Invested in Amusement Parks.

The estimated Investment in sum.
mer amusement parks in this country
will reach total OF s10O.O0O,O00 this
year, we are told by The Railway and
Engineering Review. Says this paper;
"The total number OF parks Is esti-
mated at 1000. and three-fourths OF
that number are controlled by and OPP
Grated for electric railway lines. This
figure for the investment seems high,
and the more so when Il Is known that
the many small resorts, gardens,
groves. etc. found in every locality
are not included. II is probable. how
ever. that the figure may be accepted
as representative. though II will corre-
sponi more nearly to the advertised
cost OF each specific resort rather than
the actual cost, the two sums FREE
quently being quite different. AT any
rate the investment will reach an as
tonishing total, and Il calls attention
10 an interesting development in trans
portation."

A year ago Chicago woman
brought suit against a surgeon who
operated on her for tumor and then
sewed up pair OF forceps in her
body. This was regarded as something
fearful but other surgeons remarked
cheerily that 1T often happened.
Now comes a report from Webster
City. Ia, OF a woman who was OPP
Grated on for appendicitis and in
whose body the surgeon sewed up
napkin. Perhaps we may yet hear OF
one who sewed up In his patient a
door mat or a typewriter. These incl
dents may go far TO make surgical
operations" questionable.
