COUNCIL URGES PROTECTION OF
MOVIE PATRONS
Theatres Are Overcrowded,
Fire Chief Tells City Body-
Red Cross Canteen Urged. Action was taken by city council Monday evening to protect Richmond i people when they attend moving picture shows. Councilman White said
moving picture machine operators
were in the habit of starting a ma
chine, and going away for fifteen or twenty minutes, thus causing danger
of fire, white said that picture shows were crowded to the very doors. Fire Chief Miller was present and said council should take some action. The aisles, he said, were never crowded, but the back of the theatre was and at present there is no law to prevent this.,; Many times Miller said he had been, compelled to go to the theatre and stop the sale of tickets. He said that operators should not be permitted to leave their machines, and that operators should not be permitted to smoke in their booths, as the practice is dangerous. Miller suggested that the matter be referred to the ordinance committee. He said In -some cities - they have made a law which limits the number of people ' standing In the back of the theatre to the number in the back row. The matter was turned over to the ordinance committee and city attorney for immediate action.; Parking Ordinance Read. The parking ordinance was up on second reading. Before voting Councilman Von Peln said he wanted it ' made clear that there was nothing in the ordinance that referred to the hitching racks. They were to stay where they were. The .farmers and merchants wanted them, he said. This started a discussion in which It was evident that Councilman Williams and the mayor were very much opposed to hitching racks at all. Councilman Thatcher said he had talked with some of the merchants and that they wanted them left there. Councilman Walterman. suggested that the Boacd of Works should attend a council meeting every now and then 'in order that they might offer explanations or suggestions. Members said that the board had not been present for four or five weeks. Urges Canteen Service. Councilman Golden wanted to know why the Richmond Red Cross did not have a canteen service at the railroad stations. Opinion favored such a service. - Councilman Schneider said that the city . should- clean off the sidewalks where they have been built close to banks. ' The dirt washed down on a sidewalk after a rain and the sidewalk Is In a dirty condition. The mayor said that if specific places were pointed out the street cleaning department would look after them. Councilman Thatcher asked if the water at Thlstlethwalte's Falls could be utilized by the city in any way. Mayor Zimmerman replied that it would be a big expense to the city and sufficient profit would not be gained. Street Improvements Up. '" Councilman Walterman reported that many people had made complaints about the condition of B street be- ; tween Sixth and Seventh streets. He suggested that as spring will soon be here and streets will have to be repaired every street should be gone over. The mayor replied that only one could be done and that the board had ordered 20.000 gallons of oil . which would be put on repaired streets to preserve them. Councilman White called attention to the condition of the street at the , Interurban freight station where the water runs off the roof into the street when It rains, causing the street to be flooded so' badly that peonle have to go out of their way to avoid It. ... The condition of North Twelfth ' street was brought to the atention of the council. No street in Richmond : Is lq a worse condition, it was said. .. There Is no valuable property In that part of town, but they are entitled ;to a good street, said Councilman . Ford. He said he thought it would be
profitable as the road is used by fanners and travelers. He suggested that macadam .be built and covered with oil surface. The mayor "was of the opinion that the street should be permanent. ' ' Councilman Schneider said he thought North Fifth street should be improved. New Parks Proposed. Councilman Walterman said the women in the seventh ward had suggested a park across Seventh street. He said - that they said there was a man with 100 trees who would be glad to plant them. in a park. Mr. Walterman said that the women had stated to him that Mayor Zimmerman told them when he was campaigning that this park would be built Mr.
Walterman wanted to know whether the mayor meant to do anything or
whether he had Just made that part of his campaign. The mayor, replied that he had made no promises to any man or woman, but that he had said he was in favor of parks and boulevards. He said he was in favor of permanent streets where there would be a large income. He also said there should be a park on Richmond avenue. Councilman Richardson suggested that a park be made at Richmond avenue and that the city should provide swings and other apparatus . for the children's playground. Authorize Lot Sales. " The mayor told him that the city did not own those lots and it might be difficult to buy them. Councilman Ford said' that the people over there were so eager to have a playground they should give the lots to the city. Councilman Williams said that once before the people wanted a playground so badly and were so publicspirited that one man had a price of $22,000 fixed on one lot. Council authorized the sale of lots 4, 6, 6, 7 and 41 in the Hanover addition to the Starr Piano company. Council was very much in favor of this and Councilman Von Peln said it was a shame the city could not give the lots away. They have been doing the city no good and the Starr Piano company is building a road down there in order that it can have a south exit This road will be of an advantage to the city and at the same time will be kept up by the company. Reid Memorial hospital report for January was read.

CUT YOUR SHOE BILLS
"Heretofore, soles never lasted me more than three months, because my work keeps me walking constantly on cement. But I have worn a pair of Neolin Soles now for more than three months, and judging from their present condition, they will last three times as long." So says G. L. Kerr, manager of an automobile organization in Geneva, N. Y. This extra wear given by Neolin Soles not only makes the shoes soled with them cheaper by the year than other shoes, but the price you pay in the first place is sometimes less than for shoes of only ordinary wear. You can get Neolin-soled shoes in many styles for every member of the family. Try these long-wearing, comfortable and waterproof soles on your worn shoes too. All good repair shops have them'. They are made by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., of Akron, Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heels, guaranteed to outwear all other heels. neolin Soles

Do yon realize that you may have an acid-stomach? It is the very thing that causes in- ' digestion, heartburn, bloat, belching, " . stomach pains and all kinds of stomJ ach miseries. So if yon ever suffer : from any of these painful and distres - eing symptoms you may feel euro that you have an acid-stomach. On the other band, there are millions of people who are victims of acidstomach without' their knowing it. People who are tired, listless, run down and worn out always sickly and ailing. People who are thin blooded, pale, weak and emaciated. , ' People who have frequent attacks of ' , rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago. Thousands upon thousands who suffer al- " most daily from severe headaches, whose nerves are always on edge, irrit- -"- able, mentally depressed, lie awake and toss about throughout the night, and take a dark outlook on life. They - may have no pains in the stomach at all and yet, nine times out of ten it is Just acid-stomach that is causing V them all their troubles. t . . Boiled down to a few simple facts the condition is this: An acid-stomach
cannot diggest food properly and the whole body suffers from lack of sufficient nourishment. It is dangerous to take any chances with acid stomach. 80 test your own case and find out for sure whether acid-stomach is the cause of your ill health. Here is the surest and most simple test for you to make: Go to your druggist and get a big box of EATON1.C the pleasant tasting tablets that you eat like a bit of candv. If you have acid-6tomach, EATON IC will clean out the excess acid and bring such wonderfully quick relief that you will think it almost too good to be true. It makes the stomach clean, sweet, cool and comfortable. You can almost feel it work as it drives the gas and bloat out of your body. You will feel like your old time self again get back your pep, enthusiasm and energy be hearty, hungry, vigorous, keen, eager to be up and coming. If you are not entirely pleased with your test of EATONIC, take it back to your druggist. Our orders are that he . will refund your money. Your word is good enough for us, so make this test of EATONIC TODAY.
