park lands for the city. We now have
22O acres reserved for park purposes,
and expect to secure more. Then
there is the boulevard plan on which
we are working. 1t Is the plan to
have system of bouleyards surround
ing the city, all united SO as to make
a beautiful drive. We employed a
professional landscape gardener of
Boston to lay out the plan and are
working with definite purpose in
view. Automobile owners are CO.
operating with US to provide such a
system of bouleyardS. 1t is no trouble
to get money from them when they
know 1t is to be used directly for
building up fine drives and that it is
not going for graft.
1.-The club has various committees
that look after the different depart
mentS of the work. For instance,
there is one committee whose bust
ness it is to look after the appearance
of the city. 1t cleans up unsightly
places and drops suggestions to
citizens who are now keeping up their
residence property to the civic stand
ard. Pride is great thing, and
everyone wants his place to look as
well as bis neighbours. Spokane is a
beautiful city; we have some resi-
deDces as fine as are to be found in
New York City, and the lawns and
grounds are kept up in beautiful con-
dition. Spokane uses more water
per capita than any other city / know
of.
cooperating with this general
committee from each of the thirty
seven wards. These ward committees
work for the beautifying and improv-
ing Of their particular wards, and
there is considerable rivalry among
them. Each ward committee has one
or two representatives in the general
committee, and in that body the
whole city is considered.
''The club has just recently estab-
lished the first public playground for
children. There are numerous play
grounds in the outlying districts, so
the need for public place is not
greatly apparent, but this one has
been established in one of the most
thickly settled districts as an expert
ment. 1t was provided with appara-
tus at cost of about $780, 1t gives
promise of being quite a success. !"

enc Weighing less than eighty pounds.
The reason he gives is that as the
road bed is not perfectly rigid there is
a slight yielding Of a light rail as a
heavy wheel rests upon It, where a
rail unable to yield, would snap uader
the weight
From what others have said on this
subject, the question whether a rail
would break or bend undera weight Il
not properly supported would seem t
depend partly on the amount Of ca
bon in the rail. II there is enoug
carbon to make the steel nighlY
brittle, the lighter the rail the sooner
it will snap. II there is little carbon
the ran will not wear so well. It vii
bend under weight and the tracks
will soon be uneven and dangerous to
fast trains. The railroad managers
will have officially IN persuadtng the
the public that a rail adequate for the
light, slow tralvel Of the past is sufi.
Gent for the heavy fast trains Of the
present. Wherever the danger is 10
breaking, the public will believe that
size makes for strength, unless the
contrary is proved by irreiragible
evidence.

manner He is still an enigma. One

the belief that the weight Of the
rail- has little to do with 1t. Or,

pounds is more likely to break than
