FISHNG SCHOONER LASHEDBY STORM Six Men Reported Lost From Two Vessels in “Grave Yard of Atlantic.” ENCOUNTER HEAVY SEAS Craft Limps Into Halifax With Sixteen of Crew Rescued From Foundered Ship. By the Associated Press. HALIFAX, N. &, March 12.—The Gloucester fishing schobner Eliza- beth Howard limped into this port with sixteen of the crew of the lost Nova Scotia fishing schooner Helen M. Coolen safe on board, but with news of the loss of six lives during the terrific storms of last week on the north Atlantic. The Elizabeth that the Helen M. Coolen foundered on the banks not long after two of crew had been swept overboard. In the same storm a huge sea struck the Howard, carrying off four men and everything movable. Vessel Buffeted. Capt. Dan MacDonald of the How- ard, brought his vessel into port showing plainly the effects of ter- rific buffeting by the angry seas. He rvelated that late Wednesday night, while off the northeast bar of Sable Island, “the graveyard of the At- lantic,” the vessel was caught with the full force of the elements. A great sea boarded the vessel, sweeping the Gloucester fisherman from stem to stern. It was after midnight and in the darkne the blinding snow the crie overboard were heard faintly through the storm. Above the roar of the seas faint cries continued to_drift back from the unfortunate fisher- men, but their mates were helpless to aid them, their whole effort being directed to saving their craft from sinking. Buoys were thrown out and when a lull came the schooner moved about showing flares, but no trace of the men was found. When the wind abated the roll was called and four men failed to Te- spond to the muster. Discovers Distress Signal.

THE FIFTH AVENUE MAY DIM LIGHTS. TO KEEP RABBLE FROM WINDOWS By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 12.—Fifth avenue without bright lights—the most famous shopping thoroughfare in the world bereft of its nightly promenade: of thousands—deserted, except for an occasional patrolman and the soft-footed gentry. That is the hope, not of any new reform group, but of the one class ronage for its support—the Fifth Avenue Association, composed of the principal business houses of the street. Paradoxical as it may seem, these merchants do not want the public to pause, absorbed in the gorgeousness jof show windows replete with the {latest in fashions—they do not want prospective purchasers to view their wares except by daylight, if the ex- pressions of the board of directors may be taken as an index of the sen- timents of the membership. With_in ng night crowds, the directors will come a rapid in- vasion of “tlose who profit by ap- {peasing the appetites and desires of {roving night crowds— restaurants whigh depends most on public pat-} and rendezvous of a type now dis- tinctly foreign to 5th avenue.” BUNT Sectional In a serles of letters the directors have appealed to the membership to stop lighting their windows—to_ dis- courage night life around their busi- ness houses. Some of the stores have been working toward this end for a long time, not only dimming their lights, but curtaining or shuttering their show windows. “With such holdings as we have,” one letter asked, ‘“doesn't it seem the height of folly to jeopardize them through night lighting, with its pos- sible—nay, more than that, probable— consequences? Could a meager (and doubtful) immediate return from night-time i{llumination ever store up 2 surplus sufficient to balance an ultimate and positive daytime loss?” GETS PROTEST FROM ITALY. BUENOS AIRES, March 12.—The Itallan minister, Victor C.

By the Associated Press. NORFOLK, Va, March 12.—One dead and two probably fatally wound- ed Is the result of a pistol battle staged early last night in the kitchen of Salvatore Grande's home, 816 Ber- muda street. John Costello was killed by a .45 bullet through his mouth, and Tony Ventura and Salvatore Dimarco were so perforated with the same size slugs that it is belleved they will dle, Both of the wounded men are in St. Vincent’s Hospital. Costello died almost instantly from one shot and Ventura was wounded twice {n the right side and once in the right leg. - Dimarco's abdomen and right arm were plerced by the big bullets.

Food, clothing, shelter and their infinite subdivi- sions are daily needs. There is not a clock tick that does not register a million human desires. The daily newspaper is the closest thing in the world to the people’s daily wants. It is an expression of the ever-press- ing desire for news. The advertiser who uses the daily newspaper reaches people with his message at exactly the right moment. Somewhere, with some person wanting something, news- paper advertising registers every second of the day. It brings buyer and seller together because it brings the right message at the right time.

In winter they dry out and contract, with a tendency to open up the cracks between the boards. Your linoleum flooz, therefore, should be cemented (not tacked) over a lining of builder’s deaden= - ing felt which has beenpre- wviously glued to the bare floor boards. The felt takes up expansion and contrace tion and gives you a per- manent, waterproof, looking floor. The added service and wear this method gives are well worth the extra cost.

How cork is used in linoleum Cork in powdered form is a basic material used in making linoleum. It combines perfectly with oxi- dized linseed oil, from which linoleum gets its name. Here is what we by “oxidized ” linseed oil: When this liquid is exposed to heat and air, a solid, tough film forms on top. That is a sim- * ple form of oxidization.
