problem are teaching many eyes to zee facts to which before they had been blind.
 But having begun to see, 1t is then hign time to act. That action may be produc- tive of results Lawrence Veiller, the geo. retary of the association, has prepared a housing programme. Individuals acting alone can seldom accomplish much for community betterment. So the first step is the formation of a citizens committee, which shall make an intelligent investl- gation of existing conditions With facts as basis this committee may then ex- pee. to secure needed legislation. Bilt then, unlike many citizens committees or ganized to correct social evils, it ahall not go out of existence; instead it shall stay on the job to see that It's legislation is en- forced Many law has been put on the statute books as a salve to outraged cltl- |zenshp. And that is the end Of 1t. This committee is to see that the law is both on the books and in the minds of the prop CT officials. And it is to see that there are proper officials, for no law enforces itself. Having progressed so far the committee may take up those interesting questions which arise in every community that has begun to realize the vital importance or decent housing to the health and effl- cheney of it's people; economical and eff |cieEt management of inexpensive houses. the selection of tenants, the improvement |of the older houses, the study of social |conditions, overcrowding, rents, etc, all of which will result in the education of the community, including the tenants anI the landlords. and will probably lead to a de
 nand that those who manage or super wise tenant property, even the janitors and the city inspectors, shall have had training to fit them for their work.

The accompanying photographs de- pict the remarkable demonstration ten dered to Harry N. Atwood, the most famous aviator in the country, upon his arrival at the Boston aviation grounds. Atwood's reception was billed for half-past three o'clock, but it was an hour later before he arrived. He came unaccompanied by 'the flock of aeroplanes" which it was announced would fly over the hills to meet him. but be received greeting from the three or four thousand persons in the grand stand and in the field that dem onstrated that he was among friends who are proud of his achievements in the air. When he swooped down from the clouds he passed by an automobile in which were his mother and father and waved his hand to them.
 He aighted in the centre of the field amid the cheers of the crowd. the bursting of bombs and the playing of "See the Conquering Hero Comes" by the band. A silver cup was given him by newspaper men with whom he made his first cross country flight in New England, and a Goddess of Lib erty statue by Everett Jansen Wendell acting for Clifford B. Harmon.

FEWER PRAIRIE CHICKENS
Indiana Mayor and Sheriff Pay for
 Killing Two of Them

From the Indianapolis News.
 A reminder that there are or were few prairie chickens in the northwestern part of the state came the other day i'll an item saying that four men in Laporte county that four men had paid into the state fish and game fund $5S.7O as penal ty for shooting these birds. Of these four one is the Mayor of the city of Laporte and another the sheriff of the county. Two prairie chickens, it is said, were found in the game bags of the Mayor and Sheriff.
 The prairie chicken, or pinnated grouse, has been all but eXterminated in Indiana. It is 15 to F inches long; its general color is black, tawney and white, much bar red and streaked. On the sides of the neck are tufts of long pointed black feathers, beneath which is patch of bare red skin capable of great imitation. In the pairing season in the spring the males meet at break of day at what are called "scratching places,"s where they swell and strut and engage in fierce combats. During these engagements they utter peculiar sound, made more intense by the inflated sacs at the sides of the neck.
 The largest member of the grouse fam fly is the wood grouse, or capercailie, once known in Scotland, but now extinct in the British Isles. This bird is yet found much of northern Europe and Asia and it seems strange that our gov ernment has taken no steps to introduce 1t here in the states of the northwest. The capercailllie, or wood grouse, meas ures nearly three feet in length. and full grown male may weigh 15 pounds being fully as large as turkey. The males have glossy back plumage, with green metallic reflection. The females are
 1,rnx1 mot al black. They build their nests on the ground in underbrush and lay eight to ten yellowish white eggs spotted with dark yellow.

PROFIT ON APPLES
Even the Grower Who Gets 1 Cent
 for 5 Cent Apple Makes Money

From the Washington Post.
 ''We talk more about apples and the money we make by raising them than about politics these days" said Miles Moore of the state of Washington. MT. Moore has been governor of his state.
 "We are never tired of advertising our apples,' he continued. and you find them in every city in the world. Of course, 1t is regretted that they are always called Oregon apples. Our ship ments equal those of Oregon, and our apples are just as good. The farmers who raise the apples are making money, of course. buts 1t might amaze you to know when you pay five and eight cents for single apple, that our home or chard man sold it for about one cent. I paid 15 cents for my apple at breakfast this morning.
 ''I do not know how many people ham dled it before 1t got to the hotel, but the farmer at home got mighty small part of the price 1 paid. With the small price paid to the producer of apples, it is amaz- ing how much a small orchard will bring in I know a school teacher who bought 10 acres of apple trees, and out of the profits from 10 acres he was enabled to but 100 acres. Now he has just sold that orchard for $150000."

The charge that my client poisoned
her son is outrageous. She loved that
boy as dearly as any mother loves ner

nine weeks of illness. Looking On Il

her alive than dead, for he a a good

nothing. That destroys the ssuned
