six cups OF coffee. Sometimes down

For luncheon the former president
usually too soup. two kinds of
vegetables. a meat order, a double

six cups of coffee, pie and q special
order of cake.
The oft repeated statements that
Roosevelt never smoked are notNcor-

Ordinance Results
III New Oil Station

4, Fargo, N. D., Aug. 1s.-Twenty
minutes after the city commission
defeated the proposed ordinance pro-
hibiting the erection of filling stations
within the city fire limits, a building
permit was taken out by the Hughes
Oil company of Montana, for the Nerec-
ton of a gasoline filling station on
Broadway.
Several amendments to the propo9-
ed ordinance were voted down before
the original measure was brought be-
fore the commission for its second and
final reading.
One. of the amendments read that
that the ordinance should not affect
or apply to the filling stations or
storage stations now erected and OPP
Grating within the city fire limits. The
city commission was informed that II
the ordinance passed in such a form
it would create a monopoly in favor
Of those in existence4n selling gas to
the public.
