THREE GRAVEL ROADS
Petition for Them to Be Pre-
sented to County Board
Next Week.
OPPOSITION is PROMISED
THREE GRAVEL ROADS

THREE GRAVEL ROADS
The board of Wayne county COM
missioners will meet one week from to-
morrow and it is understood that at
least two and possibly three petitions
for gravel roads will be filed.
One OF them will come from Abing-
ton township, it is asserted. and it
will be followed by a remonstrance
from citizens who are opposed TO the
Improvement because of the belief that
the tax rate will be greatly increased.
The fact that Washington township is
bearing the burden of 11-cents tax
increase on account of single gravel
road has not made the road law par
ticularly popular. especially in the
smaller townships.
The opinion prevails however. that
there will be no opposition to the i'm
provement of the National road west
of the city. the petition for which will
be among those presented to the COM
missioners next week. That the i'm
provement is badly needed all admit
and the cost will not be such that the
tax rate in the township will be in
creased more than one or two cents on
the 500 valuation.

BEEF PROBE TO
REACH THE FACTS
The Federal Grand Jury to
Strike Main Trail This
Week.
AFTER THE "BIG" MEN
ONES WHOM GOVERNMENT
SEEKS TO PUNISH FOR RAILS
ING FOOD PRICES.
(American News Service)


Chicago, Jan. 20.-When the federal
grand jury meets Monday morning it
will proceed upon the main track of
the beef combine inquiry with all rou-
tine matters disposed of. Within
three weeks indictments are expected
involving at least four Of the heads of
the packing companies allied with the
National Packing company. Develop
ments today made the announcement
authoritative that the government in
the present inquiry will pass over ev-
eryone except the real heads of the al
legged combine in the effort to indict
tn persons responsible for the alleged
combine.
Many Employees Summoned.
Every employee that is thought to
possess information of value to the
inquistors will be subpoenaed. But
the heads of the combination-the ben
eficiarie5 of the beef trusts owners
will not be given anything resem-
bling an immunity bath this time.
The Investigators have discovered
that their work has been made all the
more difficult by an elaborate system
of concenlment in effect in the offices
of the packing companies. OF late
years, since the agitation against high
prices aid the beef trust it is declared
as much effort has been put forward in
suppressing evidence of a combine as
has been expended in perfecting the
combination.
Crews First Witness.
This elaborate system has made the
ramifications of the beef trust all the
more difficult to follow and the inquiry
is proceeding slowly, but with the GER
tainty that is the result of the previous
experiences with the combination.
Monday it is expected that Ralph
Crews, general counsel for the Nation
al Packing Company. will be the first
witness. He testified yesterday aft
ernoon, but he did not have the papers
that the grand jury wanted to scruti-
niZe.

A DINNER COURSE
FOR FAIR GOODS
Girls at the Kansas AgricuItur-
al College to Study
Cooking.
ECONOMY AS THE BASIS
THEY WILL BE COMPELLED, IN
THE COURSE OF STUDY, TO
MAKE FOUR DOLLARS COVER
FOUR MEALS EXPENSE.

Manhattan, kas.. Jan. 2H.-The din
ner work carried on at the Agricultu-
raj college is one OF the most instruct
i've studies offered 10 young women
anywhere in the United States. Nine
ty-siX now are taking the domestic SCI
ence short course. They are divided
into three groups of thirty-two each
crops Of four. each group consisting
OF cook. assistant cook. dishwasher
and waitress.
The cook is in charge of the group.
and as each girl holds her position one
week and the crop works four weeks
each gets a chance to be in charge of
the operation. There are eight small
kitchens on two sides of large CEN
trail dining room in which are eight
tables, one for each group.
Four Dollars Is Basis.
At the beginning of each week the
new cook is given 81 with which she
is to furnish five meals for four per-
sons, planning her meals under the SUI
pervision of the instructor, Miss
Grace Woodward. The five meals
consist of one three course dinner, two
three course luncheCns. one five course
dinner and one five course luncheon.
These meals are served at noon on reg
ular college days.
Members of the faculty are the lucky
one who get to eat OF these beasts, and
the fact that some have been on the
waiting list for a year before getting
place shows that it is not cOnsid Tered
like a chance on a government poison
squad"
The aim of the work is to give the
young women practical knowledge of
the preparing of meals in a simple
dainty manner, and also to acquaint
them with the cost and the buying of
foOdstuffs. Each cook has her own
account book in which she keeps rec
ord of all cash supplies and depart
ment supplies made. BY department
supplies is meant the staples kept in
the StOrerOOm.
The storeroom is under the charge
of an instructor. with whom the cooks
settle every morning for supplies used
the day before. Each afternoon the
cook goes down town to market.
The Kitchens are equipped with chi
ma. siker, and cooking utensils for
servingrfou persons. Also utensil
cabinet, china and linen cabinet, por-
celain sink, gas range and a work ia
BILE.
Course Is Self-Supporting.
1t is self-supporting course. The
faculty members pay $1.2o week each
The 81 coming from the table goes &c
the cook, while the remaining dollar
pays for table laundry. ice etc. This
allows two table cloths, eight napkins
two center pieces for the table. and
two tray doilies. The table decorations
come out of the 81.
The competition between the eight
kitchens seem to be to see who can
serve the best and daintist meals with
in the 81 limit. The final results show
a range of from S3.1., to 81 for the cost
of the week The money not spent is
returned to the department.

Night.
ALLISON WAS THE STAR

In a very fast and exciting game
the Richmond High School basket ball
team last night defeated the strong
Union City team at the "Y'' gym. The
local boys played fast. clean game
and won because of their superior
team work. Every man on the local
team was responsible for the victory.
Criticism might be made on the work
too much individual play During the
first period Murray was the only man
that showed any class, making s
points, one field and foul goals. For
the locals, Allison was everywhere,
making fields and fouls, while Fer.
ling and Hasemeier each contributed
one field. During the second half
Murray made three fields and one foul
goal. while Washer at center contrib
uted three fields. For Richmond Tag
CART came in with his share making
four pretty baskets from the field, and
Allison made two difficult shots. Has
