BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT.

The Second American Philatelic
Congress, meeting at the Hotel Statler,
Cleveland, Monday and Tuesday. took
important steps toward the formula
tion Of a program for the future de-
velopment of the science and the art
Of stamp collecting in the United
States.
With Eugene Klein. president of the
American Philatelic Society. presiding
and many eminent students of
philately in attendance, the congress
heard IA papers on an equal number
of different aspects of stamp collect
ing read by their authors during the
first two sessions Then. at the con-
gress banquet Monday evening. Gerard
Ten Eyck Beeckman of Washington
announced the most sensational pro-
posal to come before the assembly-a
plan to raise funds for the purchase
Of the worlds rarest stamp for pres
entation to the Smithsonian Institu-
ton. He referred to the 1856 1-cent
black on magenta issue of British
Guiana, formerly owned by the late
Arthur Hind and now catalogued at
s50000. and suggested that the
philatelic fraternity of the Nation CO.
operate in an effort to keep the rarity
in America by subscribing to buy it
for the national philatelic museum
long anticipated for the Nations
Capital. A committee of collectors,
he said. should be organized for the
campaign.
Meanwhile, the congress paid tribute
to the Smithsonian's philatelic curator,
Mrs. Catherine L. Manning, by award
ing her a silver plate appropriately
inscribed.
Certificates recognizing their con-
tributionS to the congress also were
distributed at the banquet to the
authors of the IA papers submitted
and a similar certificate was given
Miss Irene M. Pistorio for her history
of the first congress.
On Tuesday morning the congress
philatelic writer's breakfast provided
opportunity for an informal discus
sion of journalistic problems, in which
Don Grieve of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. Rollin E. Flower of the Buf-
falo Evenings News. George w. Linn
of Linn's Weekly Stamp News, Albert
F. KunZe of Weekly Philatelic Gossip.
Ralph A. Kimble of the American
Philatelist and many others partici-
pated.
A general discussion of the papers
read the previous day followed. Those
speaking included Fred W. Green,
former vice president of the American
Philatelic Society; D. Blake Baths,
president of the Rubber City Stamp
Club, Akron, and Donald w. Martin,
president of the Garfield Perry Stamp
Club, Cleveland, and chairman of the
Host Committee of the congress.
The fourth session was a luncheon
man of the jury appointed to judge
the papers, announced the award of
a silver plate to Donald F. Lybarger
for his monograph on THE United
States Issues of 1918-1920: Offset
Printings" Honorable mention was
accorded to Leo Shaughnessy, Sharon,
Pa, for his Notes on United States
No. SO and No. A Stamps" and to
DR.. Clarence w. Herman for his
Stamps and Mail Service Of the
Private Posts of Chicago"
All the papers, printed in the con-
gress book, were furnished to regis
tered guests before the congress closed.

them for their foolishness should there
be general disagreement among them
as to how the peoples of the earth
should best conduct their affairs.
One of the most interesting dolls
in the collection, as it is perhaps the
homeliest, is large rag doll called
Dred II. An exact replica of a still
earlier one belonging to the daughter
of a noted New England abolitionist
family, it was given the name Of bred

decision before the Civil War. Made

its little Boston owner so loved it that
she wore out the original CARRYING it
around with her. Thereupon for her
solace and comfort an exact duplica-
tion of Dred had to be made which
was called Dred II. When a picture
was to be made of it's owner she re-
fused the pose unless bred II could
have his picture taken with hers. This
is still in existence. A letter attesting
Dred lis history accompanied this
gift.
An interesting by-product of Jeans
doll collection is a sheaf of letters
which her mother has received from
mothers all over the United States,
asking suggestions as to how they, too,
might start a doll collection for their
small daughters, and if you haven't
already guessed the kind of folks Jean
has for parents. perhaps you will gain
a further impression from learning
that they have been answered In every
case with interesting follow-ups as to
how the collections were going.
After seeing Jean Frantz's dolls and
her joy in them. may suggest to you
that if Christmas has lost some of its
magic charm for you, the best way to
recapture it is to enable some child
to have the sort of Christmas which
the possession of a doll typifies?
Through such gift, venture to
prophesy. you will once again find
yourself in tune with the spirit of that
first Christmas in far-away Bethlehem.

The abdication Of King Edward
