gradually.
General Spaatz's new appoint

direction. AS the new airpower

there will be others. BY the time
this war is over, maybe before, the

to attain that end without disrupt

INFORMATION OF
NARY lR0NIN IS
SOUGHT IN NORTH

| CHICAGO, Ill, Nov. 10. Tht
kind of money that talks, somt
~ 000, is calling along the dim ole
gold rush trails of the Yukon fol
Mary Cronin, one-time dance hal
girl who was also known as Molly
or her children, if any.
Mary, who in 1897, followed the
stampede to the north country, in
answer to the lorelei of mining
camp riches, and who would now be
| rs if alive, is wanted to claim the
money as her share of an estate
If she is dead, her descendants leg
ally succeed her to the inheritance.
Went to Klondike
That she or her children are be-
ing sought throughout Alaska and
the Dawson area, to claim the tidy
sum, was revealed today when Wal
ter C. Cox, probate genealogist, 20S
S. LaSalle ST., here, took over the
direction of the search at the request
of attorneys.
Mr.. Cox, who specializes in tracing
family trees and missing relatives
to settle estate, said that the hunt
is confused by the fact that Mary
was never heard from by friends or
relatives after leaving the states "for
the Klondike," and literally disap-
peared into the unknown
What is known about her." Mr..
Cox said, lis not unsimilar to the
story of many of the women who
followed the Alaskan gold rush.
Mary was born in a western state
in about 1870. the daughter OF Dan
iel Cronin and Ellen Roche who
came from Ireland What became
of her father is unknown, but her
mother was a domestic and devout
church member
Dance Hall Girl
. . Mary grew up, bonde, slim and
.blue-eyed, and found her first jobs
in cafes and dance halls where she
began using the name of Molly
Then, at the behest OF her mother,
she left the dance halls and became
a house girl for the family of a
man named Won Guelpen, a music
teacher.
AT about this time, according
to people who knew her family,
she quarreled bitterly with her
mother and the two never made
up. She went to live with the Won
Guelpen family, working as do
mestic by day and as dancing
girl at night.
I'VE are informed by no less than
dozen persons who remember her,
that she soon afterwards, when
about q years old, left for the
Klondike with a man of German
and Jewish descent to dance in a
place which he intended to open.
She was not heard from again in
sofar as we can learn.
If she didn't strike it rich and
is still alive, her poke is waiting
for her here" ~

According to specimens received
at the laboratory Of animal pathol-

swine pox is causing some losses in

Occurrence Of swine pox to any

CAN WE PAY THE BILLS
OF AN IDEALISM

A PROVISION of the peace pro-
gram now being prepared at WASH
ington is to rejuvenate all Of Europe
and Asia, to rebuild all that has
been destroyed by war in both Allied
and Axis countries, with America to
pay the bills. It is worthy ideal
ism, but can we carry the financial
burden? We paid a considerable
share Of World War ], and contribute
ed heavily to the restoration Of both
Allied and enemy countries, but the
cost of that restoration was small as
compared with that to follow this
war. If the American people want to
pay such a bill, we should be telling
our wishes to our congressman at
this time. It will be hard for them
to believe that we wish to do any,
thing Of that kind.

Poultry

There are more chickens in Iowa
than any other state, while Texas
ranks second in chickens and also
leads the turkey population. In 1928,
there were AIS, 600, 900 chickens on
American farms but since then, the
number has declined.
While the great bulk of poultry is
sold alive or as cold storage fowls,
there are a few commercial uses
for by-products. Animal feeding
stuffs are taking some packing house
trimmings such as legs, visceral
fat and heads. Food for pet cats
and dogs uses killing plant offal
to some extent. When research has
gone further, it may be possible to
extract therapeutic products from
glands of chicken heads and recover
gelatine from chicken legs which
would have surgical uses. Scientists
believe that the available supply Of
10000 tons of feathers might be used
in plastics. Goose feathers have
long been marketed for pillow stuff.
ing.
1t is possible now to obtain
dried whole egg, dried egg yolk
and dried egg albumen. These
products are imported but might
be produced here. N0n-f00d uses
Of eggs are getting more at
tention. The tanning industry
may be able to utilize more low
grade eggs. Manufacturers Of
frozen or dried egg materials
have thousands Of pounds Of egg
shells which are used only 10 n
small extent as chicken feed and
fertilizer.
