mud PIES LEAD
T0C0|N HOBBY

The story Of the numismatical
side Of the life Of Edward L. Wei
kert, jr., started on a potato
patch on the old Weikert farm
near Gettysburg, Pa, a long time
ago.
He was little boy then, finding
old English and early American
coins while he played with mud
pies. Now he's president Of the
Washington Numismatic Society,
with q much-envied collection Of
coins.
In those early days, Mr.. Weikert
picked up more than 200 English
coins Of the re-Revolutionary era
and the large American cents that
were used In the late Eighteenth
and early Nineteenth centuries.
Says Mr.. Weikert::
81 just found them lying
around, with the result that I
kept them and put them in q
cigar box. When I was a young
man, gave my collection to the
indianapolis Museum because
they were too heavy to carry
around with me. Some time ago,
/ visited the museum and dis.
covered the collection had been
stolen"
Mr.. Weikert now collects q large
variety of coins, his particular
penchant being for old Roman
coins. Describing his collection,
he says:
"Of all the coins I have, the
ones I like best are those in my
Roman collection. / have q COM
plete set from the reign Of An.
gustuS in 20 b. G. to TheOdOSiuS
in 1896 A. D."
In addition to his coin collection,
Of which he also boasts his COM
plete set Of commemorative, Mr..
Weikert has acquired a complete
set of currency, including the 81
bill Of 1891 which bears a picture
Of Martha Washington, the only
paper money with the portrait
Of Q woman.

TIME EXTENDED
TO JOIN CCC

With enrollments In the CT.
william Conservation Corps in this
area tagging, the War Depart
ment today announced that the
enrolment period, which ended
yesterday, will be continued an
other 10 days.
Less than one-third Of the
quota Of 5000 men In the Third
Corps Area has been signed, it
was said, but 1t Is believed the
number will be reached in the
additional time.
Washington, which was given a
quota Of 422, reported only 50
enhstments and Maryland, with a
quota Of 1900, reported only
about 500 enrolled. Virginia
showed the highest percentage,
with 425 signed out Of total Of
TIT allowed. In Pennsylvania,
where the quota was $500. less
than 1000 have enrolled.
Officers in charge of the en-.
rollment believe the recent floods,
which scattered families from
their homes, has slowed the enroll.
ment.
Men from this vicinity who en-.
roll will be sent to Fort George C,
Meade and go through a course
Of preliminary training before be.
ing assigned to the various camps
in the corps area.

same time to secure q power rate
equally as good as Washington
ianS, Mayor Dawson said:
Alexandra is too far I'D.
Vanced ever to go back to oil
lamps and candles. However,
We are going to see that the
rate Is put ON the same scale
as that enjoyed in Washing
ton, or we will make our power

rate, and still make . profit.

WHEAT VALUES
DROP, CAUTION
GRIPS MARKET
Corn Down, Oats Uneven
in Extremely Dull Trade
Session.
By United Press

BY UntteG Press
CHICAGO, Feb. Is. Caution
and indecision gripped the wheat
trade today, and price changes were
of little Importance in the short
session. At the close wheat was Is
to 4 cent lower; corn was off 4
to 81 cent, and oats were off Is to
up Is cent.
Wheat traders were discouraged
by the small volume of buying and
the light outside interest. Aside
from firmnesS in Liverpool there
was little in the news to stimulate
interest in the market. Encourage
ment from the corn pit also failed
to materialize.
Weather conditions were unfavor-
able, but little changed. Most of
the trade was inclined to await
growing weather before accepting
reports of crop damage. Today's
session in the wheat pit was the
dullest in several days.
Local operators who supported
the corn market yesterday were
discouraged by the dearth of out
side buying, and commission houses
were on the selling side. A leading
cooperative sold May early. Freer
offerings of corn from the country
also had some effect on sentiment.
Oats were quiet, but showed a
firm undertone. Processing inter-
ests bought May and sold Septem-
Der. Rye was inclined to ease.
