I'lioenix has eighteen mail earriers
now seventeen of whom will he en
gaged in the delivery of mail, while
number IS will he engaged' part of
the time delivering parcel post mat
ter, and the remainder of the time
making collations. Number" IS will
have an auto allowance and within
a week panel post matter will be de
llvered all through the residence sec
tions of tlie city in a 'brand new car.
In certain portions of the city the
service has I men extended, and in
others two deliveries will be given
where one has been given before.
The orders from headquarters are
that no new service shall be given
unless i be householders provide re
ceptacles for mail matter. During
the last two weeks a thorough can
vass of the city has been made and
every house has been noted as to
whether or not there was a receptacle
and as to the character of the re
ceptacle provided.
Many receivers of mail have pro
vided themselves with attractive and
uniiiie recpetaeles: jardinieres on
fbnver stands grace the front porch,
woven ollas, Indian baskets of unique
design. Indian pottery tastefully
painted and also the conventional tin
receptacles are found in all parts of
the city. .
The city carriers look with much
favor upon the jardinieres, ollas and
baskets because they are not only
attractive, hut ' easv of access and
provide a quick and convenient place
to deposit the . mail,
As any of these receptacles can be
provided for a cost of from 2
to one dollar it is strange that eaery
house in the city is not provided.
Postmaster C. I. AVood says:
"Kvery effort will be made to give
efficient, economical service. If the
public will co-operate with the postal
service, it wilt enable the postoffice

Why Not Keep Chickens? It's Lots of Fun. And a
Little Want Ad Will Find Regular Buyers for the Eggs
Just think how convenient and what a lot of pleasure it must be to
get your eggs fresh and to have an occasional chicken from your own
"flock." The expense of chickens is almost nothing and the pleasure you
get from keeping them is great. Besides, if you work it right, there is lots
of "pin money" in it. A little Want Ad inserted in this paper will get you
into immediate touch with people who will start you off. Another little
Want Ad will find families who will buy your eggs regularly. But perhaps
you are a dealer in chickens, eggs and the like. A little Want Ad will carry
your message to thousands of homes and produce for you steady customers.

(Special to The Republican
I-'LOl'.rCNCE, April 1. For the
fourth time in one season, the Giia
river rose today and washed out
the north apioach to the state high

The rise, which amounted to a fo.ir

of 4 men from the state prison
had just finished temporary repairs
to the apioach when the washout oc

For
extra good cooking
always use Cottolene
When you use Cottolene you get the best results, because there
is no other cooking fat that equals it
For biscuits, pie-crust, cakes and doughnuts and for frying,
Cottolene is supreme, because it is the purest cooking fat and
possesses important food values.
It is an exact combination of specially refined cottonseed oil, of a grade so high it
is not listed on the market, with pure beef-stearine from selected leaf beef suet
It is this precise combination which gives Cottolene its unexcelled cooking qualities.
There are imitations, but there is no substitute for Cottolene. For over a quarter
of a century t has rightfully held a position peculiarly and distinctively its own.
For economy, as well as for good cooking, use Cottolene. You will require a
third less of it than of any other shortening cr cooking fat
We guarantee Cottolene for its purity,, for its wholesome qualities, for its food
value, and for its superiority as shortening.
Anyone who can cook or bake at all can cock and bake
better with Cottolene.
Cottolene contains no salt or water it is 100 clean, pure
cooking fat

CANADA AGAINST LIQUOR
Stand Takn by King George Meets
Approval in the Dominion
f ASSOCIATED PRSSS DISPATCH
MONTREAL, April 1. The stand
taken by King George in regard to
the lirjuor question in Great Britain
has been warmly approved in Can
ada and has given added impetus to
the prohibition movement in the do
minion. Saskatchewan has already abolish
ed the bar for the duration of the
war. Manitoba and Ontario have
initiated restrictive legislation in re
gard to the sale of liquor.
Dispatches from St. John quoted
Premier Clark of New Brunswick as
saying that his government was con
sidering the prohibition of the use of
alcohol in the province of New
Brunswick during the war. Premier
Murray of Nova Scotia assured a
temperance delegation which asked
today that an advanced step toward
prohibition be taken, that his gov
ernment had the matter under consideration.

TASSOCIATED PRE89 DISPATCH "
WASHINGTON, April 1. Ambas
sador Sharp at Paris was cabled
by the state department for a report
as to the circumstances surrounding
me arrest ot Kaymond Swohoda, an
American citizen, charged with hav
ing set fire to the La Touraine, a
French liner, on her recent trip from
New York to Havre. Frinds of
Swohoda in New York had brought
press reports of his arrest to the
department's attention and vouched
for his American citizenship.
It was pointed out tonight that for
present the state' department could
do no more than instruct Sharp to
see that Swoboda gets a fair trial in
the courts. Diplomatic negotiations
can follow only in the case the am
bassador reported there is reason for
believing that justice has not been
accorded. Swobodas right to the
passport he exhibited in New York
and Paris is already under investi
gation by the justice department, a
duplicate from the files of the state
department having been referred to
for that purpose. This however, is
rgarded merely as a routine pro
cedure, and there seemed no ground
for doubting the man was entitled to
whatever protection the Fnited States
government extends its citizens under
similar circumstances.

LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR DECIDES
associated press dispatch
SACRAMKNTO, April 1 One of the
most dramatic legislative battles in
years was rettled when Lieut. Governor
Kshleman voted "no" and broke the
'Hi to -'0 tie on the Butler dry zone bill
upon which had been concentrated the
tensest and most strenuous senate
fighting of the present session. Since
1S37, when Lieut. Gov. Jeter cast the
deciding vote on the Coyote scalp bill,
no one has been able to discover anoth
er instance of the fate of a measure
being determined by the lieutenant
governor.

NOT "JUST A RICH MAN"
Everyone who admires a builder of
big business and a man whose ability
has developed one of the greatest
newspapers of the nation is glad to
hear that Col. W. R. Nelson of The
Kansas City Star is recovering from
his serious illness. Abilene Reflector.
And yet if these two things, his
money and the circulation and adver
tising record of his newspaper, were
all that he had to his credit, Mr.
Nelson probably would be glad enough
to turn over and die. and no one would
care, whether he did or didn't. What
he would live for. and what all the
people would have him live for is to
continue in his splendid struggle a
struggle that has been his life's work
for those things in his town, his section
and his Nation, which maek life better.

Take it in Kansas, for instance. The

It has
Supported the Prohibition Law;
The Primary Law ;
The Anti-Pass Law ;

make no difference whether he lived or

only, no one would care what happened
to him. But because he uses every j
ounce of his great power for the com-

those who need more in their lives ,
that is why this part of the Vnited j
