During the hot weather milk par Ocularly susceptible to contamination and for that reason the U.

S. Depart ment of Agriculture Is Issuing a time ly warning to housewives: Beware of Unclean Milk! When milk Is delivered It should be put into the refrigerator at once. A very, brief exposure to summer heat makes It unfit for use. If It Is impos sible to have the bottles put immedi ately into the refrigerator, provide on the porch a box containing a lump of Ice. In planning a house, arrange to have the refrigerator set In the wall with an opening on the outside.

It 13 always possible to provide locks for these boxes or refrigerator doors, and suply the milkman with a key. The Interior of the food compartment should be wined every day with a clean cloth, and thoroughly scalded as often as once a week. Under no clr rumstances should the drainpipe of an ice box be connected with a sewer. Before removing the cap from bottle of milk, the cap and the neck of the bottle should be washed and carefully wiped with a clean cloth. The cap should not be pushed down into the milk.

It may be easily re moved with a sharp pointed Instru ment without Injuring the contents. The bottle when once open should be kept covered and the milk should be kept in the original bottle until It Is used up. The original cap should not be replaced, but Instead an inverted glass may be put over the top of the bottle. The bottle when not In use, should, of course, always be left the refrigerator, and any milk that has been poured from it into another vessel should not be poursd back. Onions end other foods having a strong odor, especially during the hot weather, very easily impart their distinctive smell to milk that is left uncovered.

This is an additional reason for always keeping milk in a covered receptacle. Milk bottles should never be taken into a sick room for as they are usually returned to the milkman they may thus carry infectious diseases Into otir homes. In any case, bottles should be given reasonable care before they are returned to their owner. The practice of pouring vinegar or kerosene or other liquids Into them temporarily when not in use should by all means be discouraged. The containers should be washed in cold water first and finally in warm water before they are returned to the farmer supplying the milk.

These little details of cleanliness are matters which can not be regulated by the Federal or the State Governments, rules and regulations that require pure milk to be delivered to the home may be rendered valueless by careless individuals in the home. The best efforts of the milkman or farmer to deliver first class milk will amount to nqthing unlass individual housewives will co opsrate for the good of the community. OUR BOORS ABROAD Judge E. Henry Lacombe, of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, New York district, is the latest American citizen to win fame or notoriety abroad by his remarkably easy going manners. At the hearing of a case in the staid court of the King's Bench division in London "the doors were suddenly pushed open and Judge La combe strode Into the room and walked straight to the private stairway leading to the bench, staggering the ushers, who were too flabbergasted to oppose his progress.

Justice Bankes, Immersed in legal documents, did not notice the visitor, who mounted the stairs and to the consternation of the officials smilingly approached the Justice and handed him his card." The English jurist quickly recovered him self, however, and invited his visitor to a seat on the bench, and later took him to luncheon, where he was Introduced to other Justices of the high courts. England has hardly recovered yet from the shock caused when the late Mark Twain, attending a garden party, tapped King Edward on the back, although another version says he merely put his hand In a friendly manner on the monarch' shoulder. Probably the eyewitnesses were too flustered to remember the exact form of the desecration. Not long ago a newly appointed American minister to an European country on his way to his post astonished everybody by his easy familiarity with members of royalty. Many years ago a party of American clergymen visiting Windsor Castle were walking In the grounds when Queen Victoria happened to drive along in her little pony carriage, attended by her usual retinue of guardians.

One of the preachers, who hitherto had been regarded as perfectly sane, was so' overcome by the imminence of royalty that he dashed into the middle of the road and, as the queen's carriage approached, took oft his tall hat with a sweeping bow and exclaimed in stentorian tones "Victoria, America salutes you." He narrowly escaped being arrested. It would be a good thing if our Euro pean cousins could be made to under stand that not all the visitors from this side, who are guilty of such gaucherles, are fair representatives of American manners and knowledge of the world. KNOCKERS' OBSEQUIES Reading ought to have a funeral, a big funeral with a band and every thing that goes with the ceremony, we ought to bury the hammer as did Patereon, New Jersey. In Paterson the other day the city authorities and the Board of Trade foregathered and decided to put an end to the constant unkind criticism of the town and its institutions. They decided to bury the hammer and ask all the knockers to the funeral.

A huge engraved invitation was deliver ed by special messenger to the Ancient and Honorable Anvil Chorus. They proceeded to knock the invitation but they accepted it and the procession was something like this: One large hammer, (convicted of endless Injury the city and Its business by back biting), resting in state upon the hearse, drawn by six black horses; Chief mourners as follows "Habitual Grouch," "Chronic Kicker" and "Old Pessimist." After the hammer had been buried a deep grave and watered well by crocodile tears, the three mourners were torn apart and their straw bodies were scattered over the mound, and the band struck up the "New Progress" march. Right here In Reading there is a good place for such a funeral. Those three mourners could be Invited, together with the Wielders of Wet Blankets, the Dousers of Cold Water and the Society for the Prevention of the Advance of Good Times. The ceremony might be varied to a more spectacular touch by burning in effigy some of the attendants while the Boosters' Club sang songs of fiendish, cannibal glee.

To add fuel to the flames there might be cast Into the conflagration the magnifying glasses whereby the insignificant faults of old Reading are exaggerated till they hurt usiness and credit. The testimony of false witnesses, of which we seem to have a considerable number here might be very excellent material to feed the blaze, since such testimony is never anything but highly inflammable. A demonstration like this, even In effigy would convey a deeper lesson than all the printed protests ever put into type. No doubt the fire of enthusiasm there engendered might spread and grow until every man, woman and child in the town had become inflamed with "The Right Idea," which Is, if you are going to live in Reading, Reading is the best place under the sun. It is generally the case that when anyone knocks the town, he does it from personal spite or from thoughtlessness.

Take exception to the next derogatory remark about Reading and see how soon the knocker will change his tune and come round to your way of thinking. The dog without a muzzle Is now enjoying his picnic season, ae it were. No muzzle is hi3 to handicap him, and he is a free factor in a free country. Fish stories are coming to the surface big ones the authors declaring they can prove all ihey say. And that settles it.

I know a pool in iWeafy dell That the wary trout love best. And a timid trail to the chaparral Where the red deer lie at rest. A night bird's call when the shadows fall And a cougar's eerie cry, A silence deep, and a dreamless sleep Under the open sky. W. JBurna, in LaaUa'a.

SEYMOUR SITES. THE FORTHCOMING FOURTH To the Editor of The News Times: The nation wide effort to break up the old custom of celebrating the birthday of our Independence, with a lot of accidents and deaths; by the sacrifice of our children, or the loss of hands or sight; is a most worthy one. And we are glad to know that our own goodly city is interested In a matter so Important and right. Be sides the dangers to person we have those from fires, the frightening of animals, the nerve racking of inva lids, the tiresome noise and the litter of highways and byways, for some one else to clear away. It Is better to be interested in the Fourth of July in a way that will show everybody what a strong nation we are grown to be.

Parades, national music, illuminations, and fireworks (If the latter are In trusty hands), and exhibitions of historic interest are true ways of showing patriotism. The funds for these things are growing. Let us help the mayor and his committee to make the Fourth this year one of the best in our history. CAPUT. BATHING DECENCY Editor Reading News Times: Now that the "paid fire department question is settled, the "council" will soon be casting about for a proposl tion on which they can expend some money.

Their quest will probably lead them to that good old standby, The Citv Beautiful." In this connec tion, what do you think of propositions to expend some of the city funds in an effort to beautify the morals of some of the men and boys who go swimming in the Schuylkill River between Penn street bridge and the R. R. bridge? Here is a chance to do something worth while. No woman with a spark of decency in her will ever make a second trip along the River road on the west bank of the river between the two bridges under existing conditions. I am a lover of nature in all its forms, barring tne bandy legged, pot gutted, misshapen specimens of the two legged hog tribe who frequent this locality and bath in a state of nature.

I have no objection to their trying to clean themselves on the outside, provided they clothe themselves in even so scanty a costume as a fig leaf, but they are incapable of cleaning them selves on the inside, and this task the city might undertake. I have tried at various times to break up this dirty business through the aid of the Reading police department, the county officials and the state police without success. If you think I am exaggerating conditions come over any of these warm day and look the situation over; it will give vou good material for an editorial campaign on decency. This practice could be broken up by the Reading po. lice, as most of the bathing is on the Reading side of the river, it you know of any person who does not believe in eugenics send them over to this locality for research work it will them good.

Yours for decency. E. L. ANTHONY, C. West Reading Plant RECEPTION TO PASTOR New Minister at Wyomlssin Greeted by Congregation A delightful reception was tendered Rev.
