offered for sale.- as the City Council
yesterday mornins passed, with an.
emergency clause. Commissioner llanns
'.ordinance so declaring-. There were no
objections to it upon the part of mem
bers of the Council or from the floor.
Mayor Baker asked Mr. Mann if it
was so sweeping: as to shut out pos
sible competition in the ice business
by people who might have a pure
water supply other than Bull Run, and
Mr. Mann said that, should such de
velop, he would be willing: to consider
such a case and act accordingly. The
only object sought, he said, was to
prohibit the manufacture of impure ice
or other food products.
Mayor Baker's ordinance to create
a police pension and relief fund was
introduced and read the first time. He
asked the members of the Council to
give it serious consideration and be
ready to pass it as soon as possible
bo that he might proceed with the
proposed reorganization of the bureau
of police.
An ordinance exempting hotel pro
prietors and persons operating auto
mobiles solely for funeral purposes,
supported by Mayor Baker, was laid
over for a week because of the op
position of Commissioners Mann and
Bi gelo w.
An ordinance creating an additional
deputy In the office of the City Attor
ney vas passed and the salary was
fixed at tl25 a month. This was fath
ered by Mayor Baker, who explained
that he will transfer back to police
duty J. L. Gould, now working out of
the legal bureau, and J. AV. Inskeep.
who has been probation officer for
the Municipal Court, and have the new
deputy do that and additional work.
A saving in salaries would thus be
made.
Commissioner Bar"bur notified the
Council that in future he will object
to four-fifths matter, or so-called
emergency subjects, being brought into
the meetings except in actual cases of
necessity. He said the Council calen
dar should contain all items up for
consideration, as otherwise the public
could not know in advance what is to
be discussed.
The Council voted unanimously to
prohibit the sale or use of sparklers for
Fourth of July purposes or otherwise.
The Council appropriated $S0O for a
tourist camp ground on the Forestry
building site.

a mechanical genius were he a human
being. This Spring when the Ringling
circus opened its season Darwin joined
the organization on the opening day.
He had traveled 5000 miles by water
and rail in a wooden box. He was
scarce 2 years old and none too strong.
Things looked dark for Darwin, but he
took to civilization like a duck to
water, and under the tutelage of Will
iam Chambers, head animal trainer, he
has developed like an infant prodigy-
Chambers haa remarkable ideas on
the subject of animal training and one
of them is that all animals in common
with human beings feel the influence
of the zodiac. "My father put me in
this way of thinking when I was a
boy. Chambers explained in a recent
interview, "and I have had occasion to
thank him many times for his teaching.
I would no more think of trying to
train an animal without knowing the
sign under which he was born than I
would think of planting corn in De
cember. Take Darwin, for instance,
his horoscope has been substantiated
in numerous ways. Some people, of
course, may" deem my theories a Joke,
but I have never known them to fail.
They have helped me to master several
hundred wild beasts." .
As a special feature of the animal
exhibit of the Ringling Brothers' cir
cus, which is to appear in this city on
Monday, August 27, at Twenty-fifth
and Raleigh streets, will be one sec

African exhibits.
SALARY STUDY IS BEGUN
CITY C03IJHSSIOXERS TO MAKE
HECOMMESDATIOSS,
Increases for Employes Will Depend
on Whether Funds Are Avail
able In Treasury,
Action , by the City Council with re
gard, to increases in the salaries of
practically every municipal emplojte
will depend upon the condition in
which the city treasury is found to be
when a report is filed for considerat
ion by the Treasurer and Chief Dep
uty Auditor Grutze. There are indica
tions that it may be impossible to do
much in the way of rises until the next
fiscal year on account of funds being
short.
Another bunch of petitions for in
creases reached the Council yesterday.
Mayor Baker-, was instructed by the
Council to refer all petitions to the re
spective Commissioners of departments
for their recommendation.
Mayor Baker suggested a special ses
sion to be held next week for consid
eration of salaries, but Commissioner
Barbur suggested that each Commis
sioner take the petitions of his re
spective employes, go over them and
determine upon his recommendations
and then report back. This was
agreed to.
Mr. Barbur suggested that it might
be found possible for the Council to
grant the increases sought at this time,
but that it could go on record as being
willing to do the right thing when the
funds are available.

You may not go to the trenches, but you will want to heed
the President's request for conservation of food supplies. You
will want to do your bit in preventing waste of the great food
staples.
You can do this by demanding a larger per cent, of whole
wheat grain in bread and breakfast foods. The real "war bread"
must contain the entire wheat grain not the white flour center
but every particle of gluten and mineral salts that are so
necessary to the well-balanced ration; also the outer bran coat
that is so useful in keeping the bowels healthy and active.

is 100 per cent, whole wheat. It is therefore the real"war bread."
The whole wheat grain is the most perfect food given to man.
It contains every element
the human body needs to
build healthy tissue, and
furnish energy for the day's
work.
Two or three of these crisp, brown
loaves of Shredded Wheat with milk
and sliced bananas, berries, or other
fruits, make a nourishing, strength
ening, satisfying meal at a cost of a
few cents.
