PROUD OF ITS ROADS.
Mississippi Towns Method of Keep
ing TrOIIeyS on HIGHWAYS

We vii. walk rather than haze troll
ley tracks III our she'll roads" was the
decision Oh a town meeting hcl,ia short
time ago at Pass Christian. Ms s1gS
the Ne" YORK Times. And President
Jones of the Gulf and ship Island Rail
road company had f. promise t. lay
tile tracks Of his roads npT trolley
feeder on Il right of way The shell
roddS of MiSSiSSippi'S coast have i.een
famous for eighty years. Shaded by
lines of beautiful live oaks they wind

southern mansion. now Il glimpse of
the blue gulf. Locally they are said to
be the best in the country. The many
winter visitors from the north, mindful
of Jersey and WeStchestcr boys, sell
dom dispute this claim.
The Gulf and Ship Island Railroad
company, which controls transportation
i'll southern Mississippi, is building a
trolley line for thirty miles along the
coast as n feeder. Pass Christian peo-
pie have determined that the trolley
must keep off their roads Other peo-
pies roads did not matter, but the
shell roads must be sacred to the horse
and, under protest, the automobile.
As the rails came nearer the interest
grew until the town had not so been
stirred since the war. and town meet
Ing resulted. Captain Jones, president
of the Gulf and Ship Island railroad, is
New Englandcr. In his native sec
ton the town meeting has lost its old
time Importance. He discovered. how
ever, that in Mississippi it is still the
chief way of tranSactinS public bust
ness. The sense of the meeting was
that while trolley roads can be built
anywhere. she'll roads can be built in
few other localities than the Nississip-
pi coast. Other places have not the
necessary shells. Pass Christian peO-
pie would rather walk and send their
freight by wagon than have their roads
dug up for rails and the live oak
branches cut off to make room for
wires
Captain Jones promised that no pro
flaming pick should touch the beloved
shells, but that the line would be built
as near the highway as possible

There is Il movement on foot in many
German cities to stimulate interest III
such decoration Of houses Prizes are
given for the finest effects obtained
with flowers so displayed and much is
expected in the way of frightening and
adjoining streets. Even in American
cities. where trees shrubbery and flow
ers are common in full view of the
street in residence districts, much
might be done to make business thor
oughfareS more attractive by the use
of flowers in windows, says the Cleye-
Land Leader. There are some striking
object lessons of that kind in Toronto,
Ont. 1t is in no sense inconsistent
with the highest degree of business abil-
ity to take 4 deep interest in flowers
and the Identifying of cities. Japan
has taught the world what a nation de-
voted to art and natures beauties can
do in the hardest tests of strength, forti-
Jude and courage.

WOMEN STREET CLEANERS.
4 Sp"tIeSs Town In Munich swept by
Fair Sex.

y mild sensation is caused from time
to time when the newspapers announce
that the club women of some Ameri-
can town, tired of living on filthy
streets, have undertaken to give the
municipal authorities an object lesson
i'll the art of street cleaning. But the
streets of Munich, that famous old Bal
varian art, musical, dramatic and edlI-
catiOnal center, are cleaned year in and
year out solely by women, and no one
wonders at it except the newly arrived
foreign student or tourist, says Ernest
Sauer
The street cleaners of Munich have
been women for so long that if some
one We're 10 ask the worthy burgomas-
ter when they first began TO sweep the
thorOughfares of the city he undOubt-
eddy would first have to consult the
municipal records in order to give an
unimpeachable answer. But if he were
to be asked, is it not strange to have
women engaged in such work." his re-
ply in all probability would be what
the reply of many burgher of Munich
HAS bftll " tIllS very question:
is it not honest work and do not all
men and all women have to work in
order that they may live?"
In land where it is not considered
the style for women to do as little
physical labor as possible, where the
woman working in the field is met
with constantly, where she frequently
takes the place of the beast of burden,
no one thinks it extraordinary that wo-
men should clean the streets of Mu-
Mich. 1t is work, it is honest work, the
women like to do the work, 50 it is
we'll And there you are.
AstOnished as the average American
pilgrim to this ancient seat of learning
is at his first sight of skirted street
SweeperS, his wonder soon gives way
to a feeling of admiration for the work
that the women do. For MunichS
streets are among the cleaneSt in the
world without doubt. 1t is a city Of
over half Il million inhabitants, yet
walk where you will. you will not come
across even Il side street that is not
worthy of comparison with the tradi-
tiOnal neatneSS of the new pin.
