Press Club To Care
for Tomb of E. A. Poe
BALTIMORE, Md., Apr. 3.—T h e
tomb of Edgar Allan Poe in the
graveyard of Westminster church
here has been placed in the care
of the Baltimore Press Club.
The grave had been neglected of
late because the Edgar Allan Poe As
sociation, which* had been caring for
it, was without funds. An offer by
the Press Club to maintain the tomb
as a literary shrine was accepted,
and a transfer of obligations made
by the Presbyterian Committee of
Baltimore, owners of the burying
ground.

K. of C. Council Explains
Workings of Boy Program
NEW YORK, Apr. 3.—The Su
preme Council of the Knights of Co
lumbus today issued a statement out
lining the organization’s boy program
to correct misapprehensions which
they fear may have arisen from pub
lished reports of the recent annual
convention here of the Big Brother
and Big Sister Federation, Inc. The
statement says:
“The boy program of the Knights
of Columbus was inaugurated at the
direction of the supreme council and
is under the supervision of a special
committee from the supreme board
of directors composed of Martin H.
Carmody, deputy supreme knight,
Grand Rapids, Mich., chairman;
Luke E. Hart, supreme advocate, St.
Louis; George H. Boivin, supreme di
rector, Montreal; Edward Houlihan,
supreme director, Chicago, and John
F. O’Neill, supreme director, Jer
sey City, N. J.
Preliminary to the organization of
units by the various subordinate
councils of the order, courses in boy
guidance were established at Notre
Dame University in the fall of 1924
and 35 fellowships have been award
ed by the Knights of Columbus to
young men from various parts ot
the United States and Canada. The
entire expense of maintaining the
boy life bureau at the headquarters
in New Haven, Conn., and the boy !
guidance course at Notre Dame Uni
versity is being paid by the Knights
of Columbus from its general fund,
and has no relationship to any other
activity of the order or any other
fund under its control.
Recently the Russell Sage Founda
tion investigated the Rockefeller
profit-sharing plan among Colorado
miners and disapproved of certain
of its features. No wit would seem
fitting for the Rockefeller Founda
tion to investigate the Sage outfit. In

If I Had Only
Known
TWO WOMEN went out to buy a certain expen
sive labor-saving device for the home.
One was greatly disappointed when, a few days
later, they compared notes. She had bought the
same product that many of her friends had owned.
The other woman had secured a greatly im
proved, new product—costing less, but of much more
value.
1
“If I had only known there was a better one,”
the first woman said, “I would never have bought
this old one.”
“I had just read about it in an advertisement,”
explained the wise buyer.

Every day you miss good news of an improve
ment in different articles of merchandise—unless
you read our advertisements. They tell you of prac
tically every worth-while invention—of every pro
gress from the old to the new.
Read the advertisements—regularly. Know all
about the thing you are going to buy before you buy
it. It will save you disappointment, money and time.

Mysterious Bronze Cannon
Salvaged By Pacific Diver
*
—
SEATTLE, Apr. 3.—A small bronze
muzzle-loading cannon has been re
covered from Neah Bay at the ocean
entrance of the Strait o! Juan de
Fuc a.
The origin of the find is a mystery.
State historians advance the theory
that the weapon is a relic of a Span
ish occupation in 1790-1792, when
a small band of wreck survivors
lived in an improvised fort above
the bay.
The cannon was recovered by W.
S. Benjamin, a diver of Seattle, who
was working on a sunken Japanese
ship. The gun bears a design indi
cating a man in armor, carrying a i
bow in his right hand and an arrow
in his left. Over his right shoulder
a star is discernible.
John Freschino, 10, New- York, pur
sued a man who had tsabbed his la
ther and after a chase ot several
blocks caused his arrest. The fa
ther will recover.
