Emergency -Fleet Corporation
Aw.ards Contracts
Contracts for the construction of
twenty-three coal barges of 2500 tons
each have been awarded by the
Emergency Fleet Corporation to ship
yards along the Atlantic and Gulf
coasts. '
Terms of the contracts brlngthe total
figure to 1190,000. This sum proldes
for the construction of hulls and the In
stallation of equipment, although not for
the cost of the latter.
The barge-, probably will be used to
haul coal from Virginia to New England,
which has a deficit to make up since
England requisitioned all the coal from
Nova Srotla, from which New England
once obtained much of Its supply.

WILLIAM H. SMITH DIES
Fractured Hip Results Fatally lo
Former Banking Commissioner
William H. Smith, former State Bank
ing Commissioner, died shortly after Ave
o'clock today In the Presbyterian Hos
pital. He was slxty-seve,n years .old.
Ten days ago Mr. Smith fell at his
home, 827 North Sixty-third street, suf
fering a fractured hip. He was taken
to the hospital Immediately after the
accident.
Two years ago Mr. Smith was the
'center of a strong political storm, when
he was forced to resign as Commissioner
by Governor Brumbaugh, because he al
leged, he refused to "play politics." He
was appointed In 1909 by Governor
Stuart and during his term of office
bankers say he conducted the depart
ment strictly on an effllclency basis.
Mr. Smith was born In this city Au
gust 26, 1861. He was educated In the
public schools, and after passing one
year In high school became a newspaper
reporter. He rose rapidly, and was
made city editor. He acquired his first
reputation as a gas tarustee, to which
position he was elected by Councils In
the spring of 1882. He later served as
chief clerk of the City Treasury, and
then became secretary of a storage ware
house company. He resigned that po
sition to accept an appointment as bank
examiner.
German propaganda Is preentlng
school teachers from engaging In sum
mer war work.
This Is according to Dr. John Garber.
superintendent of schools. In ansner to
numerous queries as to reports that the
Board of Education has refused to per
mit teachers to do war work during
their summer vacations.
Dr. Garber denied that the Board of
Education has placed a ban on summer
war work by teachers and said the ru
mors were being spread by German nron.
agandlsts who want to keep as many I
persons as possible out of war work.
William Dick, secretary of the board,
In a letter to the Emergency Fleet Cor
poration as the result of many teachers
being told they cannot obtain employ
ment there because of the boards op
position to summer employment, stated
the board wished to correct the Im
pression. He said there was no opposi
tion to teachers doing summer work, es
pecially In the Go eminent sen ice. His
letter follony:
"Statements are being persistently
made by teachers In our schools that
they have been refused employment dur
ing the summer because the Beard of
Public Education has requested that
teachers should not be employed by oui
corporation.
"We have repeatedly said that neither
the board nor any of its officers has
made any such request of you or any
other employer. Despite our statements,
we are continually hearing that the
teachers feel aggrieved because they have
been led to believe that the board Is
Interfering with their desire to aid the
Government In its war work.
"Vou will readily understand that the
board is desirous of correcting such an
erroneous Impression, and I have been
icquested by the acting president of the
board to ask you to send a communica
tion, before the next meeting, to the ef
fect that no such request has been made
of you by the board or any one connected
with its administration."

Killed in Elevator Shaft Fall

fTIHE return of the horse to popular
favor for drhlng. prompted by the
call of the Government for conservation
of gasoline by motorists, is already not
ed along the Main Line and Old York
road sections.
And driving and riding are to gain
even more faor after July 10. when the
new law prohibiting the Bale of oils and
gasoline and repairs to machines on
Sundays will go into effect.
The warning has already been sound
ed among horse lovers, whose energies
and finances have gone this ear toward
making successes of shows and exhibi
tions for the American Red Cross and
other charities, to prepare their rigs and
harness for pleasure drlUng.
In London, whero the fuel problem
has long been serlouB and where gasoline
now sells In limited quantities at 75
cents a gallon, horses for driving and
riding aie said to be more In demand
than ever.
The war will bring about similar con
ditions In this country, horsemen say,
and they are preparing for the day when
shopping will be done In a carriage
rather than a motor, and one may drive
safely along the city streets and pikes
in the suburban sections.
Charles R. Hamilton, one of Phila
delphia's most prominent horsemen,
and an exhibitor at various exhibitions
throughout the country, whs amenr the
first who refed the sport along the
Main Line this season. Yesterday he
was seen driving behind one of his trot
ters, and spoke at that time of the re
turn of the horse to favor throughout
me country.
"After July 10, driving is to come
Into Its on again," Mr. Hamilton said,
"and from then until the end of the
war, at least, we cvpect great days
for the sport. The use of nleasure auto.
mobiles Is to be restricted, and, accord
ing to the outlook at the present time,
the people .will turn to the horse again
ior rming.
"Xot only will horses be used bv
women and for family use, but with
tne aavent or new roads in the conn
try, with proper space on each side for
horses, It will not be surprising to see
tne trotter ana pacer return to its own
ana do usea by business men for
pleasure and relaxation in the afternoons."
Wartime Calls for Spats All Year
A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose
0Ft
To look it these smart shoes you would never think them controlled by
wartime regulations. They are, however. The reason for the majority
rule of the oxfords and pomps is that Uncle Sam order, his nieces to
wear low shoes and spats whenever possible
COURSE you have heard that
there are to be restrictions regard-
IP
Inr shoes for both men and women this
coming season. That the war Industries
board has given the shoe problem care
ful study Is mora than evident In the
order which has gone forth, and no one
can say that the final decision was any
thing but generous, or that they have
not given a range of ample colors, etc.,
for any sensible-minded women.
The height of the shoes for the wom
en Is to be eight Inches from the floor
when the boot Is of laced variety, and
six inches when the button style Is
Used.
We are also asked to wear the low
hoes either the oxfords or the pump
tq replace the high shoe whenever pos
sible. Certainly this Is little for any
of us to do when we know that the
leather Is needed for "Our Boys," And
who wouldn't be perfectly willing to
wear the pump and the spat all winter
v long?
Ypu will remember that we were
olamortng for spats three winters ago

Is for the woman who likes the low heel

portion of patent leather and the upper
of black kid. The lower Is of tan with
fancy Insets of the same leather. This
Is not the style of shoes appropriate for
one who Is limited In the number of
boots she possesses, as It Is strictly a
shoe for outing costumes. The pumps
at the lower part of the circle may be
of patent leather or black kid, and may
be enhanced by steel buckles If desired.
The pumps at the right are of white
kid and are ornamented with black jet
buckles, a fancy of this season.

are the hit of the bill at the Cross Keys.
This ts one of the very best quartets

greatly enjoyed by the audience.
The Platinum Models, the headline
feature. Is highly artistic. Plsano and
Bingham won laughs with their true-to-life
portrayals. Janet Louden and com

GOOD SUMMER SHOW
DELIGHTS AT KEITH'S
Christie MacDonald Reflects
to Advantage in "Cupids
Mirror"
It has been decided by the Govern
ment that vaudeville Is an essential In
dustry. The chow at Keith's this week
proves that the decision Is warranted.
As the audience laughed or applauded
throughout the evening most of those
present must have been satisfied.
With a dream-like creation called
"Cupid's Mirror," Christie MacDonald,
the musical comedy star, carried the
artistic honors of the bill She has lost
none of the winsome personality and
Rrace which long ago made her a
favorite. Her little musical offering is a
fantasy. A woman dreams that the
little figures of a boy and girl which
adorn her mirror come to life and fall
In love with each other. They seek her
advice, but after she tells them In the
course of a number of songs how to
avoid the obstacles and deceits of
life, she awakens. The act Is staged
artistically without undue extravagance
and ns It now stands Is one of the real
cameos of vaudeville. It is the .work of
Claudo W. Bostock. Neville Fleeson has
supplied bright lyrics, while Albert Von
Tllzer furnjshed memory-haunting
melodies. MIsb MacDonald Is well sup
ported by Irene Rowan and William
Hale. The star and tho production
generally won emphatic approval.
There Is a sketch on the bill, true to
real life as far as women arc concerned,
and proved to be a genuine treat. It Is
called "Moondown." which, ns Is usual
with titles, gives no Idea about the real
story. The plajlet Is good because tho
author, John Reed, has dealt with fatjis.
The story tells of tho adventures of two
girls who are fighting for an existence In
Xew York One has high Ideals. The
other has had her Ideals shattered one
by one and strives to convince her chum
that romance Is only a veneer which hides
tne bargain points of oidlnary humanity.
Ruby Craven and Reglna Connelll are
the two girls. Their portrayals deserve
all the commendatory words which one
applies to excellent acting.
The success which attended this act
dispels the fallacy that the public does
not enjoy sketches In the summer time. I
Mme. Chllson-Ohrman. a Mngcr of
striking beauty, won deserved success
In numerous classical numbers. It was '
her first appearance In Philadelphia, and I
she had every reason to be gratified
with the results. Madame Chilson-'
Ohrman Is a soprano with a voice of I
exceptional range and volume. An Im-
provement In general expression would
add to the charm of her singing. i
Other acts on the bill were Bessye

ters and Crocker, w ho tcored one of ,
their old-time hits, Averting and Llo.vd,
In their familiar talk, Conlln and Glass

Beginning ns n cotnedv this latest
1 proauct of the r.oldwyn studios goes
off Into a melodrama which does not hold
the Interest. The motivation concerns the
efforts of Miss Marsh to rid a hotel
she Inherited of the barroom attached
to It This she does along the lines of
, the latp Carrie Nation, and It Is nftcr
this episode that the lawyer-hero tells
her she Is "all woman." The melo

I upon which has been written the names

For the
Meatless Days
You "wouldn't think you could do
much with some left over vege
tables; potatoes, beets, carrots,
corn, beans or onions. But here's
what I did with them the other
Tuesday when Mr. Hoover said "no
meat." I made vegetable cro
quettes, and Jim said he was going
to be a vegetarian for life. I
chopped the vegetables into small
"cubes, seasoned with sage, sail and
pepper, and made a glorious thick
cream sauce, to which I added two
tablespoonfuls of Al Sauce. I
poured this over the vegetables,
molded them Into croquettes, and
frkd them In very hot butter sub
stitute. Oh, that Al Sauce I Its
nlquant flavor, so different from
anything else, pulled those cro
nuettes up into the class where the
French chefe live! Adv.
