HOUSEKEEFERS ACQUlESCE
IN NEW MILK PRICES
Chief Objection Is AZ to Cnnh REQUIRE
ment for MIX in Half
Pint BOTTLES.

Asked what they thought about the
proposed increase in the price OF milk
several representative housewives OF
Richmond expressed consensus of
opinion that. while 1t was hard on
the consumer. particularly where there
were little children and babies in the
family. yet they were willing to be-
lieve that the dairymcn felt them
selves justified in putting the price up
on the pints and half pints
The matter OF paying cash for the
half-pint bottles OF milk Is regarded
as nuisance by the housewives, es-
pecially where the half cent comes
into the transaction.
Just what the Housewives League
Will have to say when the matter comes
up for discussion at the opening meet
Ing OF the fall at the Jefferson Hotel
September 10 can only be surmised
Mrs. Stuart MichauS. the president of
the Housewives League. has just re-
turned to town. and. while a number
Of interested women had already call
ed her up about the question of tho
increase in the price Of milk. she told
a reporter that she had not given the
matter sufficient consideration to make
a statement for publication. as yet.

the shops. Tho electrical Installation
Is one OF the most modern TO be found
in any technical or manufacturing
plant.
The electrical energy Is transformed
from 1900 volts ee-phase to 22o
volts three-phase, through G. L. trans
formers at the rear Of the building.
All the electrical power Is transmitted
through underground conduit to a
large distributing panel of 1900 am
peres capacity. centrally located. This
Is distributed to subpanels, and from
there to tho individual motors. The
voltage drop does not exceed per
cent over the whole system. and this
represents great saving OF electrical
energy. Each department is equipped
with intercomm unicating telephones.
and the lighting system consists OF
Holophane refiectors set for maximum
diffusion. S. r. Minter. OF the class
Of 1911, had entire charge OF the cleo
tricai installation. and his work is a
model of workmanship in wiring and
underground conduit transmission.
Lack of classroom space was great
handicap in the old shops building.
which was destroyed by fire in June.
1913. In the new building there are
two large and well-lghted classrooms.
suitably wired SO that machines may
be brought before the class for demon
stration by instructors. a suite Of
| offices. all connected, gives ample room
for professors and the director of me-
chanic arts. This department., with
the present space and shop equipment.
can handle an enrolment of from 1000
to 1900 shop students with proper
class organization.
The new building, which will cost
| about $4,000. cannot be duplicated at
| the present war prices for less than
| $4,000. When bids were asked in
1914. the lowest bid was 100000, with
out the heating system. 1t is a monu-
ment to all those who have made it's

miles OF wire. 1000 feet of pipe, $500
barrels OF cement and eighty tons of
steel for reinforcing were used in
the construction. The roof and pillars
of the building are all of re-enfoced

Boys Body Found in Black
Creek

Hartsville, April 13 Follow
ing a diligent search of nearly
two days, the BODY of IL year
old Carl Moore was located to-
day at a point in Black creek
lake near where his cap was
found yesterday afternoon near
the Prestwood crossing. The
lad had been missing since
Wednesday afternoon, and the
supposition was that he was
drowned. Scores of people kept
on the watch, and the Boy Scouts
of Hartsville made a long and
careful search yesterday. Men
with flashlights remained at the
lake last night. The water in
the lake was gradually let out
today about 1:20 o'clock. The
boy was found after the water
had receded about three feet.
The accident is one of the sad
dest that has ever happened here.
The boy was a student III the
Hartsville graded school and was
bright active boy. His father,
Wewis Moore, had forbidden
him fishing alone or going in a
boat by himself. A peculiar
fondness for the sport carried
him to his death.
