GAS BILLS
VERY HIGH
People Complaining that Wealth
er Does Not Justify Such
Enormous Bills.

Complaints can be heard on
all sides that the bills for natur-
al gas during the month of Jan
uary was too high considering
the mild weather we enjoyed a
portion of the month.
The Advocate investigated and
found in nearly every instance
that the gas bills run from 80
to so per cent. higher in January
than in December. The gas bill
at this office was $I4.7o in De
cember and $2o.65 in January.
Complaints have been made at
Winchester and Lexington and
it is said suit will be in stitutcd in
Lexington to prevent the collec-
ton of several accounts. There
is also some talk of having the
Attorney General investigate the
charges being made there.

ENTERTAIN WITH
BANQUET AT HOTEL

The American Steel & Wire
Co., through Chenault & Orear,
its local agents, entertained de-
lightfully about fifty farmers
and local business men with an
elegant banquet at the National
Hotel Friday evening. The re-
preventative of the steel and
wire company made talk in
the interest of the steel fence
posts which his company is put
ting out and which seems to be
the coming post as it has many
advantages over the wood posts.
1t does not rust or decay in any
manner, no post holes have to
be dug, they are all uniform in
size and make the prettiest
fence imaginable. If interested
see Chenault & Orear, who car
ry a complete stock.

this problem. After discussing
the question at length the COM
mittees asked for ten days time
in which to make their recon-
mendations. The meeting was
then adjourned.

GLENN INSURANCE BILL

1t is reported that if the Glenn
Insurance bill which has been in
PRODUCED at the present meeting
of the Legislature becomes a law
that the majority of insurance
companies doing business in this
state will be forced to withdraw.
1t is considered the most dractic
insurance law passed in many
years. The Board of Trade of
Louisville have protested against
the bill being passed. Fire in
surance is a necessity and pro-
posed laws affecting it should be
thoughtfully considered before
they are passed. This bill effects
all local insurance men.

SEALING STEAMER IS
 CRUSHED IN ICE .s~r.
Majority of Crew of Newfoundland Believed to Have PeriShed-
 Fears Felt for Southern Cross.

St. Johns, N. F., April 2.-The seal- ing steamer Newfoundland has been crushed in the ice just south of Belle Isle Strait and the greater part of her crew of one hundred and fifty men are believed to have perished.
 Steamers in the vicinity picked up several bodies and a few of the crew who had survived on the ice foes to which they escaped when their vessel went down.
 Fifty of the crew have been ac- counted for in this manner. Most of them were dead when discovered and several others were dying.
 Great alarm is also felt for the sealing steamer Southern Cross which is also believed to have been caught in the ice. a The reports re- ceived here said that it was a part of the crew of the Southern Cross that had been picked up and that they were being brought into port by the ewfoundland. There are 173 on board the Southern Cross. She was due here Tuesday.

DR. kNOCH ASSA|LS
 SCHOOL ATHLETICS
Noted Educator Claims Football Players Have Awkward PoStureS.

St. Louis, Mo, April 2.-Football basketball and long distance races in grammar and high schools were char acterized as almost criminal by Dr. Arthur A. Knoch of the Walnut Hills High school, Cincinnati, in an ad- dress today before thes American Physical Education association.
 Our public officials ought to know he said, "that such strenuous physical exertion exhausts almost all organs and that a dilated heart is the natural result of the unreasonab- ly prolonged tension incident to such games. Our ideal should not cul- minate in the training of young ath- letes, but in the education of mental ly and physically sound and harmon iously developed men and women, whose gait, posture and bodily move ments would arouse the admiration of all.
 Observe the clumsy, awkward pos- ture>> of nearly all members of our high school football teams. AL though the football season lasts only ten weeks and the daily practice is only two hours, yet this strenuous physical work in deep bending of the trunk position develops in the young body round shoulders, a droop- ing head posture and sunken thoraX.
 "The general opinion of progress sive pedagogues and physicians is rapidly developing into a conviction that undue pressure is applied, and applied prematurely, in forcing the mental development of school chill dran iC crnp1 demand fhQf children from six to ten years should remain in a completely passive posi- tion five hours daily in a musty, gen. orally overloaded school room, when every fibre irnpels them to run into the free and beautiful out of doors.
 We overburden our pupils mental ly at too early an age, and this is one of the reasons why such lamentable results are obtained during the first four school years" .
