To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
In Fridays issue of you paper Ade-
line Stanley Carrick speaking of the
way in which the children of the poor
are being brought up, says in part:
ut is high time that common-sense
rules of health and hygiene for babies
should be taught to all girls more than
IL years of age, both in the summer
and winter schools; the next generation
of babies would benefit wonderfully
thereby" In other words, Miss Car
rick paraphrases the proberb of the
wise Solomon: Bring up a child in
the way he should go and when he is
old he will not depart therefrom."
No sensible person will attempt to
argue the point brought out in these
sayings; yet thousands upon thousands
will get red in the face when someone
from the new school" says that en-
vironment determines the character and
the very life of a person.
We are all creatures of environment;
we do not shape our own destinies.
Therefore, when conditions are such
that the early life of a child Is of a
nature menacing his future life it is
truly high time for the community to
step in and by rules and regulations
make an effort to insure that future

ways of the stock market, If you car

me how it is that Great Britain gets

Does not this increase on imports

1t the fact that most likely we are

interest. 1t is understood that said

Since it was the medium of bringing
Newark into it's own as one of the
large cities of the country the census
of 1910 will be gratefully remembered.
There is every indication just now that
the census of 1910 will win an even
snugger place in our regard. On the
face of the returns Newark's rate of
increase in population during the past
ten years is third. being surpassed only
by Detroit and Kansas City. The
single disappointment in the returns is
furnished by Pittsburg, which failed to
show big league form in this metro
politan handicap. The opportunity for
phenomenal growth in a population
way in this city during the next ten
years is so excellent that it will be
difficult to wait that long to know the
result.

An Open Letter.
Mr.. Rafe Loake,
Monroe City St. Commissioner

N'ShiOC NlIy ~ C'H..-ilooi'iiIi
Dear Sir:
By unanimous vote oe orr club
we decided to appeal to you to help
in our efforts to make our town
more up-to-date and tidy looking.
We put in so much time discussing
ways and means, every now and
then we try to carry out some plan
for improvement but still our street,
highways and parks remain insight
ly beyond endurance. The streets
are filled with boxes, crates, straw
and rubbish of every description.
Screens are removed from doors
and stored for the winter on our
streets; old tables and furniture are
stored in our streets; ashes are
scattered in the highways or piled
in front of each building so that the
lady who dares walk abroad Oh a
windy day, looks as if she had just
escaped an eruption of Mt. Vesuvi-
us. Six cars would not hold the
waste paper that is scattered over
our streets and parks.
We have beautiful trees planted
by our ancestors, who, thank God,
had some pride, but they are being
ruined because we make hitching
posts of them, and our parks that
should be things of beauty, with
close cut grass, fountains, seats for
resting, etc, are turned into barn
lots and sheep pastures
We feel so sorry for our rustling
real estate dealers, when we see
them driving around in swell rigs
filed with land buyers, for we
know they are talking their very
best trying to explain how we mean
to clean up and beautify next
week" Months ago a committee
was appointed by our club to visit
the Council room and ask our City
Dads" to make it unlawful for
chickens to run at large and destroy
"other peoples" lawns, flowers, and
gardens Well, we went they
smiled their sweetest (there was
not a handsome man in the bunch)
they promised but did nothing. Our
club will cheerfully buy the tickets
| if those old fOgy Dads" will visit
some enterprising city and see how
they run things. We would insist
that they wear their glasses and
read the numerous signs, such as
DO not spit on the side walks, "
Put waste paper, banana peels,
ETC., in the receptacles provided for
them" Now please Mr., Leake
won't you help US? Please Mr.. Leake
assert your authority and when you
see anything wrong walk right up
to the offender and order it righted,
and we assure you thirty ladies will
smile on you and see that you get
any Office you want in the dear but
dirty little town of Monroe.
