PLANNING A CITY.
Similarity Of Experience in Detroit
and Washington.

From the Detroit Tribune.
In his lecture before the Century Club
Thursday night, Charles Moore said many
things which appeal TO the good sense and
civic pride OF Detroters. When the plan
of this city was first laid out, it was In &C
cordance with the ideas of LEnfant, who
planned the city of Washington. For many
years the residents of Detroit did not really
believe that this would ever become the
great city that 1t now is. Most of the resi-
dents were people who gave no thought to
the future. and they had Very crude Ideas
Of art as applied to the planning OF city.
Judge Woodward's plan was subject OF
laughter while the footways of the old VII
lage were composed of pairs OF hewn logs
laid side by side. when the Intervals We're
pieced out with rough slabs. and when the
driveways were mud OF varying depth. To-
day thoughtful people are wishing that the
original plan had been more closely fol-
lowed. They are looking forward to the
day when the local government will wake
up and maintain closer regulation over
the planning of streets and see that the
peoples money invested in public buildings
Is not hidden under a bushei or behind
rookeries.
Two abuses may be mentioned which are
particularly effective in marring the beauty
Of the city and multiplying the inconven-
fence Of the citizens. The county building.
by far the most expensive and pretentfous
building in the state. barring the capitol.
Is placed where the facade IL half obscured
by row Of ancient has-beens and where
the other elevations are hedged IN by mar
row streets which prevent good view.
In order to give the city and the citizens the
ornamental benefit they have paid we'll for,
much private property must be purchased
and old buildings must be RACED. The prop
erty could have been obtained at better fig-
ures before Its value was doubled or trebled
by the erection OF the building It obscures

mental to the general Interest, because 1T

PHYSIOLOGY OF THE HOLIDAY
Whence Comes the Benefit Of Summer
Months in the Country.

Months in the Country.
From the American Physician.
Now that the holiday time has come and
gone We may do well to consider what is
the active principle of q holiday, and the
reason of it's influence. The ordinary ex-
plantations of the holiday cure are very
vague For instance, we attribute our i'm
provement to fresh air. but there is no evil
dence that the chemical results Of country
air inside of US can Withstand hours
exposure to the air of large city. We
say that the change has done good but
we should be hard put to 1t to define our
meaning, or to draw the line between
change and the memory of change. We are
sure that our holiday has somehow re-
Immediately after as We did before. It is
difficult. therefore, to explain the action of
holidays; We can only observe that they
fail to act on those who do not need them,
and on those who do not know how to take
them and are constant to res ume wherever
they go the ha bits and modes of city life
i Perhaps the closest analogy to the holt
day influence Is to be found In the. restora-i
tive power of sleep, for lhere are many re-
semblances between The two processes.
Concerning. sleep much has been written In
vain. 1t has been described In terms of hui
man physiology. as though vegetables did
not also sleep. and wake. and sleep again:
and, for all we know to the contrary, there
may be nocturnal state, akin to sleep.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1902-10-23

through the whole inorganic world. And a
holiday, like sleep, Is a reyersioE, a period
zeal phase or instinct in man: there is a
sense OF going back to that passive state
which Is one Of the oldest and most con-
slant facts of our nature. 1t Is not the
mere absence of work, but the positive
satisfaction of existence without work. that
makes a holiday; it Is the exercise of the
aboriginal faculty for passive idleness.
which has not been exercised for year:
for the Faculties Of the holiday life are just
the difficulties of the working life
Other instincts, probably of later origin
urge us to use our holidays. not in idieness,
but In sightseeing, and we go climbing and
travelling and admiring far and wide. Even
still holds good, for the sightseeing is to
the fdleness a 8 dreams are to sleep. A
great deal of nonsense is talked about
dreams, and it would be we'll worth the
troupse the experimental psychologists
would make careful clinical study of
them. The tabulation of 10000 dreams
could scarcely fail to bring out some very
strange facts Of association. memory and
character. Anyhow, it is to be noted that
the faculties and senses which are most
awake when we are asleep-the exaltation
OF the emotions and the imagination. the
revival Of the past, the sense Of adventure
and Of wonderful have their counterpart
in the holiday life: and the very phrase
that we use to describe the utmost pleasure
Of sightseeing is that it Is like a dream.
For we are, In holiday time. such stuff as
ureans are mace or; We become tmag1na-
tive, we find the beauty of common things.
But It Is still a matter of instinct and a
return TO nature; for the natural man Is not
man as he may once have been, but man
as he is. So great part of us is inhibited
during the eleven months of the working
year; not only the faculty for idleness. but
also the free exercise of our bodies and our
enjoyment of art. our vagrant thoughts and
all casual and unbusinesslike habits. Then
comes the holiday. and these and the like
happy instincts stir and are set at liberty
like dreams in sleep.
Therefore. in the haIcyon weeks we ought
to take our rest and change as natural
phase Of our fves-hke men who give them
selves to sleep. perchance to dream. There
Is something in the idleness of a holiday
that Is not mere fatigue, and in its sight
seeing something that is not mere self
culture. -t
