PERSONAL j [Other Personals on Page B.] KETTLES MIO TUBS FOB TECp PROF. | Just Part of Little Kitchen Shower Given in Honor of Mr. Rees I Newly married professors at Tech- j nieal high school are lucky fellows. Professor Jesse F. Rees. who joined ' the double team class last week, was , shown this fact this morning, when the boys at the school gave him a real | kitchen shower at the chapel exer cises. j Professor Rees thought nothing of ] it when none of the senior boys ap- : peared In th'eir place at chapel. A j few minutes later the orchestra \ changed suddenly from a hymn I to a more stately rendition of the ' "Lohengrin" bridal chorus, and as the | entire crowd of Tech boys hummed t "Here comes the bride" twenty stal wart seniors staggered down the aisles i to a place In front of Professor Rees. I Each one had arms fllled with tin ) pans, dish pans, frying pans, brooms, I a tub, coal scuttles, rolling pins and endless other articles for use in the Rees kitchen. As the professor looked in amaze ment at the procession the boys laid their burden at his feet in a huge pile and Basil Tittle, in a speech of pres entation, handed over to him each one of the seventy-five articles. When Professor Rees had recovered suffi ciently to respond he gave an invita tion to the unmarried members of the faculty to join the ranks and the boys cheered the two members referred to. Professor Rees will have to hire a wagon to haul his collection of kitchen utensils home to Mrs. Rees, who was Miss fan Keet. „ SORX BURGER—HOIiLiE V Elmer C.

The upper end was filled with the dwellers, huddled about a few stoves In which part of the row was burning. Captain Neilsen, of the Salvation Army, says he finds this is the prac tice in many homes he has visited. "When the cold comes, they must have fire, and the least prized of the articles of furniture are used to warm the shivering owners." Little Aid Asked At the offices of the charitable or ganizations this morning surprise was expressed over the fact that the bitter cold weather of to-day and yesterday has not increased materially the num ber of applications for help in the way of food, coal and clothing. Although this was the semiweekly relief day at the office of the Directors of the Poor, John P. Guyer, the clerk, said that the applicants were not so numerous as on many other warm winter days. There were twenty-five up to a late hour this morning. "Many of these applicants live in homes that are leaky enough to re quire steady coal fire on warm days," lie said, "and colder weather doesn't increase the necessities of these peo ple much." At the office of the Associated Char ities it was said that there was no un usual rush for help, but it was stated thut a number of applicants had called during the morning. Chief of Police Hutchison had the same comment to make about the number of requests jfor aid made at police headquarters. Captain Neilsen, of the Salvation Army, has a house full of men at the Salvation Army headquarters. "We have more than a full house," he said, "but as they are transient, I can't tell offhand how many we have eared for yesterday and to-day. Many of them leave as soon as they get something to eat and get warm." One Above Zero The weather was colder by one de gree to-day then it was yesterday. This morning at 8 o'clock the official ther mometer at the Federal Building reg istered one degree above zero. The highest temperature in the last twen ty-four hours was eleven degrees at 3.30 yesterday afternoon. Snow arrived shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon, the beginning of which was headed this way yesterday, but was deflected and retarded in its ad vance. Snow was reported in many Southern cities this morning. The red flag was flying at tlje of fices of the Park Commission this morning, and the skating at Wildwood was reported as good.. Many skaters 1 crowded the lake yesterday. Some hope is held out for warmer weather by Sunday if the storm due here to night develops. That hope is "some" hrpe In the hearts of many.

It is up to us to make good in the work that is under our charge, but too often the public Is misinformed regarding the real ob jects sought to be attained and con sequently jumps to conclusions which are not justified by the real condi tions. All we can expect is a suspen sion of judgment until we shall have had time to work out the plans which are In mind for the Improvement of tho city and the efficient discharge of our duties. "I believe entirely too much stress is placed upon whatever this person or that shall be retained or appointed to a place on the municipal roll, espe cially in view of the fact that this is a nonpartisan proposition. We must be judged In the last analysis by what we do." There appears to be no doubt what ever about the appointment of the old Park Commission as the first City Planning Commission, and it is un derstood that Mr. Taylor will intro duce his resolution creating this com mission at the meeting of the Council next week. This commission was pro vided for in an act of the last Legis lature and it is believed that Its work is bound to benefit the city in every way. It is also pointed oivt that the naming of the old Park Commission will be a gracious compliment to tho gentlemen composing the old board.

Mrs. Hunt, Married Five Times, Dies in Kentucky By Associated Press Lexington, Ky., Feb. 13.—Mrs. Dora Brock Clay Hunt, who gained national notoriety fifteen years ago when sho married General Cassius Marcel lus Clay, at that time in his ninetieth year, died at her home near here to day. At the time of her wedding to General Clay Mrs. Hunt was 16 years old and General Clay, who was at one time minister to Russia, mounted a cannon and barricaded his home in Madison county in order to prevent any successful attempt on the part of his relatives to stop the ceremony.
