Among the bidders on the structural steel work for the hotel will be the American Bridge Company of Elmira. it is understood. This concern would be in a very advantageous position to bid on the steel work because of the fact that there would be no excessive freight charges to be considered.

and Mrs. William A. Knowles of 318 Woodlawn Avenue, a son, Edward Chase, Feb. "The tuberculin test is not stat wide and Is not required by the State Departmnet of Health. If, as the cattle breeders claim, the test is a public health measure, it is hard to understand why the State Department of "Health and the State Legislature do not make it compulsory instead of optional.

It is equally difficult to understand why, if the test is a public health matter, the state sells the meat of the condemned cattle for public consumption without notice to the public that the meat Is from condemned cattle. "Tho Farmers' Protective Association claims that the tuberculin test is not a health measure. That its administration is not reliable. That it has resulted in large losses to farmers for which no compensation is made. That no occasion for any quarantine exists in Chemung." Commissioner Berne A.

Pyrke today stated that he had granted a respite for 37 of Chemung dairymen vho had applied to him for a permit to deliver their milk to a Wav-erly pasteurizing plant. Fifteen days of grace were granted, with the understanding that the individual cases be investigated by the Sate Department before permits to continue were granted. The quarantine is not effective on the 37 individauls who have applied for these permits" the commissioner stated, "but will be rigidly enforced on all others whose applications were not delivered to me Wednesday. Should investigation show that conditions are not as desired, the order will be bindinsr Prohibition Strikes Elmira With Chief Combs on Job About 200 dairymen of the Town of Chemung attended the meetings. Speakers declared their opposition to the farm bureau management because of its advocacy of tuberculin tests.

Attorney Harry Moseson, counsel for the members, authorized the following statement today: "The members of the Chemung County Unit of the New York State Farmers Protective Association held a meeting at Chemung last night for the purpose of discussing the quarantine order of the Department of Agriculture and Markets. It was unanimously decided that the association would continue Its resistance to the compulsory cattle tuberculin test prescribed by the quarantine order. "The entire situation was carefully surveyed as it was the sense of the meeting that the action of the Department of Agriculture and Markets in issuing the quarantine order was guided by erroneous information as to conditions in Chemung; that the true conditions do not warrant the compulsory test, nor do they warrant the quarantine, which is illegal. "After years of agitation on the part of breeders of pedigreed cattle, who have found in the tuberculin test a satisfactory means of unloading on the State through condemnation, unsatisfactory cattle, only four counties of the entire state have adopted a complete tuberculin test. In those counties the test was adopted voluntarily by the farmers.

In all other counties of the state the matter is optional with the towns, and th? dairymen. Elmira Heights Give Program For Members Church Class Philathea Class of Oakwood M. E. Church Has Enjoyable Meeting at the Community House Other Village Events. Elmira Heights, Mar.

Buck, 207 Hard Stuff Not to be Had Because Fear of Raids and the Beer Supply is Nearly Exhausted, With Little Prospects in Sight. Chief Milford M. Combs has the Elmira thirsty with tears in their eyes, instead of the usual beer to their lips. The dry chieftain has been in charge of the Elmira enforcement district only two weeks, but the power of his search and seizure warrants and the vigilance of his agents has been noticeable. The beer, with which Elmira Is usually well supplied, is running low, a canvass of the cafes, road-houses and speakeasies reveals.

It has been over 18 months since Elmira was so dry that not even a g'ass of foamy brew was' obtainable. And with the beer practically gone, and little prospect of more arriving for some time, the im C. Penney Department Store-Is Improved With Alterations ril Will Address Jewish Women Mrs. Estelle M.

Price to 17 Cents The oil industry, according to one official, has been more or less out of hand for a year because of the flowing in of tremendous supplies of crude oil. Both wholesale and retail sales have been at an unhealthy figure, and necessarily remained so until the crude oil situation reached equilibrium. Mandeville and Mrs.

The court will then appoint three commissioners, one of whom shall be an attorney, who will appraise the value of the land and buildings involved and fix a fair price to be paid to the present owners by the city. It may be possible that negotiations will be made by the city I to take over some of th proper ties without seeking to have them condemned, if a reasonable figure canle agreed upon with the pres- Vie widening work The Board of Public Works will ask for bids for the contract to widen and repave the street, from College Avenue to State Street, and this work may be inaugurated coincident with the beginning of the hotel construction or soon afterward. It is estimated that the expense of widening and paving these three blocks, exclusive of the cost of buying the required land will be about $30,000. and possibly less. The cost in-olved in carrying out the improvement on West Gray Street, from College Avenue to North Main Street, is confined to the actual widening and pavement work, as the property owners on each side of the street, have voluntarily offered to ded parcels of their land 10 feet deep to the city without reimbursement.

Once the actual wnrfc of construction is under way, it will be a comparatively short time before the hotel will begin to rise skyward with rapid strides. Mr. Hassett states that it is planned to have the hotel completed and fully equipped thnt it may be formally opened Dec. 'Ji. the date on which the Keenej- Theater was opened in 1925.

Many applications have already been made by prospective tenants for the 12 stores which win grace the first floor of the hotel building on North Main and West Gray Streets.

There they are doomed to disappointment because of the activities of Chief Combs. Proprietors have dumped their supplies in anticipation of a raid at any moment. But the absence of beer is being felt more than any thing else.

The thirsty are again digging up the home brew recipes, and large sales of raisins are expected within the next two weeks. Many cafe proprietors shake their heads sorrowfully when a patron asks for beer. They haven't a thing stronger than buttermilk. A few have a little beer left from the last carload brought into Elmira. But the few remaining barrels are disappearing, although" the bartenders are trying to conserve the supply by cutting down on the size of the glasses.

It looks as if Chief Conlbs was going to take the taste of alcohol out of the mouths of the thirsty, and instead give them a taste of real prohibition, the first the city has had in almost two j-ears. 1 'Above he is "seen snowing one fj tne movie queens of Burbank, a few of his secrets of long- vity. says tuo-i. aho uch, that's wny tney get anu a. fheir interest in nie.

Alterations to the J. C. Penney department store in the Snyder Building on North Main Street were announced practically complete today by Manager J. C. Tim-berlake.

The changes include a ladies'. Misses and girls ready-to-wear department, on an especially constructed mezzanine floor, a proposed rest room and alteration room. The addition will increase materially the room for stock on the main floor and, will result in a greater assortment of goods. The opening date of the store in its new dress will be announced Friday night in an advertisement in The Star-Gazette, Mr. Timber-lake stated.

He said that business demands had caused the J. C. Penney Company to adopt measures for increasing the size of the local store. A feature of the ready-to-wear department is the method of lighting used. During the store's opening hours natural light only will be used on the mezzanine floor, which is banked by a score of windows.

This will enable the purchaser to see the garment as it will look on the street. The windows face the south and the west and will allow color matching in the sunshine. Fully two-thirds of the second floor can be utilized by the company under the new system for other goods. Work on the addition was rushed and is practically completed after 30 days. R.

E. Decker, contractor, had charge of the work. Mr. Timberlake stated today that an increase in the sales force will be necessary. Several clerks were employed Wednesday, and others are expected to be employed soon.
