Philadelphia Women to Attack 9th

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 16.-With
expressions of satisfaction over the
results of their campaign for cheap
err eggs, officers of the Housekeepers'
league spoke enthusiastically of
plans to reduce the price Of the 9th
er food products, and predicted that
within short time Philadelphians
will be living cheaper and better
than for many years.
During the four days crusade
nearly 100000 eggs have been
sold at "a cents dozen, with a saw
ing to the consumer, according to
Mrs. William B. Dorr, president Of
the league, of $4,000. "And we are
not yet through with the trusts"
continued Mrs. Dorr. When we
have broken the corner in eggs 9TH

There are 100000 pounds more
butter in cold storage than at this

TWO AV|AT0RS
MEET DEATH
Englishmen Meet Death in Crash
Near Oxford.

London, Dec. 16.-The fall OF an
aeroplane yesterday added two to
the list of fatalities of aviation.
Lieut.. w. Parke Of the royal navy,
and Mr.. Hardwick, manager of an
aeroplane company, were killed
when the machine in which they
were making a flight from the Men
don aviation grounds at Oxford
came down with crash on the
Wembley golf course yesterday af-
ternoon.
The two started in a monoplane
in choppy wind. They had pro-
ceeded only few miles at the rate
of about fifty miles an hour when
the machine turned turtle. Many
persons watching the aeroplane saw
it swoop over the golf grounds at a
height of $50 feet. Suddenly the
wind checked it's flight and turned
it over and it crashed to the earth.
The aviators were pinned under the
wreckage.
Lieutenant Parke was one of the
leading aviators in the last army
maneuvers. He received his license
in April, 1911, at Brookands.

WHITE HOUSE CHORES.

Walt Mason: When Woodrow,
statesman good and great, takes up
the round of White house chores,
he'll long for former low estate. for
book and birch and schoolhouse
floors. The White House lawn will
then be filled with men who in the
recent race put up line of talk
that thrilled, and who'll demand a
good fat place. They will not leave
the chief alone, they'll raise eter-
nal howdydo; they'll call him up by
telephone and below down the
kitchen <flue When he steps out to
smoke a torch some grimy office
seeking chap will crawl from under
meath the porch and clamor for a
public snap. And when at night he
lays his head, worn out, upon the
Fellowship. he'll hear voice, from
meath the bed, demanding post
mastership. And every man he sees
betwixt the White House and the
rivers shore, cen though he is al
ready fixed, will hold his talons out
for more. And Woodrow oft will
long to be pedagogue, as he was
planned, kid inverted on his knee,
good elm sapling in his hand!
With yearning oft his heart will
swell, when Office hunters block his
way, to hear again the schoolhouse
bell that calls the students from
their play. And some day, when his
stout heart cracks, and he Is wear
led of his job, doubt not he will
take an ak, and NOV pathway
through the mob.
