BOARD TENTATIVELY APPROVES BUS LINE . CONTRACT FOR CITY - i Richmond's new bus line took an-; other step toward final formation! Monday when a form of ordinance and contract-franchise was tentatively ap-j proved by the board of works. The ordinance and contract, if approved by the members as re-made ac ! cording to their suggestions in thenrternoon, will be presented to the- i city council Monday night. The contract provides for the operation of three routes by the bus company on a set schedule. The three routes are outlined in the ordinance and are designed to reach parts of the city not reached by street car service. , Fares are set at five cents, with one cent for transfers, and with special! rates for school children, as in the case of the street railway company. Certain city officials are given the right to free transportation. In most respects the ordinance Is like any street railway franchise, except that it has a life of but five years. In case service is discontinued for 24 hours, or the contract is broken by the company, the ordinance and franchise are void. Safeguard Passenqers. Special provisions for the safety of the passengers, and for -the creation of a reserve fund for damage suits also are provided. About 10 busses will be operated by the company, j iney nave one dus now in Kicnmona on exhibit . O. H. Little was given permission to cut the curb on Sheridan street in order to put in a driceway to his house. The ordinance to pave the alley between North Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets, running from D to E, was ordered withdrawn.

county takes the same action and bans sign boards of an advertising character from county roads as well as state roads. The progressive merchant will advertise in the columns of his home -newspaper. Half of the roadside ad. signs represent concerns or persons . who have gone out of business, many of whom may be renting serenely in the local cemetery. So. the passer-by who is a stranger can't tell a live one from a dead one. This is not the case with newspaper advertising the ad. in the local paper is 'live' and so is the advertiser." The Hoosier Auto association states that it feels gratified that the highway commission ruling does not apply to danger signs and direction signs erected-by the automobile association. The association has reached the point where it is difficult to travel any main read now without viewing from 'b. few many warning signs or direction signs erected by this association ' in an effort to safeguard the high ways.

Rump, familiarly known as "champion optimist1' of St. Louis apparently has won his long fight for a pension for inuries sustained a score of years while a postal clerk here. Rump gained his sorbriquet. because of his good humor and steadfastness despite his suffering caused in 190:? when he was struck by a postal sack thrown by a fellow worker. The blow injured his spine and caused ossification of the joints. Total paralysis of the body set in in 1909, and Rump has been beridden rince. The only part of his body that he can move is his jaw, and that only about a quarter! in an liieii. Rump was granted $2,000 in a lump several years ago, and because of this awr.rd, his fight for a pension was contested. The House finally passed a bill granting Rump a life pension of $6t) a month. The senate, it was said, likely will accept the Housebill. it having passed a bill sometime ago granting him $67. Despite his infirmities. Rump has been earning money by soliciting magI azine subscriptions over the teleCity "Cooler" Given Bath, As All Residents Are Out The city jail is now nice and clean.

It was decided to ask the Richmond Community Service through its secretary. P. H.

"Community Service will be be very frlad to make a study and recommendations for furnishing more recreational facilities in Glen Miller park," said Mr. Slocum. "Many great spaces are in the park now used for growing hay, which could be turned over for the boys and girls of the city. "The park has a wonderful water supply, which by intelligent use, could be turned into wading pools for small children and a great communitv swimming hole for everybody. Contrary to popular belief, the water in Glen Miller lake is not too cold for swimming. "I believe the people of the citv would like to see the park made more useful if its natural beauty was preserved.

SAUNDERS (Written for the United Press) BUENOS AIRES. July :7. When American women begin to plan their first fall hats and see if the moths have got into the woolens, the Argentine senora will be just on the point of emerging from her cocoon. That cocoon is an ample one, modelled along perpendicular lines. Once a northerner has seen the average Argentine woman in a bathing suit, he appreciates what a large armful she is. In the southern republice there is a long list of social don'ts, which, while making life as near effortless as possible, encourage tendencies toward avoirdupois. Out-size garments are the rule rather than the exception, vhereas the woman so unfortunate as to have an "English style" foot is doomed to pass many hours in fruitless search for moderate heeled, long vamped shoes. She pursues a hopeful prospect with a familiar American brand, only to find that the home factory caters especially to the high heeled, broad, yet short, sole and think ankle. The Argentine woman is well upholstered and no one would ever accuse her of the feminine sin of tight lacing. Surely the age of wasp waists back in the 90's passed up Argentina. One is inclined to doubt whether either fashions or "eat to get thin" starchless biscuits and reducing recipes could ever burrow past tradition pre scribing what is necessary to be a perft iari. if jir"s' John Smith, wife of a ma chinery salesman, living in a Harlem flat, doing her own housework and sending her three healthy childrerr to school, were suddenly transplanted to Bureos Aires her husband's American dollars would suddenlv expand to rove a multitude of luxuries that can be paid for in pesos. Takes on Weight Likewise, Mrs. Smith would find at the end of a languid, workless period that she herself had expanded and her former muscular plumpness would be cushiony rolls of flesh. And here are the reasons, the social tone or tne Argentine tor any woman 'above the ranks of washwomen, janitresses and factorv hands. Don't walk when there are plenty of taxis and coaches. Don't live in the smallest apartments without at least, a cook and a maid. Don't wear low heeled shoes; it isn't necessary to walk anyhow. Don't get the idea that a Sunday hike would be pleasure; it would be much more seemly to pass the day at home on your balcony watching the neighbors passing. Don't be seen carrying packages, suitcases or children; it isn't done in the best families. Don't do your marketing in person that's what a maid is for. Never miss tea, for it is an excellent opportunity to absorb sugary cakes. Don't exercise the baby; you might get the child accustomed to the habit. Don't move around much when you go out socially; you can see more by sitting on the side lines and wielding a lorgnette while the other folks dance. Don't fail to observe all of the above rules; if your husband can't afford to keep pace with them make the general public thing he can.
