RAINS OF ICE
.CUT 25 PER CENT
Concerns Who Serve Cracked
Ice to Customers Have Sup
ply Decreased One-half
SODA FOUNTAINS HARD HIT
llestauraut keepers, drug store own
ers, saloonkeepers and milk dealers
found today that their usual supply of
iee had been cut 2." per cent. This was
by order of the ice commission. The
commission nlso has reduced supplies
of "ill per cent to dealers who serve
cracked Ice to customers.
It wns shown by reports submitted by
the tblrtv companies and individuals i
gnzed in the manufacture of iee that
of the S0.000 tons in storage on .iuiy
1-. !,.,, -omnlncil ftfl.OflO tons
OH
i.,..i 1 Tl,, ttnilv nutnut of the
combined plants in the last two weeks
was 4570 tons. The daily ncragc con
sumption was 2001 tons ,
The commission issued the following
statement: . . .
The ice in storage on August I.
1!)1!). was ;).000 tons.
The daily output of plants was
t"0 tons. .
The average dally consumption nu
been ri!)04 tons.
There must be a further t onsen a
tion in the use of ice nnd for this
purpose the committee recommends:
Tee distributors are requested to
eliminate sales of ice for show-cases
or exhibition purposes.
To reduce the ice served to lestnur
nuts. drug stores, sodn fountains,
saloons, meat and milk stores IKi per
cent. , . ,
Kestnurants. soda fountains, drug
stores, saloons, etc.. continuing to
serve cracked ice will be reduced

In view of the small amount of ice
in reserve, the committee urges that
it is absolutely necessary that the

in order to avoid hardship, (uiftcring
and a definite health menace later in
the summer.

This Mammoth Store Shows Tremendous Values in Its
August Furniture Sale
Before you start on a tour of comparison in the August
Furniture Sales, which every homemaker should do before
fiinally buying, get this firmly fixed in your mind: What makes
value? Highest quality plus lowest price equals greatest value.
That's the Linde Store definition of value, based upon real, intrinsic
worth, not the mere manipulation of a profiteer's pencil upon a price tag.
Comparison will show you that the QUALITY of our furniture and floor
coverings cannot be excelled, for the very simple reason that there's nothing
better made. The same comparison will also demonstrate quite plainly that
we have the LOWEST PRICES. It is therefore self-evident that Linde Store
values exceed those of other August Sales.
Examine them all. See for yourself. Your own good judgment
will tell you where to buy. Our prices are the lowest because they arc
based upon what we paid for our merchandise six months ago, not upon
its present market value,, enhanced by three to five advances since we
bought it. Profiteers plead privilege to mark up goods with the market.
We play fair with our customers.
This is the Square Deal August Furniture Sale. The extent and variety
of our assortments are in keeping with the largest Furniture and Carpet Store
in Pennsylvania. You may readily be suited in price, design, woods and
coverings. As a special caution we desire to point out that we are so rushed
with business on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings that you must
come early in order to get prompt attention. t
Open Monday,-Wednesday and Friday Evenings Until 10 o' Clock
