Receives Reward
Dorothy Ann Seida, daughter of
! Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Seida of Denver,
‘ Colo., and granddaughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Walter Smith of Idetown, re-
ceived national recognition recently
when she was elected first girl member
of the Honor Club sponsored by Cen-
tral Bank & Trust Company of Denver.
Dorothy, whose mother, the former
Lydia Smith of Idetown, was a Leh-
man High School teacher for four
years, won membership in the Club
because she found : and returned a
purse containing $160 to its owner
who had dropped it
out of a taxi cab. Dorothy found
the purse as she walked home from
St. Catherine's school where she is
a second grade pupil”
For her honesty and courtesy she
received a $5 award and a one-year
activity ticket in the Denver Y.W.-
C.A. She also appeared on a radio
program. Although she is the only
girl and the youngest of the club's
sixteen members, she found the second
largest sum of money:
After her election she was surprised
when a Boston lady sent her “Con-
gratulations, darling” and a copy of
the Christian Science Monitor contain-
ing her picture and a feature article
“Denver Children Find Honesty
Pays.” Dorothy's picture also appeared
in a National banking magazine. *
The Denver Honor Award Club
originated when Rodney Poole, 13,
an orphan who lives in Colorado's
hunted until he found the owner.
The spectacle of a child sdazzled;
by more money than he had ever
seen, doggedly tracing down the! per-
son who'd lost it struck T. Arthur
Williams, assistant cashier of Denver's
Central Bank & Trust Company and
head of the bank's unofficial Depart-
ment of Finding Unusual People and
Doing Something About It.
Mr. Williams didn’t expect the club
to grow very fast but it has fooled
him. Children began finding and re-
turning wallets, purses and valuable
papers all over the place and popping;
up for awards. The rules were made,
pretty strict. The valuables found
and returned must contain currency
or coin.

Dorothy's grandmother is very
proud of her little granddaughter who

she was elected to the Honor Club.
She regrets only two things: that
Dorothy is so far away—she moved
to Denver about two years ago—and
that she can't attend Lehman schools
where all of grandmother Smith's
seven children ‘except Katherine, in
first year high, have graduated.
Alice, now Mrs. George Smith of
Wilkes-Barre, was the first to gradu-
ate and then attended Wilkes-Barre
Business College; then Dorothy's
mother, Lydia, after graduation atten-
ded Blomsburg State Teachers’ Col-
lege and’ became a teacher. = Then

Williams. “Money is different. Every,
child understands money. It takes
real stamina for a child to turn back

Lehman schools; Kenneth, Berne, Pa.,

tending college; Naomi, at home, and

Third Daughter Is Born)
Sixth Girvan Son Is In Floor
Covering Business In Alaska
Mr." and Mrs. John Girvan, Lake
Street, have reason to be proud of
their sons—and daughters, too—but
they are especially proud to have had
six sons follow in the footsteps of
their father in the floor covering
business in all parts of the world.
John A. Girvan, the daddy of them
all, has been laying carpet and lino-
leum for fortytwo years having learned
his trade with William “Billy’ Britt,
known to all leading citizens of Wyo
ming Valley. He was the father of
Mrs. Girvan.
Of the Girvan sons, John W. is in
the carpet and linoleum business in
Portland, Oregon; Francis is located
in Kingston, and Robert, who was
killed in Italy during the late war,
followed the floor covering business
for one and a half years in Puerto
Rico, installing tile in the govern:
ment barracks, before he entered the
service.
Joseph is in business in Norristown,
Pa., and Thomas is employed by his
brother John in Portland. About two
months ago, Billy, the sixth son, de-
cided he needed a change and took
a trip to Oregon to visit his two bro-
thers. He was there only a few weeks
when he received a contract to put
down linoleum and tile in Fairbanks,
Alaska. The Alaska Floor Covering
Company paid his plane fare. After
eight hours he arrived in Fairbanks.
«He wrote his mother this week,
“Mom, they like my work up here
and I am going to show them the
good work a Girvan can do.”
Billy Britt might well be proud of
his’ grandsons. He came from Wil-
mington, Del., to Wilkes-Barre when
he was a young man and was one
of the first carpet and linoleum men
in the community. He was employed
by Orr's Fair located on East Market
street until he went in business for
himself.
It really looks as though the Gir-
van's will be covering floors for many
years to come since Francis has four
young sons who are anxious to follow
in the footsteps of great-grandpa Britt,
grandpa Girvan and pop. |
John Leidinger is back in
the repairing of harness, bags,
golf bags, and everything in
leather; also zippers put in
and repaired.

PRING is on the way—and you'r
a thorough house-cleaning. But
e probably planning once again for
after you've scrubbed and cleaned
every nook and cranny, and every wall and floor and piece of furniture
is sparkling, what next? What more can you do to bring spring into
First of all, down will
come the winter drapes
and curtains —and up
will go light and airy
bits of fluff in keeping
with sunny days and
balmy breezes. If you
desire simplicity in your
curtains, make them of
cotton nets, organdy,
voile, marquisette, dot-
ted swiss or batiste.
But if you desire ele-
gance, make them of
pinon, lace, fine net,
chiffon, point d’esprit or
embroidered organdy.
There «are several
ways you can decorate
your floors, if you take
up your rugs for the
summer months. Lino-
leum or tile floors are
practical and colorful in
all rooms and you can
always use scatter rugs
at various points. These
floorings come in such
binations and designs
that today no floor need ever be
guilty of drabness. Or you can use
full size fibre rugs in cool colors
to replace your winter rugs.
Now for another way to take up
the bright garment of spring. Slip-
covers are a year ‘round investment
because once you see how they re-
juvenate old or worn furniture.
you'll keep them on all year. Some
of the most popular materials for
slip covers are chintz, corduroy,
cretonne, gabardine, homespun, per-
cale, twill and denim. It's wise to
buy pre-shrunk material and then
you'll have no trouble ‘» washing
or dry-cleaning your covers when-
ever necessary. Slip cover smart-
ness is within the scope of every
budget if you make your own—and
you can do this easily if you follow
directions.
SES
If you would like to try your hand
at making some; you'll be interested
in the leaflet we are offering today.
Once you discover how easy they
are to make, you'll decide that no
chair should be without one. This
leaflet includes directions for slip
covers for side chairs. These chairs
take on an important look dressed
in floor length slip covers with
pleated or ruffled skirts. Simpler
covers—small ones for a dining
room chair back and seat—greatly
improve the appearance of a room
and increase the durability of your
chairs. If you would like to receive
this leaflet, just send a stamped.
