With pride he wears his shabby suit,
And struts In pomp around the
town,
For looks he doesn't care hoot.
He's forcing clothing prices down.

the price of a new outfit, and couldn't
afford one right now. anyway. al
though he'd like to have one.)
So he's a martyr to a cause,
And we give him our praise and
cheers;
His shabbiness gets our applause,
He's starving out the profiteers.

Meadows Wins Speed Demons Pitching Duel In Readiness FromF illinsim For Gas Derby

With a promise of ideal weather, and half-score of famous professional race drivers ready to go to the tape at o'clock, indication point to one of the largest gatherings of motor race fans at the fair grounds track Saturday afternoon that has ever gathered around the his toric mile course to witness a gasoline speed programme.
 Interest reached the point Thursday that movement was started by the Elxs, under whose auspices the races are beiug held, to ask all the automobile dealers and accessory firms to close their places of business Saturday afternoon
 At every racing headquarters Thursday nothing could be found but torn down racng motors in preparation for the big money event on the program, the Elks sweepstakes. a twenty -five-mile race, to , be run in three heats and for which S2, 00O has Been hung up by the Elks. The two Essex entries are reciving most of the comment. due to the surprise they sprung at Atlanta last Saturday. when Haugdahl carried away the fifty-mile event, and it goes without saving that there will be plenty of rail birds at the track today whom both TIaugdaf1 and LamplSin are 1 due to work out their mounts
 A wager was offered the Essex pilots Thursday by some of Leon Duray's , friends that the big Frenchman could turn the fair grounds track from S-5 Go sec ond faster than either of them. and re- touest was made the racing committee to put time trial event on the programme. A novelty event was added to the pro l gramme when the tire service firms of the city agreed to put one service cas each. with a crew, into open competltion in a tire changing contest. The cars
 with their crews riding. start from the
 tape drivei one lap of the track. stop IT

 pressure of sixty pounds in the tire whef

 At o'clock this evening all the racine
 cars. polo cars and all the tire servict crews to take part in the contest art
 scheduled to parade from the Elks' clui south on Nineteenth street to First ave snue. west on First avenue to Twentieti

To Supply Natural Gas Deficiency.
1t is expected that in the near fu-
ture artificial gas for heating pur
poses will be substituted largely for
natural gas in the Pittsburgh and 9TH
err districts where considerable
shortage in supply of natural gas has
developed. This was the prediction
made at conference held recently
under the auspices of the public serv-
ice commission in Pittsburgh. The
Philadelphia company, which has been
a large supplier of natural gas for
many years, it is stated, is now pre-
pared to supply 1000, 900 cubic feet of
artificial gas per day, and expects in
the near future to be able to supply
sc. 900 900 cubic feet of artificial gas
per day.
