The Unkno,on Quantity

HARVEY HUNT examined the road
IL carefully for several hundred feet
in either direction from the abandoned
automobile, but II yielded nothing
definite as to what had transpired.
There were tire marks in plenty. but
those of the abandoned car lay over
them all, except those of Hunts own
roadster. The criminologist noted that
the abandoned car had been swung
sharply across the road from the right
to the left hand side. where 1t had been

WINTER WEATHER
is PREDICTED BY
LAST THREE DAYS

Rain can be expected during all
of December.
January will be slightly cold
ard partly cloudy.
February will be fun of sur
shine.
There will be no need Of a
weather man for the next three
months, since the forecast for the
Writer is a positive fact. At least,
Hugh McBain, an aged Civil war
veteran OF Peoria, believes so and
he makes his prediction from the
weather during the first three days
OF December. The first day desig-
mates the December weather, the
second is a criterion Of January
temperature, and the third tells IN
"a hours what February will be
like.
1t rained all day Thursday in
Rock Island, yesterday had a pleas
ant coldnees and still it vas part
ly cloudy, and today appears to be
an ideal sunshiny day.
There is an old saying hand
ed down from the Dutch that the
first three days OF December rule
the winter" explains McBaip.
"As a saying it works well, too.
I've watched it many years, and
1t is pretty reliable. OF course. it's
Just a saying, but it's a good one"
Lots OF people predict a hard
winter" says McBain- But I can't
see it that way. 1 look for a rather
rainy, mild winter. You know we
haven't had much rain This wear.
The summer was dry and they say
extremes follow each other. And
too, we haven't had a rainy winter
for some years, and are just about
due for one this year"

spurned, has a counterpart IN
Iowa. Fred Goodwin of Brighton,
first husband OF Laura PHO, now
facing trial in Davenport on a big

tendorf without the formality OF a
divorce from Goodwin. Mrs. Good
win, or Mrs. PHO, was arrested a
few days ago as she was about to
board a Rock Island train to go to
Brighton Her arrest was caused
by PHO who fled the charge of

a year ago but lived with him for
a few months only and returned to
her former husband.

Proposed Ordinance Attacked.

Rock Island, Dec. editor
Argus: The people Of Rock Island
should be made more fully aware
through your columns of the ef-
forts five or six architects of the
city are putting forth to secure an
ordinance permitting them to tell
how the other $4,000 people OF the
city should build their homes.
The services of a competent
architect for plans or for s~upervis-
ing construction have always been
and will continue to be secured for
the construction Of large or COM
plfcated structures. The architects,
however. are asking that any struc-
ture costing over $500 be permit
ted only if plans are secured from
them. With present prices many
homes or small fats or store build
ings will cost over that figure, If
the complete cost is counted.
Rock Island has a building ordi-
N which covers all essential
safeguards, specifying size OF
joists, rafters, and all dimension
material that enters into the con-
struction of buildings, large or
small, and thickness of walls
where brick or tile are used. The
ordinance also regulates the in
stalIing of all plumbing and wiring,
The city employs three competent
men, a building inspector, a plumb
ing inspector and IN electrical in
spector, who issue permits and
make final inspections of all work
done to see that the ordinance is
complied with.
The present building ordinance
surely covers all necessary points
for safety. And it is surely the
privilege of the home builder to
lay out the rooms to suit himself,
and to select his " finishing ma
terial, sash, frames, varnish, etc.
Then why should the services of an
architect be required to add a big
fee to the already high cost Of a

remaining $4,000 will be for the
construction of the pool and bath
house.
