PURITY OF NATURAL ICE
Common Notion That Manufactured
Article ls Best Shown to BE
FalIacy.

The common remark that natural
ice Is not So pure as the manufactured
kind Is somewhat of a fallacy. Practi-
cally 90 per cent of all the impurities
are cast Off by nature In the process
of freezing The remainder Of the i'm.
puritles that are included In the Ice
die in transportation. Sometimes. OF
course. even In Il healthy flowing
stream. nature slips up and a germ
does get locked up In an Ice crystal.
but this is usually the finish Of the
troublesome germ, for though the cold
does not often kill him the fact he can
not roam about and search for food
brings on starvation. Some germs die
quickly, others live week, while
laboratory tests show that the typhoid
germ lives longest-its maximum limit
Of life while frozen In Ice being
placed at three months. Since natural
Ice is usually stored at least ninety
days before II Is shipped to market.
the matter Of its purity need not be
doubted. Many tests Of natural Ice
have shown that Il Is far more pure
than the city water Of most communi.

MANY FAIRIES IN GREEN ISLE


There still are fairies In Ireland, de-
clares the Ulster Folklore. which ex-
plains by saying: To many. perhaps.
this statement will be really news. or
course. anyone who has never taken
any interest In the matter at all knows
that In the days gone by there were
plenty Of them from one end Of the
green isle to the other--are not their
old haunts. the thorn bushes. their
raths. forts. coves and souterraines
still to be found In every corner Of
Ireland just as they have existed
since time out Of mind?
But II has been the general belief
that the fairies themselves long ago.

saken or been driven from their Sc
cret places. the last hegira being
placed at as modern q period as the

OF few that landed In Scotland.

told they had been blown away 80
years ago by = great storm. and the
csretaker at Killevy said they had
gone TO Scotland. They are, however.
supposed still to lnhabIt the more re.

people have many stories Of fairy Wis.

It's beginning was the wassail bowl. be-
longing to festivities antedating the
Christian era. and that on the advent
OF Christianity the custom Of wassail-
ing assumed a religious aspect. The
monks called the wassail bowl the
"pocalum caritatis" Qovlng cup). The
ceremony of drinking from one cup
and passing II around was observed
at the Jewish pascal supper and on
other notable occasions.

Sparklers.

The Commissioners have decided
that they cannot prohibit, in season
for Independence day, the "sparklers'
that are so popular with children or
that occasion. Yet it has been proved
by fatal accidents elsewhere and by
experiments conducted by the health
officer that these toy fireworks are
highly dangerous. The sparks are ca
pable Of igniting clothing. This has
been shown in tests lately conducted
by DR.. Fowler. The police records OF
other cities bear numerous evidences
of the sparkler danger, children hav
ing been badly burned and even killed
by this means. 1t is, Furthermore, fire.

'The Red Flag of Rebellion.

One phrase in the letter of DR.. Van
Schaiek, president of the school board
to the Rotary Club committee that
drafted resolutions, later adopted by
the club, urging the retention of Supt.
Thurston, calls for particular con-
sideration. The school board head
says that when the board "decently
gave him advance notice" that it was
mot pleased with him." and that he
would not be reelected, the superin
tendent of schools raised the red
flag of rebellion against constituted
authority and challenged every prin.
ciple of orderly direction of govern
ment."
The meaning of this language is
that the superintendent of the school.
when notified that he would not be re-
elected had no right whatever to ques
ton the boards authority. He should
have accepted this advance notice
which was secretly conveyed, ant
gone about finding another job.
Had the superintendent done this
had he bowed his head to the az, h,

More Railroad Striking.

Hope is expressed that the railroad

of the operatives with the slow action
of the railroad wage board, will not
become general. Another tie-up of
railroad operations covering a wide
area would be most disastrous to the
welfare of the country. Industry has
Just about recovered from the check
it received in April from the switch
mems strike, which, though it lasted
but few days in full effect, was
nevertheless the cause of freight
blockades enduring for several weeks.
In a. highly organized system like
the railroads of this country any stop
page on any point has bad effect
everywhere. 1t is impossible to stop
the trains at any terminal or impor-
tant junction point without throwing
back the traffic in all directions. These
local strikes at Baltimore and Phila-
delphia, even though they do not
spread, may cause enormous losses
throughout the eastern seaboard.
The railroad wage board was to have
rendered its decision within a certain
time. 1t has failed to do so by few
days and the strike has occurred as
a protest. 1t is evidently not ordered
but, like the strike of April, is appar.

lacking in the qualities required by
the board and that the boards indict-
ment Of him for ineficiency was sound.
He would have stood confessed as an
incompetent before the community
which he had served so long.
There is no constituted authority in
this country SO absolute that it can
commit an injustice without appeal.

seek employment. 1t was far more

Fair Play for Mr.. BRYAN.

Some of Mr.. Bryan's opponents, ii
is reported from San Francisco, are
planning to keep him as much in the
background as possible. They fear
the effect of too free swing by him
on the floor of the convention.
This maneuver, if possible of exc
cution, will have to be executed with
extreme care. Mr.. Bryan is not easily
handled in that way. He likes the
limelight, knows where it is, and how
to reach it; and if he should discover
an effort to deprive him Of a fair
share of it at the convention would
plunge for it with great energy.
There will be many delegates and
spectators at San Francisco who have
never seen Mr.. Bryan in convention
action. They have heard of his per-
formance at Chicago in 1896, when he
nominated himself; at Kansas City in
1904, when he tried to prevent the
nomination Of Judge Parker; at Bal.
timore in 1912, when he nominated
Woodrow Wilson; and the three
stories invest the man with a good
deal of interest.
Mr.. Bryan in action at San Francisco
should appeal very strongi.- to those
who appreciate ginger in a national
convention. He will be present with
program, and conscious of the fact
that not a single item on it can be
carried except after a fight. He has
"come back" after some years of par
tial eclipse, and hence is in fighting
mood. Every step he takes, therefore,
and every word he utters will have a
definite object in view, and be search
ed for suggestions by both friends and
foes.
Let US hope, in the interest of fair
play as well as of the gayety of the
occasion, that Mr.. Bryan gets square
deal, and has opportunity to- address
the convention on all matters that ap-
peal to him.

Retention of the Elder Clerks.

Secretary Payne, to whom his fellow
cabinet members left the question of q
policy in the retention of superan.
nuated government employees under
the new retirement law, has made a
statement that brings comfort to those
department workers who are more
than seventy years old and have not
a sufficient record of service to entitle
them to retirement with annuity. He
recommends that each department
head be required to ascertain and
certify whether the person in ques-
ton should be retained, and, if so, to
issue certificate of retention.
As The Star has heretofore urged
the retirement law should be inter
preted and applied in the spirit of its
purpose, to provide living compensa-
ton for those who have reached a
certain age and are beyond the range
of actual efficiency, and not to effect
the summary dismissal of any person
without annuity. Secretary Paynes
recommendation is in line with that
purpose.
If there are any employees over sew
enty years of age who have not served
fifteen years it is because the civil
service rules have been waived to some
extent in their admission. They are in
the service because the government
has been particularly anxious to have
them. Having accepted them beyond
the usual age limit of entrance, the
government has assumed an equity of
obligation toward them. If the usual
rules regarding entrance had been
strictly observed there would today be
no such cases.
1t is probable that most, if not all, of
those who, lacking full fifteen years
Of service, are now beyond the statu-
tory retirement age can rightfully be
classed as still efficient for the dis
charge of their duties, at least until
they have acquired full retirement
status. To follow the strict ruling of
the Attorney General in this matter
and arbitrarily and automatically dis
miss these people would be to infict
upon them a grave injustice and to
begin the execution of the retirement
law in a manner altogether contrary
to the plain purpose for which it was
enacted.
