Their effectiveness at night is wonderful and they are plainly legible in the day light But in addition to their effective ness as advertisers, they serve to illum- mate the streets at night and give life like appearance to the town.
 It has been said that our city has not enough trees. It is true that most or them have not had time to grow to a great size, and more of them should be planted. Too few of our population feel as did Ruskin, when he gave vent to the expression 70 what a thought that was when God thought of tree.'
 Of course the remarks about homes applies only to some of the residence dis tricts. In parts of the town the private residences present most beautiful ap- pearance, exceptionally beautiful. but If Is not the case all over the city. The thing to be done now is is to make the whole town beautiful-not just in sections and this can be done by individual ef- fort
 Every one can help in a realization of the idea, and they do not have to be elect ed to a public office; 1t can be done quiet ly and individually. One only has to hold that high position of private citizen to do his part of the work.

Serious Problems Confront Authorities
Ia Canal Zone.
New York, May 22.-Sanitation and
preservation Of health is the one great
problem which confronts the American
authorities In the Panama canal zone,
according to statement given out by
John Barrett, the American minister
to Panama, who arrived here during
the day on the steamer Advance from
Colon. He considers as alarming the
report of five cases of yellow fever at
Colon, alarming" he says. because
up to the time these cases were re-
ported no yellow fever had appeared
there and it was hoped that the situa-
tion was In hand"
Il do not believe in deceiving the
public in these matters" said Mr.. Bar
rett. 1T is far better that the truth
should be known Existing conditions
on the isthmus present many difficult
ties and while Ii is not case for pes
simism, 1t is not the engineering, 1t Is
not the administrative problem that is
confronting us. These are of second
airy consideration to the problem OF
health and sanitation. Here we have
engineering problems that have been
solved elsewhere and can be met, but
the sanitation problem is new and pre-
sents many difficulties"

MUST SEEK OTHER EMPLOYMENT
Not More Than One-third of the Strik
ers viii Be Reinstated.

Chicago. May 22.-Opinions vary as
to the number of strikers who will be
reinstated now that the teamsters'
strike is practically ended, but the
general belief is that 35 per cent is a
conservative figure. This estimate
comes largely from union sources. The
employers, maintaining that the EN-
ployers' Teaming company was a per-
manent institution, placed the percent
age of strikers who would get their
old places back at even lower figure.
The Employ ers' Teaming company will
employ no union men at all.
The total number of men on strike,
including 500 helpers, is 3,772. From
the most trustworthy estimates 1900
of these will get their places back in
the course of time. leaving 2.472 who
will have TO seek other employment.
During the day committees OF the
various local unions of teamsters Wis
tied the employers to make the best
terms possible regarding the rein
