Another interesting point about Nc
Millan's history is that many citizens
OF the neighborhood insist on calling
1t the Delray school. ignoring the fact
that Delray Is now q part OF the Eight
zenith ward Of the city Of Detroit, be
ing annexed In 1906.
Definite decision or plans have not
been made for the girls basketball
team. although Mcmillan has the dis
tinctiop of having been the champions
OF Detroit for four years. from 1908
to 1911. They also defeated strong
teams from other parts OF the state,
as well as one from New York.
Among the stars Of the old team
were Misses Todd, Herman, Foley.
Burbank, Miller and the three Mont
gomery sisters.
Newcomb and batbaii are popular
with the lower grades. and II is likely
that considerable attention will be de-
voted to this sport. We will give de-
tails later.
The Bryan Debating club. the first
to be organized, had its preliminary
meeting Oct. IA, at which time the
conditions for success were not at
all favorable. Two very enthusiastic
members kept hammering away, how
ever, and at the next meeting, Oct.
81, tho attendance was quite large and
"a complete set OF officers were elect
ed, as follows: President, Berthold
Roschy; vice-president. Oliver Kari
COTE; secretary. Annabelle Johnson;
treasurer, +. Woodford. During the sec
ond meeting question arose as to
whether all the teachers Of the high
school should be made honorary mem
beers or only part OF them. The lat
ter plan seemed the, most favorable
until Vice President Karicofe took the
floor and pointed out the dificulties
and unpleasantness that might result
from such q course. His remarks
were full Of fire and sparkled with
imously decided to invite all the high
school teachers to become associate
members.
As q pleasant memory for the fu-
ture we wish to point out some OF the
striking "firsts" that occurred at the
organization meeting Of the Bryan
club. The "frst" meeting was held
Oct. IA; the first" honorary presi-
dent was Principal Murdoch; the

and the first" important speech was
delivered by Oliver Karicofe.
He will appreciate II very much II
one or more members of similar clubs
in the other high schools will attend
any Of our meetings. which are. held
each "wednesday afternoon at 1880. II
you do not know the way to McMil-
Ian, just take either Delray, South
Dearborn or West Jefferson car to
West End-ave. and walk two blocks
north to the school. You will be very
welcome. greeted with characteristic

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1S-The president has set the machinery of the federal government in motion to determine whether the cost of living has been increased upon the pre- text of conditions existing in Europe" He has called upon the at torney general to report if criminal proceedings are warranted or if d new law is necessary He may send a new message to congress in the latter event.
 Certainly the country ought to be defended" wrote the president to Attorney General McReynolds, If possible against men who take ad- vantage of such circumstances to increase the price of food, and the difficulties of living"

HALIFAX August 13.-For a half hour Thursday night, H. NJ. S. Bris- tol, the smallest British warship in the North Atlantic. fought a long range duel with the Karlsruhe, the largest and fastest German cruiser which has been trying to intercept British shipping.
 Fleeing from the North German Lloyd steamer KrOnprinz Wilhelm, the German cruiser was intercepted by the Bristol southwest of Bermuda. and for a half hour a long range running fight took place in the blackness of the semi-tropical night
 Racing through the heavy swell at a terrific clip. the ships exchanged broadsides without inflicting much damage, conditions being very un favorable to accurate gunnery AL though the Bristols consorts were at least a hundred miles astern, the German would not stand by and fight. according to British partici pants.

LITTLE INTERFERENCE
 WITH AGRICULTURE
Will be Market for American Pro-
 ducts
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArCH1

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH1
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 13,-The effect of the European war upon agriculture in the United States was discussed for the first time by Secretary Houston, who pointed out that the United States is practically the only large food pro- ducing country undisturbed.
 If Germany and Austria cannot control the high seas" he said. Tt will be very difficult for food supply from this country to reach them. This will not have a very serious effect on our exports because a very small propor- tion is taken by these countries Of wheat and flour exported in 1913, out of 140,000,0 900 bushels only 12,000,000 went to Germany and Austria. If they are able to control the high seas it will seriously interfere with the marketing of the greater part of the food stuffs we export.
 If, on the other hand, England, France and Russia control the high seas, we will be able to market in the near future without great difficulty a great mass of eXportable food pro- ducts Even if they cannot control the seas. they are going to take every sort of reasonable risk to get supplies. On account of their extensive shore lines and large shipping facilities they would doubtless secure q very considerable part of what they need"

SUMMER IN THE CITY

Summers in the city, with her old old air,
 And avenues are dusty and the burn ing pavements glare, And the throngs are very listless, and the stores and factories hum With a kind of tired music like the lazy insects hum; And the offices are lonely and the buildings seem to dream As they tower toward the heavens in the summers burning gleam. Summers in the city, with her old, old smile, And the little boats are blowing down the Light street mile, And she dances with her roses in the squares and in the park, And she wrinkles in the grasses of the gardens after dark; And all the seething nighttime there s a smother and a steam Where the eyes from out of the win doWs of the skyscrapers gleam. Summers in the city, with her old old way Of lOafing and of laughing and of snoozing through the day, With the people slipping soda at the fountains every hour, And evening with it's music where the sweet parks flower, And there a hurdy- -gurdy by the gut ter playing tunes To tempt the feet of childhood with the old. old tunes.

Chicauo Prices

CHICAGO Aug. 13.-Increases in living expenses have spread to in clude most of the more pretentious cafes and clubs and a general rise in prices is marked in bills. In spite of the threatened investigations by nation, state and city, there is no reduction in the cost of staples for home consumption.
 At the stock yards there was no change in wholesale prices of meats. Cattle and hog receipts continued under normal, the packers asserting that they are facing the greatest shortage in their history, kept prices firm. Almost all staples showed a slight increase with a firm market.
 Wholesalers advanced butter a half cent for good grades, potatoes five to ten cents q barrel, rib beef from 21 to 22 cents Joins from 23 to 24, chucks from 13 to 1872 cents. Eggs are half a cent cheaper.
 Retail meat dealers denied the statement from packing houses that high meat prices were due to physi- cal shortage and not influenced by war. times
 "Retailers are charging but one cent more a pound for meats than they pay" said one retail dealer with several big down town stores. He said the packers had prepared for just such a shortage by filling their cold storage houses and that the in- crease was not justifiable"

How to Clean a Carafe.

Every housekeeper who owns a cut
glass carafe has been up against the
proposition of cleaning out the deposit
on the inside. Hot water, besides be-
ing extremely bad for the glass, is of
little avail, even if it be very soapy.
Here is a process which takes but a
few moments and is very satisfactory:
Place in the bottle a teaspoonful Of
hydrochloric acid or spirits Of salts;
manipulate the bottle SO that every
portion Of it shall be thoroughly rinsed
The deposit, no matter how hardened,
will be removed Immediately. When
the carafe has been thoroughly clean
ed rinse we'll in clear water.
