Better
Homes
returning soldiers and sailors, used to
life in the open air and to rigid-Army
sanitary standards, will not be content with
cramped or unhygienic homes.
These men will insist on spacious rooms,
with plenty of air and light, wide verandas,
roomy sleeping porches rind sun parlors, and
modern bathing and sanitary facilities.
Houses that do not meet the above require
ments will have to be remodeled. Shacks
and tenements must go.
Many thousands of new, sanitary dwell
ings are imperatively needed.
Now that Federal building restrictions
have been removed, there will be a most
unusual demand for all kinds of building
material.
The sooner you begin the better, for
while we have a good stock of lumber on
hand there will be a great need for
lumber.
I No matter what you are going to build
—come and sec us.

to-morrow morning will follow the

of the gifts will be done by James

Money in Bales. —The State High- j
way Department turned in almost j
$lOO,OOO to the State Treasury, rep-!
resenting payments for automobile j
licenses, the bulk of the checks or ;
notes or money orders being for les3
than $l5 and the whole making a!
bale which a man could not carry. |
It was one of the banner payments <
of any day. Shipments of automo- j
bile licenses for the last few days !
have been close to the record. The |
revenue for licenses for 1919 thus far '
received is almost $1,000,000.
Warning on Trees. State Fire
Marshal Howard E. Butz has issued
a Christmas time warning against
fire hazards in holiday season es
pecially on Christmas trees. "Adopt
stringent precautions against the
possibilities of casualties by fires. !
Avoid carelessness in handling j
Christmas tree decorations. Filmy |
decorations should not be used. See ;
to it that decorations of noninflam- j
| niable nature are used, says the j
| warning. It is suggested that wir-
I ing for trees be done by competent i
. electricians and that trees be se
curely fastened to the doors, while !
the warning is given to see that can- 1
dies are handled by grown-up per- j
sons and not by children. Marshal .
! Butz commends the activity of the \
| people of the state in cleaning up j
on tire prevention day and urges the
people of the state in handling i
packing material used for holiday t
| goods- and the prompt disposal of
waste and rubbish.
0100 Licenses Climb.— Oleomar
garine licenses for 1919 will run
close to 5,700, according to estimates

000. Dairy and Food Commissioner
James Foust has issued 1,400 more
licenses in 1918 than in tjie whole

been issued for small communities,
whereas ten years ago the bulk of

dustrial centers.
Grooine to He turn—Col. John C. i
Groome, head of the military pblice '
in France, is said by Philadelphia ■
newspapers to be on his way home !
to this country on a furlough. An- j
other interesting thihg is that the j
members of the First Troop, who '
were scattered throughout the army !
by orders from Washington and the
identity of the oldest military or
ganization in the country thereby i
.almost lost, will be regrouped under '
Colonel Groome as a part of military j
police forces. The splitting up of the j
cavalry is a sore point with many I
Pennsj-lvanians.
