The residents of East Grinstead, an
English village. are the latest persons who
have been alarmed by the disappearance
of a local stream. There is nothing un-
precedented in such an event. 1t was only
last year that Sven Hedin, the Swedish
explorer reported the disappearance of a
lake which has long been known as Lob
Nor. and one of the islands of the Tonga
group in the South Seas disappears peri
odically Switzerland has even now

out several towns: and it is recorded that
in 1906 a portion of the Ronberg, near Lu-
cerne rolled down into Lake Lowertz,
creating an immense wave which swept
awav several hamlets drowned every liv-
ing creature on the island of Schwanau,
and carried little wooden chapel over
mile.

Much attention is being given in Eng
land to road engines for general trans
portation &C merchandise. These engines
differ from traction engines, so called,
which have been in use for many years.
in that they are lighter faster, and carry
more freight than the older type They
are very easily handled, less cuuibrous in
every way, ard en tirely manageable under
conditions of city traffic, going into the
most crowded thoroughfares among all
other vehicles without disaster. They
carry, on an average. about five tons of
freight, and have both steam and oil mo-
tors-in different classes, of course The
engines are carried under the freight plat
form, and the boilers use coke fuel which
makes no smoke. There Is no reason why
the same class of freight truck could not
be used in this country: II they were
they would contribute in some degree to
the relief of traffic. inasmuch as more
freight could be moved in a given time
on one truck. The length of these ma
chine-trucks Is about twenty feet over
all, so they would occupy less room than

ercised the priceless privileges OF
thoughtlessness and swapping now
and then, as girls, and other than
girls, have always done; but I
think it cannot be denied that
the girl Of a generation ago had a
conscience on the subject Of debts Of
gratitude such as few have had since
her day.
I have said that I am afraid that
with many Of us today it is lost art.
I am sure that 1t is not given that
prominence which it once had, and
that it Is not cultivated with the en-
thusiasm with which it once was.
Girls are taught what etiquette says
about it, but etiquette deals only from
the lips outward, and the result is
that even our language tells the story
of the decadence Of thanksgiving. A
traveller from Mars might hear our
'Thanks!' million times and never
suspect that 1t was meant as an ack-
nowledgment of favor. I am sure
that up to, say, dozen years ago, in
those parts of our country where gal
lantry has held out longest, one could
not give up a seat in car without
being sure Of full return in an ac-
acknowledgement that meant to ac-
knowledge something, and that to-
day the average man is utterly upset
and undone when his ears catch the
old sweet sound.
OF course this does not justify or
account for the current lack of gal
lantry among men, but I am not en-
gagged in the hopeless task of restoring
men to the old paths. but in the hope
full one of pointing out neglected
talent which the most charming OF
girls may cultivate with good results.
am not grumbling. do not mean to
whit behind the girl of the past. I do
not believe in the decadence of women.
l believe that the girl of today is equal
to the girl her mother used to be; but
I do not believe that it is enough to
say of our girls that they are equal
it is enough to say of flower that has
had the best attention of the best
florists for a generation that it is as
beautiful today as it was thirty years
ago.
If we have done wisely, the girl Of
today ought to have not only some
thing which her mother lacked, but
she ought to have all her mothers
graces as we'll. But II is a serious
question whether in pressing her de-
velopment we have Tot cultivated
some qualities at the expense of
others, just as in pressing the devel-
opment of a certain flower we have
increased its size and beauty at the
expense of it's fragrance.
