ARETO CELEBRATE

York store under the present man
agement begins tomorrow
Since taking charge of the store
Sent. %, 1920, the owners, David
Brady and Alec Waxenburg, have
met and successfully dealt with
>,vo great difficulties. Buying the
store while prices were at their
height they were almost immedl-
ately hit by the business slump, and
on APRIL % last, fire wrecked the
entire third floor. Immediately art
or the fire a record-breaking sale
was staged and as rapidly as pos
sible damaged parts of the store
we're refnished and restocked.
In spite of business depression
the store has grown in the last
year from 20 departments to So
Principal departments added are
mems clothing. boys clothing, hats;
house furnishings and a bargain
basement, the largest in either Mo-
line or Rock Island, selling gro
ceries. meat and mems work
clothes. Staff Aof the store has
grown from 80 to lis.
Proprietors of the store are more
| than pleased with the stores sue
cess. They believe that n Moline
| they have a field for operations
that is second to none among COM
nunities of this size. They are
making it their effort to serve the
community and to give it the great
| est possible values for the leas
| money.

COUNCIL MEET TO
DECIDE COURSE ON
CAR COMPANY CASE

Moline's attitude on the petition
of the railway company will be de-
cided at a special meeting of the
city council to be held early this
evening. James NJ. Johnston. city
attorney, will appear at the COM
merce commission meeting. which
will be held in Chicago. He will
take whatever course is outlined
for him by the council. The atti-
tude of the majority OF Moline aid
ermen is expected to be about as
follows:
Moline will not oppose a trial OF
one-man cars and the new fare
plan provided the citizens of MO
line receive some benefits from the
change.
Moline councilmen appear to be-
lieve that if the changes are bene-
fetal, the people of Moline should
receive the benefits in the way OF
cheaper fares and right of way i'm
provements.
The principal right of way i'm
provements sought by Moline are
| pavement on Fifteenth street, ex
| tension of the Fourth avenue line
, on Twenty-seventh street and pave
ment of Twenty-third street be
tween Third and Fourth avenues.
MAYOR C. P. Skinner, although
not going into details of these de
mands. appears to hold the opinion
| as outlined here That probably Ii
the view of most aldermen and also
of citizens generally.
| The new fare system would en-
able purchasers of monthly tickets
at so cents each to ride for . cents
Persons not holding these tickets
would pay 10 cents a ride Tnl'

MAN WITH BROKEN
BACK STILL LIVES

Sterling, Ill, Sept 1.-THE con-
dition of Eliza NJ OHare, who is
confined in the Sterling public hos
pital with a broken back and sew
cred spinal cord, is about the same.
He is reported TO be resting easy.
He is in little pain. However, there
is no hopes of his recovery as he is
totally paralzyed below the waist.
An operation was performed
Monday afternoon to ascertain the
extent of the injury and it was
found that the spinal cord had been
severed in addition to sustaining
fractured vertebra. The break was
in the small of his back and the
severing of the spinal cord is the
cause of the paralysis below the
waist.

500 ALLOWANCE
Many Spend Too Much for Food
Between Meals, Says
Mary Hauk.

The, average University woman has a
monthly allowance of 500, and even the
most economical students find themselves
spending 1904 a year. On the basis Of
these figures Miss Susan Blakey Of the
home economics department worked out
a budget for the University women which
she presented at the Y. W. c. A. meet
ing yesterday.
The college woman enters school with
enough clothes from home TO last her for
a time. She replenishes and adds to her
wardrobe gradually. At Christmas, in the
spring and in August, she does most Of
her buying. Ii does not cost ner as
much to live at home as it does at school.
OF her allowance S28 is expended for
food, $3.50 for rent, $3.50 for clothes
and SIS for higher life. including books
and stationery as well as lectures, con.
ceHs or plays.
Miss Mary Hauk showed how the Uni
versity " omen were wasting their money.
The speaker had questioned many Of her
friends, and from their answers believed
they were spending too much for food
between meals. She gave three reasons
Tor a students over eating: she wants to
be sociable, she is self-indulgent or lazi-
ness causes her to substitute a physical
desire for mental activity. The doctor

Before this student goes to his dinner

University to see if his name is posted
on the American Relief list for breakfast.
His ewes go up and down the sheet, but
he turns away. The expression on his
face is painful to see. He was not quite
weak enough, his tubercular condition
rot bad enough, for him to eat!
These are the conditions drawn from
