fifiwxfifi We are safe in saying that ubon no one owning. property on gbe avenue will'the burden fall heinu icr than upon us. But all we ésk is that the public officials see tojit that we get the best possible im- prmements for this cost. ' We have seen one improvement after another in the beautiful (fit)!- The growth has not been tepid but healthy. Today there is- no more delightful suburb along the North Shore nor on any Otherside _of Chicago One night last week we greatly rejoiced when the City Council' passed the ordinanceto macadam the avenue down which we took that first walk. Will it cost money? Of course it will. ‘ 'But the wise nian will not antenna!1 to perform the afternoon’s work on an empty stomach simply be- cause a dinner would cost money.

We were art the wrong side of the halfwenEtury mark, but thanks . to Provi- dence and the liberality of! the Highland Park citizens that child survived After viewing the premises and finding some tiine to spare, we took a walk down Ravine Avenue to the lake sided The agent prov- ed very social and‘ entertaining, but before we had reached the lake, we had forgotten that we had company. VTo use the ex- pression of -a friend and prohibi~ tionist, who when intensely de- ighted, always remarked "It ii led me full,” ,the scenery from Sb‘ Johns avenue to the lake ikont filled us full” and before weéhad got back to the railway station we had decided to possess in‘some way the property which we had come to view. \Ve saw the beauty and " possibilities of Highland Park.

EJitor Wort]: 57:01:: I“ News-Letter ”The sale.” he says, ”to the Guggenheim interests of land rich in coal and copper, with even great possibilities for agriculture, at $10 an acre, was a barter for a mere song. ldo not say the trans- fer was iraudulent. For all I know. every step was legal; but the laws must be wrong when so great an injustice is possible- Those natural resources belonged to the whole Republic. It is wrong to dispose of them atany price. much more at that ridiculousl price. I'favo‘r government own- ership of natural resources Privi- lleges for short periods and under careful supervision can be let at sufficiently liberal terms to attract capital. and the country can be de- veloped without being exploited.” The Episcopal Bishop of Alaska puts the matter in clear language; For some years past here and there, individuals have been aware of the'great 'wrong being done the public by disposing to individuals, generally for a sbng. extensive lumber landsrrich coal mines, vastwater power and other lforrns of natural utilities: I but the great mass of our people have been to all appearance indifferent. Now they are being awakened; andit is a characteristic of the“ American people that once arous- ed they take to the war path very vigorously. If we mistake not the Guggenheim deal will prove the beginning of the end of this pub-. lic wrong. ~ ' levents exceedingly regretable in ‘themselves work out great good in the end. Nothing has ever hap- pened which has so widely called attention to the importance of conserving our natural resources in general and our forests in par- ticular. as the investigation now going on over. the Ballinger-‘Pin‘. chot clash., To the individuals themselves, one or both, it may prove disastrous; but however. it culminates. to the public 'at large it willprove a blessing. It fretwcntly happens that , Ola-Form. Matter is made up of particles called molecules, so small, that Sir William Thomson estimated that if a drop of water were mag- nified to the size of-the earth, the molecules of.water would each be less than the-[size of an ordinary baseball and larger than small shot. When we apply heat to a bar of iron these molecules, which are forever moving, ‘ move a little faster. . If we cool the iron they1 movea little slower.' The same thing is true ofa liquid or ofa gas. There is this difference, lthouzh. in the character of the ‘molecular motion in. the three conditions in which matter exists. In solids. the molecules move back and forth, just like tiny pen- dulums; in liquids. the molecules wander.all" around without any apparent aim. and in ’no regular pathsin gases, the motion is sup- posed to be in perfectly straight The order is a result of the in- vestigation of a number of,mis- haps on these roads. where it has been discovered that the .loss of property, ife and limb have been the result of drinking employes. We do not. wish to have in our employ men who drink liquor. Do not employ men who drink liquor. Do not employ drinking men. If men now working under you drink. tell them they must stop or make way for men who will not drink." i The entire railroad' -svstem con- trolled by James J. Hill has issued an anti-drinking order which will not be relished by the liquor men .along the' thousands of miles which the Great Northern and Northern Pacific lines traverse- The order reads as follows: Geologists determine the age of any rock out-crop by an examina- tion of the fossils it contains, so too. may one know who Is des- poiling a neighborhood by the contents of the dump- A bunch of discarded wire‘ window screens or an old piece of tar roofing feltl may recall to our mind that our esteemed neighbor. Mr X- Y- 2.. lately renewed his window screens and repaired his chicken house roof. "We immediately blame Mr. X. Y Z. We know him well and consider him a most desirabie citizen, and we throw the veil of charity over him and come to the conclusion that it is the hired man who. Is to blame. Still, we must censure him some for not noticing that the rubbish that will accumulate’around ones place had not been carried .off by the gar- bage man whom all should pat- ronize. When Mr. X. Y. Z. is notified that be. through his ser- vants, has been disfiguringother people's property, he should not only stopall further despoilation. but should remove allx the refuse on his neighbor’s loté'and restore it to its original condition as much as it is in his power to do so. W. C. EGAN, What is Absolute Zero? sesses more legal ownership in- terest there than he does on a neighboring lot. He ngturally will - exclaim ”I dont want that rubbish in front of me," but he should go further, and think of the other fellow who don't want the rubbish on his grounds. If one intends despoiling spaces outside his owri lot lines. let him use the sidewalk.,or parkway in front of his residence. as he pos- tetest except the bwner. Side- nialks. parkmys. ' and private alleys belong t9 the community. and all citizens have a certain. but somewhat. limited ownenhipcright in them.
