LITTLE TROUBLE IN.
LONDON FROMDR|NK
IN AREA WHERE HALF MILLION
PEOPLE RESIDE, DRUNKARDs
AVERAGE ABOUT ONE DAILY.
ny AssocIATED PRESS.

London, Jan. 15.-In the area of
London known as the city, which
was formerly surrounded by the walls
Of London and is now the financial
center with only small residential
but large working population, there
is only one conviction a day for
drunkenness out of one and half
million persons. This statement was
made at a meeting of the city coun-
Gil by Sir A. Bower in behalf of the
240 licensed bars contained within
these limits. His figures were based
on police court records and an esti-
mate of the number of persons work
ing in the city during the day. There
are only about 10000 actual residents.
In view of this record of sobriety, the
saloonmen asked the council to en-
dorse a petition to the board of liquor
control, asking for a relaxation of the
present stringent rules. The bars
pay local taxes amounting to $780,
900 a year, it was said, and they suf-
fer great hardship under the new
rules. The council decided, however,
that it was out Of its province to en-
dorse the liquor mems petition.

MANUAL TURERs
ARE CHALLENGED
B. r. GOODRICH co. CLAIMS TO
MANUFACTURE MORE AUTO
MOBILE TIRES THAN ANY
OTHER COMPANY.

In a challenge issued to other tire
manufacturers, the B. r. Goodrich
Company of Akron, Ohio, declared
itself willing to throw open its books
and records to an independent audit
company if other companies will do
the same, that the Goodrich Com
pany may prove it manufacturers
more automobile and truck tires com
blned than any other concern in
America. The challenge states that
the Goodrich Company manufactured
in the last year more than 1880, 900
tires.
The formal wording of the chaI-
lenge follows:
ITO any rubber or tire manufac-
turing concern which claims produc-
ton and sale of as many auto and
truck tires combined (by any or all
of its United States factories3 as
were produced and sold by the Akron
(Ohio) factory of the B. F. Goodrich
Company during the latest fiscal
year of each we extend this challenge.
eve will throw open our books and
records of tire manufacture and sale
to fair and impartial audit, super
vised by committee of three to be
mutually agreed upon, provided the
competing tire concern or concerns
will do the same.
eve will abide by the result of
that audit, and agree that all rubber
or tire concerns who are parties
thereto be free to publish the certi-
fled findings of that audit as to the
comparative volume of each COM
pany's combined auto and truck tire
production and sale.
we confine the audit to the pro-
duction and sale of auto and truck
tires combined to those made in the
American u. S. A.) factories of
each concern, thus excluding our own
foreign factory and the foreign fac
tories of all competitors.
eve do this because the volume
Of these foreign factories cannot
help in lowering the cost
Of production and the selling of tires,
IS made by the American factories
Of each, and because some American
rubber concerns have no foreign fac
tories.

other rubber factory in America III.

BEAR STEALS HEN
At FLOR|DATOWN
.HUNTSMEN GO IN SEARCH AND
SHOOT THE BEAR, BUT BRUIN
MAKES HIS ESCAPE.
SPECIAL 70 THE JOURNAL


Floridatown, Jan. 13.-Several of
Floridatown's most gifted huntsmen
had quite an exciting chase after a
big black bear in the mash just west
of here Monday morning. Bruin
sneaked up to the fowl yard of Mr..
A. James and succeeded in making
way with a good old mother hen.
The family dog barked him away, but
not until several persons had seen
him. The report was spread over
town and soon several would-be bear
killers were out in hot pursuit.
The James family dog was again
put on the trail. Mr.. Bear was soon
located in a tree in the marsh. Mr..
Heller, being swifter than his COM
panions, got the first view of the willy
bruin up in the tree and proceeded
to bring him to earth with load of
buckshot.
After he fell to the ground badly
wounded Mr.. Bear made his escape
into the thick underbrush and was
not found again.

Glue Unfortunate
Farmer Mule Team,


The spirit Of charity and o-opera-
ton which has always been a pre-
dominant trait Of the farming com
munity north Of the city has been
shown in the very substantial help
given ''Reub" Clay, who lost six horses
within few weeks by an unknown
disease. Clay has many friends in the
neighborhood. They passed the hat,
and Clipped in enough to buy him a
team Of mules, which were presented
to Clay.
Without work animals Clay's farm
work was getting far behind. One day
recently forty of the neighbors, with
cultivators, drove to the eNlson farm
south Of the river and cultivated a
large field Of corn Clay has growing
there.
So far none of the other horses Of
the neighborhood have been attacked
by the disease, and even a bunch Of
young horses Clay owns which are be-
ing pastured across the river have not
become sick.
