markable gain during the past year
This was the announcement resulting
from reports of the twenty-six parishes

ed and spoke of the commentator of

the Protestant denominations. Rev. P
z. Gavan. pastor of the Sacred Heart

ual director for Washington also spoke,
together with Capt. Harry Walsh, who

DISCUSSION Of SITE FOR
EASTERN HIGH SCHOOL
Randle Highlands Association
Favors Reservation 13-Other Bust
ness Considered at Meeting.

Discussion Of a desirable site for the
new Eastern High School occupied the
attention of the members Of the Randle
Highlands Citizens Association at the
october meeting of that body last night
in the Office of the United States Realty
Company, Pennsylvania and Minnesota
avenues southeast, with President c. A.
Barker presiding. Several suggestions
of locations were made by the members,
and finally a resolution was adopted
similar to the one previously adopted.
to the effect that a large tract of land
be acquired for the building In order
that the study of agriculture might be
promoted. Reservation IS was sug-
gested. on the plea that this tract of
land is already owned by the govern
ment, and would make an ideal place
for carrying out the ideas of some of
the school officials. The report of Supt.
Thurston concerning this school was
heartily Endorsed as part of the asso-
cations resolution. Copies are to be
forwarded to all bodies interested.
Shelter for Railway Patrons.
The question of providing a shelter
for railway patrons at the corner of
Pennsylvania avenue and 18th street
southeast. the transfer point Of the
street car lines, was discussed. S. E.
Snyder, chairman of the special COM
mittee having this matter in charge,
stated that little progress had been
made toward the erection of this build
ing on account of the inability of his
committee to get either the Capital
Traction Company, the Commissioners
or the superintendent of public build
ings and grounds to claim ownership
of the land upon which it is proposed to
place the shelter. The fact that the
bad weather is approaching makes the
building of this structure desirable at
once. and Mr.. Snyder said that he would
again take up the question and en-

Appointment Is Significant.

The sending of DR.. Koo. who spent
eight years a Columbia University, re-
ceiving a master of arts degree and a
electorate of philosophy, is taken to in
dictate a desire on the part of President
Yuan Shi-kai not only to have in the
United States a personal representative
conversant with American customs and
diplomacy, but to be prepared in the
event the European powers ultimately
accept American mediation in the war
to have the interests of China here in
the hands of one thoroughly familiar
with China's aims and aspirations DR..
Koo is understood also to be sympa-
thetic with the proposed change of
emma from a republic to a pa rliament-
airy monarchy. He took an active part
IN the recent Japanese Chinese nego-
cations in Picking. AS under secretary
of the Chinese foreign office he was
one of the commission that conducted
the parleys with the Japanese minister.

To Put On Flesh
And Increase Weight

Most people eat from four TO six
pounds of good solid fat-making food
every day and still do not increase in
weight one ounce, while on the other
hand many of the plump. chunky folks
eat very lightly and keep gaining all
the time. It's all bosh to say that this
is the nature of the individual. 1t
isn't Natures way at all.
Most thin people stay thin because
their powers Of assimilation are defec-
tive. They absorb just enough of the
food they eat to maintain life and a
semblance OF health and strength.
Stuffing won't help them, A dozen
meals day won't make them gain a
single stay there" pound All the fat
producing elements OF their food Just
stay there in the intestines until they
pass from the body as waste. What
such people need is something that
will prepare these fatty food elements
SO that their blood can absorb them
and deposit them all about the body
something, too. that will multiply their
red blood corpascles and increase
their blood's carrying power.
For such condition it Is well to
recommend eating Sargol tablet with
every meal. Sargol is not. as some
believe patented drug. but is sim
ply careful combination Of six of the
most effective and powerful assimila.
tive and fiesh-building elements known
TO chemistry. It Is absolutely harm
less, yet has been wonderfully efec-
tive, aud single tablet eaten with
each meal often, according to reports
OF users, has the effect of increasing
the weight OF thin man or woman
from three to FIVE pounds week. Sar-
goi is sold by all good druggists ev-
erywhere on a positive guarantee Of
weight increase or money back. H. o

COUNCIL DEFERS
ACTION ON BOXES
Proposition Of Chicago Concern to In
stall Waste Cans Here Dis
eussea at Length
ruzzIIsG QUESTIONS COME rP
Result in Commissions Decision to
Temporarily Drop Plan of Sign
Ing Contract Immediately.

The city commission ran into sew
erai anags when It considered the free
waste can proposition at special
mseting yesterday afternoon. Az re-
suit decisive action was deferred.
Here's some Of the questions which
were injected into the discussion Of
the proposition OF the Chicago CON
Germ:
Would the people Of the city put
the cans TO use?
II not, would the aid they give IN
the street department be sufficient
compensation to the city 10 warrant
their installation
Would the company consent to place
them In alleys
II not installed on main thorough
fares, would they remedy the condi-
tions they are designed 70 relieve?
Would they or would they moi ap-
pear unsightIy and prove TO be OBJ
structions?
The majority Of the commission
seemed 10 believe that the public Is
not educated to deposit papers In
waste boxes. They base their argu-
ment on observations that the severa
now located here are used only by &
few. They question whether the peo
pie would make any serious effort Il
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1915-12-08

accustom themselves to depositing
paper ia the cans,
The commissioners believe that the
boxes would prove an aid 10 the en-
pleyes Of the street department, but
are not sure that the assistance would
be worth the installation OF the cans.
Want Them in Alleys.
Several of the commissioners ex-
pressed themselves as opposed to plac-
I ing the boxes on Second and Third
avenues and stated that the proper
place for them would be ia the open
ing Of the alleys on the side streets
They thought. however, that this
would defeat the aims of the com
pany la getting advertisers and alsc
would mean that the people who had
waste paper would not walk out OF
the way to deposit it in can. Com
missioner Rudgren said that one OF
the points he held against the propo-
sitien was that the boxes might prove
unsightly and be distractions. The
contract read that they be placed on
the edge of sidewalks away from any
poles
The commission also felt that il
would be binding itself to two-yeaI
contract and that during this time
| conditions might arise which would
cause difficulties. and that more thor
ough investigation by all of the com
missioners into the proposition should
be made before action was taken.
It is quite likely that if the council
does not meet again this week that thu
matter will be presented at the mex
/ regular session Monday.
