KISS BAN NOW LIFTED.
Former Sanitation Expert Finds De-
natured Sa utation Unsatisfactory.

Huntington, W Va, Dec. O.-Dr. z.
". Grover, former city health officer,
who originated the sanitary kiss a
year or 50 ago, has retreated from hls
position. He now announces the fol-
lowing policy
"All men are born free and equal,
endowed with certain inalienable rights
among these being life, liberty and the
right of unrestricted osculation
He said he had reached thus con
clusion after more than year Of careful
consideration Of the general subject Of
kissing. He formerly believed there
might be considerable exchange OF
disease germs resulting from osculstion-
DR.. Grover achieved fame over 8 year
ago by preparing wire frame, some
thing on the order of 3 fly swatter,
covered with medicated gause, for the
sanitary kiss. He received communi-
cations from all parts of the country
regarding the sanitary kiss. In Los
Angeles. some of DR. Growers nieoes
insisted that in ms boyhood days the
physician had q reputation for kissing
Young ladies and they couldnt under
stand his new attitude He was both
commended and condemned on all sldes.

MERCHANTS AID SEAL CAMPAIGN.
Announce Anti Tuberculosis Fight In
Store Advertising.

Mayor Taylor has suggested that
because of the weather the community
Christmas celebration planned to be held
at Tenth and Market streets be staged
indoors with big Christmas tree placed
in the corridors Of the Public Building.
MIR. Ferguson, acting executive officer
of the Wilmington Community Service,
which is arranging programs for the eight
evenings of the celebration, when asked
today about the Mayors suggestion
said that the Service welcomed the idea of
two Christmas trees. One for indoors
and another outside.
He said that this left an alternative
insofar as staging two Christmas trees
and providing entertainment for those
who desired to attend an indoor Christ
mas fete In the event that the Mayor
proceeds with plans for an indoor cele-
bration, the Community Service will
not use penny of the appropriation
that City Council made for the celebra-
ton but will try and finance the celebra-
tion in other ways
Workers IN the Christmas Seal cam
paign are grateful for the manner with
which the merchants are helping in the
sale of the seals. Many of the big store

paign an their regular advertisements and
suggesting TO those who want to aid
the fight against tuberculosis to buy
Christmas Seal bonds which come IN
denominations up TO 500.
The seals now that the booths have
been withdrawn are for sale at the larger
stores or Mt headquarters, in the Church
building and also at the post office booth.

CHRISTMAS TRADE
NEVER SO HEAVY
People Buy Regardless of Cost
and Dollars Value is Un-
known Factor

Merchants of this city declare that the
revenues derived this season from Christ
mas shopping are higher than ever be-
fore in the history of their establishments
notwithstanding the increased prices.
One of the jewellers of Wilmington
sa'd that the people do not seem to
realize the value of the dollar, that they
are spending right and left, regardless OF
the prices, especially mems gifts in the
jewelry line This he attributes to the
fact that great many of the men who
were overseas have returned
A member of the firm of q large music
store said that their. business had in
creased at least one third and would have
been more if they had been able to get
the necessary stock.
Statements from one of the men q
furnishing stores say that they have all
the business they can handle and that
the people are spending every cent that
they have" and that this is .one of the
best seasons the store ever had
One of the members of firm operating
a large department store said that their
customers were buying more this year and
OF the better grade, not being contented
with the cheaper articles. He snid that
those who bought articles for 50 or rs
tfHLS ttiSh year are bUyiHk tue Sstif tilhf-
this year, but of better grade and pay
ing 81 so and 81 He also stated that
their stock of TOYS went faster than ever
that at this date last year they had sold
but about half of the stock, while this
season the shelves arc almost empty now
This is due, to tho fact that the people
are taking more and more every year to
the shop early education.
Statements from another department
store say that their trade IL increased
this year and that their patrons are buying
of the better grade, regardless of the
price.
Summed up briefly. the people of
Wilmington seem To have more money
this wear and arc spending more lavishly
than ever before, wanting the better
class of articles, notwithstanding the
costs.

Sentence on Benjamin Wcinstock De
fcrred for One Week.


Benjamin Wcinstock appeared before
Judge Morris in Federal Court this
morning to change his former plea to
guilty on the charge of robbing the mail
OF a money order for $50 last August. He
WAS employed as substitute letter

hended Mt Hawaii by Federal officials and
brought back after chase of ll,O00
miles.
District Attorney Cmlev told to the
court that the second count of the indict-
ment had been dropped. The defendnnt's 9
counsel, Edward Glenn Cook, asked
leniency for his client on account Of his
age, which is but IL, he having committed
perjury in claiming to be over lS when
taking the Civil Service examination for
his postoffice job.
Judge Morris asked Mr.. Curley 10 look
up the possibility of n commitment to
some other institution than the Federal
prison at Atlanta, and granted recess
for the purpose. Mr. Curley's information
being that he would be received in the
National Training School for Boys Mt
Washington, ID. c., Weinstock WAS recon-
mitted to the care of the marshal pending

With q magnetic, even II the electric
starter fails, IL IS srtiil possible - crank

spark, 2s the latter IS very not ana fat and
will burn a much leaner mixture than =
possible with battery ignition This
Of course, Is scientific fact and has been
proved by numerous tests.
There Is no doubt that Dattery-ignitlon
systems are excellent for the purpose IN
almost any kind Of weather, but at no

when magnetic ignition q used. and this
fact is more sharply and strIkngiy ev-

year.
Not only for starting, but for running
everywhere, the superiority of the mag
