BOOK CAMPAIGN
CLOSES TONIGHT
Citizens Have Only Few Hours Left
To Get Dictionary at Low Price
Times Readers Show Appreciation.

That the readers of The Times
have confidence In what II recon-
mends. Is evidenced by the splendid
manner In which II they have particl-
rated In the educational campaign in
connection with the sale OF the Web
ster Standard Dictionary at riducu-
lously low prices. They have clippuf
thousands OF coupons from the die
uonarg advertisement published In
The Times and presented them at
one OF the three distributing Centers
In exchange for a dictionary, accom-
panied, OF course. by the small price
OF the grade OF book desired.
The hearty manner In which the
readers responded to the Invitation
for them to take advantage OF the OPP
portunity to provide themselves with
one OF the books is a source Of keen
qualification to the publishers, for
they realize that, by causing 50 lerge
a sale, they are doing something to
promote the educational welfare of
the community.
IL is ever a pleasure for The Times
to join In any campaign TO promote
the best interests of the citizens, be
1t plan to get cleaner alleys, abate
the dangers of automobiles in the
streets or cater to the wisdom and
learning OF those who are willing and
anxious to improve their mental
equipment.
The campaign for the distribution
OF the Webster Standard Dictionary,
which has been in operation for some
days, comes to close tonight. II
has been attended with marked sue
cess, the city being literally flooded
with the books. There Is scarcely an
office in town without one OF the
copies, and, as The Times paragraph
er said few days ago, the whole
town seems to be looking up since
the dictionaries made their appear

Those who have not yet provided
themselves with the dictionary will

Speaks to stereotypers' Convention.

James NJ. Lynch, president Of the
International Typographical union;
Robert Glocklin, of the Bookbinders'
union, and II. NJ Kellogg, repI esenta-
tive of the Newspaper Publishers as
ISOLATION, delivered addresses III the
Wednesday afternoon session OF the
International Stereotypers and Elec-
trotypers convention In the Hotel
fuller. Mr.. Lynch argued against
the practice of individual unions
withdrawing from the national bodies,
saying that disagreements in labor
organizations should be settled on
the convention floor.
In commenting on the condition OF
the typographical union, Mr.. Lyrch
said that the union, in spite OF a
strike, which had lasted fouI years
and had robbed the organization of
1000 members, had increased in mem
bership from $4,000 to $4,000 in the
last 10 years, and that the earnings
OF the members were now greater

SMITH KICKS
ON ALLEY GRAB
Says Council Has No Right To Make
Gift To David Stott-Recon-
sideration Filed.

On the protest OF former Police Com
missioner Smith, attorney for parties
who desire the opening OF Howard-st.
through TO Michigan-ave., Aid. Maurice
Heating. Thursday morning. filed a
notice of reconsideration OF the reso-
luton adopted Tuesday night for the
vacation OF 20-foot alley across tho
property at the southwest corner OF
Michigan-ave. and Wayne-st., recently
purchased by David Stott.
Attorney Smith appeared before the
street opening committee, Thursday,
and expressed dissatisfaction that the
resolution should have gone through
the committee without his being pres
emit.
Many OF his clients were present
when the matter has taken up last
Monday, but were deferred from any
vigorous expression by the suggestion
that the assessment district would not
be extended beyond Fourteenth-ave.
1t Is Attorney Smiths contention that
the cost should be distributed as far
west as the boulevard.
After the residents had left, the
resolution to vacate the alley, which
is an extension of Howard-st., for Mr..
Stott's benefit, was approved, and 1t
went through the council without OPP
position.
Smith told members OF the commit
tee, Thursday, that no notice OF the
meeting last Monday reached him. A
notice which was said to have been
mailed did not reach his Office, and
when some one tenephoned. after the
meeting had commenced, he was out Of
town. He declared that he had not
been used properly and expressed the
wish that some member OF the COM
mittee file a reconsideration. Acting
Chairman Vernon suggested that At
torney Smith and Attorney Arthur
O'Connor, representing Mr.. Stott, he
heard as to the advisability Of re-
consideration, but Mr.. Smith declined
to make any argument until meeting
Of the committee at which notice had
been given.
After the meeting was over Attor-
ney Smith made some tart remarks
about the wisdom OF giving to a pri-
vate individual 20-foot strip Of land,
abutting property held at $4,000.
He said that several aldermen had
offered to file reconsideration.

and sports has been arranged for the
afternoon. baseball game being the
big event.
One feature OF the outing that ap.
pealed strongly to the excursion was
the fact that no one was obliged to
carry a lunch. Paul Kobe catered.
and he provided more than an abund-
ance of sandwiches and other things
that go with picnics. There will be
dancing on deck on the return trip,
Thursday evening.

What Health
Specialists Say

The first warm days of spring al
ways bring hurried demands from
householders for that great necessity
OF town and city life, Ice. The local
Ice men are prepared to supply all
orders. As to the quality, az that is
particularly interesting to the heads
OF households where ice is used free
ly in drinking water, It 10 a satisiac-
ton to the dealers in natural ice to
be able to assure the public on the
very highest authorities in public
health and scientific circles in this
country, that there is no danger pos
sible from the use of their ice for al
domestic purposes.
For instance. In a recent address
DR.. H.. w. Hilb OF the Minnesota
State Board of Health, said that. af.
ter investigating thousands Of cpl
denies of typhoid fever and dysen-
terry, he had entirely eliminated ma
tural Ice as a source of disease,
for he had never found a single case
traceable to the use OF natural Ice.
He now declines to consider leo as a
factor in causing disease and devotss
his time to other possible causes.
And DR.. William T. Sedgwick Of the
Massachusetts, Institute OF Technolo-
ogy, at Boston, Americas leading san
itarian, In lecture last fall declared
he had long used natural ice I'm drink
ing water for his own family, being
convinced II could not cause any dis
ease, but that on the contrary iced

gentle and effective stimulant of high
value In combating the physical ex-
haustion occasioned by torrid wealth
er. He also said of natural Zee that
taken by and large II IL one of the
purest food materials of our time!"
These opinions are backed by the
results of recent Investigations of the
effect OF freezing on bacteria which
may be present in water DIR. e. o.
Jordan, professor of bacterioiosy in
Chicago university, In summing up
the question says: The great major
ity of typhoid bacilli perish within q
short time. All Investigators are now
agreed that three weeks after freez-
ing less than one per cent, and prob
ably less than one-half Of one per
cent remain alive" None OF the ma
tural ice offered the public nov las

most OF II has been stored for SIX to
eight weeks, when. according 10 Dr.
Eugene II. Porter. health commission
er OF New York state, the last bec-
terra is dead aud the Ice practically

The conclusions OF these eminent
men that natural ice IL not a possible
source OF danger to public health Is
OF vital interest to the people In this
community, where. owing to our long
warm summers, with many intensely
hot spells, the fear of using natural
ice freely in water, tea and other
iced drinks, would cause neediCss dis

thousands of people.
