Free Car Rides.
Visiting Woodmen have had an op-
portunity to ride free on the street
railway lines of Toledo. but few are
availing themselves of it. About half
the natives of the city are doing so,
however. The Toledo Railways and
Light company. which owns al the
city lines. is in a deadlock with the
city council over the acceptance of a
franchise. the old one having expired.
Toledo. taking its inspiration from
Cleveland. demanded three-cent fares.
and a new ordinance with that feature
incorporated was passed. The com
pany refused to accept il. and the
council stood firm. so since March
three-cent fares have been recognized (
by the city. but not by the company, .
EXCEPT during two hours in the morn

pie are going 10 and from work EX-
cept during these hours the conduc-
tors are instructed to refuse to accept 3
three cents as fare. and when that I

its passenger is allowed TO ride free.
Many Toledoans keep three cents al
ways in their pockets or purses to ten
der in this manner. Some of them
even have their three pennies fastened
to cards or glued together for conven-
ience. and they serve as a pass on all
city lines.

Toledo. Ohio. June 17.-Foresters of
Camp 26 of Rock Island won first
prize in the senior class competition
at Camp r. R. Smith yesterday after
noon. setting what is believed to be a
worlds record for drills OF this kind
At least the mark credited by the
judges was the highest ever given at
a foresters' encampment. being 1920
per cent. but IS per cent below abso-
lutte perfection. Omaha was second
and Grand Rapids third.
The team of Camp 90 was one of the
last to drill. Had it been first, the
margin over its nearest competitor
would have been larger, for other
teams were so far outclassed that the
judges had not sufficient margin be
tween earlier markings and perfection
to indicate the actual difference In the
quality of the work. Three regular
army officers. one of whom was Colo
mel James E. NormoyIe, passed upon
the work of the senior division. The
judges commended the winners in the
highest terms, saying their work was
a revelation both in manual and evolu-
tons. The highest mark the foresters
of 26 ever made previously was 97.479,
at Buffalo three years ago, when sec
ond prize was won.
Nineteen Teams Compete.
The first prize this year is $3.50.
