House Question (Continued from page one) ♦ bat it will be difficult matter for tie ; builders of this country to catch up I with the demands for residences for several years. In the dwelling house data of fire losses it is found that defective chimI neys and flues held first place with a I total loss of $7,987,687.00. Lightning ) stood second, losses of $4,875,671.00. ) This data shows that nearly a third : j of the fires in homes start from leaky sooty, chimneys and then resulting! I sparks on the roofs. While this city | land community has been very fortun- ■ ;ate by having a small fire less, but he , ilieve an ordinance should be passed) providiny for the safe construction of I chimneys, flues and fire-places and no flue constructed unless lined with fire I brick or flue lining.

dinary practice would seldom exceed ton to fifteen dollars per chimney. . During the past few months, brick being high priced, several very defective flues have been built In this city and surrounding community. As we have a large rubbish pile of brick ‘which were taken from tile kiln-, brick which had been placed under very severe conditions, time after time, heated to a temperature from 1.000 to 2.000 degrees and cooled very rapidly until they became shelly, unfit for our use, have been purchased and used in construction of tines with no lining. Even drain tile have been) used up to the top of the roof and brick placed in top one would believe I that it was an entire brick Hue. Just a few days ago we sold fifteen-inch and twelve-inch drain tile to a well known farmer who made the furnace Hue for his residence, which place could not be’built today for less.then, seven or eight thousand dollars. This ' ue was made by placing the twelve i inch tile inside the fifteen inch and j ; then filling the narrow space with | concrete. What will happen to this flue under h at? The inside tile will expand and in doing so will crack the concrete, nd outer tile, making a space for the] f re to travel and a very hazardous fire | : trap and is really a criminal often t | j against the mothers and children. Strike Spreads (Continued from page one) ready to act in the anthracite coal si l - ; nation brought on by the miners’ “vacation strike’’ in Pennsylvania.

It was expected an appeal will be ’. tie to President Wilson or Sucre i t .ry of Labor Wilson to re-open the case. Steps were to be takign at today's meeting to have the striking miners r . I urn to work. The new contract of two years’ du 1 ration, signed willingly by the operators and under protest by the mine ) workers, is Ir .- ml on the majority re- ' port of the anthracite wage commicsicn apointed by President Wilson to ' readjust wage aiwl working condition in the hard coal field. . | Base Ball BELLMONT PARK Sunday, Sept.

I can’t remember when my meals have tasted as good as they do now. And I’m sure Trutona’s thf cause of my improvement.
