FUNERAL HALTs A WEDDING
Guests, Unaware of Death of Brother
of Bride in Hunting Accident,
Take Places as Mourners.

Stevens Point. Instead of the
ceremony that was to unite in mar
riage Miss Martha Demares of Dewey
and Leo zach of Sharon, funeral SER
vices over the body of Conrad De-
mares, brother of the bride to be,
were held at ST. Mary's church. Prep
arations for the wedding had been
practically completed, even to the Sc
curing of the provisions for 800
guests, when news of the death of
Conrad Demares was received from
Park Falls, where he had been kill
ed in hunting accident Many OF
those at the funeral came to the
church expecting to celebrate the
wedding ceremony, and knowing
nothing of the young mans death.

CLOSET is OF NO ADVANTAGE
Actual Test Demonstrates Poultry Do
Better Without Curtain-Found to
Be Unnecessary.

In the curtain-front type of poultry
house used at the Maine experiment
station a feature of the original plan
on which considerable stress was laid
was the canvas curtain in front of the
roosts
This curtain, together with the back
wall of the house and the droppings
board under the roosts formed a closet
in which the birds were shut up at
night during cold weather. When the
curtain front house was first devised it
was thought essential to provide such
a closet to conserve the body heat Of
the birds during the cold nights when
the temperature might go well below
zero Experience has shown, how
ever, that this was mistake. Act
ual test shows that the roosting clos
ct is of no advantage, even in such
severe climate as that of Orono. On
the contrary, the birds certainly thrive
better without the roost curtain than
with it. 1t has been a general OBJ
servation among users Of the curtain
front type of house that when the
roost curtains are used the birds are
particularly susceptible to colds. 1t is
not hard to understand why this
should be so. The air in a roosting
closet when it is opened in the morn
ing is plainly bad. The fact that 1t is
warm in no way Offsets physiologically
the evils of it's lack of oxygen and ex-
cess of carbon dioxid, ammoniacal va
pors and other exhalations from the
bodies of the birds.
For some time past it has been felt
that the roosting closet was at least
unnecessary, il not in fact positive
evil, says writer in the Baltimore
American. Consequently the time of
beginning to close the roost curtain in
the fall has been each year longer de-
layed. Finally, in the fall of 1910, 1t
was decided not to use these curtains
at all during the winter Consequent
ly they were taken out OF the house,
or spiked to the roof, as the case
might be. The winter of 1901 was
a severe one. On several occasions the
temperature dropped to so degrees be
low zero. Yet during this winter the
mortality was exceptionally low and
the egg production exceptionally high.
In view of this experience the sta
ton has decided to discontinue the
use of the roost curtain. 1t would
seem to be generally understood or at
least unnecessary.

BY w. j. MORGAN

A second meeting between Jules
Goux. winner of Fridays 50O-mile
race, and Bob Burman, the world s
speed king" is imminent. Fully be-
lieving that the Keeton car, which
Burman drove in the race, is faster
than the French Peugeot, Forrest M.
Keeton, president of the Keeton Mo
tor Company, is out with a challenge
for match between Burman and
| Goux Mr.. Keeton declared in a
newspaper statement that he is will
ing to make a side bet of S20,000 the
size of the purse won by Goux, that
Burman will prove the Hector car
best in, 5OO-mile race at the Speed
4 way.
When A. G. Kaufman, president of
the Peugeot Auto Import Company,
of New York, was asked whether the
challenge had been received, he as
serted that no such offer had been
made, but indicated his willingness to
face the issue in the following signed
| statement:
II have received no challenge of
any sort from Mr.. Keeton for a
match race of 500 miles between NJ
Goux in the winning Peugeot and Mr.
Burman in the Hector racer. How
| ever, If such a challenge has been
made and. side bet of $4,000 de-
manded, we will give them the race
| All that l ask is that certified check
| for $4,000 be placed in the hands of
Charles M. Sedwick, director of con-
| tests for the indianapolis Motor
Speedway, by Mr.. Keeton. In such
event we will keep M. Goux here and
talk over the preliminary arrange
ments for such a race"
The foregoing not only shows the
willingness of the French to stay"
but gives the assurance that they be-
Heve they have the best car. Goux
himself is said to be DESTROYS of
wagering S., 1000 on the outcome if the
race is held.
There is no question that such an
event would prove highly popular
with the lovers of the game. To be
allowed to see a match race between
the Speed kings" of the world for
such a princely sum will bring race
enthusiasts from all parts of the
country. Although Goux was expect
ed to leave the city at once and sail
for France Immediately to take part
in the French grand prix in July, he
has signified his Willingness to re-
main in case the match can be ar
ranged He and his teammates are
hoping that the articles of agree
ment can be signed soon.
There is no question that the race
could be held, as it is said on good
authority that permission could be
obtained from the American Automo-
bile Association, the American body
which controls motor car racing in
the United States.
Mr.. Keeton is just as firm in his
belief that his car can come out the
winner in another attempt, He stated
that "a reeptition of the event or a
match race will prove Burman's SUI
perioritya'' He also said that acct
dents not due to the construction of
the Keeton car were the cause of
Burman's failure to win, ''inasmuch
as lightning never strikes twice in
the same place"
The outcome of the challenge is
anxiously awaited by the enthusiasts
who know the circumstances, and it

Always on the lookout for that
which makes for better things, the
Bamberger store has instituted a
shopping service which will prove
universally popular with elderly
people or those who are timid about
shopping in a big store like this.
The new service consists of
corps of able shoppers, the members
of which will be pleased to accom-
pany you on your shopping tour;
suggest and advise you regarding
your purchases, and introduce you
to the different salespeople as you
go along. Does not the idea appeal
to you? These shoppers are thor
oughly experienced. They know the
merchandisez-they know the styles
they know the departments. Their
duty will be to render to you a
PERSONAL SERVICE-to make you
feel more AT HOME-to act the part
of hostess, as it were.

Quoted shopping service Is now in
operation. 1t remains for you to

is believed that an agreement will
| be reached soon.
Thea race at Indianapolis was wei
won. Experts, however, went away
with the belief that the Frenchman
Jules Goux, and his Peugeot, had
much left in the way of speed, and
was not extended to the utmost and
was at all times running under what
horsemen call "a pull" Others de-
clare that the Frenchman's racer had
too long a wheel base and had tc
take the corners carefully. It was
noticed that he shut off his engine
every time he struck the lower OF
grand-stand corher, and, when he en-.
tered the back stretch his French
engine again commenced barking
furiously.
Undoubtedly the most formidable
team in the race was the American
Stutz, made at Indianapolis, which
came into fame in day by it's per-
Torrance in a big race here. If bad
luck followed De Palma, 1t certainly
was attendant on the Stutz team.
Anderson, one of the Stutz drivers
had the second position pretty well
bottled up, when his engine went
wrong while at the pit, with only
twelve more laps to go.
MerZ, the other Stutz driver, had a
narrow escape from losing third po-
sition, as his car got afire two laps
from home. That did not stop Merz,
however, for he and his mechanic,
Martin, with heads covered by the
hood, drove the flaming car like a
meteor around the last lap, amid the
groans of the spectators, who ex-
pected that terrible disaster would
be the reward of the brave. unf1inch-
ing young Americans, either in the
way of disabled car, tires
burned off, or an exploding gasolene
tank. No one breathed easily until
the fire had been extinguished with
chemicals at the pit after its crew
had jumped from the car
1t must be remembered that out of
twenty-seven entries there were only
eight foreign ones to the nineteen
American, and the former scored four
places out of the seven This would
seem that the foreign racing car had
the better of it, If their. entries had
been as numerous as the American,
probably a different story as to the
winners would have been told. The
sale of foreign cars in the United
States has dwindled to almost nothing
as compared with the sales a few
years ago, when the foreign cars
were winning nearly all the big races,
both in this country end Europe.
1t is, therefore, expected that a
new life win be given the selling of
foreign cars in the United States,
especially if the suggested tariff re-
duction on imported cars is passed
by this session of Congress. The
Peugeot is a car that must be reck-
oned with, and its makers, in Jules
Goux, Paul Zucarrelli and Georges
Boillot, have a trio of racing engi-
neers that are not equaled in any
country. These men have been sweep
ing the boards in contests, Boillot be-
ing a star at the recent meets in
France. These men, by the way,
build their own cars, in special fac
tory, set aside for it, and they divide
the winnings equally and are a rae
ing firm on the commonwealth plan.
This would suggest that a similar
firm of Mercer or Stutz be formed
that might produce a team equal to
the Peugeot. or possibly superior.
