ALSPURE ICE
Helps You
Keep House
What to eat is a
serious question
for the housewife
during the long,
hot days.
But with plenty of
ALSPURE ICE (all
pure) she can always
serve a tempting meal.
• Iced tea and lemonade
are hot weather joys.
A cool delicious salad
is easily prepared if the
necessary ice is on hand.
ALSPURE ICE en
ables you to buy in larger
quantities—it keeps your
meats, etc., in good, condi
tion.
The use of ice is an
economy not an ex
* pense.

COAL MEN MEET
IN THIS CITY
Should Not Do Away With
Pea Size Declares
Secretary
WALTER L. MONTGOMERY
Big improvements in the present
anthracite coal industry were advo
cated by officers of the Pennsylvania
Retail Coal Merchants' Association in
their reports at the opening of the
twelfth annual convention of that or
ganization in the Emcrson-Branting
hani Implement Company building.
James C. Tattersall, of Trenton,
president of the association, in his re
port- to the many delegates from
Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland
and New Jersey, declared that the an
thracite industry is the last of the
big industries to adopt modern meth
ods, including advertising campaigns.
Mr. Tattersall urged a daily compari
son of costs by ithe merchants, and
stated that they should have a profit
of $1.85 a ton oil a two thousand
pound basis.
He expressed confidence in the fact
that eventually operators will give a
cash discount for prompt payment.
"Educate the public to buy in. the
summer by advertising." was another
point which Mr. Tattersall discussed
at length, explaining methods to be
used by the merchants.
J. Arthur ftrunk, treasurer of the
association, reported that with all
expenses paid, there was $2,222.90 in
the treasury as a ensh balance for the
beginning of the year.
Increased cost in the handling and
delivery of coal, as well as increased
prices of the operators is responsible
for the advance ill the retail price
since the demands of the miners have
been granted, according to Wellington
M. Bertolot. of Reading, secretary of
the organization. A practical review
of the coal industry work in this sec
tion during the year was given, in his
report, in which he stated that the
association played a big part In the
taxation investigation which resulted
in its being declared unconstitutional.
Mr. Bertolet recommended the use
of mechanical devices in handling coal
to the merchants present this morn
ing, stating that this was one of the
means to be used in increasing profits.
Mechanical devices for unloading,
loading and auto trucks for delivery
were then discussed.
Mr. Betrolet also expressed his be-
I lief that the resizing of anthracite
! coal will finally be approved by the
( dealers, hut that pea coal must not be
i eliminated unless a suitable substitute
;is provided. Buckwheat coal pre
pared in a better manner will probably
i supplant the pea coal grade, he ex-
I plained.
Approval of the workmen's compen
sation act was expressed, but Mr. Ber
tolet said that the rates for the coal
! industry were too high in some re
] spects in comparison with those of
| other industries. All of the provisions
need to be tested, he went on to say,
i before anything definite is decided or
' before a plea is made for revision.
The speaker closed with an ap
proval of the motion pictures shown
in a number of Pennsylvania cities
of the anthracite mining industry at
which 10.000 were present, and also
of the organization of independent
operators.
The address of welcome this morn
ing to the many delegates was given
by Walter L. Montgomery, with the
response by President Tattersall.
F. L. Wright represented the Harris
burg Chamber of Commerce in the
absence of J. William Bowman, presi
dent, and welcomed the visitors to the
city. Frank J. Wallis. vice-president
of the Merchants' Association, re
sponded to this address.

secretary that they would attend the
sessions, and a large number of these
were registered this morning. The
membership is distributed as follows:
Pennsylvania, 935; New Jersey, 120;

mitted this afternoon from a number

With Roosevelt Predicts
He Will Support Hughes
Oyster May, X. Y., June 20.—After '
a conference here last night with
Theodore Roosevelt I'nited Statesmen- >
ator Henry Cabot Lodge. of .Massa
chusetts, declared that he believed the
former President would support
Charles E. Hughes in the forthcoming
campaign.
"I found Colonel Roosevelt looking |
much better than T had expected,"
said Senator Lodge. "Of course, we
discussed Mr. Hughes, but very little
of Mexico."
"Will the Colonel support Mr. !
Hughes?" he was asked.
"That is my impression." replied
Senator Lodge.
Significance was attached to Sen
ator Ipodge's visit, as he had conferred
earlier in the day in New York with
Mr. Hughes and members of the Re
publican national committee.
It was the first time the Senator had j
seen Colonel Roosevelt since the latter j
suggested him as a compromise candi- |
date to the Republican and Progres
sive conventions in Chicago.
Other visitors to see Colonel Roose
velt at Sagamore Hil! were C. P. Con
nelly and A. J. Hopkins, of New Jer
sey. who are said to represent the '
"radical" wing or the Progressive
party; E. A. Van Valkenburg, William
Flinn and William Draper Lewis, of |
Pennsylvania; Everett Colby, of New
Jersey; James R. Garfield, of Ohio, I
and O. K. Davis, secretary of the Pro- |
gressive national committee.
