The radio station will be used pri-
marily in broadcasting adult educa-
ton programs designed to increase
the standards of living of the people
by stimulating activities through
which the people will work together
to help themselves. The work of the
extension department in organizing
co-operatives has brought rich fruit.
In 1910 there were in the Maritime
provinces $4,000 members of $50 cred

Reference is made to your letter of

any specific quality for the imported

you are advised that section 81
of the tariff act does not specify that
wheat milled Hereunder shall be of
a certain quality, nor does the law
require that the flour resulting from
such milling shall be of a certain

answered in the negative.

Haskell Coffin Artist, Leaps
To Death as Charity Patient
In Hospital After Being Sued for Rent,
Once Highly Paid illustrator Is Suicide

Haskell Coffn, So, once highly
paid illustrator whose art adorned
national magazines, ended his life
today at st. Petersburg, Fla, by
leaping from a third floor window
of hospital where he was charity
patient suffering from melancholia.
A former husband of Frances
Starr, the actress, he had recently
been sued for back rent and had
been removed from his hotel to
the hospital. He was found un-
conscious on the lawn Of the hospi-
tai by attendants, according to the
Associated Press, and died an hour
afterward.
The st. Petersburg coroner termed
the death suicide Attending
physicians said the artist had often
talked of taking his life.
Mr.. Coffin studied at the Corcoran
School of Art and at one time lived
here. The actress to whom he was
once married later became the wife
of r. Golden Donaldson, Washing
ton banker who died in February of
1910. She appeared at the National
Theater this season In Claudia"
and is now in the east Of that show
IN New York.
