HOW TO MAKE A GREAT CITY

An instance illustrating the nat
ural effect of the recent abolition
of taxes on improvements in Van
cover, British Columbia, is vouched
for as absolutely true by the Ever
EFT Washington Tribune Of April
81. 1t seems we'll worth retelling
just as the Everett Tribune has
told it:
"An Everett citizen who owns
lots on Hewitt avenue had in
tended to improve his property by
the erection of brick building;
but he has changed his mind and
gives the following reason for 80
doing:
II own business lots in VaIcou-
yer, B. c., and received the follow
ing response to an inquiry which
| made:
Vancouver, B. c., April 20, 10
Dear Sir Replying to your
favor of the 18th inst. we beg to
say that your information is cor
rect. There is no tax on building
or personal property in this city.
Total tax for 1909 was % mills.
Yours truly, ALLAN Bros, 500
Fender Street.
"The above information de-
cided the matter for me. The
building l had planned for Hewitt
avenue will be erected in Vancou-
yer, B. c., where improvements
are exempt from taxation. In that
city l will be compelled to pay no
more nor less than the man who
holds idle lots on either side of
me. l would rather have built in
Everett, but didn't like the pros
pect of paying an annual fine on
the cost of my investment. So l
am adapting myself to our system,
which makes it more profitable to
hold land idle and escape taxation
than to use it. Some one has said
that our system of taxation en-
ables land owners to sleep and
thrive l propose to build in
Vancouver and sleep in Everett"

ELECTION IN ST. PAUL

The election of Herbert P. Kel-
Ter as mayor of st. Paul, is to my
mind, all things considered, the
most remarkable victory for good
municipal government for a long
time. Keller is labeled republi-
can, but is in fact real democrat,
capable and progressive.
To win an election in St. Paul
against the local machine was
seemingly hopeless undertaking,
for st. Paul is one of the worst
boss ridden cities in the United
States. The machine was, as is
the usual rule, n complete alliance,
offensive and defensive, between
the public service corporations
and all forms of vice under the per-
sonal direction of as resourceful
and competent manager as exists
in any city anywhere. Yet the
people won by more than 5000
majority.
That the people have good judg-
ment, when interested and alert,
is shown by the fact that they
have not elected all the ticket lab
eled republican.
This victory in st. Paul should
give us all new courage and deter
mination. If st. Paul can be
cleaned up no city is hopeless, not
even Philadelphia. st. Paul will
now try for the commission form
of government, and will l am con-
fident succeed.

MONEY IN EGGS

Fifty car loads of eggs were
taken in single month from cold
storage plants in the east and
brought to Denver. Poultry is
shipped direct from Omaha to
Glenwood Springs and other noun
tain towns. Even in mountain
towns as distant as Telluride, poul-
try and eggs are shipped direct
from Wichita, Kansas. In July,
1909, the hotels in Durango were
obliged to furnish their guests
Kansas eggs because Colorado
eggs could not be secured.
During the past fall and white,
an average of 81 600 per week has
been sent out of Fort Collins for
Kansas and Nebraska eggs, and
most towns in Colorado have sent
out proportionate amounts. One
bank in Denver reports that its
customers, alone, send an average
of $4,000 a week to Nebraska for
poultry.
Colorado needs, at the present
time, at least 5000 men who are
experts in egg production, and
these men can make much more
than they are making in eastern
states.

THE COLD WAVE

Professor Of Fresh Air

Lieutenant ]. p. Muller, author Of the
Fresh Air Book" has been pronounced
by Carl Bloch, the painter, to be phys
ically the most perfect man he has ever
seen. Muller entered the University OF
Copenhagen at seventeen to study the
ology, but later abandoned this pursuit
and devoted himself to engineering, be-
coming a lieutenant In the engineering
corps of the army. His growing repu-
tation as an athlete as well as his
knowledge Of hygiene gained for him
the appointment of inspector of Vejle-
ford sanitarium for consumptives, and
since then he has devoted himself en-
tirely TO physical culture He has won
1872 prizes, 12S of which are champion
ships in every department Of athletics.
Lieutenant Muller is Dane, and thou
sands of people In Europe. where he is
recognized as an authority, are prac-
ticing the theories explained IN his
book.

port of the occasion, we find that in
recent years there has been a most ap-
preciable shifting of the Easter idea,
so that now the season has become a
sort Of second Christmas. You may
observe the signs everywhere,

viii, how different is the Easter egg
OF today from that of half a century
ago. Nobody can accuse the Easter
egg of any staleness. It is strictly
fresh and up to date. and it needs no
pencil mark. Laid March q, 1870" TO
guarantee its quality. The newness of
the average Easter egg is refreshing.

Easter eggs are of windowless shell,

Christmas is associated with snow
and the blazing backlog, Easter with
the lilies and the sunshiny outdoors.
Is 1t not a salutary sign that Easter
is becoming more and more a counter
part and complement Of Christmas?
There is room in the calendar for two
universal joy days-one in winter. one
in spring. Christmas is altogether a
product of the Christian era, but
Easter is In part a development and an
outgrowth of the pagan JOY at the re-
turn of spring, the reelothing Of bare
branches, the bursting of the buds. the
release of the rivers from their icy
letters, the resurrection Of the material
world.

wind him up and send him scooting

Easter House Parties Popular.
But it is not only the toys that sug-
gest a growing intimacy between
Christmas and Easter. In many COM
munities the Easter week end party has
become almost as much Of an institu-
ton as the Christmas home gathering.
The difference is that people go home
for Christmas and away from home for
Easter. Atlantic City, for instance. is
place where throngs gather every
Easter from the cities and towns in
easy travelling distance to spend the
day promenading on the ocean espla-
made and enjoying special feasts at the
hotels and cafes When Easter falls
late enough for spring to be fairly well
advanced many city persons who own
homes in the country have their rural
retreats opened up and entertain house
parties over the Easter season.

tide rejoicing. In sections where

Easter bonnet and the Easter gown

The Secular Celebration of Easter

AS it occurred TO you that in
recent years Easter observ-
ance is becoming more and
y "A more a matter Of secular
celebration? While it is not to be dis
puted that the churches throughout
Christendom, Catholic and Protestant,
conformist and noncoDformist, ortho-
dox and advanced" continue to OBJ
serve Easter as heretofore and even
with an increasingly elaborate feast Of
flower and song and praise worship,
yet the signs Of the times indicate that
Eastertide is becoming, like Yuletide. a
season Of universal popularity in
Christian countries. without regard to
religious belief
Christmas throughout Christendom
has been for many years holiday Of
universal acceptance. The Christmas
spirit appeals to Hebrews as to Chris
tians TO nonbelievers as to the devout
Everybody who is not sunken in sordid
misanthropy celebrates Christmas. It
is the season Of good cheer, accepted
and approved without regard TO its
origin. The Easter season has become
a twin time to Christmas in the es-
sential element-good cheer, Joy, opti-
nlism. The one celebrates the birth Of
Christ, the other the resurrection Of
Christ.
We may saw that Christmas is a
time Of mutual good fellowship. while
Easter is a time of rejoicing more in
eividual and personal At Christmas
we rejoice with those We love. At
Easter the individual soul rejoiees
within itself, the sacred conception of
the event being that it offers oppor-
sunity for the expression of JOY In the
resurrection. in the hope for immor-
tally. for ''the going on and on. and
