dropped off, or little brother Johnnie
picked the wax off the eyelids, and
sister was consoled by promising
her a new head. Mother took her
to a department store where there
was as large a display OF doll heads
as of dolls. There were china heads,
metal heads, and heads of papier-
mache. There were heads with wigs
and some without. There were those
with parted lips and dainty teeth
showing, while others hid their
smiles behind firm mouths and star
ing eyes.
One thing these varied heads had
in common. Their necks Widened
into four-square bibs front and back
with holes at the corners for apply
ing the needle to the old body. The
bodies in those days were OF cloth,
their inner substance saWdust.
Where now are those torsos that
could withstand endless repairing.
fresh sawdust, and new heads?
They probably found their way to
the attic in time and sister was
promised a whole new doll. Then
her trip to the department store
was a matter of deciding between
a dressed" and an 'undressed
dolly. Mothers preferred the latter
because they would bear closer in
spection as to materials and work
manship. Dolly's clothes were cas-
lily made out of the family scrap-bag
or by the willing hands of the family
seamstress, who did the job for rec
reation. Moreover, the undressed
doll cost a little less. But sister
liked to linger over those in silks
and satins with poke-bonnets and
plumes covering their golden curls.
They wore petticoats and often they
held their fragile fingers in tiny
muffs of mink and sable.

DR. Francis E. Townsend, who has

pension of 5000 a month, may soon
be paid a pension himself by his
rebellious former supporters.
Rep. Charles N Crosby, d. Pa,
today revealed that the Townsend

40 members or the house met Sc
cretly last week to discuss the re-
cent blowup among DR.. Townsend's
lieutenants in Chicago as a re-
suit of his attacks ON the presi-
dents court reform measures.
Besides deciding to organize the
General Welfare federation to push
for enactment on the pension plan,
and thus eliminate the Townsend
name, the committee recommended
that DR.. Townsend and his wife
each be retired on a 5000 monthly
pension as being the original spon-
sor of the old age pension move

HALF MILLION
PAID TO i. S. ON
ELECTRIC BILL.

Boulder dam planned by the
government to pay for itself, Mon
day brought a half million dollars
back to the United States Treasury.
A check for $50O0OO was received
by the Bureau of Reclamation, De-
partment of the Interior, from the
city of Glendale, as an advance
payment on its Boulder dam power
purchase contract
Under the contract, Glendale was
obligated to pay half a million
dollars over a ten-year period with
4 per cent interest as its share OF
the cost of the generating ma
chinery in the Boulder dam power
house which serves four outhern
California municipalities.
Several weeks ago the city asked
Secretary of the Interor Harold 4.
Ickes through John C. Page, Re-
clamation Commissioner, whether
the government would accept an
advance payment. Officials of the
city indicated that funds were on
hand to pay in full at this time,
and were desirouS of obviating the
necessity of payment interest for
ten years.
The object of extending ten years
to the contractors in which to pay
for the machinery was to make it
easier for these to meet the obli-
cations so, of course, Glendale was
informed the advance payment
would be accepted.
With the acceptance of the huge
check, interest on the obligation
was stopped. The money is deposited
in the United States treasury.
The check, drawn by the city
treasurer, was transmitted by ?,
Diederich, superintendent of the
Public Service department, Glen
dale.
The dam is to pay for itself and
with interest in SO years. The main
power revenue contracts became et-

county. from which the victim is
taken. The three senators voting
