 WASHINGTON, Jan 30.-In the senate this afternoon the appoint ment by President Wilson of Dr. G ayson as medical director of the navy wish the rank of rear admiral was confirmed.
 The appointment met with great op- DC sition in the senate owing to the fact that Grayson would be lifted over the heads of many who were eatitled to the rank by regular pro- milton and that he had not distln- gUshed himself in a way to warrant this reward being given him. His services as personal physician to the prc sident, it was urged, had not been of an arduous nature and indeed the position was more of an honor than q duty

Kin You Bent:H?
A Little Discussion of Ice At
This Time of Year Won't
Do Any Harm

A fellow never goes to the dentist
except when he has the tooth ache,
though he should. In fine, there are
many things we don't do when we
should. All of which brings UP the
subject of ice when ice is all around
US, instead of waiting till a torrid
temperature calls for deep consider
alton of the subject.
Ice is an important commodity on
the farm in the summer. It can be
used to keep many foods fresh, as
meats, milk, cream. butter and so on.
Many foods are also more appetizing
if kept cool. The ice house should be
built square and about as high as the
length Of the wall. If ten feet square
and with ten foot posts it should hold
about eighteen to twenty tons and if
twelve feet square with twelve foot
posts it should hold thirty tons. 1t is
necessary to keep air from circulating
around the ice or it will melt. Saw
dust is good for packing around the
ice, but straw or chaff are also good.
Good drainage is also necessary. If
there is no ice near by, it can oe
made in a galvanized iron box made
the size the cakes are desired. IT
should be little larger at the top
than the bottom. Pour it full Of
water which will freeze enough in a
day or two so that it can be removed
by pouring hot water on the galvan-
lied iron box which will loosen the
ice cake. Then fill with water and 80
on. It will not take long to make a
summers supply of ice this way and
one will know the kind of water that
goes into the ice.

New Ruling Of Fuel Adminis-
traitor Makes Life Hard
For Sp6oners

Sacred institutions to-. lovers are
Sundays and Thursdays because on
those nights swains have been wont
to meander towards the homes of
loved ones and there, in sweet dali
lance, while the hours away. But
cruel war ordains that those nights
shall be observed as ightless, that Is,
as few lights as possible shall burn
on those nights each week. Fuel ad-
ministrator Starke is in receipt Of ad-
vices that all signs and display lights
are to be discontinued on those nights.
White way lights must be reduced to
"a minimum, household are urged to
use as few lights as possible on those
nights. Lovers will have to select
other nights than those prescribed or
must, perforce, do their sparkling IN
the dark. which is quite an improbable
eventuality.
There shall be no more lighting
than is absolutely necessary for safety
for street passages and dangerous
spots. Theatre signs will not shine on
Sundays and Thursdays and stores not
open for business must not show more
inside lights than are necessary for
safety.
This ruling has been made as a
measure of precaution against the
probability of fuel shortage. Though
this locality is not affected at present
by shortage of coal, it is thought
|expedient to use precautionary meth
ods to insure future of sufficient
fuel.
The public is advised that this is a
Government order and as such is sub
iect to observance: therefore, you are
asked to let only "the lower lights
be burning" on Sundays and Thurs
days.

Stage Scenery is
Installed in Neu
RiaLtO Theatre

The stage scenery and effects have
been put in place in the new Rialto
theatre during the past week under
the personal supervision of the artist
who painted the curtains, G. N. Can
non, Of the Joy & Cannon Scenic Co.,
St. Paul. The drop curtains are as
follows: Asbestos, advertising front
curtain, street scene, rose garden
scene, wood scene, parlor and kitchen
curtains.
The scenic work has been done ir,
the new modern art, stippled urban
effects, lately inau Zurated in the
scenic work of the large theatres in
the east. The effect is very odd, but
highly pleasing to the eye.
Owing to the dampness of the walls
in the new show house, the painters
have been unable to go along with
their work, and the interior decora-
tions will undoubtedly not be COM
pleted for another ten days. All
furniture and equipment is ready for
installation as soon as the painters
complete the job, however, and Man.
ager Tom Vallancey hopes to open
the new Rialto theatre with the be-
ginning of the new year.

Lloyd Lillibridge, nine-year-old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Lillibridge of

Prominent Man
Freezes TO Death
As He Seeks Home

Gus Riederman, manager of lum-
ber yard at Mcintosh, was frozen to
death there recently while on his way
to his homestead, nine miles from that
city, to visit his family.
Mr.. Riederman started late on a
Saturday afternoon and was found
the following Monday morning. It is
presumed that Mr.. Riedernan had
some trouble with his car when the
big storm came up and, becoming lost
at fork Of the roads, decided 70
leave the car and proceed home on
foot. The car was discovered about
four miles from his house and the
body was found within a quarter of a
mile of the home, by his two daugf1-
ters and a brother while on their
way to school. They noted mound
of snow at one side Of the road close
up against fence and investigation
showed it to be Mr.. Riederman. Hat
and gloves We're missing and these
are being searched for.
As the family had not expected Mr..
Riederman to come home Saturday
night no apprehension was felt and
only the finding Of the body brought
to the family a realization Of their
loss.

agent, Motor Vehicle Dept, has issued

more than 100000 applications were re-
ceived that should have been made in
January of this year. Confusion,
errors and unnecessary delays result
