WORK OF IMPROVEMENT
CLUBS SINCE THE FIRE
How They Are Striving For the
Welfare and Progress of the
New San Francisco
By c. F. ADAMS

Few people realize what an impor-
tant part in the progress of the city
since the fire has been played by the
Improvement associations and the work
that is now being done by them.
The history of San Francisco in re-
cent years and in the future will be
found to be to very large extent the
history of its improvement clubs.
1t is to be hoped that a weekly re-
view of what these associations are
doing will prove interesting reading
and will at the same time be an in
centive to greater efficiency upon the
part of these clubs.
1t might be we'll at this time TO ex-
plain what these clubs are and to show
what a factor they are or can be in
the growth and development OF the
city. 1t is said that many OF them
exist in name only; that they are con-
trolled by the corporations; that they
are organized for political purposes.
So far as there is any justification in
remedy is not in destroying that
which. If permitted to grow, might
blossom forth into good fruit, but by
destroying its impediments to growth
the parasites that cucumber it. Or if
this can not be done by knowing what
is what, so that each being labeled
we may know how to choose.
Corporations and politics may be all

right in their own respective spheres
but they have no place in an improve
ment club. An Improvement club. TO
be worthy of the name. should consist
of the free and untrammeIed property
owners. businessmen and residents OF

OF securing for their district and for
the city as whole improvements.
such as streets. sewers. sidewalks.
lights, water. rapid transit, police.
health and fire protection. which are
necessary for the proper enjoyment OF
life and property.
To this class belong the great ma
jority of the Improvement clubs of San
Francisco. In the great process of af-
iliation' that has been going on lately
the clubs belonging to the other class
are being discovered and inferred.
If improvement clubs could be or
ganized in every section of the city
for the purposes enumerated above.
and If they would cooperate for the
of San Francisco, what a tremendous
and irresistible force would be ex-
erted for the upbuildinS OF our city!
Consider IL that Is not the condition
that Is crystallizing in San Francisco
now. Watch the improvement clubs.
See if these general conventions do not
accomplish something of value to our
city during the next two or three years.

by Forty-two Students

A committee composed OF ID. s..
O'Brien, L. S. Coburn and W. S. O'Don-
nell of the Sunset district club, waited
upon the board of education with a pc
tition signed by AZ prospective students.
| The board agreed to start a night class
| in the Laguna Honda school immedi-
ately.
The lighting committee of the club
reported that the requested arc lights
would be installed at an early date.
The India basin act was thoroughly
discussed at the meeting of the Eureka
valley improvement association Thurs
day evening. F. J. Churchill and David
Alberger of the Mission promotion as
ISOLATION defended the India basin act
and commended for an inland harbor that
would make more adequate our har-
Dor facilities. D. Davis of the Devisa-
ldero street improvement association and
Taylor of the Bay View Improvement
| club opposed the India basin act and
urged the reclamation of this terri
tory to make more adequate the avail
| able factory sites. Each side had maps
to illustrate their arguments. The
debate was pointed and spirited.
Through the efforts of the San Bruno
avenue Improvement club the residents
in Somerset and Woolsey streets have
purchased $4,000 worth of, sewer bonds,
thus insuring the extension of the sewer
system to their property This sewer
system is now being put down in the
district at a cost of $163,000 to the city
Extensive grading work is being done
in the Paul tract, where it is greatly
needed. The telephone company is now
busily engaged in stretching a second
large cable through the district
San Bruno avenue has been widened
five feet by the reduction of the side
walk area. This Improvement has been
brought about through the efforts of
the club. The paving of this street
south of Army street will soon be com
| rffenced, as the club has obtained the
money necessary to. do the work
The property owners and residents in
the vicinity of Turk and Pierce streets
/ have recently formed an Improvement
club and have commenced an agita-
ton to have Turk street extended
through the cemetery to the ocean. Eff
forts are also being made to have ad-
ditional lights installed throughout the
district.

has organized a volunteer fire brigade

convention will be called together te
act upon it. Then will be given to
the press and the public the results OF
the committees long labors. The pro-
posed report is generally regarded by
the members as happy solution OF
the problem. Just what it is can not
he stated now, but it is pretty sure to
prove immensely popular.
II might not be amiss to say few
words here as to what the construc-
ton of the tunnel means to San Fran
cisco.
GROWTH WESTWARD HALTED
San Francisco has grown westward
until 1t can expand no farther. It's
growth is stopped by the Twin peaks.
Beyond lie gently sloping lands look
ing out upon the Pacific, fanked by
the Sutro forest and Lake MERGED, and
guarded by the Twin peaks, compris
ing one-fourth of the area of San
Francisco capable of maintaining a
population of 100000 people. but yet
unimproved, unpopulated and inacces-
sible; distant from the heart of the
city SO minutes in a roundabout way.
Here are afforded home sites suitable
for our most fastidious commuter.
One hundred and five thousand peo-
pie every day, who are employed in
San Francisco. find their homes else
where.
WILL INDUCE COMMUTERS
Why? Because they can get to their
homes in comfort in 40 minutes, they
have back yards and front lawns, i'm
proved streets and beauty. They can
buy their homes cheaply, and upon the
installment plan These people can
not be coerced into returning to San
Francisco and it is not fair to coerce
them. Give them these same ad-
vanta ges within 20 minutes comfort
able ride from their work and they
or others like them will come here.
Construct the. Twin Peaks tunnel
and this land is brought within 20
minutes ride from Third and Market
streets The proposed tunnel is to be
one and a seventh miles in length
and to cost about $2,500,000. This is a
very. small sum compared to the bene
fits to accrue.
1t is the purpose of the Twin Peaks
tunnel and Improvement. convention to
bring about the construction of sew
era1 other needed tunnels in San
Francisco But the Twin Peaks tun-
mel is the largest and most needed.
1t should come first. The others will
be taken care of more easily.

At rest in the peaceful home land
This precious truth: may it be
Like balm in these hours of sadness,
A comfort to thine and to thee.
No storms shall darken the home land,
No burden of pain or care.
No tears shall mar its beauty,
For they can not enter there.
Three words more precious than rubies
Like links in golden chain,
They bind our hearts to the home land
They soothe our grief and pain.
They are Mother. Home and Heaven,
On life's stormy way they shed
Kindly light to guide you homeward
AS its thorny path you tread.

responsible for the nomination of
Kern.
With the animosity of the Shively
faction toward Kern it was at once i'm
possible for Kern to take the lead of
the party in the campaign. Ordinarily
the senatorial candidate would be the
high man in the fight, but the opposi-
ton of the Shiyely faction has made
this impossible. In fact, Kern has
been driven into the background and
Governor Marshall has become the
leader and it is up to him to pull
Kern through.
The republicans do not believe he
can do this. The load is too heavy,
since large element of the party.
headed by Senator Shively is sore on
Kern. The governor will be required
to race up and down the state and
make speeches that Kern ought to
make. That is the penalty of being a
party leader, however.
Requests for Speeches.
Governor Marshall is receiving more
requests for speeches this year than he
can accept. They are not political re-
tiers reunions. Sunday school picnics.
farmers institutes and meetings and
many other gatherings. Today he is
at Kokomo making speech at the
laying of corner stone of the new Y.
M. c. A. building. But he is not ac-
cepting the scores of invitations which
are pouring in on him. He has al
ready received dozens of requests for
Fourth of July speeches. Many of the
cities, towns and counties throughout
the state have already invited him to
deliver orations on that day. but he
Las not yet announced whether he will
