A CITY BEAUTIFUL

At least two members of the town council are in favor of a cleanup" day for Cordova. These Solons have advocated that "Cordova the City Beautiful would be an appropriate slogan. There is no time like the present to inaugurate the movement The effect will be pleasing to our selves as we'll as to the tourist As an advertisement a clean city com pares favorably with space in the Daily Times.
 COrdova will undoubtedly entertain more visitors this year than formerly and clean streets make a lasting i'm pression.
 Personal pride should be sufficient inducement for cleanliness. Competi- tion and shame often cause the de- sired result, but if necessary an or dinance should be passed by the coun- Gil making it compulsory for tenants and property owners to remove the debris and unsightly winters accumu- latiOns from their premises.
 Cleanup day should not be confined to First avenue. In the main First avenue presents a respectable ap- pearance, but there are several eye sores that should be removed. For instance, there is a miniature pro tluction of Child's glacier on First avenue that is anything but attrac- tive. Ice, clean ice, is all very well in it's proper place the refrigerator or ice wagon; but dirty ice on First av. ,enue is neither a recommendation for Cordova nor the property owner nor the tenant.

HOME GUARDS
 ROUNDING INTO
 COOD SOLDIERS

The Home Guard drilled on the baseball grounds last evening, as the weather was favorable and the off, cers wish to keep the men together as much as possible.
 After being lined into company front the men were divided into platoons of three squads each, and instructed in some of the more com plicated squad and platoon move ments. After an hour of this the platOons were thrown back into com pany formation and drilled by Capt. Gillis for the next half hour Then the company was marched up town and after roll call was dismissed.
 Captain Gillis made new appoint ments last night as follows: F. A. Jones, left guide under Calvin Haze let; P. H. Singleton, sergeant, and John Muller, left guide, under D. Czerwenka, and A. Courtright, left guide under Ivan Suppheiin.
 Word is being awaited concerning the guns and equipment which have been consigned to the guard If some information is not received on the steamship Alameda, Captain Gillis declared, a tracer would be sent after them at once.
 At the next drill, Friday, May 24, the men will assemble at their vari- ous halls and, if the weather permits, will march to the baseball grounds and drill there

EMORIAL DAY

Are the people of Cordova going to overlook Memorial day? If not, it is high time some concentrated effort was made to arrange a program fit ting to the occasion. May 30 is day apart and will be recognized in every town and city in the United States, from the effete East to the wind-swept plains of the West; from the sunny South to the land of the midnight sun.
 Memorial day is a national holiday. The banks, postoffice and public of fees will be closed. 1t is especially appropriate that the day be observed in Cordova this year, not alone for what the day means and stands for to liberty-loving citizens, but in recogni tion of the American soldiers fighting for the just cause in the great war Never let it be said that Cordova passed the bet.

GOOD PROGRAM AT B|G SRCW
 MONDAY NIGHT

All Cordova is anxiously looking forward to the night of May 27. All previous engagements have been can celed and the books closed Like grape nuts, there's a reason" viz, the big vaudeville production, com posed absolutely of local talent.
 This is a genuine patriotic move ment and the net proceeds will be given to the Red Cross war fund. It is not patriotism or humanity alone that has caused the demand for tick cts, which are on safe at the Northern and Cordova drug stores; but the the ater-loving people of Cordova realize that the wig vaudeville production will be of exceptional merit.
 Far be it from the Daily Times to enter into the personal qualifications of the individual artists. Enough to make the assertion that company as a whole is galaxy of stars.
 Several of the performers have re- fused fattering offers from the Or pheum circuit. Several others have aspirations. In any event, the pa irons of the big vaudeville produc- tion will not be disappointed. Under the capable management of Mrs. Nina Nichols the members of the company are faithfully practicing their parts, and by next Monday will be letter perfect. The different members are entering into the affair with patri otic spirit which spells success. So that the people of Cordova may real ize the treat which is in store for them at the Empress theater the night of May 27, the Daily Times pub fishes the program, as follows:

BOYS WRECK
HOUSE OF HATE
Twenty-seven Arrested at Co.
lumbia For Destroying
Goods in Storage

Columbia. Pa, June 26.-Chief of
Police Samuel Campbell and Con-
stable Frank ]. Bair have rounded
up twenty-seven boys who are ac-
cused by Theodore L. Urban, a re-
tired merchant, with having made a
rendezvous of a large store room
which he formerly occupied, and
which in late years he has used as a
storage room. The boys, who range
in age from ten to seventeen years,
are charged with malicious mischief
and trespass. At a hearing before
Justice McCracken it developed that
the place became known among the
boys as The House of Hate" and
when they gathered there il was for
the purpose of defacing the prop
erty and scattering goods in all di-
rections. They tore out gas fixtures
and pipes, broke skylights and Win
dow panes. and scattered buttons,
lace, embroidery, silk, hosiery, rib
bons and other goods found in the
place, which, in late years has been
used to store them. They also scat
tered about ten thousand small ci-
gars, and destroyed cameras and a
number of negatives many of which
the owner will be unable to replace.
Mr.. Urban estimates his loss at from
$500 to $1,000.
At the hearing ten of the boys
were discharged for lack of evil
dence and the other seventeen were
held over for a further hearing on
June 20.

Gettysburg, Pa, June 26.-The
Adams county price-fiXing committee
at its meeting to fix the price of ne

some interesting questions in the way
Of variations of prices in different
sections of the county. The principal
thing brought out was the difference
N The price of butter throughout the
county, and as a result the commit
tse decided to add bread. butter and
f@SS to the list of household neces-
sites on which figures should be
paced. 1t was revealed that some
grocers were paying as low as thirty
cents a pound for butter, while in
Gettysburg they were paying from
forty to forty-two cents. A sliding
scale was accordingly adopted for
this week. dependent on the quality
of the butter. and the retail price will
be from thirty-five to forty-five cents.
The committee also reported to Food
Administrator Markley that grocers
were selling goods below the price
liked by the committee, but the ad-
ministrator was of the belief that
there was no way to prevent this, but
that the chief idea of the price-fiX-
ing was to prevent the retailers from
selling above the figures set.
