I'm 1917, when a terrific earthquake
visited Guatemala, one Of the few
buildings to survive was the Palacio
de Minerva. An attempt was made
to inclose the pavilion and house the
contents OF the destroyed Museum or
Palacio de Ia Reforma. but this was
given up.
II also learned with amusement
that the editors Of the standard stamp
catalogue do not know the correct Eng
lish translation OF 'Palacio de La Re-
forma.' They call this museum re-
formatory.' Making another stab at
the correct name, in the 1887 edition
OF the catalogue they term 1t Palace
de la Reforma.'
Miss Mollie Lewis. treasurer Of the
federation, also spoke from the same
station on the same occasion. "One
Of the most interesting things in stamp
collecting" she argued. ''is running
across stamp you've never seen be-
fore and can't identify. Here's a
challenge that must be met, and the
philatelist must then consult the map,
the atlas and maybe the dictionary.
before he finds out which country is
sued the stamp and what the strange
letters on the face really mean.
"Of course. identifying an unknown
stamp is only one of the absorbing
points in stamp collecting, for stamp
collecting serves as a modern magic
carpet. In a few minutes even the
inexperienced collector finds himself
whisked to mysterious corners Of the
earth and travelling among a number
of countries, seeing strange sights
and historical monuments and max
ing friends with famous characters.
The pageant of civilization moves be-
fore him, and he finds himself drawn
into subjects which otherwise he
would regard as dull and to be avoided.
Before you know 1t, you've become
familiar with history. geography,
science, art and music-painlessly and
without much effort. And its all
great fun.
Certainly, there must be many
other appealing features in stamp COL
lecting, or else such distinguished men
as President Roosevelt, former Presi-
dent Hoover, Secretary Of the Interior
Ickes and thousands Of others would
not have become fascinated by this
hobby.
Stamps. it seems, help to make
practical the things we read about,
hear about and study about every day
in the year. Thus, the precanceled
stamp familiarizes the student with
the geography and commerce Of the
United States; and the collector OF
foreign stamps knows what the news
announcer is talking about when he
hears Of the bombing of the Alcazar,
the devaluation of the French franc,
the accession of King Edward VIII to
the throne, and the Italian occupation
Of Ethiopia.
IF you are interested in the cultu-
raj and historical aspects Of stamp
collecting, and are between the ages
Of 10 and Is, the Washington Fedora
ton Of Junior Stamp Collectors in
vites you to attend its meetings on the
second and fourth Saturdays of each
month"

WAYS TO IMPROVE
TRAFFIC OFFERED
Keystone Automobile Club Offers
IA Recommendations
to Aid.

A list of IA recommendation for
improvement of Washington traffic
conditions have been submitted to the
Advisory Board of the keystone Auto
mobile Club by George E. Keneipp,
club manager. They are based on
personal observations during a recent
visit to Milwaukee with District Of
fcials to study traffic conditions and
regulations there.
The recommendations include ad-
ininistration of traffic by single unit,
greater use of mounted police and of
patrolmen at intersections downtown,
yellow rather than white traffic lines,
use of lines at all crosswalks to pre-
vent cars from encroaching on Pc
destrian space, prevention of "weav-
ing" in and out of traffic by buses,
creation of a safety commission for
the city government to stimulate CO.
operation between citizens and en-
forcement agencies. Inauguration of a
weekly broadcast of traffic court trials,
improved street car loading platforms,
greater use of traffic lines on busy
streets. channelization of traffic at
heavily travelled and wide intersec-
tions, curb lighting and use of educa-
tiona1 signs at dangerous intersections
