MOTHERS OF AUSSIE
WAR BRIDES FAVOR
HANDS ACROSS SEA
</P> News Featmes
In almost every s?tate of America,
Australian war briaer, meet regu-.
larly to make and rer <sw friend- |
ships and tc talk of home. These i
gatherings arc both enjoyable and j
helpful.
In Sydney, Australia’s largest city,
Mrs. Myra Bergin thought it would
be a good idea to have mothers of
war brides meet to talk about the r
daughters. This inspiration came to
her a few months ago and it proved
I
...when you
send clothes,
say
"CRAVENETTE"
TOO!
• When you send us a raincoat, top
coat, jacket, suit, or other outer gar
ment, don’t just say “I want it dry
cleaned.” Say “Cravenette,” too. This
will tell us that you also want these
garments treated with “Cravenette’*
water repellents. When you get this
service your garments will protect
you, rain or shine; what’s more they
will keep their shape better and wear
longer. Try this extra service once and
you will want it all the time with these
garments.

so popular that the fortnightly
meetings being held in Sydney now j
are attended by most of the 200
members of the Australian Mothers'
Goodwill Mission Club.
Beneath standards displaying the
names of the states where their
daughters now live in America, the
mothers congregate. Thus friend
ships formed among the young
brides in America are alike formed
among their mothers at home in
Australia.
Mrs. Bergin is a most enthusiastic
president, and with her are Mrs.
M. Condon as honorary secretary
and Mrs. Lynch as honorary trea
surer. Each has a daughter in the
United States. Mrs. Bergin says
that the club , hopes to send groups
of 1C to 12 mothers at a time to
America on goodwill missions for
three-monthly visits.
There is a three-point plan in
all this:
(1) To establish a betier and last
ing friendship between the mothers
of the United States, by personally
presenting the good wishes of the
Australian mother to them.
(2) To assist immigration to
Australia by telling the American
people, particularly the mothers,
about life and the mode of living
in Australia in all phases concern
ing women, such as schooling, social
services, employment organizations
sport and social activities.
(31 To publicize Australian ex
ports, through sponsorships of com
mercial firms.
The club intends to raise funds
to meet the cost of fares by general
appeals to the Federal Government,
commercial firms, philanthropist?
and the general public. The club
is non-political and non-secretarian.
JUDGES RUN STREET CARS
HAMBURG—IIP*—Hamburg's traf
fic courts were slightly understaffed
recently. This was because 20
judges, prosecutors and lawyers
were driving streetcars through the
city's streets. The idea was to
give the judges and prosecutors in
the traffic courts a chance to see
the “other side” of the cases com
ing up for trial before them.
Afterwards, one judge confessed
that he considered himself standing
with one foot in jail half the time
he was driving. The 20 came
through the experiment with a
clean record. They only had two
“small” accidents, officials of the
Hamburg streetcar company said.
The highest point in the U. S.
is Mount Whitney, Calif. It is 14,495
feet in altitude.
Franklin Roosevelt’s first “Fire
side Chat” was on March 12, 1933.

MAN KEEPS IDAHO !
TOWN SHOT UP FOR S
5 HOURS THEN DIES
- I
WALLACE, Idaho, Feb. 16— (£>—'
This little mining town knew very j
little today about the stranger who
kept it in a five-hour uproar of
bullets Wednesday and then died
with a sneer on his face.
One man was killed and two
others wounded by the stranger,)
identified as John Stoddard, 48. j
His first shot struck and killed'
a 33-year-old miner, Gordon Hail- j
stone, shortly before 5 a. m. j
Police used machine guns and'
tear gas bombs to subdue Stoddard
who was holed up in a hardware'
store.
When they finally got to him, i
he was crouched behind a counter ]
in the store amid scores of empty
shells and bullet - ridden mer
chandise.
Police said they believed Stoddard
had been in the district about three
weeks. Papers in his clothing in
dicated he formerly lived in Oak
land, Calif., and was a mfember of
the Culinary Workers Union.
Stoddard, unconscious for most of
the time after his capture, regained
consciousness only long enough to
curse the officers who took him.
Thirty-six persons died when the
dirigible airship, the Hindenburg,
exploded at Lakehurst, N. J., May
-6, 1937.
