Hospital Penny Drive Envelopes
 Are Distributed
Local Campaign Starts in Douglas, Juneau for Se-
 attle Orthopedc

Seattle OrUnupeulc Hospital Pen ny Drive envelopes were delivered throughout Juneau and Douglas yesterday by the hundreds and the local penny campaign, under the d1- rection of Mrs. Frank A. Boyle IS well under way.
 The Penny Drive, started six years ago as a means of raising addl- tional funds for Seattle's famous hospital for crippled children, has been held in Juneau for the last four years and Juneau, like other Alaskan towns that are familiar with the good work of the hospital, has always been generous in its response to the drive.
 The envelopes are left in down town business houses, offices, stores, in places convenient to receive do- nations of pennies, dimes or dol lars from friends of the hospital.
 An average of 90 per cent of the work of the Children's Orthopedic Hospital is charity and its 40 beds are full at all times.
 Many Alaskan children have re- ceived treatment at the famous in stitution and it is with the thought of these patients from the Terri tory that. many Alaskans follow the suggestion on the Penny Drive en- velopes and Open Their Hearts for the crippled children of the Orthopedic.
 Assisting Mrs. Boyle are Mrs. Charles Fox, who has charge of the drive in Douglas, and Miss Elisa beth Kaser who is chairman for the deral-Territorial building
 The Penny Drive envelopes will be collected in ten days.

Big Family, Big Mind, Argument
 Used by Germany

BERLIN, June 8.-Big families produce big men. A nation popu- lated with small families therefore has small chance of developing any great minds.
 Charts have been prepared to show that the later children of a family seem to have a better chance of growing up into famous person. ages than do the first-born or sec- ond born. For instance, it is point ed out, the artist Albrecht Duerer was his mothers third child; Fred erick the Great was the fourth child in his family; Bismarck also was a fourth child Among the great German composers, Bach was last in family of eight children; Wag- her last of nine, and Mozart last Of seven.
