N. Strickland, Rliode Island state chemist, has been analyzing ‘the soda water and bottled goods put up by various concerns throughout the state and he finds that saccharine ‘is commonly used in direct violation of law, and the pracitce is dele- terious to the ‘health. One pound of sac- charine is.equal to more than 500 pounds of sugar, and bottling works are using the cheaper- meéthod of sweetening owing to the “high price of sugar. The principal bottling" companies fdavored the passage of the state law at the last session of ‘the legislature which provided in part that “any sweetening matter used in the man- ufacture of any beverage to which this act applies shall consist of pure cane or beet sugar, or pure corn sugar.” Disregard of the law by seme is also unfair 'to the honest bottlers who use su- gar because they cannot compete success- fully with the saccharine users. ~Sac- charine sells for about $3.50 and its sweetening power is about 500 times more than sugar. Professor Strickland says| that. is the reason why some bottled ) goods are sold at from 65 to 90 cents a case, where the price. would be ‘1 25 to $1.40 with real sugar used. The professor ‘said: “Saccharine is a drug, no ta food. It is an artificlal j sweetening, forbidden by ‘law in Rhode Island. It is classed by the federal gov- ernment as a‘drug and its'use as a food is not permitted. When a state permits its use the federal government. cannot prevent its.use in that state, but it can prevent the goods being taken to any other state where there are laws against saccharine.” The highway commission is still with- e gardens were over figving with roses and early summer flowers. Altogether it was very beautiful to me as I stood on the top of the hill looking down below in the valley. Suddeniy I heard someone calling me. It was my aunt and she told me fo hurry for we were going on a visit to Pleasure Beach. We piled into the alto anl en- joyed a delightful ride through the woods. In reaching my friend’s house she suggested a ride out to Three Isi- ands and took our bath in the sed. After one of the happiest days I er sperdt we returned and just reached home as it was getting dark. This was ore of the many pleasant days I spent vis- iting my aunt at Graniteville.

Treasurer Pendleton still insists that there is none -tooymuch room for the de- partment he repyesents in the town’hall office and that during the tax collection ‘period the ‘room 'is' not adequate for the the case to the town council, and in the meantime the, highway commission. has not assumed an aggressive position. It is quite probable that when the town 'conncxl meets again the vote of the. for- mer meeting will be rescinded and' other office a.ocon?mndanbn provided for the highway commission. If it is decided that there is no.room for office in the town hall, the commission will seek an office elsewhere, and the town will pay the rént.
