ODE TO A COW

When life seems one too many for you, Go look at 6 COW. When the futures black and the outlook blue, Go look at a COW. For sine does nothing but eat her food, And sleep in the meadows entirely mood, Refusing to fret or worry or brood Because she doesn't know how. Whenever you're feeling bothered and sore, Go look at a COW. When everything else is fearful bore Go and look at Q COW. Observe her gentle and placid air, Her nonchalance and savoir-faire, Her absolute freedom from every care, Her imperturbable brow. So when you're at the end of your wits, Go look at Q COW. Or when your nerves are frayed to bits And wrinkles furTow your brow; She'll merely moo in her gentle way; Switching her rtdder as if to say: Bother tomorroWl Let's live todayi Take the advice of . cow"

Philatelic NetUs Third International 10000 Requests For Exhibition May 9.l7 Airmail Special Stamp
Wy J. H, ID.

For . number of years Inter. national philatelic exhibitions, which arc held annually In ono or another of the capital cities of tho world, have each adopted c short expressive name based on the full name of the exhibi. ton. Apex was the ylamo of the Airpost Exhibition in London two years ago and Linprex was the short title of tho Literature and Philatelic Exhibition in Brussels last year. The name which has been suggested for the show to be held at the Grand Central Palace In New York, May Q to i7 next, is that At the head of these notes, Tipex, and is shortened from the Third International Philatelic Exhibition, since this is the third such show this country has had, the two former ones having been held in New York in 1913 and again in 1926.
 Since there H but one inter. national show each year, the philatelic world is represented and collectors the world over lend their efforts toward it's Suc- cess. Thus far invitations to ex. hib!t or to act as judges have been accepted by prominent philatelists in Japan, China, Australia and South Africa as well as from the nearer coun. tries of Europe. Collections to be shown will number over three thousand. Special hotel accom-. modations and special railway fares are being arranged by the Association for Stamp Exhibi. tons Inc, which is sponsoring the show, information concern ing which will be released at an early date.
 Confirmation has just been re. ceiyed that M. D. Chow, prom inent specialist from China, will attend the exhibition as one of the judges.
 For the hundreth anniversary of the battle of the Alamo, Thomas Shutrick, 277 Ridge street, Port Chester, N.

While no check made before June can bo regarded as c criterion of the actual number of ex-servicemen resident in the city, it is believed that if the S,000-l, 900 figures were nearly accurate, the number of ap- plicants for the forms would have been much greater.
 e,i07 Certified
 Up to late this week, according to information received in veterans circles here, there had been 0,iS1 bonus application blanks signed and certified by the Veterans Adminis- tration Facility at Newington. Vet. erans' organizations and the Red Gross throughout the state are CO., operating with Newington officials in the work.
 Authorities ct the Newington headquarters state that approxi- Fnateiy 44,000 veterans In Connecti. cut are eligible for the bonus, and that ct the present rate of filing, the majority of applications will be received within . short tlme.
 The most accuate check possible here today disclosed that approxi. mately 400 forms had been applied for ct the Legion headquarters on Holmes avenue, about 376 ct Red Cross headquarters on Field street, and about 200 more applied for through the local VFW post. An undetermined number have re. ceived the form through other vet- 0rans' organizations such As the DAV and the Italian 4smerican War Veterans Post.

Lucas, iiS North street. Escaban, Mlchi. gan.
 The fact that 10000 orders have already been received by the Philateiic Agency b an in. dication of tho intense interest of collectors in the approaching issue of the bi-colored airmail special delivery stamp. Two commemorative, marking the tercentenary of Rhode Island and the other in tribute to the Arkansas Centennial, have beetl tentatively approved by post of- flee officials.
 Ohlclais are undecided on what designs they will use for these Issues, which gre expect cd to be introduced early next summer. # the usual routine is followed they will call on the historical societies of both states for suggestions. The only con. ditlon is that the design must concern . subject of historic importance in the early his. tories of the states.
 Plans for introduction of Q new presidential series, slated for production last year but de- ferred indefinitely, are still un- certain. The heavy burden i'm. posed on collectors last year by presentation of many commem- oratives and sale of the famed Farley imperforate sheets, was responsible for the decision to withhold the presidential group.
 The Massachusetts depart naent of education has just an- nounced . course in "Educa- tlonal Philately" to be given at Harvard University. During the course the following subjects will be discussed: Value of ex. hiblts, the origin, growth and development of the postal sys- tenn, revenue stamps and strange uses of phiIately.

 E. L. Lindquist, nationally known philateIist, has added an- other laurel to his record with the release of "The United States Ten Cent stamp of 1885, 1857" by Stanley B. Ashbrook. This work, which has been rtin- ming as q serial in the Ameri- can PhIlateiist, is an intensive study of this one adhesive, trac- ing It's development sud varia- tions through the six years prior to the outbreak of the Civil War.
 Known as the stamp of the Argonauts, the Ten Cent Green was intended primarily to facili- tate the transport of mall bee tween the east and California. Stanley Ashbrook has traced the origin and uses of the stamp with extreme thoroughuess. and has clronicled and illustrated plate varieties and cancellations. In all, the booklet Is to be rec commended without reserve to all students of philatcly. interested in benefiElng from tho exIiaus~ tive research of the learned cole leetor.

O'NETL ANNOUNCES


Construction of the Cut Bank
plant will serve to take from 1000
to 1000 barrels of daily production
out of the Canadian market and
will relieve the oveF-production sit
uation in Cut Bank by giving that
much additional market of other
producers who may supply Montana
Pipeline.
The Canadian market in June was
taking 1000 barrels of Montana oil
daily. Development of oil production
in Turner Valley is expected to cut
this to 5000 barrels. The Home
Refinery at Great Falls Is expected
to take 1000 barrels next spring as
against 1000 barrels at present
International is using 1900 barrels.
This with the OgNeil plant will
bring the Cut Bank market up to
about 10000 barrels per day, or
about equal to present runs
