LOSS ESTIMATED AT $4.oOo,0Oo: NATIONAL GUARD PATROL
 LING THE STREETS

OCEAN CITY, N. J. October 12.(P> Swept by fire the heart of this sea- side resort is in ruins. Driven by a brisk wind the blaze started at [ O. clock in the Arcade building and wip- ed out approximately 50 buildings in- cluding hotels, cottages, shop-, and theaters before it was brought under control four hours later.

Nov NE offer you this automatic, proven burner
product of one of the oldest and largest companies
in the business-and the one oil burner that satisfied
our requirements
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1927-09-13

LIVE years ago we recognized oil
l. burning as the modern method
of home heating. We began to in
vestigate many of the oil burners on
the market. We watched various
burners in operation; we studied
their construction; we inquired about
the companies that produced them.
Many of the burners that we in
vestigated were good machines. Prac-
tically all of them were far superior
to old heating methods. But none
of these burners quite satisfied the
standard we had set.
At last we saw Petro in oper-
alton. We studied its construction;
we talked to home owners who had
installed it; we met the men who
manufactured it. Then we were con-
WINGED. We knew that we'd found
really proved oil burner-a burner
we could be proud to sell.

Your Health How To Keep It.
 Causes of Illness

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN | Editor Journal of the American 1 Medical Association and of Hygeia,
 the Health Magazine
 In the early part of the present century men suddenly discovered that food was being prepared with out any reference 10 the possibility of danger to human life from con tamination or from adulteration.
 Then came the passage Of the pure food law and intense reasearch ! in laboratories all over the world to find out means of preservation that would be harmless and means Of preparation that would aid di- gostion.
 One Of the most important points sound, fresh and clean raw prod ucts to begin with. Then con- tamination from shipping or hand ling must be absolutely controlled.
 Food Handlers
 In Newark. New Jersey. between .l | restaurant employees were examined by the health department and 2Sl9 examined by private physicians. During the same period GS77 milk dealers were examined by the de partment and 2992 by private physi- clans. Of these the health depart ment rejected 155 persons for tI- l~n 3
 When the possibility of infection of others is considered the i'm portance Of the elimination ot this considerable number of infected food handlers becomes apparent.
 During the same time these per sons were subjected to tests for the presence of diphtheria germs in the nose and throat and also to blood tests for the presence Of typhoid fever.
 Since all the tests were negative these two forms Of examination have been discontinued. Neverthe- less the presence or diphtheria and of typhoid carriers among people is we'll known. and it will probably be | necessary to tDinlndlc lnItCIcu food handlers with these diseases concerned, or by the far more wasteful method of making cx- aminations after disease begins to appear among the people served. Making It Safe
 It is a far cry from the day when Upton Sinclair's The Jungle" started every one in the world to looking upon meat with suspicion to this modern period when meat inspection, modern methods of re frigeration and shipping, and the control of food handlers make al most anything that can be pur- chased safe for human consump- tion.
 The results are a legitimate re- turn from the tribulations and anxieties of the period when Harvey Wiley, Ladd. Roosevelt and other pioneers made possible the legisla- ton that controls conditions today.

Phil Veritzen's Interest in Eleanor
 Lincoln is Discussed.

Lillian flashed an odd look at mo asI voiced the suggestion that Phil Veritzens violent and ridiculous ob- lection 10 Eleanor Llncoln's posing for Dicky's drawings might be eN- plained by the theory that he had fallen in love with her.
 My dear infant" she draW!ed, you're surely not naive enough to believe that, and fl you don't be- lieve 1t, you surely do not think you can pull any weN-known sheep fleece over my eyes. do you?'
 I flushed hotly, for her inference was plain. Mercilessly she made It unmistakablt.
 Personally, I don't think 1t is possible for old Phil to fall in love with anybody other than himseit,' she said. But for the last ie" months he's been staging q Nry realistic imitation of the emotion which makes the world go round so realistic that l think he's even deceiving himself. And you know as well as l do that the lady IS old .r than Eleanor Lincoln, equally as beautiful, and far more brilliant than our young ncghhor of The Larches. To spare your bushes l won't name her. but if you really want a good look at her, gaze into vour mirror and spar" me any more twaddle on the SuppOSitlon that Phils interest in Miss Lincoln Is an amorous one. But you can mark down one thing in your card index. The astute Mir. Neritzen knows who the young woman is. He wasn sure until tonight. Indeed. when he first saw her he was completely at sea, because he'd made up his mind before he came here. that he knew who she was, and there was something in her looks which threw him completely off the track. He got back on, though, without much delay. You saw that queer, mlrth-

A spectator is. you know, one who looks on. There was some one looking on when little Mrs. Peter gave the danger signal up there Tn the Old Pasture, and Immediately afterward Reddy Fox had an eN- ceedingly hot and uncomfortably time. That some one who was look ing on was Jimmy Skunk. Jimmy had been an interested spectator from the beginning.
 It just happened that Jimmy had poked his head out of the bushes for a look around. there by that patch Of sweet clover. just as Reddy haa poked his head out from the other side. Jimmy had sat down instantly. He had seen that m odest young rab- bit Mrs Pete, out there in the mid dle of the sweet clover. eating qulet- lv and contentedly. He understood at once that Reddy Fox was hunting her. It was no business of his to m terfere with Reddy's plans. He had no particular interest in the young rabbit anyway So Jimmy sat down 10 WdtCn lktluy dIlh 9'' 'N" '' would go about catching that rabbit.
 Then Mrs. Peter appeared, and Jimmy became moro interested than ever. Mrs. Peter must be stupid, thought Jimmy. There must ne something wrong with her. l don't see how she can help seeing Ncddy Fox. vet there she is hopping right along toward him. This promises 10 Nbe exciting
 Now, up to the instant that Mrs Peter thumped tn" ground and brought all the yellowiackCts pour ing out of their nest just in time 10 give Reddy Fox a good s'lnglnE, Jimmy Skunk had had no personal interest in the affair. But right then his interest became very personal. He chucklc1 as he watched kcddy Fox rolling over and over and rub- hing his faco in 'h" grass, trying 10 get rid of those yellow jackets. lou would suppose that Jimmy would have taken great pains to k''p away from that place where in" yellow ia cllcts were. Instead of that, he almost hurried straight toward that very spot. While Roddy FOX was hurrying away from that spot, Jimmy Skunk was hurryin@, or fry - ing to hurry. straight toward that yellowjacketS' nest. Jimmy was sn fat that his hurrying didn't amount 10 much. He almost wabhlod on his feet. As he moved along, he kept licking his lips,
 The instant Jimmy reached th" little hole in the ground. which vas the entrance to that yclloWlaCk"'@ nest. he began digging. Once more the yellowJackets became very very angry. Those still remaining in the nest now came pouring out. Those who had been chasing Rcddy Fox

 When oranges do not figure as the breakfast fruit they can be used some other time during the day as in the dinner salad.
