-Bartel Resents State
ment of Grosvenor.

An ordinance appropriating $525 for
purchasing two lots at West Fifth and
Lincoln streets as a site for a new
hose house. was introduced in council
last evening. but an effort to have 1t
passed under suspension of the rules
met with defeat. All of the council
men favor the erection of a west side
hose house, but objected to the meth
cd employed in attempting to have the
ordinance passed in one evening.
The ordinance originated with the
board Of public works. which organi-
zation has for the past three years re-
ligiously turned down every proposal
to locate a hose house west Of the
river.
After it had been read by Clery Mer-
rili, Councilman McMahan moved that
1t be passed under suspension OF the
rules. This motion was defeated,
Deuker and McMahan being the only
ones to vote in the affirmative.
6urdsaii Explains.
Burdsall. representing the Eighth
Gated at Fifth and Lincoln streets
would be OF little value to the Eighth
ward, but stated that he favored a
west side hose house He refused tn
vote to push the matter through in one
evening. Bartel was of the same
opinion and wanted to know why suca
hasty action was necessary. Clerx
Merrill. speaking for the board. stated
that short time option had been Sc
cured from Mr.. Peacock, the owner OF
the property.
Mayor Schillinger. in his maiden
speech. stated the administration had
been trying for six months to reac:,
some satisfactory arrangement for
the location of the hose house. He

declared was nearer the center Of the

/ wards than any other lots which coul
i be procured and was also a very good
location because Of the fact that direct
access could be gained to any part G:

New York,s exclusive set, which fills
the golden horseshoe 1t the Metropoi-

of her French and Italian songs Ma

she is a master OF the truest artistic
interpretations. She made Q beauti-

Why We Are Stronger,

The old Greeks and Romans were
great admirers of health and strength;
their pictures and statuary made the
muscles of the men stand out like
cords.
AS a matter of fact we have ath-
letes and strong men-men fed on
fine strength making food such as
Quaker Oats-that would win in any
contest with the old Roman or Greek
champions.
It's matter of food The finest food
for making strength of bone, muscle
and nerve Is fine oatmeal Quaker
Oats is the best because it is pure, no
husks or stems or black specks, Farm
ers' wives are finding that by feeding
the farm hands plentifully on Quaker
Oats they get the best results in work
and economy. If you are convenient
