KEEP DAVIS cup
International Tennis Trophy
VIII Not Go to Toxic.
American Team Now Needs But
One More Victory.

Forest Hills. L. L. Sept. 3.-The Da-
Wis cup will not go to Toxic. Amer
famous tennis trophy had this point
all but clinched today as a result of
two victories in the opening singles
matches.
The American team now needs but
one more victory out of three remain
ing matches with the japanese play
ers and if R. Norris Williams and
Watson Washburn win in the doubles
this afternoon, the cup contest will be
over.
The program today was originally
taken up with the doubles match be-
tween the Williams Washburn com
bination and kumagae and Shinidz1
but specially arranged mixed dou-
bles event, with Mile. Lenglen playing
the leading role, seemed destined to
be the real attraction.
The French champion, paired with
Vincent Richards, was scheduled to
meet Mrs. May Sutton Bundy and
Willis E. Davis in an exhibition match.
Mile. Lenglen has recovered from her
throat affection that resulted in her
default to Mrs. Molla B. Mallory in
the recent woman's singles champion
ship, and has been practicing about a
week She is thoroly accIimated now
ana capable of playing the brand of
tennis that won her every European
championship in the woman's division

STOP GAS WASTE
Can Save $50 Billion Cubic Feet
Annually, Bureau Says.
The Present Loss Is a Million
Dollars Worth Daily.

Unless natural gas users check their
present waste of million dollars
worth of gas per day by proper use
Of suitably designed domestic appn-
ancesl they will soon have to do their
cooking with coal or wood, the bureau
of standards OF the department of
commerce declares In order to post
pone the exhaustion of our natural gas
supply, that bureau has carried out
researches which have shown how TO
eliminate the present appalling waste
of $50. 900. 100000 cubic feet of gas
annually.
The supply of natural gas is limited
and the inevitable decline from cur
rent supply will affect half of the gas
using localities of the country or o.
100000 consumers in 2.i0O COM
munities.
A moderate reduction of the pres
sure of the gas will reduce leakage
and will not affect the quality of the
service. Pressure reduction will make
it easier for the company to give good
service. The burners in cook stoves
should be raised to within one inch OF
the bottom of the pans, as the usual
distance of two and one-half inches
wastes gas. Solid tops on gas stoves
also waste gas.
Following are some of the wastes
that ought to be prohibited:
(a) Improper adjustment of appli-
ances, resulting in imperfect combus-
ton.
OBJ Low burners, that is, burners
more than u inches away from the
| cooking vessel on cook stoves.
(c) Solid tops on cook stoves. Grid
| tops or skeleton lids only should be
used.
(d) Use of gas in coal furnaces and
stoves. Especially built gas heating
appliances giving an effic- ency of at
least IS per cent should be used.
(e) No hot water heater should be
used that gives an efficiency of less
than 75 per cent.
/ (f) No tank heater, that is, tank
with burner underneath, should be
used without an outer jacket and flue
connection.
| (g) All daylight burning of lamps
ought to be prohibited.
The prohibition of the foregoing
wasteful uses OF natural gas would
I TAI Greatly improve the quality OF
the service.
OBJ Immediately convert low-pres-
sure conditions into disable service fol-
cooking.
(c) Cut down the needed consump,
ton during the cold-weather period
where the demand is now greater thar
the available supply-so as in effect
! to make more gas avilable for all.
Cd Add Is to 30 years to tbs
period that natural gas will be avail
able for domestic use.
(e) Because of the greatly in
creased efficiencies obtained-eveT
with decidedly higher prices pei
1000 cubic feet-would permit the
domestic consumer to get the SAM
service without a greater annual out
lay of money.
| (f) Permit the many small towns
that are too small for the introduc
ton of manufactured gas to have ga
lservice for a much longer period.

COLORED POPULATION SHORT
Death Rate Is Higher Than Birth
Rate, Reports Show.

With a higher death rate than birth
rate the colored population of Kansas
is apparently decreasing.
H. Lerrigo, chief of the division of
vital statistics of the state board of
health, show 1,048 negro births and
LIE deaths in 1920. In 1919, births
were 911 and deaths 1,071. The ratio
of births to deaths is about two to one
in the white population. Kansas makes
an unusually good showing in this re-
spect, Doctor Lerrigo pointed out, be-
cause the state is comparatively
young.
Two chief reasons are assigned by
Doctor Lerrigo for the Iowa coIored
birth rate as compared to the death
rate. In the first place, birth regis
tration is incomplete. and in the sec
ond place disease is more prevalent
among the colored people than the
white people.
In Kansas, 3.3 per cent of the popu-
lation. is colored and practically all of
them live in the cities where condi-
multiplication. The negro population
is 57,925, according to 1920 census
figures.
"It is evident that public health
work must be carried on to a greater
extent among the colored people," said
Doctor Lerrigo. who called attention
to figures showing that the death rate
from tuberculosis and other infectious
and preventable diseases. as we'll as
homicides is several times as great
among the colored. The high infant
mortality rate also seriously affects
the rate of increase, he said.
