BIG IMPROVEMENT IN
THE POTRERO DISTRICT
Reclamation of Five Blocks ir
IsIais Creek Channels

At the meeting of the San Bruno
Avenue Improvement club last Friday
evening the following resolution, which
is self explanatory, was adopted:
Resolved, that the San Bruno Avenue
Improvement club heartily commends
the policy of HIS honor the mayor and
the honorable board of supervisors in
permitting the reclamation of five
blocks of submerged lands on the
southerly line of Islais creek channel

dustries
James x. Taylor. vice president OF
the club, in offering the resolution
said:
The board of supervisors may take to
its credit the inauguration of the great
est work that has been undertaken in
the Potrero in the last % years. Acres
of mud flats have lain waste land for
years, and now it is purposed to utilize
them for manufacturing sites. for
which they are the most available lands
anywhere on the shore line of the bay
Vice President Taylor spoke of other
work that is being done in the vicinity
of Islais creek, including the filing in
of four blocks of land west of Ken

CLUB HEARS PLEA
FOR CONVICT FARM
William |. Day of Prison Conn
mission Proposes to Reform
Criminals

William I. Day, superintendent OF
the California prison commission, ad-
dressed the Commonwealth club at its
regular weekly luncheon in the st.
Francis hotel yesterday on "A State
Industrial Farm as Means of Re
claiming Criminals
Day advocated the setting apart of
state lands as an adjunct to the peni-
tentiaries. He pointed out that many
men serving prison terms for VIOLA
tions of the law could be employed in
tilling the soil away from prison walls
as a reward for good behavior. He
brought to the attention of his hearers
the fact that such a farm would be
made disappearing.
Many .convictS, he said, have no place
to go when released. Some were
sickly and unable to work, while 9TH
ers had no friends and no one would
employ them because of their previous
reputation. He showed that these men
could be allowed to go to the farm
and earn an honest living there until
assured of employment, instead of
falling in with the gangs of criminals
in cities and being returned again to
the prison.
About so members attended the
luncheon. President W.. B. Webster
announced that William r. Wheeler
would address the club next Saturday
on the Needs of San Francisco From
a Commercial Standpoint"

SAGE FOR DARKENING THE
HAIR.

There is nothing new about the idea Of
using sage for restoring the color of the
hair. Our great-grandmothers kept their
locks soft, dark and glossy by using a
sage tea" Whenever their hair fell out
or took on a dull, faded or streaked APP
pearance. they made a brew of sage
leaves and applied it to their hair with
wonderfully beneficial effect. Nowadays
we don't have to resort to the old-time,
tiresome method of gathering the herbs
and making the brew. This is done by
skillful chemists better than we could do
it ourselves, and all we. have to do is to
call for the ready made product. Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, containing sage in the
proper, strength, with the addition OF
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy.

COLISEUM MANAGEMENT
SHES AT FLOORING COST

The management of the new Coli
scum building at Oak and Baker
streets has clashed with Chief Inspec-
tor Morgan of the city's board of works
Construction is again proceeding on
the great wooden frame, but no floor
ing is to be. laid until Horgan's de-
mand that the building be rat proofed'
by a concrete layer underneath the
whole structure be satisfied.
Horgan stopped the work last week
but later let it proceed on this under
standing.
The Coliseum people hope to con-
vince the federal health authorities
that to concrete the whole basement
floor is an unnecessary expense, and
they have suggested a border instead
and other substitutes, but Horgan says
the law is explicit and must be met.

THE college graduate with his
loud clothing and naughty airs may
be seeing his best days. His sister
with diploma and ideas that
mother never dreamed also seems
destined to subside. Not much
longer will they continue to return
to their native village to lord it
over the rest of the household and
the neighbors, provided parents
follow the example of an Illinois
father. He graduated in the same
class with his son last month. He
has the right system. There is no
hoping that parents will be able to
remain at home and still keep UP
with the young folks who are away
at school. It is immateria1 that
father and mother may have been
seniors themselves once; that was a
long time ago and things are
different now. They must expect
to admit that they are out of date
with their generation-ago notions.
1t father would not have son
assume patronizing airs he must
know it is up to him to get a new
diploma. smoke cigarettes and play
golf. And then, if he would be a
thoroughbred, he and son can go
back to college with grandson and
acquire another installment of the
latest in educational and sartoria1
effects. Pioneer Press.

Postal Banks

AS passed by congress, the post
Office savings measure will benefit
not only the public generally, but
the local savings and other banks
as well. AS the state and national
banks pay and 81 percent on
saving deposits, while the postal
banks will pay only 2 percent, pat
rons of the former will not with
draw their funds to deposit them
in postal banks at much lower in
terest rates. Patrons of postal
banks in towns where state or nat
ional banks offer saving facilities,
will be limited wholly to that class
of depositors, chiefly immigrants,
who have little or no confidence in
any banks not guaranteed by the
national government people that
now unwisely hoard their sayings
in their bones, where they are not
infrequently lost through theft,
robbery, fire or other mishap.
These moneys will now find their
way, first into the postal banks;
and then by virture of the law, the
great proportion of them into the
regular local banks, which will pay
thereon to the government 2A per-
cent interest-materially less than
is paid on regular savings deposits,
increasing by the amount of these
deposits the funds available for
commercial loans.
But not only in this way will the
postal savings system confer bene-
fits in towns that already have
banking facilities. It will educate
the stocking" depositors into the
banking naD1t, ana having acqu1r-
ed it through the postal bank, it
will not be long before most of
them will transfer funds to.the reg
ular banks in order to get the in
creased interest rate on their saw
ings. The fact that the govern
ment redeposits the great proper
ton of the postal savings funds in
the regular local banks cannot fail
to give doubters confidence in
them.
There is however vast field
including the rural districts and the
smaller villages and hamlets-that
is wholly without savings bank fac

Who Are Your Friends

With whom you associate is an
important matter. A man is judg-
ed by the company he keeps. If a
man chooses the companionship of
the frivilious or vicious he will be-
come like them, however innocent
he may have been when joining
their circle. If he is really not
much given to evil habits, his
choosing such associates shows that
the evil is in his heart only waiting
an occasion to be brought out. It
may be that there is some good in
fluence still reaching out to keep
him from actually committing the
same deeds that his associates do.
But even if he does not commit
himself to his associates course of
conduct his strength of character is
weakened. He loses his self
respect and lowers himself in the
estimation of others. You may
keep yourself safe from fire but not
from the consequences of evil COM
panionship.
Choose as associates those whom
you think are your equals, or, bet
ter still, those whom you think
your superiors. You will then be
improving in mind and character.
The Arabians have saying: "A
dog travelling with a wise man be-
comes national being" One is
likely, quite unconsciously, to be-
come like those by whom he is sur,
rounded. Observe what your com
panions are and you will see your
self reflected in them.
If you would keep your self-res
pect, choose for associates only
such as you can look up to and re
spect. It is far better to be quite
alone than in bad company
Never be satisfied with anything
but the best.
The building up of character the
growing in wisdom, the learning t.
live rightly, is the true aim in life
It is of far more than the boarding
of dollars. It is not the wealth
you possess but what you are tina
counts. Choosing the best O
associates is a great aid on the up
ward path.

THE difference between local
and county option is just the differ
ence between day and night. The
local option law is now on the
statutes, giving any town in the
state the power to vote on the
question of license providing it is
put up to the voters. County
option gives Duluth the chance to
vote saloons out of Ely or Ely the
chance to vote saloons out of Du-
luth, or any other place in the
county. 1t is a paramount ques-
ton: What has Duluth, Virginia,

together and regulate their own

SOME one in Chicago has propos-
ed that the police take the DRINKS
to their homes instead of to Jail and
the question is being discussed
pro and con. An exchange has
figured it out this way:
The city gets cash from the
saloons for licenses to sell drunk
material to patrons, who in turn
pay for the material to get drunk
with. Their money goes through
the saloon to the city, and is paid
over to the police. So, practically,
the drunk" is paying the police
man, and has right to demand
service from him. Can anything
be more logical? This system
would be rough on the homes, but
the drunk" is bound to get there
eventually, anyway, so why go to
the trouble and expense of the
lookup.
