BOYCOTT OAKLAND
TRACTION COMPANY
North Berkeley Residents Re-
sent Failure to Improve
Euclid Avenue Line

BERKELEY. Dec. l5.-Angered at
the delays in the installation of ade-
uuate service on the Euclid avenue
line which penetrates the hillside sec
tion Of this city. the members of the
La Iona club have commenced to cir
culate a petition boycotting the street
car line and the Key Route transbay
service The boycott viii be continued
until the betterment Of the service.
Few petitions were put into circu-
lation today, but found numerous
signers who agreed that they would
not ride on the cars of the Oakland
traction company. unless absolutely
necessary, and that they would
patronize the rival line to the Key
Route in the bay service.
The action Of the club comes as a
result of the frequent requests made
for the betterment of the service in
Enclid avenue which is well patron
lied. The line has the Key Route sta
tion as q terminal, winds around the
university campus and runs northward
into the hills
George II. Richa ardson was one of the
members of the club who strongly de-
tion. He declared that the cars were
inadequate and the service poor. The
resolution Of the club placing the ban
on the traction company follows:
Whereas. the Oakland traction com
pany has disregarded the petition of
more than 500 residents of the hillside
district Of Berkeley for an extension
OF the Euclid avenue line,
Vow, therefore, be ii resolved, that
we, the members of the La Iona i'm
provement club of Berkeley, do hereby
pledge ourselves TO refuse to patronize
the Oakland traction company's trans
bay line, known as the Key Route,
and their streetcar service system,
so far as possible, until such time as
we have definite assurances that the
Oakland traction company viii afford
the residents of North Berkeley ade-
Quate transportation facilities by the
extension OF the Euclid avenue car
line.
And we further pledge ourselves to
exert our influence TO the utmost
among our friends and acquaintances
10 induce them TO take the same
course"

GOVERNMENT HELPS
FIGHT WITH RABIES
Virus for Treatment of Persons
Bitten by Mad Dogs Will
Be Furnished

BERKELEY, Dec 15.-That the
federal government has sent word to
the various state boards of health that
it will furnish the necessary virus for
the cure of rabies in human beings
was made known today by DR.. Archi-
bald r. Ward, head of the department
of bacteriology of the university of
California. His announcement last
night that there were genuine cases
of rabies in Pasadena. Los Angeles and
Stockton has attracted much attention
from medical men.
Dr. Ward said that the Pasteur treat
ment, which cures the disease by
inoculation, was advocated by the gov
ernment The material to fight the
rabies successfully, DR.. Ward said, was
easily prepared and has been tried with
success in the east, the treatment being
quite simple.
Dr. Ward said that no additional
cases of rabies had been reported to
him and that he would submit his
statement of cases reported by city
authorities to the state board of health.
He explained that although rabies was
common in the east, number of popu-
lar fallacies regarding the disease have
been disproved by investigation. He
said:
1T is commonly supposed that a dog
or other animal affected with rabies
or hydrophobia, enormously so called,
keeps away from water. This is an
error, but strangely human being bit
ten by dog with the disease actually
does shun water
Rabies in the dog have nothing to
do with the so called dog days nor is
the disease necessarily prevalent with
the heat Heat and cold have nothing
to do with it and cases might spring
up at any time. When a case does
occur immediate precautions must be

Care In Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by its purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi-
nently as perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as it
could possibly be is Quaker Oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest of
all foods. The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem Of removing the husks and black
specks which are 90 annoying when
other brands are eaten. II you are

statue FOR FATHER lERz
St Cloud Tunes Ia his sermon 81
the Cathedral On Sunday, historical
tho diocese 81. st. Cloud, Archbishop
lrelanst paid glowing and merited
tribute to Father Francis Pierz, tho
early missionary priest, who was the
iirst to carry the teachings Of
Christianity into the territory now
embraced within the limits Of the
diocese Of st. Cloud. and who erected
the first house Of worship-a little
hewn leg chapel at Sank Rapids.
Long before the advent Of the white
man, he travelled among the Chippewa
Indians Of northern Minnesota, and
instructed them IN the faith. The
archbishop spoke at length Of the good
misslonary's work, and strongly urged
that it would be appropriate and
suitable to erect q statue IN memory of
Father PierZ. the real founder Of the
diocese, somewhere near the Cathedral.
In private conversation the archbishop
urged the matter, and expressed a
willingness to contribute personally.
He also said he was sure that through
out the diocese priests and lay men
would gladly aid such a project.
The suggestion IS an excellent one,
and If Bishop Trobec will lnaugurate
the movement it will no doubt meet
with hearty and generous response.
