Pinkerton, head of the Pinkerton de-

Pinkerton has offered to give bonds

harm anyone.
Pinkerton asks that McKenzie's SEN

Fadgham, in the case of Louis c.

disseminated in It's rates and that
some persons we're forced TO pay
higher rates than others. The court
holds that this discrimination is il!e-
gal and that the rates could not be
raised to new subscribers while the
old contracts were still in effect.
The court gave the company ~ days
to regulate its rates or forfeit its fran.
chise. The company's officials say the
same methods are in effect in every
city and town In Michigan and the de
cision will affect the entire state.

That was when Green got busy.
He had the power 10 investigate. SO.
in the interests OF those folks 70 whom
the size and the price or loaf mean
much. he investigated
He discovered that the retail ven
doris Of bread in this city are making
SC per cent profit on practically every
loaf they sell
With Jhis profit for the retailers,
Green determined 70 find where there
was any margin for the bakers. IL
didn't take him long He began test
ing loaves.
In the first hundred Scent loaves he
weighed, he found that 40 weighed
only 10 ounces instead OF l6 that ~
weighed as much as "a ounces. an
that the balance Of the hundred weigh
cd between 10 and IA ounces
He found that the same proportion
existed in the l0-cent leaves, their
weight running from 90 - 10 @S
ounces. instead OF 80 ounces.
Green discovered also that scent
loaves were sold to retailers at from
% 10 80 loaves for a dollar and thar
several OF the larger bakers sold 80
leaves for dollar.
This meant that short-weight loaves
bought at the rate OF 3G Tor dollar
and sold 10 the poor at the rate OF
5 cents each, brought he retailers
$3.50 or a clear profit Of so per cent
and this after the baker had taken out
his profit.
When Green had found what he was
searching for, he told the people and
the city officials what he had found.
"To a great majority of the people In
our city the size OF a loaf OF bread

Reading. Pa,-Closely following up
the order dispensing with sauerkraut
from the menu of the MONDAY lunch
es served at the boys high school. the
question of rats" worn by the stu
dents at the girls high school in ar
ranging their hair came up for con-
sideration. Recently some of the
girls complained to their parents that
their instructors were not thorough
enough in their explanation of the
lessons Anxious fathers called the
attention of the matter to several of
the controllers. and they in turn
made mention of the matter to Pro-
fessor Charles S. Foos, superintend-
ent of public instruction. After a
thorough examination Superintend-
ent Foos came to the conclusion that
the girls themselves were to blame.
Girls are kept busy shifting their rats
to keep them in position, he says,
and pay so much attention to the ar
rangement of their hair that they do
not hear the instruction given them.

CHARGES 1T UP TO
THE FRISCO QUAKE

Fort Wayne, Ind.-A romance
growing out of the San Francisco
earthquake disaster of April IS, 1906,
will have a fitting ending when Will
liam Campbell a young attorney of
this city arrives in San Francisco to
claim as his bride Miss Gertrude AL

slightly injured when the tremblor

hall, the mems dormitory, with bricks
from a demolished chimney, he escap-
ed from the building.
With Miss Albrecht, Campbell start
ed for san Francisco in an automobile.
The car broke down, and the couple
we're compelled to walk the greater
part of the distance. Late that even
ing they arrived at the home of the
girls mother, Mrs. Lillian Albrecht. 1t
was on this trip that the romance
had its conception.
Campbell left Fort Wayne for the
