months. There will be two or three
men on each OF the wagons and trucks.
The wagons will cover carefully plan
ned, set regular routes each day. The
routes will be short where houses and
population are densest and longer
where the houses are more scattered.
Fully loaded each wagon will carry
from 2 II to tons of ice. There will
be no necessity of these wagons re-
turning to the plant when the supply
is exhausted as they will be reloaded
from time to time by the big trucks
carrying much more ice which will
travel about the city filling these sup
ply wagons.
Ice will cost the consumer so cents
per 100 pounds. There will be no de-
liveries made to ice-boxes of less than
% pounds. Side walk deliveries of 10
pounds will be made. Persons desir-
ing less than the minimum ice box
delivery of IS pounds will be able to
get it on sidewalk deliveries or by get
ting it direct from the wagons with
regular coupon checks.
Coupon Books.
Hodgins says the delivery men lose
a great deal of time on the routes by
persons desiring to purchase coupon
books who either do not have the
exact amount ready or have to write a
check. The coupon books come in
combinations of 100 pounds and it is
a simple matter to figure the number
of hundreds desired at 60 cents a hun
bred. Care in this matter will save the
delivery men a great deal of time.
Altho it is not generally known, this
company will make free deliveries to
destitute families where sickness pre-
walls upon orders from the Provident
association, and other similar welfare
organizations.

MASONS CELEBRATE EASTER
Ceremonies Carried Out Sunday b,
Topeka Lodges.


The ceremonies by which the va
rious Masonic orders observe Easter
were all carried out in Topeka Sun
day.
The Scottish Rite ritual of the re-
lighting of the temple lights, which
were extinguished on Maunday Thurs
day while the temple remained in
darkness, was carried out Easter
morning. The services were in charge
of Frank L. Sturges, Wise Master OF
the Knights of the Rose Croix, and
Owen j. Wood, past wise master.
The story of the resurrection, which
was sy1nbolized by the relighting OF
the temple lights, was read from the
scriptures by William A. Tinker, and
an Easter address was given by AL
fred Docking of Manhattan. The
Scottish Rite quartette furnished mu-
sic.
Topeka Commandery No. 5 of the

ABOLISH FRIENDLY SUITS
Declaratory Judgment Law Is an I'M
portant Measure.

DCCldFAtOFy OuuSIuGHt 1ldW Is an lin
portant Measure.
Perhaps one of the most Important,
progressive and far-reacllng laws
passed by the session of the Kansas
legislature that has just adjourned
was the declaratory judgment law that
takes effect upon publication in the
official state paper Altho similar
enactments have been in force in Eng
land for generations, Wisconsin and
New Jersey are the only states in the
United States that now have declara-
tory judgment statute, and thus Kan
sas again helps to blaze the trail into
the sacred legal wilderness"
The question of enacting a declara-
tory judgment law was first called to
the attention Of the state bar associa-
| ton by Justice Rousseau A. Burch. of
the state supreme. court, in January.
1920. and was again discussed and ia
vorably considered at the meeting of
the bar association last November.
Then W. W. Harvey. speaker of the
house of representatives, and Senator
Benjamin F. Hegler. of Wichita, be-
came interested in the matter and a
ally understood was drawn by Justice
Burch.
The principal features of this new
law, as seen from the standpoint of a
layman, is that it does away with the
necessity of framing up a friendly
suit in order to find out just what
the rights of contesting parties are;
that 1t makes it possible for the courts
to pass upon statutes and ordinances
before there is an actual case where
an effort is being made to invaidate
, them; and that it gives to the courts
the power to declare what the law
might be under certain contingencies

ice AND SERVICE
They'll Go Hand i'm Hand i'm To-
peka This Summer.
One Hundred Men Employed by
Ice Company.

A high degree of systematic eff
ficiency that was first brought out as
necessity of the high pressure war
period and its accompanying scarcity
of labor, is to be the continued founda-
ton basis of The Topeka Ice company.
according to II. A. Hodgins, who with
Robert T. Billiard, organized The To-
peka Ice company for the delivery of
ice in Topeka.
The Topeka Ice company does not
make ice and has no interest in any of
the local ice manufacturing companies.
The company will buy outright. under
contract specifications, Hodgins says,
all the ice from local makers which
it will resell and deliver to the do
nestle trade.
Since there are ten complaints on
cording to the records of ice dealers,
the aim of the company will be to rem
der that efficient type of service
against which there will be only a
minimum amount of complaint. The
cooperation of consumers in notify
ing the management of the company
of all legitimate complaints will be OF
great assistance to them in rendering
service. All complaints of non-deliv-
cry should be received in the main Of
flee before O'Clock in the afternoon
if the missed consumer is to be sup
piled with ice on the late emergency
