had decided that, innsmnch as her sister-in-law
was-n succesSf sho would
acclaro herself definitely on her side.
a'ho conversation was desultory until
the men joined them, and at 10 o'clock,
when the dancing wns started in the two
nig connecting rooms on tno library,
somo of tho older pcqplo started bridge

Winona was so sane, so wholesome, that
a little warmth thawed tho ice that had

ELITE JOIN THE UNWASHED
WHILE FOUNTAIN GURGLES
Rittenhonsc Square Residents Must Forgo Usual Batfi Until
Water Shortage Is Remedied Davis Raps Waste
Water water everywhere but not n
drop to bntho in. This Is tho predlca-'
ment in many 'homes in tho Rlttcn
houso Squaro section. '
It might bo an exaggeration to say
thero is no water N whatever. Tliero is
some, but it drops languidly and hesi
tatingly into tho tubs; and thoso of
great girth and largo" displacement hnvo
consldorbnle difficulty in engulfing them
selves in sufficient aqua pura.
And James, tho valet, therefdro Rets
a blast from his master every morn bo
cause tho "bawth" is almost waterless..
Meanwhile the big fountain spreading
llko the chcstnjtt tree in nittenhouso
Squaro bubbles boisterously nnd per
scverlngly nnd has dono so all winter.
Naturally tho residents of that sec
tion arc indignant. If they want to
batho in their third-floor bath they turn
the water on tho night before nnd it
gurgles into tho tub through the night.
Like all other squares, Rittcnhouse
is under tho suDcrvislon of tho Fair-
mount Park Commission. Home of the.
commissioners arc down at Palm Bench,
wheer the Atlantic ocean is moro lib
eral than tho Rittcnhouse bathtubs,
but those who nru still hero say that
the whole matter is exaggerated.
Some of tho commissioners say tho
fountain docs not affect tho pressure
in the neighborhood.
Chief Davis, of the water bureau,
thinks differently.
"Residents of homes should havo

Which Is going on all over tho city.
- A small clcdic pump placed under
tho fountain would solve tho matter,
but as thcro' are many fountains in the
city that would increase tho cost of elec
tricity. '.
"-'I cannot imagine," said the chief,
"who wants to sit In a cold square in
a snowstorm nnd watch a fountain
play. It would bo much better if the
fountain were stopped from November
to April."
