GENTLY rendered, Collector of the Port
Stranahan ought to get a large and
highly ornate one. At the time when
he took the office, a home coming from
Europe was a thing to look forward
to with horror. 1t meant hours of de-
lay on the pier, a method of going
through your baggage that was just
one degree less destructive than blow
ing it up with dynamite. When Col.
Stranahan took hold he decided that
a trip to Europe doesn't deprive an
American citizen of all rights. He sent
out notices to the officials that while
there must be thorough precautions
against smuggling, the travelling public
be considered, that trunks must be ex-
amined as speedily a possible and with
as little upsetting as possible. and that
courtesy MUST be the unvarying rule.
The inspectors grnned: they had heard

Q dozen of the worst offenders were
called up and talked to in a way that
made their hair bristle. Since then
there has been a startling change on
the piers. The baggage is handled
twice as quickly as formerly; the in
spectors are considerate and polite and
the establishment of the experienced
globe trotters is almost ludicrous. The
evil of "wiping" has not been wiped
out. but by his method of posting no.
tees telling passengers exactly what
to declare and what comes in free, the
collector has not only encouraged hon

bribery. Last week I heard one wo-

some little things that 1 could have
slipped in, but when I read the notice
I felt 1 was put on my honor and I
didn't have the heart not to declare
them" Thus far the change of pol
icy has worked admirably for the pub

Nowadays, it is necessary only to men
ton a we'll known authors name to
have his native state come to mind

rather, is natural product of it..
Strange as it may seem, New York
is far behind several other states in
the number of famous writers who
claim it for their birthplace and this is
not because native New Workers are
ashamed of their nativity. So far as
New York is concerned, it is doubtful

Then the Multi Millionaire inaugu-

to set aside three days in every Week
