CAPTAIN Mahan,s Advice.

The fact that the British navy estimates have
equaled the sum OF $26 ,21O reveals the
persistency with which Great Britain has fol-
lowed the advice concerning the enlargement
of her hattle-ships and her cruisers. Without
her Powerful and Terrible the ships of the
British squadron would be very small COM
pared with the American battle-ships OF the
Massachusetts and Oregon build. Neverthe-
less, she is constructing naval fighters on the
lines laid down by the distinguished American
critic Captain Mahan. There is no reason why
America should not by following the advice Of
this foremost critic OF the naval power of the
world, become the autocrat OF the seas.-Phil-

Parks and Cities.

The moral of the experiences of the average
city in securing parks and adding touches of
adornment is against the evil of procrastina-
ton. Cities should plan for future growth and
not wait until it is all but impossible to accom-
plish what should have been done almost at
the start. Milwaukee may consider herself
fortunate in having reserved portion of her
lake front, and she is to be congratulated that
with comparatively little money she will be
able to construct lake driveway that will be
unexcelled by any like thoroughtare in the
Wisconsin.
