Tacoma. Wash, October-"You'n like
Tacoma" is the motto OF this place
and you will after you have seen 1T,
for on the whole it is very pretty
seaport town of about 100000 people,
but on first sight you are far from
falling in love with Tacoma And it is
all because Of the unkempt appearance
of the town down around the station
Contrast this city Of 100000 with
Billings, Mont, Of $4,000, and you get
the idea of the real value of beautify-
ing a city so as to make a good i'm
pressfon on visitors. Billings has paved
streets. beautifully lighted, running
down to its new, modern union station,
and the impression on tourist is at
once the best This is a live town,
the passengers say, whether II is

the train changes engines or a stop

worst holes you ever saw Even go

much better-you have to stay in Ia
coma awhile and ride about among its
beautiful homes with their flower gar
dens. vines and pine trees; visit its
parks, schools and pleasure resorts

course of construction, and, instead OF
having to make a circuitous trip through
such a very poor section Of the city, an

been the condition in the past and Ia

station. clean and well kept, well

some street lights, much better than
the majority of towns, but there is
room for more. By all means we
should have the gooseneck lights all
the way up the, street to Pioneer
plaza, or even he cluster lights, for
they are far ahead OF the goosenecks
and cost but little more, and above all.
we should run our street cars straight
up San Francisco street instead Of
winding them around through the
adobe neighborhood, where they now
run. So much depends upon a visitors

pearance of Seattle and Tacoma The
former looks new, the latter old.
Alaska made the new Seattle. Both
towns were old shipping points, but
the discovery of gold in the far north
made Seattle grow. Tacoma did not
get so much of this wealth and is still
the old town it was. Moss covered
roofs and mildew covered rooming
houses sandwiched in between the bus
mess houses are common here. In
Seattle they are on the back streets.
Many new business houses are under
construction here-one is II stories
but the town is not growing like Sc
attic and it does not look as new.
Seattle has a wealth of first class
hotels while Tacoma has. only about
two. One of these has a big Alaskan
totem pole in front of it, that attracts
great attention, but many Of these
weirdly carved poles are seen on this
coast, brought down from Alaska,
where they are used 10 designate the
rank of chiefs. In the museum in the
parliament building at Victoria, B. c.,
is large collection of these curious
hieroglyphic- recovered poles.a

people make money off the tourists
who go 20 see it as make a living in
Egypt selling genuine scarabs" made
to order. The season is not on now,
so the Tacoma people have to get what
satisfaction they may in telling you
what a delightful excursion you are
missing.
The residences up here are ali
unique-mostly on the mission and
bungalow order, and 'clinker" brick
are used 70 good effect in founda-
lions and chimneys. These are the
twisted and gnarled brick that are next
the fire in the kiln. They are used so
extensively that the supply is always
exhausted. It's like peeling apples to
give the small boy the peel-a hard
job to keep enough on hand. But the
"clinker" brick make a most artistic
decoration and would work in well on
some of the new type of residences
now building in FL Paso.

this trip who have spoken of the favor
able impression they received of e
Paso either on San Antonio or FL Paso
street or from the union station and
no less than five people, have kept
account-have asked why we ran the
cars around through such a poor sec
ton, taking visitors uptown and then
always brought them back down a
well paved. street. One often has to
go away from home to learn of the
things at home that need attention and
I recommend that every Ell Pasoan
who goes away after this, take pains
to find out what travellers think of a
town at first sight and how that first
sight even fingers with them always,
regardless of what they may see after
wards in city.
Great shipping Center.
Tacoma is a great shipping center
and, besides big railroad terminals, is
the docking place, like her sister city
of Seattle, for boats from China, Japan,
Hawaii Alaska and many other places.
II has big trade and a big dinner
bucket brigade, for the wharves, rail-
road shops, factories, particularly lum-
Der mills, and other industries employ
large armies OF men.
The Great School Stadium.
The high school here is the most
notable in America, since it has a
stadium, built alongside, on the water
front, against a hill, that cost $780,
600 and seats 10000 people The
stadium was erected by private sub
scription, started by high school grad
yates and is one of the show places of
the Pacific. From it while a baseball
game or football or polo match is in
had and sailboats, steamers. tramp
ships, yachts and fishing craft may
be watched out in the offing. To con-
struct this great arena, $4,000 cubic
yards of earth were removed. 1t is 400
feet long, ESQ feet wide at its narrow
est point and $50 at its widest 1t re-
Quired $500 cubic yards of cement and
14S TONS of reinforcing steel to build
the seats. The high school building,
with its flower gardens and beautiful
walks, cost 100000
Parks.
Point Defiance 40 minutes ride from
the heart of Tacoma, is wild in it's
natural growth of pines, oaks, ferns
and flowers. No attempt has been
made to interfere with the perfection
of nature. Trails have been cut in the
underground and rustic bridges have
been built over chasms and cataracts;
along the sea, which washes the park
on all sides save a neck of land that
connects 1t with the city proper, runs
a trail cut in the side of the bluff
above the waves lashing themselves
into foam at the base against the
rocks. Along the beaches-for all the
park waterfront is not bluff-the
visitors may dig CLANS, and back in
the woods they gather sticks and bake
the clans on fires. The park is owned
by the United States government and
viii eventually become a fort, but the
city park board has the supervision of
it and keeps it up. Cameras are not
barred as they are at Bremerton navy

yard and the real forts along the coast
and the tourist who fails to bring his
snapshot machine along will regret it,
Tacoma has many beautiful parks
parks like the ordinary city parks
parks that look parky and made,
some with statuary in them, but this
beautiful sea-washed, wooded point ex-
cites the admiration of more people
than all the others combined, because
1t is left like nature created it.
The Residence Section.
Like Seattle, Tacoma is on hillside
and many of the homes are built like
they are in Bisbee, though the hill
sides are not so steep as in Bisbee
Cable cars in both these cities lift the
passengers to the hilltops across town
while Stone Webster electric cars with
trademarks on them like Ell Paso
handle the rest OF the traffic. These
electrics operate between Seattle and
Tacoma and the fare is IS cents Boats
also make the round trip about four
times a day and the fare is 35 cents one
way or so cents for the round trip
no extra charge for catching fish, if
you can catch any.
Noisy Paving
Both Seattle and Tacoma are noisy
The crosstown cable cars add their
SNARE 10 Tie racket, the real noise
comes from the paving, most of which
is vitrified brick or cobblestone Ell
Paso certainly can be thankful that
Bill Fewel and the other city dads
selected something else than vitrified
brick for street pavements. The noise
is almost maddening.
Federal Buildings
Both Seattle and Tacoma have new
federal buildings and they are of the
big, low variety-like Ell Peso'S new
postoffice is going to be. The day OF
the tall building with the fancy tow er
as government structure IS pas
Room is now the idea and all the new
federal buildings are big and flat
Seattle and Spokane have big, wide
three story federal buildings. and Ia
coma has a two-story building of the
same character The three are built of
gray sandstone and each covers half a
block-there is nothing fancy about
them; they are just roomy and plain
and they are beautiful in their mas

The sense of humor is the Saving
sense" principally because it saves US
from ourselves. The person who can
not laugh at himself now and then is
TO be pitied. Moreover, the person
who cannot take good naturally the
occasional bantering of others is in
the same class of disagreeables. A
well directed shaft of raillery will
often find the vulnerable point in our
armor of self complacency and show
us where our self satisfaction is all
wrong. True humOr, however, must
spring as much from the heart as from
the head. Its essence must be truth
and friendliness. not contempt There
never was 4 good joke yet that told a
lie or besmirched IL reputation. Humor
which carries with it sting to wound
the sensitiveness or deIicacy of one
