Independence Hall Sinks Nicely Into the Cube of Ice Used Daily in Philadelphia A fcio Decimal
Points About Ice And a Hint of Prices as They May Be.
Independence Hall once produced
enough heat to flro the 13 colonies to that
point where they decided to form tho
United States. On sundry other occasions
It was tho storage house for a great deal
of warmth, meteorological as well as po
litical, nut the historic building Is not
Urge enough for one purpose, it couldn't
hold tho Ice that flwelterlng Phlladel
phlans used to keep the butter from
overflowing and the "lmblbcries" going
Vestcrday.
Old Independence Hall, even with the
aid of Congress Hall, falls far short of
tho necessary room.
Philadelphia used approximately 20.000
tons of Ice jestcrday In terms of what
tho housekeeper buys meat by, this
amounts to something In the neighbor
hood of 41,800,000 pounds of water thou
wast to water returning
Tor those who find enjoyment In Jug
gling with decimal points and other
mathematical marks, this ice which went
into the tops of ordinary lceboxca and
high-toned refrigerators In the morning,
and petered out from the bottom tho re
mainder of the day, would form an Im
mense block with a volume of approx
imately 7S0.SC9 cubic feet A cubic foot
of Ico weighs G7tt pounds. If you don't
believe these figures, take a half day oft
the neit time the thermometer flirts with
the Do-degree mark and work It out fop
yourself.
The magnitude of these figures can best
be reallied by a 'vivid comparison In
dependence Hall, counting the main build
ing and both wings, together with Con
gress Hall, has a total volume of 4CS.0U
cubic feet That ls to say, these buildings
could hold only n little more than halt
of the Ice consumed in this city yester
day. There would bo In the neighborhood
of 315,000 cubic feet still left to bo shel
tered. Independence Hall, with its abut
ments, taken twice, and Congress Hall
would Just about hold the ice used.
All these figures are interesting for the
men. But the figure tho women are In
terested in la If 40 cents Is going to buy
100 pounds or somewhat less than two
cubic feet of lco this summer.
Dealers throughout tho city state that
t'nero ls practically no chance that Ico
prices will soar this year. The late sea
son has kept the storehouses stocked
full, and as n result there Is almost an
oversupply on hand. Tho only chance
for nn Increase In price will bo if the
summer last long and if thero Is con
tinued excessive heat. In other words,
Phlladclrhlans will bo ablo to afford to
keep cool this summer. One dlmo will
buy 25 pounds leas than half a cubic
foot of Ice.
Fhlladolphia lco plants have a pro
ductive capacity of more than 3700 tons
of Ico a day. On hot days, such as yes
terday, between 15,000 and 20,000 tons more
nro brought in from outside plants. The
winter is spent storing up tho Ice and In
summer tho Ice received is used to re'
plenlsft what has been used up In the
day s trade.
8om day everything will be briht
and jolly for children at alt times, m ft
waa surety meant to be; but In tho matti
lime such a praiseworthy organisation s
the Children's Country "Week ASBoeUUerl
does the best It Can to Inject ft few his
epots of pleasure into their sordid little
lives.
"A sight to warm the cockles of th
veriest cyrtlc'a beart took place lh1
morning when 75 youngsters assembled,
palpitant and jojous, at 7:30 o'clock ml
side the doors of the association office
at 1603 Arch utreet At S.30 they Wer
divided Into three loU Just Utile bow.
Just Ittle girl and mothers with their
babies. And part of them via th Para
dise Special and part of them Via the
motorbus were conveyed to the three
country places, Qreystone Lodge, at West
Chester, for tho girls: Milt House, at
Newtown Square, for the boys, 4hd
I)llevue for mothers and their wee tots,
for a two weeks' vacation.
"Hey St," screamed one little shaver
In the shrill tones of ecstasy that can
not be restrained, "You ever bum cut
before T"
81 shook his bead languidly Ills' yea
nhone bright with anticipated pleasure.
but 81 had just come from the hospital
ard In view of his wan-pinched face,
penciled with dark blue veins, he must
bt forgiven if he didn't show the proper
amount of enthusiasm that such an ex
pedition would seem to Justify, Look at
SI two weeks from now after he has ex
perlenced the country Joys of Mill IIous
and you will see an example of the beat
work done by tho Country Week Associa
tion. Long before Mrs. E. Boyd 'Weltiel ar
rived to "open up" the happy vacation
ists began to arrive. One of the first to
et there was Mrs. Herman Strecher, Of
19 North 43d street during 60 weeks of
the year, but of Betlevue for tho other
glorious two. Mrs. Btrecher brought with
her sis children ranging in ages from 1
to 13.
The family had nevet been separated
before, and now two of the boys too old
to 'go to the mother's farm were to b
sent to Mill Houae. two girls to the
Lodca and the mother With 3-year-old
Tommy was going to do what she coutd
in tho way of acquiring a new lease on
life at Bellevue. Torn between an uncon
trolabto desire to bo off on their glorious
vacation and tho uncertain feeling- of
being separated from mamma for the first
time in their Uvea, the four older young
sters alternately chortled with glee and
tugged at the maternal skirts with a
strange sadness.
"Tho children ain't never been away
from me before,' Mrs. Strecher said anx
iously, "bqt I know It's going to do them
good, and they'll have so much to think
about they won't get time to miss me."
DETEC-A-TIVES ON PICNIC
150 Real and Near Sleuths Off for
Riverview Beach.
All the detec-a-tlves and acting detec.
a-tlvea and special policemen, who are
scmetlmes nearly as good as real detec-a-tlves,
are on a picnic, 150 of them, In
cluding Director Porter and tho high and
mighty officials of the Bureau of Police,
who are past masters In the art of detec
tion. They took the steamboat Queen Anno
at Arch street and went to Itlvervlew
Beach. There will be some baseball
game today, at Itlvervlew, for every one
of the 150 sleuths ls to be given a chance
to play.
Detective Andrew Knox will wrestle
with John Hart, Janitor. Knox Is the
tallest and best built detective In the
city and the best wrestler. He ls even a
good detective, too. He Is 6 feet 5 Inches
and Hart ls 6 feet 6 Inches Tom liar
bridge will box John Plnkerton.
There will also be a test of the de
tectives' ability to locate the elusive
clam and put him under permanent arrest.
GET MISSING MAN'S PAPERS
Packet Mailed in Now York Belongs
to Orlando C. Berry.
The receipt o' sovcral personal papers
of Orlando Crease Berry, of Itoxbor
ough, who disappeared from Burlington
last Thursday after drawing SHOO from
bank, has caused detectives Investigating
tho case to turn their attention to Now
York, from which place the papers were
mailed. Tho papers were received at the
office of the Berry-Goodwin Company,
134 South 1th street, and were Immediate
ly turned over to the police.
Relatives of the missing man believe
that he has been seized with an attack
of mental aberration due to overwork,
and that ne has gone to New York. In
the hope )f finding him thore tho de
tectives are looking for an architect of
that city namid W. H. Pelton. with
whom Berry had business dealings. De
tectives are beginning to abandon their
original belief that Berry met with foul
play.

tea lot
icing
With the cominp; of tho
hot weather, the question
of the summer drink con
fronts us. Iced tea, of
course, we must have
then why not Iced Caricol?
For Caricol is the icing tea
par excellence. Its min
gling of seven selected tea
growths is admirably suit
ed to icing not only in its
'wonderfully delicious taste,
but also in its cooling, re
freshing quality. Not all
teas are good when iced,
for even some of the high
est priced blends have an
unpleasant h e r b y taste
when served cold. Caricol
has that good tangy taste
that makes it most delight
ful in the tall glazed glass.
Serve it at meals or be
tween meals in hot weather,
you will find it cooling and
refreshing always delight
fuland a tea of a price
that you may serve often.
