Reviewing the records in his of fice that mark the trend of new business ventures, Mr. Wade found ■and declared that the state has just completed a healthy fiscal year. Using charters and capital stock as barometers, he held that more money is being put into new busi ness ventures, indicating that "fear is becoming a thing of the past in these Rooseveltian days.” Although the total increase in the number of new concerns char tered by Mr. Wade was only 20 he pointed out that the gain was steady in the last two six-month periods, and bodes well for the fu ture. There were 910 new charters in the fiscal year 1932-33, and in 1933-34 there were 935. Howev er, during the first six months of 193 3 there were 445 new charters. During the last six months, there were 45 8. And through the first such pe riod of 1934, there were 477, a steady gain. Although figures were not avail able on the amount of stock sub scribed, the authorized capital stock of the new concerns stood at $48,662,138 the past fiscal year, or a gain of $8,5 5 5,398 over the $40, 10 ,740 in the fiscal year 1932-33. Both of the six-month periods for the fiscal year, which ended June 30, showed increases of ap proximately $4,000,000 over the previous corresponding periods. "Everybody is in better spirit. The 'New Deal’ is providing every one with a better hand,’’ Mr. Wade declared.

Y.—Plans to cast soon a new 200-inch telescope mir ror, a twin of the world’s greatest "eye” which was poured here last March, were announced today by the Corning Glass Works. Although the new mirror is planned as a substitute for the first, it means tliat astronomy will have available two of these cyclopean "eyes,” each capable of seeing four times farther into space than the present telescope, the 100-inch at Mt. Wilson, California. It was decided to cast the second "eye” because it has been found that it will take about as milch work to complete the first mirror as to make an entirely new mirror. Accordingly the observatory council of the California Institute of Thechnology, which will build the mammoth telescope, and the re search and development department of the Corning Glass Works agreed that a new disc be cast .and that the present disc be further process ed to have an available mirror in re serve and to test procedure to as sure success for the new disc. GOOD MORNING j: -ji THE SONG OF A SHIRT During the World War when prices of everything went sky- i high, Representative Kitchen, of j North Carolina, said in the House; that while many men were paying' outrageous prices for shirts, it was not at all necessary, and that he i himself wore $1.50 shirts.

Davis, Am erica’s "ambassador at large,’’ de-; dared today. Davis has just returned from dis cussions in London preliminary con ference. Davis said Europe was full of very serious political disturbances but that all were localized. B : GIRLS ARE CLEVER If a check were'rfiade of the 4-H girls who are wearing some very smart outfits when they go places it would surprise a lot of people to know these same outfits were made of very inexpensive materials. It might be a mild shock to some to learn these outfits were even made ’ of materials which no one would have thought of saving in our past periods of prosperity — materials such as old feed sacks, fertilizer bags and garments which had hung in the attic for a generation. In Kent county, Michigan, a young lady came to a clothing pro ject meeting with a piece of black broadcloth which had an interest ing history. This young lady’s grandmother purchased the cloth back in 1893 to make a dress to wear to the world’s fair in Chicago. But the hard times which fell on the country made it impossible to go and the materials was stored away. Now it is to be made into a coat for the owner to be worn to this year’s world’s fair in Chi cago. In Pennsylvania the club folks have some interesting figures of what the girls have done-with'waste: materials. Some 850 garments were made from flour sacks and burlap bags last year, reports Miss Har mony Stewart in charge of exten sion activities at State College for club members. Some of the gar ments were made without any ac tual cash expenditures. Miss Clara Syphrit of Jefferson county spent as little as 20 cents for bright but tons and dye, and when she com pleted her dress it was comparable to those selling in smart New York shops for $27, her club leaders stat ed. It is not the purpose of club pro jects to induce girls to use such materials if they can afford better, but by their use many girls have been able to make garments requir have been able to do if they had had to purchase new materials.
