e —_—— ’Ware the Window Sill Ice-Box In this advanced day ' when the germ is ever in the lime- light, the most careless of maids would not sweep dust under the beds. Yet, there are many otherwise good housekeepers who keep food on the window sill, where it invites the germ- laden dust blown on every wind and where it is subjected to the danger of constantly changing temperatrres. Frosty mornings, mild middays and cold evenings, is abou. the way the fall days run. So the only safe. healthiul olace for food is yvour refricerator, kept at an even cold by a regular supply of ice. | | Food insurance—pure, clean American Ice costs but 3-5 of a cent a pound— the cheapest insurance you can buy.

WOULD GET MORE LAND New Playground Space Favored. Present System of Acquiring Tracts Declared Ineffective. Creation of a National Capital park comm ssion, with authority to ac- quire such lands in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia as may be deemed necessary for com- prehensive and continuous develop- ment of the park and playground system of the National Capital, was urged yesterday in a speclal report unanimously adopted by the parks and reservations comm’ttee of the ‘Washington Board of Trade. The park commission, which is urged by the committee and which has been incorporated into n bill for presentation to Congress by Fred G. Coldren, chairman of the committee, would consist of the following officers of the government: The Secretary of the Treasu-v, the Secretary of War, the cha'rman of the Senate commit- tee on public buildings and grounds, the chairman of the committee on public buildings and grounds of the House and the Kngineer Commis- sioner of the District of Columbia. The officer in charge of public bu® ings and grounds shall be the execu- tive officer of the commission, ac- cording to the bill prepared by Mr. Coldren. - . iRl Method of Financing. Section 2 of the bill provides for the adequate financing of the project to | beautify Washington by the deve'op- | ment of the park systen. It reads: “That there Is authorized to be appro- priated, each year hereafter, in the an- nual District of Columbia appropriation act, a sum equal to one cent for each in- habitant of the contirental United States, as determined by th- last preced- ing decennial census, to be availab'e { {until used, said sum fo be used by said | commission for the acquisition of the ‘ands herein authorized to be acquired by said comr: ssion for the purposes named. the compensation for the land, the expense of surveys, ascertainment | of title. condemnation proceedings, if any, and necessary convevancing to be paid from said appropriations. That three-fourths of a'l the funds so appro- priated shall be used by said conmis- sion for the acquisition of lands within the District of Columbia, and the funds S0 used to acquire property with the District sha'l be paid from the revenues of the District of Coiumbia and the gen- eral funds of the Treasury in the game Dis- trict of Columbia. The land so acquired within tie District of Columbia shall be a part of the park system of the Dis- trict of Columbia and be under control of the chief of engincers of the United States Army; that areas suitabie for playground purposes may, in the dis- cretlon of said commission, be assigned ' to the control of the Commissioners of the District of Columbia for p.ayground purposes: that the land so acquired | outside of the District of Columbia shall | be controlled as determined by agree- | ment between said commission and the proper officers of the states of Maryiand | and Virginla, such agreements to be subject to tne approval of tne Presi- dent.

MAINTAING 17 BEEWS Wi M MDD RUNG OVER ALL TH ‘M’ NAMES HE rNOWe ‘ Baffin Bay An internationally owned aad op- erated wireless and weather observa- tion station on the shores of Baffih bay, to supply data for the world's weather service, has been proposed and steps are being taken to insure its installation. . Baffin bay is pretty far north, as glance at a map of the top of our continent will show; cold winds blow cheerlessly much of the time, ice and snow hold sway over the land and sea for a good portion of the’ year and the life of those stationed there, cut off from the world except by radlo, would not be of the easiest: but the value of their services to the world would be iffestimable, it is satd. Officials of the United States weather bureau are enthustastic over the proposal and will urge the par- ticipation of the government in the co-operative scheme. Thev po'nt out the valuable work of the interna- tional weather observation station on the lonely little island of Jan Maven, off the southeast coast of Greenland, where reports are sent to all the European government meteorological services as well as to the Canadian and United States weather bureans. Mr. V. Bjerkus Ekerold. a Nor- weglan scientist and meteorologist, through whose efforts the Jan Maver station was erected, has been in this ~ountry and Canada for some time in the interest of the proposed Baffin hay station. The great value to this country of such a station is shown by observers in the fact that they often are handi- capped by the sudden arrival of un- foreseen weather changes originating TUESDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1922, Weather Bureau For North America Propo. ed in northern Canada, where tliere are few stations.

A recent example of this sudden and unforeseen change occurred in a series of showers that ended the long ountry-wid drougk Fot =i A country during August, September and early October. Continued dry- | ness was predicted for some days, be-. cause condit'ons were sluggish and no changes were observed within the scope of the reporting stations. Be- | tween two days, however, sudden | showers swept down from the un- charted reglons, freshened up the en- | tire Atlantic seaboard and the south- | ern states, quenched destructive for- ! est fires {n Canada and brought an | nd to the drought. If there were more sta‘lons far-her rorth, it was sald, the change could Lave been foreseen far ahead of its | actual arrival, instead of about two | days or less, and farmers and others, | to 'whom weather cond’tions are im- portant, could have had longer warn- | ing to prepare.

Members of the congregation of the| 15th Street Christian Church, who broke ground Sunday for their new | church at 15th and Potomac avenue southeast, rolled up their shirt slecves yesterday and went to work digging the basement. Plans were for the basement to be dug within a day or two, after which progress was to begin on laying the foundation. While contract for the church has not been let, the Sunday school board, which meets tonight is expecting to take up the question of finances, and see that the foundation first 18 constructed through the com- work and contribu- tions of the congregation.

Reason-| tion for acquiring land to extend the able_Pri park system since 1913, a period of nine years. “Meantime great numbers of spiendid forest trees and areas or natural scenery of inestimable vaiua to tne park system have becn utteriy destroyed.” Systema.ic, combren usi.. «nd contin- uous study by a standing commission is ! the on.y practicabe way to bring re- sults, the committee believes. Hapnazard se.ection of additiona: lands is not good | poiicy. _ Propositions for locai improve- ments from a great variety of sources cannot produce happy resyuts, the report ; says. l v Regular Appropriation. “The bill authorizes a regular annual appropriation of a sum cqual to one . cent ror each inhabitant o the conti- nenta, United States, as determined by the last preceding decennial census. ‘Tnis would amount, under the last cen- sus, to almost exact.y $1,000,000 per year. ““The blll provides that. three-fourths of tnis sum, approximately $7»0,000, shali_be to acquire lands in’ the ! District of Columbia and shali be paid | out of the revenues of the District of | Co,umbia and the general funds of the | Treasury In the same proportion as other expenses of the District of Co-| lumbta. “kstimating the present annual ap- propriations for the government of the District of Co.umbia at $25,000,000, this provides that practicaliy 3 per cent of { tne total annuai District appropriations shall be devoted to eatension of the park system, surely not an unreasonabie amount. Of this $750,000 per year, un- der the present arrangement for divi- sion of the cost, 60 per cent, or $450,000, wou,d be paid by taxation of the resi- dents of the District. “The remaining one-fourth of the total annual appropriation, or $250,- 000, woultd be used to acquire lands outside the District of Coluwmbia, and would be entireiy paid from the gen- eral funds of the Treasury. Total Cost, $550,000. “The total charge on the federal funds, therefore, would be this $:50,- 000, plus 40 per cent of $750,000 ($500,000), total $550,000. ““Lhis $5650,000 annuul charge upon the federal Treasury amounts to a tri- fle over one-hal. of one cent per year for each inhabitant of the continental United States. “1f this appropriation were contin- ued annually for a period of about 200 years the total average cost to each inhabitant of the continental United States would be one dollar. “As proved by the expressions .of the thousands of excursionists to this city, the people of the entire nation take particular {lrlllo In their National Capital and their admiration rests to very rgmark degree on its parks al _rx 1c reservations. ere cannot be a doubt that the people of the nation, if directly ap- A R e e e “Piney Branch extension east and northeast from the Sixteenth Street Tiger bridge, an essential link in the park system, already half destroyed. “Klingle Ford valley, an indis- pensable extension of Rock Creek Park “The Patterson _tract, containing forty acres of unbroken forest, with- T GLATLET miles 01 Capitol building. “rurchase ot land on Pennsylvania avenue now occupled by unsightly buildings.
