Mrs. J. r. Rider has ventured in where
all the men in town refused 10 tread.
They feared that the high cost OF labor
would make the ice business unproft-
able. so they decided to let sixteen
inches Of the finest ice Orange county

Rider heard about II, hired a crew of
men and oiled up the portable steam en-
CINE that operates the ice elevators. And
the way those men are working under

U. S. MAY LICENSE
SECURITY ISSUES

The Government proposes to so
mobilize capital directly into productive
lines. A plan under discussion is to have
Government licensing OF private secur-
ity issues. with refusal OF licenses to any
lines deemed unessential to prosecuting
the war. other tentative elements In
the plan are the creation OF a Govern
ment corporation which could absorb
securities in essential enterprises, and
Issuance OF a warning TO the States to
reduce as far as possible expenditures
for all but needed improvements.
Under this proposal. building opera
lions which did not add 10 the war pro-
gram would be discouraged.

Somewhere Over There

After being compelled 10 dine
in the comparative solitude Of
their own billets somewhere on
the battle front in France. officers
of the United states marine corps
and their. associates have formed
group messes. where nothing but
harmony and good cOmradeship
prevail.
A navy chaplain, a preacher, a

z GIRLS, ONE BOY,
COAST|NG, RECEIVE
FRACTUREDL|MBS

Two girls OF Tskoma Park are in
Providence Hospital today as a result
OF a sleigh riding last evening.
Edith Heffner. of 1O7 Carroll avenue,
and Hester Garrish, received broken
legs when their coaster. which was
going down Spring Hill at full speed,
crashed into a pole at the foot Of this
hill
Edith Heffner's legs were broken
above the knees and the other girls
leg below the knee.
At O'Clock yesterday evening
many Takoma Park girls and boys
were gathered on Spring Hill with
their sleds. The hill is covered with
an icy surface. Just at dusk, wher
the Riddles were at the height OF
their fun. piercing cries were heard.
The coasters gathered about two
girls at the foot OF the hill.
Z. Z. Blodgett, who appeared on the
scene with his automobile, carried
them to their homes. Later an ambu-
lance was called. and they arrived at
Providence Hospital about q o'clock.
A boy coming at top speed behind
the girls caused them to lose control
OF the steering gear.
Another coasting accident occurred
today when Thomas Cook, seven-year-
old son OF Capt. Thomas G. Cook, an
army officer, was struck by a sled
on MAcomb avenue shortly before
noon today. Thomas was returning
home with his mother when the sled,
carrying Roger O'Donnell. eleven
years old, struck him, throwing him
to the icy pavement. The mother took
her son in her arms and carried him
to their home a block away. DR..
Nichols was summoned and found
that the boy is suffering from q frac-
ture OF the right leg.
Captain Cook said that the O'Donnell
boy Is in no way to blame for the
accident, as he tried his best to steer
his sled out of the way when he saw
the smaller boy in his path.

The object in advertising is
to increase the demand; the
larger the demand the larger
the Observation-Disclosures, less
cost of production consequent
ly, and the more an article is
advertised and the more it
sells, the cheaper it becomes
to the purchaser. The chief
object, of course, is that the
article advertised is backed up
by quality, as however well
advertised an article may be it
can only keep the sale for a
time If the quality is not there;
in other words, you can fool
some people sometimes, but
you cannot fool all people all

Sport Snapshots
(By Jack Keene.)

War is going to revolutIonize sports
the rules and actual play will be made
in all branches Of athletics when our
soldier boys return.
The aggressive, straightforward,
cleanout spirit tnstilled by military
training will have it's effect. Physical
perfection, obtained in long hours Of
drill, will speed up the active sports.
The war will completely change
the present system of Judging
boxers In a bout, for instance.
The victory will go to the man
who fights, cleveFly and cleanlys
to the man who takes chances to
land q telling blow, who carries
the fight to his opponent.
The man who eYades a rush, who
dances around the ring or who stalls
through the rounds will receive no
consideration.
This doesn't mean that more blood
will be shed In the ring. But 1t Will
mean that the men who become popu-
lar in the public eye will be the box
courage and the science TO stand up In
the ring and give the public its mon
ey's worth of clean, fast boxing.
There will be no false-alarm fight
ers, living on the notoriety won for
them by Ingenious press agents.
This demand for aggFesBiyeneas,
courage and science will incFeage
in every other branch Of sport. 1t
will bring around one of the many
great benefits which win grow
out Of the world conflict.

That the work or fight order has
not seriously affected the sport OF

Jockeys at Saratoga. This Is more
than was ever assembled at one track
before. Closing down racing in Can

track now in operation accounts Tor
the unusual number OF riders. How
