The ie30 outlook for real estate, and inferentially for real estate sec curitles, is the brightest 1t has been in several years, according to Q na- ticnal survey just completed by the Real Estate Securities corarnottee of the Investment Bankers associa- ton of America.
 Residential construction hould in. crease during I036 about 100 per cent over 1885, according to esti- mates obtained by the committee, which reported that residential building is leading practically every other lime of Industrial activity at the present time.
 "Given an increase of from 10 to 16 per cent in general business activity, the continuance of easy money, and no material changes in real estate taxes, 1t is reasonable to expect further improvement in real estate values, especially mod erately priced suburban residential property" the report stated.
 income from properties should increase, due both to higher unit rentals and greater occupancy. The greatest rise in income should take place In lower and medium-priced apartments and homes. Rentals should also be improved by mod. ernizing and improving property. However, and substantial increase in real estate values will probably Do checked by the large amount of distressed real estate still over- hanging the market"

ARMY OF INSECTS
 TO INVADE STATE
People Warned to Protect Homes With Proper
 Screen Barriers

With tho approach of summer these United States are about to be invaded by on enemy that will cause It's people much annoyance. It is not c force armed with guns and poison gases. This enemy will be Q horde of finsects--naosquitoes, flies and other winged creatures that invade homes unless they are properly pro- tected with barriers of screen cloth.
 How many such insects there will be in this country during the sum. rner cannot even be estimated. They will run into the billions. Govern ment authorities estimate that 0 fe- male fly lays, on on average, l20 eggs at c time, and her daughters soon grow up and in turn are capa- bic of laying an equal number. There is no race suicide In the fly family.
 It requires eternal vigilance to keep insects out of the home. Many of them are dangerous germ carriers, and the only way to keep them out Is by ali effective barrier of screens AOK WAAQOWop 000ko 0AA0 RSSSkASos These screens should be rust.proof, for Q single break due to rust or other causes will permit the enemy to enter.
 Patching rust holes in corrodible metal screens is an endless task and generally most unsatisfactory. Soon the screen becomes Q mass oi patches, which also rust in their turn. Tn addition to being useless rusty screens mar the appearance of the home. Bronze, m alloy ot copper, oldest of the metals of com merce, is generally used as the most effective barrier against insects, Bronze cannot rust.
 Because of the revival of home- building this year, when 1t is esti- mated, more than Q quarter of q million new units will be construct ed. 1t is predicted by the Copper a Brass Research Association of New York that the largest tonnage oi bronze insect screens in the history of the industry will be sold.

Connecticut Adopted
 First Aviation Law
State Took Initiative in Formulating Legislation in
 l0ll-BiII Signed By Governor Baldwin

Connecticut laws governing avla- ton were the first in the United States and, 90 far as can be as- certained, the first in the world. Passed by the Connecticut Legisla- ture, they were signed by Governor Simeon D. Baldwin on June 6, 1911. The laws were sponsored by Cover nor Baldwin, who had previously, as Q member of the American Bat Association, attempted to have that association recommend such Q code for uniform adoption by the several states. The association felt that 1t was premature, and took no further action at that time. To quote from U. s. Bureau of Air Commerce Bul- letin No. IS:

 "In 1911 Simeon E. Baldwin proc posed Q resolution in favor of State regulation of aeronautics to the American Bar Association comrnit- tee on jurisprudence and law re- form. The committee refused to recommend the adoption of the reso- lution on the grounds that. such leg. islation had not yet become Q mat: ter of general interest. AS governor of Connecticut, however, Judge Baldwin did secure the passage Of an air-navigation bill and the Connec. ticut act of 1911 was the first rneas- ure regulating aviation in America.
 Tn 1920 aviation committees were adopted by the American Bar As- Sociation and the National Confer ence of Commissioners on uniform State Laws. Intending to profit by the experience of the States with railroad legislation, the two com

Ace ccrding to an index of 200 eastern issues, the average price, which was at S2l0 per 9lOO0 at the end of 1895 reached e40S in March, l036.
 New York issues advanced to 4308, Philadelphia to 9376, Boston to $672 and Pittsburg to e287.
 "Theater issues were the price leaders of this eastern index rising to ..0l9; office buildings at $466 were next; housekeeping apart ments were next at $366. "An index of 42 Chicago real estate bonds picked at random from selected is- sues, rose from Q low of 9l04 in February, 1033, to S308 in March, 1036-an increase of lo5 per cent.
 "On the Pacific coast, and par- ticularly in California, the advance in the market price of real estate securities has also been very en- couraging. An index of 50 Pacific coast real estate issues advanced 0.l per cent during the two months of January and February, and on March l, the average prive of this group was $538, as compared with 8 price of $367 as of December Sl, 1884.

FILA ENCOURAGES PROPERTY BUYING Realty Head Says People Made Property
 Conscious

Washington, D. C-Credit for making people property conscious was given the Federal Housing Ad- nainlstration by Joseph w. Cathar- inc in Q recent address before the Washington Real Estate Board.
 Mfr. Oatharine Is vice president 0i the National Association of Real Estate Boards, former president ot New York Real Estate Board, presi- dent of the Ohauncey Real Estate co. of Brooklyn, and first vice presi- dent and trustee of Kings County Savings Bank of Brooklyn,
 'sThe Federal Housing Adminis- tration is doing one thing that think some of Us are inclined tc overlook, and that is its definite program carried on for the purpose of making people property conscious The desire to buy Q home is strong and 1t is being encouraged by the Housing Administration. This should help all of us, for our business is tc sell property, and when people be- come interested in purchasing real estate we should do ell in our power to see that these people actually buy property.
 "A year or 50 ago 1t was almost impossible to obtain money on bond and mortgage, but through the stiifi- ulus given the mortgage market byh the Federal Housing Administration many institutions throughout the country are investing in insured mortgages of the Housing Adminis- tration. While we in the mortgage business should be appreciated by influence of the Government in bus- mess, yet in times such as we have been passing through the great as- Sistance that the Federal Housing Administration hes given to our business should be appreciated byb us all"
