WILLIAM H. QXLLE8PIE, Attorney. ADVANCEMENT IN SCOUT RANK FOR MANYLOCALBOYS Tbe Decorator's Letter Box EXPERT ADVICE ON BOMB BECOBATIOBI THEO. ROOSEVELT By HARRY FERGUSON, (United Press Staff Correspondent.) Philadelphia, May 22. A man of the Theodore Roosevelt school, once Governor Gilford Pinchot looked forward today to the honor of being Chief Executive of the second State the country.

Friends of Pinchot say It is typical of him that he should have started his campaign this year by alienating three powerful factions in Pennsylvania poll-tics: He scorned the power of the Vara machine in Philadelphia, taking delight in referring to it as "a gang." Be breathed defiance at the opponents of prohibition by announcing he would be "drier than ever" if nominated and elected. He brought down upon himself the opposition of the Mellon political machine in Pittsburgh by de manding abolition of the Public Ber- I vice Commission. Pinchot was schooled in the rigorous campaign methods of Theodore Roosevelt and his stumping of the State was typically Rooseveltian. Just back from a yacht trip to Southern waters, bronzed and moving with a quick, alert step despite his 65 years, Pinchot stormed through the State, refusing to straddle any issue and placing his poli tical fate squarely up to the people. An automobile would halt in the main street of a hamlet high up in the Pennsylvania hills.

A man with drooping mustache and a wide-brimmed black hat would swing out of the car and a crowd would gather. Whether there were five or 500 persons there, Pinchot would talk to them and in their own language. He was equally at home on a plat form in a metropolitan auditorium. Born at Slmsbury, Conn, Pinchot was educated at Phllllps-Exeter Academy and Yale University All his life he has been interested in forestry and spent several months in France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria, studying that subject His reputation as a forester led to his appointment to the National Forestry Commission and he subse quently became chief forester of the United States In November, 1923, Pinchot was elected Governor of Pennsylvania He startled the State by announcing every member of his Cabinet would have to make a personal pledge to him to obey the prohibition law in its strictest interpretation. Pinchot essayed to enter the United States Senate by running for the Republican nomination in 1926.

He was defeated by William S. Vare. In this year's primary Plnchot's chief opponent for the Gubernatorial nomination was Francis Shunk Brown, who was called by his opponents "the mid-Victorian" candidate. Brown declined throughout his campaign to mention Pinchot by name. Pinchot named Brown often; he also named Vare and every other opponent.

His outspoken qualities caused him to lose votes In the City of Philadelphia where Vare's machine Is all powerful but it also earned for him the ballots of those voters back In the hills who remembered the day that "Glff" Pinchot came through their towns in his automobile and stopped to make a speech. BUSINESS IN TO BATTLE SALE OF FUBIILENT STOCK Washington, May 22. A drive to put the fraudulent stock salesman cut of business and protect the "sucker list" from Its present annual losses of between 8500,000,000 and $1,500,000,000 as variously estimated was begun by a group of business men meeting here today under the auspices of the United States Chamber of Commerce. One of the first suggestions made to the conference was the creation of local Investors protective committees to scan stock offerings and report on their validity. His plan has worked well in Rochester, N.

the conference was told. Increased co-operation between local business bodies likewise was urged as one deterrent to those woh seek riches by imposing on public unfamlliarity with the thousands of unreliable stocks circulated each year. "The need of the moment in checking securities frauds, which are costing the public many millions annually, Is more effective said Henry R. Hayes, of New York. "The States are dealing with the local aspects of the problem, but the national aspects must be dealt with by the national business and private organizations in co-operation with the Federal authorities." SECOND CHOICE FINAL AT ROMAN TONIGHT "Second Choice" gives Dolores Cos-tello a chance to play the part of a girl of the Jazz age a girl, after all, with the feminine traits which no change of mannerism nor costuming can alter.

"Second Choice" presents the eter nal triangle though with a thrilling difference and the course of true love runs anything but smoothly. A hasty marriage between the heroine Jilted by the man she really loves and a Jilted youth starts the machinery of romance which times verges on the tragic, and through all is the moan of the saxes and the razzle dazzle of Jasz. Chester Morris and Jack Mulhall are convincing as rival lovers and to lighten the scene, Jimmy Clemmons, beloved of the vaudevlll stage, does some ludicrous antics a la John Barleycorn. Dolores sings charmingly the theme song, "Life Can Be So Lonesome." Use the Classified XwpartnMat Sat Quick Beoults, cnsrgea lor Dining ana couecuuu.

DURYEA SCHOOL TAX MTLLAGE OUT FROM 42 TO 4t Important action of much Interest to every taxpayer in the borough wat taken at last evening's meeting of the Duryea School Board. The budget of receipts and expenditures for the school year 1930-31 was presented by the committee and was adopted by a vote of four to two. The directors voting for the budget were Messrs. Davis, Kramer, O'Brien and Pawloski, -while Directors Fudala and Winn voted against adopting the budget.

Director Horvat was absent on account of Illness. Included in the budget was the fixing of the tax levy lor the ensuing year. The levy was 42 mills last year, and the fcudget for the new year cuts It down 2 mills, making It 40. Taxpayers very generally believe this Is a move in the right direction, as the millage has been exceptionally high, compared with other districts. A levy of 42 mills, divided Into 25 mills for general purposes and 37 mills permitted by court as a special levy, has been collected In the past.

The special levy of 17 mills will be continued and the general purposes levy of 25 mills reduced to 23 mills. The 5 per capita tax was retained. The budget presented by the finance committee last evening, with the levy was as follows: General control, for Instruction $133,620, which Includes salaries and supplies; fixed charges, operation of maintainance of plant, capital outlay, auxiliary and sundries debt service total $231,325.27. Hugh Davis, who served as treasurer last year, was re-elected for another year, the term beginning July 1. Another stroke of economy adopted by the board was in connection with Mnmlencement exerclse8.

In re cent years the Duryea High School commencement exercises have been held In Plttston, on account of there being no suitable auditorium In Duryea, and the cost has been In the neighborhood of $200. The directors find It possible to secure the Old Forge High School auditorium for the commencement exercises free of charge, and they have decided to hold the ex-, erciaes there, the date being June 17th. It is hoped to save most of the $200 heretofore spent on commencement arrangements. Charles Hosner, Charles Lyman, Robert Hastle and Victor Padlllck have returned home after, spending the week-end in Philadelphia and Atlantic City. The young men are members of the Senior Class of Duryea High School.

It Is usually quite simple to carry out your color scheme, whatever it may be, In one of these rues. For a room In which brown, blue, and orange were the colors used, a nig of tan and blue would fit perfectly.

I believe we talked about a blue, brown and buff scheme for one of your rooms, ir you used those colors you would, I know, get a brown rug with a dull buff border. For the kitchen and bathroom and even for the hall and sometimes for the dining room, there are linoleums in every possible combination of colors and in almost endless variety of patterns. This floor covering material came out of the kitchen long ago and is now at home in a great many rooms. It Is especially good in the hall where much coming and going gives the floor covering there very hard wear. It is so easy to keep clean and that probably accounts for its popularity.

I'm sure you won't object to having in your house a thing easy to take care of, any more more than I do. Let me know what was finally decided about your floors. Fondly, Fern Eture.

Beth dear: Of course, there are a lot of other possibilities for your floors that 1 did not include In the other letter about them. Tou can do almost anything you please with floors IP you Just remember they are the foundation of the decoration scheme.

For the bedroom furnished in early American you might use hooked rugs. I remember that you have several very pretty ones and If you plan an early American or colonial bedroom you might build the color scheme around them. The patterns are quaint and attractive1 and they will look very well on a nicely polished but not shiny-floor. Flam color draperies and an Inconspicuous figured wall paper would do well with them. Another choice for that room would be linen woven rugs.

These are not expensive and they wear splendidly. Domestic orientals are now being made In patterns and colors Just like the Imported rugs. Because of their beautiful colors they offer an especially good chance to get in some good effects in color and pattern on the floor. Then, too, there are chenilles, AUTO AND MILK WAGON COLLIDE IN DUPONT A Chevrolet coupe, driven by Ambrose Conlon, of Springbrook avenue, Moosic, and a Woodlawn Farm Dairy Company wagon, having as Its driver, Francis E.
