L GETS INFORMATION ABOUT NEW SHOPS New members of the South Side Improvement association lose no time in becoming Inspired with the hustling spirit of that organization. W. E. Morris, accepted as a member last evening, put the association In touch with the Ogden Manufacturing company of Columbus, Ind., makers of automobile accessories. The company Is seeking a new location. It employs from twelve to seventeen men, has $7,500 worth of business on Its books, and occupies 1,500 square feet of space. - Will Bartel called attention to the Community Welfare league, which has a list of 100 factories, anxious to leave larger cities and locate In smaller ones. The secretary was instructed to get into touch' with the league. BAVIS WILL PRESENT LIGHT PLANT MERGER Alfred Bavis will present the merger of the two light plants before . the South Side Improvement association at the meeting on Tuesday February 1. His speech will follow the discuBion of the location of the south side bridge between representatives of the South Side and the South West Side Improvement association. Members Were urged to get out a large attend ance for this meeting. The South Side association is planning to attend a meeting of the South West Side organization soon. John Reed has invited the members "to visit the pretty school house" In which his organization meets. SOUTH G (Continued From Page One.) Richmond, and insist that they take action on the south side bridge. The board of directors of the assoc iation has abandoned all efforts to force the South L street location, is satisfied with any site south of South K street, and prefers South G to South F street. Opposition to South F street centers on the proximity of the C. & O. viaduct. South H is opposed because if the bridge is level, South Fifth street will be far below the elevation and the bridge would terminate on South Sixth street, which is regarded too narrow for a main thoroughfare. If the bridge is built to strike the South H street grade It would be on an incline like the present Main street bridge. The South G street site has the advantage of debauching on South Fifth street, a broad thoroughfare, and one of the main arteries of travel leading toward Main street. The bridge here would be level. President Blickwedel read the old petition which was presented to the county commissioners on Oct. 22, 1903, asking that the $10,000 excess c." C. R. & M. railroad subsidy Ir for the construction of a bridf of South E street, adducing th: argument for the justice of k the bridge below this street. Alfred Bavis said he was looking toward relief from the congested traffic condition on Main street by routing some of it over a south side bridge. He had discussed the routing of the T. H. I. & E. interurban cars over a south side structure, with Superintendent Jeffries of that line. Would Help Congestion. Mr. Bockhoff contended the traction company would be glad to find relief for the Main street problem by coming into the city over a bridge in the southern part. "We have $100,000 in the special bridge fund of the county now," said Mr. Blickwedel. "We are not asking for a new appropriation. All we want is that the commissioners consent to build the bridge, for the money is there." The fight with the South West Richmond Improvement association over the location of the south side bridge was brought appreciably nearer a solution when John Reed, representing the west side faction, and Adolph Blickwedel, president of the south side organization, agreed that both sides could not let an arbitrary spirit of discord stand in the way of an agreement. The west side contingent owing to sickness was unable to attend the "meeting which was arranged to iron out the difficulties concerning the site. but John Reed, acting as west side spokesman, arranged for a meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 1, at which the problem will be discussed. John Mueller, county bridge engineer, has been asked to attend this meeting. Henry Bode said Mr. Mueller had Informed him that he could give valuable information regarding the best site for the bridge. "Discord will accomplish nothing," -said Mr. Reed. "The necessity of a bridge is paramount. Both organizations agree on this, and I believe we will be able to solve the problem." "We have no grudge against the West Siders," replied Mr. Blickwedel. "We need a bridge, the two organizations ought to be able to smooth out their differences at the meeting In two weeks." POSTPONE ELECTION OF "Y" DIRECTORS The annual session of the Y. M. C. A. will be held In an adjourned meeting on Tuesday night. Feb. 1. At that time five new directors and three new trustees will be elected by the members and annual reports of departments will be made. Sickness in the falmly and other personal matters prevented Secretary E. M. Learner compiling his reports. In order to follow the constitution of the association a quorum assembled last night which was set for the annual meeting and adjournment was taken until Feb. 1.

SCORES LETHARGY OF CITIZENS

Alfred Bavis paid his respects to dozing and lethargic citizens who lack civic consciousness at a meeting of the South Side Improvement association last evening. He said he believed too many citizens of Richmond were sleeping and letting opportunities for improvement go by. Referring to the bridge meetings that have been held, Mr. Bavis said: "These bridge meetings remind me of an old hen scratching but not reaching rock bottom." W. F. Bockoff corroborated the statement of Mr. Bavis, adding that few persons realized how gigantic was o task of trying to throw a level TANGIBLE (Continued From Pag One.) association in sight. Both sides show conciliatory attitude. Pressure to be exerted on county authorities at once. South Side bridge to relieve Main street congestion. Calls attention to $104,320.37 in special bridge fund for south side span. Of this amount $60,320.37 in fund on January 1, 1916; $44,000 loaned to general fund, $24,000 due this year and $20,000 due in 1917. Main Street Bridge. Favors its construction in 1916. Opposes level bridge be cause of tremendous cost. Level bridge infeasible because of grade crossing, probably prohibited by state public service commission ; because it would require change of grades of North D and North Third streets, entailing heavy expenses to city. Level bridge would entail big damages to factories and residences along Main street. Asks legal interpretation regarding part city would have to pay for level bridge Suggests span of present length; west terminus. to be lowered 16 feet to conform with east end grade; boulevard approach for north and south approaches of west terminus; ornamentation of C. & O. bridge to make it look like a city portal: Seventy per cent, of the residents of the United States use electricity in some form every day.

massacred American mining men span across the Whitewater at Main street. He said if profiles of the proposed level structure were made and citizens studied them, they would be astounded at the many problems involved. SOUTH SIDERS Continued From Page One south sides of the hill. He suggested that the C. & O. tracks be raised 5 feet higher, and that the railroad bridge be flanked with towers and converted into a structure that would look like a portal. Members All Agree. He was supported in this by Henry Bode and President Blickwedel, both of whom argued that the cost of a level bridge would be so excessive that it would take many years before the , county could pay off the required construction bonds. B. A. Kennepohl held the same view. Alfred Bavis presented an analysis of the bridge situation, in which he argued that the biggest problem before Richmond now is the congested traffic condition of Main street. He said he was vitally interested in the design of the Main street structure. "Analyze the law," he said. "Find out what is the authority of the county commissioners and the liability of the city. Estimate the cost of the city's liability, the damage to the properties and see if it is possible to build the bridge and stay within 2 per cent of the constitutional borrowing limit of the city. "I doubt if the public service com mission, which has assumed the functions of the railroad commission, will permit a grade crossing.. The com mission is compelling railroads to spend millions of dollars to eliminate grade crossings elsewhere, and I am sure it will not permit one at the eastern end of the proposed level bridge. If a level bridge is ordered and the cost absorbs the whole bonded indebt edness limit, then there will be nc money available for the construction of a south side bridge. Criticises Committee. Will Bartel believed the association ought to await the report of the engineering committee of the Citizens com Improves your skin while cleansing it . Almost any soap will clean the :ikin and hair. Many toilet soaps &xe pure enough to do so without injuring these delicate textures. But those who want a soap which not only cleanses but actually helps the complexion and hair are wise to choose Resinol Soap. The soothing, healing properties of Resinol enable it to protect the skin and scalp from annoying eruptions, keep the complexion clear, and the hair rich and lustrous. This, soaps which are merely pure and cleansing cannot be expected to do. When the skin is in bad condition, through neglect or in unwise use ot cosnkencs, spread on just a little Resinol Ointment for ten or fifteen minutes before using Resinol Soap. Resinol Soap and Ointment are sold by all druggists. For a trial sixe of each, free, writ to Dept. 15-P, Resinol, Baltimore, Md. '

last Monday. mittee, but Mr. Bockhoff asserted that the time was now ripe, and that as Mr. Bavis had remarked, "the committee is scratching around like an old hen without hitting rock bottom." He said the committee had met recently and after a perfunctory discussion wanted to pass a resolution but that he had opposed hasty action and insisted that some real study be given the project before the committee handed in a report. Reverting to some of the difficult of the level bridge idea, Mr. Bockhoff asserted that citizens would open their eyes if they would go to the proposed site and seriously study the problem. Here's what they would see: Outlines Conditions. If the east end of the bridge came between Third and Fourth streets, the bridge would be on a level with the second story of the Robinson plant, shutting off light from the first floor and entailing tremendous damage to that factory. The bridge would be on a level with the top of the Minck brewery. Property on either side of the bridge from First to Fourth streets would suffer big damages. The cost of such a structure would be monumental. Mr. Bavis pointed out the futility of asking the C. & O. to lower its tracks. He asserted if the grade were lowered at Main street so that the bridge could go overhead, the whole complexion of North D and North Third street would have to be changed, causing a tremendous expense to the city. The damage in the grade would necessitate variations in street grades that would go even as far as the east approach of the Doran bridge. THEY REFUSE TO EAT At periods in most childrens' lives they fail to relish their meals and refuse to eat even the delicacies prepared to tempt their appetites. They lack ambition, and growth seems impeded, which causes anxiety and worry. To compel them to eat is a grave mistake, because nutrition is impaired. Healthful exercise in fresh air and sunshine is important, but equally important is a spoonful of Scott's Emulsion three times a day to feed the tissues and furnish food-energy to improve their blood, aid nutrition and sharpen their appetites. The highly concentrated medicinalfood in Scott's Emulsion supplies the very elements children need to build up their strength. They relish Scott's it is free from alcohol Scott & Bowue.

A Succootlvo Airsuittsnf. In Favor off

The present session of congress will be the most important in its scope since the civil war. Millions will be appropriates for 3ef ense. The traditional policies of the government will probably, be revolutionized.

The Army and Navy will have more money at their disposal during1 the next few years than ever before during time of peace. Our diplomatic relations with some of the countries at war may be suspended at any time. War may possibly follow such action on our part. Peace May Be Declared during the new year between the countries now at war, and it is assumed that the United States will become the chief arbitrator, if it is able to remain neutral until such time. Mexico BBBasBSMBMsaa is in a reconstructive period and continues to make history of the most pitiful type. The National Conventions Will Be Held in June This is presidential year. President Wilson will probably be indorsed again by the Democrats and be renominated. Who the Republican candidate will be is yet a matter of speculation. These are only a few of the big things the leading newspapers of tine country will tell about. In the meantime all the news of interest to the home and to women and children is not to be neglected. Everybody Should Be Prepared to keep posted on these all-important events and no American citizen should remain in ignorance of what is going on.
