Jurisdiction May
Come Up Wednesday

The question of just how far the
Public Service Commission can go in
requiring railroads to abolish grade
crossings now that the railroads are
all under Governmental control will
probably be raised here on Wednes-
day, when the Commission will hear
the states own complaint against
three grade crossings on state high
ways which cross the Reading rail
way in Derry township, Dauphin
county, on the road between Harris
burg and Lebanon. This road is ex-
tensively travelled and the State
Highway Department charged that
the crossings are dangerous. The
company replied that after the war
and things become normal it would
take up the problems of abolishing
them.
The case will raise the question of
state authority very clearly, as the
state is the complainant but attor-
neys on both sides will probably ask
to have the matter continued until
the status of the company in re-
gard to such matters as improve
ments can be determined. The out
come is being awaited with great
interest.

Ice Cream Product

Ice cream has been declaimed

quently reported uncleanliness.
There is no question, however, that
ice cream made under strictly hy-
gienic conditions is, in addition to
its grateful palatability especially in
hot weather, a nutritious food, and
it's use in certain complaints is of
considerable value from the dietetic
standpoint. The statement has been
made that the distribution of bac-
ter1a in ice cream is markedly un-
even, that there is so great Varia-
bility in the bacterial counts of diff
ferent portions of the same contain
er that any small sample selected
for analysis will not represent the
whole mass of the ice cream.
. This statement is disputed by S.
Henry Ayres and w. T. Johnson in
bulletin No. sos, United States de-
partment of agriculture, who give
an account of the manner in which
they determined bacteria in ice
cream. AS result of their investi-
cations they came to the conclusion
that the method of collecting SAM
pies and making bacterial counts
used in the experiments gives results
which indicate that bacteria in COM
mercial cream are distributed quite
evenly, and that an analysis from a
gallon of ice cream gives results
which will hold for any other SINH
lar sample from the same gallon.
Storage of ice cream for eleven
days in commercial cream cabinet,
or in hardening room for a period
of two months, did not seem to cause

The
Yukon Trail
(Continued)
BY William Macleod Raine

I'm going away for two days.
Perhaps when 1 come back you will
know, Sheba. Take your time. Mar
riage is serious business. I want
you to remember that my life has
been different from yours. You'll
hear all sorts of things about Ine.
Some of them are true There is
this difference between a man and
a good woman. He fights and falls
and fights again and wins. But a
good woman is finer. She has never
known the failure that drags one
through slime and mud. Her good
ness is born in her; she doesn't have
TO fight for it."
The girl smiled a little tremu-
lously. Doesn't she? We're not
all angels you know"
II hope you're not. There will
need to be a lot of the human in
YOU to make allowances for Colby
Macdonald" he replied with an an
swering smile.
When he said good-by it was
with a warm, strong handshake.
"Tll be back in two days. Per-
haps you'll have good news for me
then" he suggested.
The dark. silken lashes of her
eyes lifted shyly to meet his.
Perhaps she said.
During the absence of Macdonald
the field agent saw less of Sheba
than he ad expected, and when he
did see her she had an distracted
manner he did not quite Understand.
She kept to her own room good
deal, except when she took long
walks into the hills back of the
town. Diane had a shrewd idea
that the Alaskan had put his for
tune to the test, and she not only
let her cousin alone herself, but
Tended Gordon from her adroitly.
The third day after the dinner Ell
liot dropped around to the Pagets
with intent to get Sheba into set
of tennis. Diane sat on the porch
darning socks.
"Sheba is out walking with Mr..
Macdonald" she explained in an
swer to a question as to the where
abouts OF her guest.
"Oh, he's back, is he?" remarked
Gordon moodily.
"He came back this morning.
SheDa has gone up with him to see
the Lucky Strike"
You're going to marry her to
that man if you can. aren't you?"
he charged.
IF l can, Gordon" She slipped a
darning ball into one of little
Peters stockings and placidly
trimmed the hole.
IT'S what 1 call a conspiracy"
"Is it?" Diane smiled.
Gordon understood her smile to
mean he was jealous.
Maybe l am. That's not the
point, he answered, just as if she
had made her accusation in words
Suppose you tell me what the
point is" she suggested.

Mothers of little girls will
find this coat a most satisfactory
one. There is a plain body por-
ton and the skirt or lower por-
ton of the coat can be made
with an inverted plait at the
back or gathers. The gathers
will be pretty if you are using
such material as broadcloth.
The plat is good for the heavier
cloths. In the picture, white
chinchilla cloth is trimmed with
black velvet and that combina-
ton is very fashionable as well
as attractive. A broadcloth
coat with gathered back is pretty
and white, pastel colors and
cadet blue are favorites for such
use and you can trim it either

an uneven distribution of bacteria.
In series of from five to ten
samples taken directly from a large
commercial freezer, the bacterial
counts on each sample checked with
in the usual limits of error of bac-
terial analysis. No greater variation
in bacterial counts between samples
was observed when the plates were
incubated at 81 degrees Centigrade
for 48 hours than when incubated at
30 degrees Centigrade for a period
of five days.
when dilutions were such that
about 200 colonies were present on
the plates a lower variation between
counts of samples of ice colonies per
plate. The variation in plates made
from the same sample was found to
range from, Z to 26.6 per cent.
Among duplicate. plates a variation
as high as Al per cent was observed. :"

CHRISTMAS ON CHRISTMAS
ISLAND

They never have any white"
Christmases on Christmas island.
The thermometer never falls below
20 and never rises above 80 in the
shade.
Christmas island lies about $50
miles southeast of the western ex-
tremity of Java. 1t is in the In
dian ocean and belongs to Great Brit
ain, having been annexed in 1888.
This interesting little bit of land in
midsea appears to have been origin
ally coral reef, which by volcanic
forces has been raised so high that
at its highest point it sticks out of
the water 1000 feet. In shape it is
an irregular quadrilateral.' 1t has an
area of about twenty square miles.

HE isn't good enough for her.
You know that perfectly WELL"
Good enough!" She shrugged her
shoulders. What man is good
enough for a nice girl, if you come
to that? There are other things be-
sides sugary goodness. Any man
who is strong can make himself
good enough for the woman he
loves"
Generally speaking, yes. But
Colby Macdonald is different"
That heaven he is" she retorted
impatiently. Then added after a
moment: "He isn't Sunday school
superintendent if that's what you
mean"
That isn't what I mean at all.
But there's such a thing as a diff
ference between right and wrong,
isn't there?"
"Oh. yes. For instance. Mr.. Nc
donald is right about the need of
do it, and you are wrong"
Pm not talking about essential
right and wrong. Miss O'Nell is
idealizing Macdonald. l don't sup
pose you've told her, for instance.
that he made his money in the
North running a dance hall"
mo, 1 haven't told her any such
thing, because it isn't true" she re-
piled scornfully. HE owned an
opera house and brought in a COM
pary of players. I dare say they
danced. That's very different, as
you'd know if you didn't have astig-
matisn of the mind"
Not the way the story was told
me. But let that pass. Does she
know that Macdonald beat her
father out of one of the best claims
on Bonanza and was indirectly re-
sponsible for his death?"
What's the use of talking nom
sense, Gordon. You know you
can't prove that" his friend told him
sharply
IT think I can-if it is neces-
sary."
Diane looked across at him with
an impudent little tilt of the chin
II don't think l like you as we'll as
l used to-"
Sorry, because I'd like you Just
as well, Diane, if you would stop
trying to manage your cousin into
a marriage that will spoil her lita,"
he answered gravely. The happi-
ness of Miss O'Neill is Of very great
Importance to me-"
do you mean" Wide-eyed,
she looked her question straight at
him.
That's just what I mean, Diane"
She darned for a minute in
silence. 1t had occurred to Diane
before that perhaps Gordon might
be in love with Sheba, but she had
the thnner1,f
she did not want to believe it.
That's different, Gordon. 1t ex-
platns--and in a way eXcuses-your
coming here and trying to bully
me-" She stopped her work to flash
a question at him. Don't you think
that maybe it's only a fancy of
yours? l remember you used"
He shook his head. mo chance,
Diane. I'm hard hit. She's the
only girl I ever met that suited me.
Everything she does is right Every
move she makes is wonderful"
The eyes with which she looked
at him were softer, as those of
women are wont to be for the true
romance.
You poor boy" she murmured,
and let her hand for a moment rest
on his.
Meaning that I lose?" he asked
quickly.
"I think you do. I'm not sure"
Elliot leaned forward impulsively.
"Re a good sport, Diane. Let me
have my chance too. Why do YOU
make it easy for Macdonald and
hard for me? Isn't it because the
glamor of his millions blinds you ."
He's a big, splendid man, but I !
IL L
he has the power to make life easy
and comfortable for Sheba," sne
defended sturdily.

The news of the day was bullish the primaries being less than the pre- vious week. the exports larger and the crop condition in the important winter wheat states being poor. The agitation for cheaper food in the eastern cities is the most bearish in- fluence and in fact the only element working for a decline. The general interest in the market | has been lacking for some time. and the trade interest is subject to quick changes in sentiment for narrow price ranges.
 Corn-Corn was heavier in sympathy with wheat but as in the past ten days, the derarture from the high prices was slight and reinstatement of sales was at small differences.
 The primaries are larger this week than last. The exports again heavy and the future prospects encouraging to the buyers.
 Oats-Oats were under pressure of larger receipts than shipments and as the bulk of the trading is of cash n- terest, the hedging tendencies for the
 rest of the market slightly up or down
 as the receipts were heavier than the ShipmentS
