"STARVE THE FLY| BETTER
Civic Association Hears That's
the Real Remedy.

Baltimore. Nov. 0.-In presenting the
report of the hy fighting committee OF
the American Civic Association to-day
Edward Hatch jrr the chairman eH-
messed the hope that there may be no
more fly killing contests. This sentiment
took the assembled fly fighters by sur
prise, which was dissipated' however
when Mr. Hatch said:
I'VE cannot insist too much or too
often upon cleanliness as the beginning
middle and end Of the fly fighting cam
paign. Swat the fly" as a slogan must
give way to 'Starve the fly! The latter
is more euphonious and Infinitely more
practical"
Mr. Hatch said the committee was able
TO report the most successful years Work
since the inauguration of the popular
movement looking to the determination
of the house fly in 1908. He said the
campaign was becoming world wide,
The committee reported that in cities in
which substantial cash prizes were
awarded in no case did the number OF
flies killed in a campaign exceed the
number which could easily have been
reared from an average sized pile OF
stable refuse in d few weeks. II was
argued that greater results might be OBJ
tained by conducting campaigns against
dirty stables and back yards, garbage
heaps and dumps and all places that pro-
duce files and supply them with infection.
James Bryce, ambassador Of Great
Britain, in an address tonight advocated
strongly the proposed national forest re-
serve between Baltimore and Washing
ton. Mr.. Bryce spoke on the general
topic, National Parks-The Need Of the
Future" Vast as is the United States,
he said, it is moving toward that state of
dense population which now constitutes
| one Of the big problems Of Europe. He
suggested that an additional park should
be set aside in the Rockies, and that one
should be established in the Southern
Alleghanies He deplored the lessening
Of the beauty of Niagara Falls by the
detection of its waters for commercial
power, but predicted that in the near
future the "defacing adjuncts of COM
| merce would be abolished and the pris-
tine beauty of the falls restored"

1t was the opinion OF the officials OF the
association that the present activity was
having an excellent effect upon business
in general throughout the city. This, they
maintained, had been the experience OF
other cities which had similar organiZa-
tlons. The officials also pointed out that
the moving Of the association headquar-
tiers to the woolworth Building would In
fuence a large number Of business men
who have so far held sloof from the as
ISOLATION TO become members.
"The merchants Of New York are not

Of the association yesterday. They are
on the walk and they expect soon to
have the citizens Of this town on the
run The association has a committee
on streets. Every citizen is interested In
clean streets, and when this campaign is
over there will be some knowledge on this
subject and probably some communication
TO the Department Of Street Cleaning"
Mr.. Breed denied that there was any
rivalry between the Chamber Of Com

ELEVATORS STIR QUEENS
Proposed Addition to Queens
boro Bridge Fought by Mfrs.

Automobile manufacturers who are
spending millions of dollars developing
plants near the Long Island side OF the
greensboro Bridge are enlisted In the
fight against the elevators which II Is
planned TO install In the centre OF the
structure.
A campaign has been started by the
Queens Chamber of Commerce to protest
against the use of the roadway for such
a purpose
According TO figures given out by the
chamber, the present width Of the drive
way of the bridge is 53lt feet. Trolley
tracks run on either side OF this drive
way and cars take up 81 feet on either
side. thus leaving a free passageway OF
So feet for vehicular traffic. II Is said
the proposed elevator shaft is 10 be II
feet wide and % feet long. and, not al
lowing for a rail around this shaft, II will
allow but 10i5 feet passageway on either
side of the elevator shaft
The purpose Of the proposed elevator Is
TO benefit the ambulance service TO
Blackwelrs Island, and the plan has the
Endorsement OF Charities Commissioner
Patrick X whitney. and II Is said that
Bridge Commissioner O'Keeffe also IA
vors the project. By spending s107, 900 to
install the proposed elevator the boat that
now runs 10 Blackwell's Island could be
discontinued.

Andrew Carnegie Adds to
Funds of Foundation.

The seventh annual meeting or the
trustees OF the Carnegie Foundation for
the Advancement of Teaching, was held
yesterday morning at the Offices of the
Foundation. No. 576 Fifth avenue. Re-
ports Of the president, DR.. Henry 3
Pritchett: the treasurer and. the execu-
tive committee were received. 1t was an
nounceG that forty-eight pensions and re-
trement allowances were granted during
the year. making a total of three hundred
and ninety-eight now IN force at an an
nual expenditure of $4,000. William f.
Slocum, president of Colorado College
was elected to the vice-chairmanship or
the board OF trustees to fill the place OF

The endowments of the Foundation now
amount to $l4,OoO,OOO, Mr.. Carnegie hav-
ing added 10000 since the meeting Of
the trustees a year ago. The Foundation
was created with fund OF $l0,cOoWo,
and a promise of $4,000 more from Mr..
Carnegie when It was needed. The gilt
announced yesterday makes three or the
additional five million, for during the
first years OF the foundations existence
II managed to save 81, 100000 OF its income.
The matter of the request made by
Woodrow Wilson for a pension In 1913
was revived yesterday by letter written
to morning paper by Professor Dickin-
son s. Miller, of Columbia University
in which he said the Foundation had
acted unjusty In refusing to grant 1t, and
that II should be taken up at the annual
meeting No action was taken, however
at the business session. According to
Clyde Furst, secretary OF the Founda-
ton, the matter was closed two years
ago and there was no necessity OF recon-
sidering It, DR.. Pritchett and President
Hadley of Yale reaffirmed Mr.. Fursts
statements and said that Professor Miller.
while probably acting with the best OF
Intentions, was mistaken in the construc-
ton he placed upon the rules Of the
Foundation.

ART LADYS Jaw FELL OFF
Jack Frost Found Mouth Open
and Filled It with Ice.

heads of women around the Fifth avenue

their strength Last winter expand
ing ice ripped off the whole lower part
Of the face Of one Of the heads, and since
then the half face has, as 1t were, been
stared out OF countensnce by the more

The trouble with the heads is that they

Of their being open is all against them
