SLUMS FOUND WHEREVER
THERE Is CONGESTION
Lack of Adequate Transit Cause o.
Crowded and Diapeatcd HOUSES.

Lack of adequate transit and trans
portation facilities is one of the chict
causes of congestion. says g. A. Ford
I'm the American City. With no good
means of going to and from the heart
of the city people are forced To remain
in the near viCinilY Of their work.
and in this connection we use the
word "adequate" adviSedlY. for il is
perfectly possible for subway 70 hr
SO placed that its operation tends to
increase rather than decrease ccn~cs-
ton.
Again. congestion often appears a.
result of the lack of aGeq1ate ct!
regulations with regard To orcn spa g.
sunlight. etc These regulations woui
differ in different communities. Levy:
the smaller community must be caro-
full not to adopt standards for these
things such MS have been adopted hy
the greatest cities, rs this often tend ;
to incitc builders in the smaller com
munities to ape the into,erablc condi-
tons prevalent in the greater cities.
Speculation in land. due to the dc
sire of each individual To get the max.
imum possible return on his holdings.
this return often being ont of all pro
portion to anything that the owner
himself has done to bring it about,
probably accounts more than anything
else for the worst phases Of conges-
ton.
That congestion has marked effect
on health no one can doubt. Its tend
ency is to crowd tenements so closely
together that a good circulation OF air
or the admission of sunlight into liv-
ing rooms becomes impossible, The
rooms are dark. The air in the mar
row Sits of shafts and wells becomes
staCnant and foul. There is no incen-
tive to self respect on the part OF the
dwellers in these novels. The shafts
become n receptacle for the constantly
increasing accumulation of garbage
II is nobodys business to see that II IS
cleared out.

COMMENCEMENT DAYS.

Fargo-in common with other sec
tions Of these glorious United States
Is enjoying commencement days. The
exercises at one of the local institutions
of learning are already over and those
at the others are in progress or soon
will be. Those of the A. C. are on, hav-
ing begun last night. The Fargo col
lege comes next week. The high school
exercises and the close of the year at
the Conservatives and other institu-
tions follow.
Many young people will be graduated
from these institutions and be ready
TO start their battles In the world.
Some OF them will be splendidly equip
ped with practical educations. They
will have a profitable and money max
ing profession from the moment they
leave school.
Some of the graduates will find
things quite different than they antici-
pate. They will learn that while the
world owes everyone living, there are
times when the world is rather slow
pay-unless the collectors are active
and persistent.
Fargo is proud Of the educational
facilities it possesses. Its reputation
as an educational center is as we'll
known as its widely advertised finan-
ciaI and commercial prominence. The
people Of the city are showing a more
direct personal interest in the schools
and colleges than formerly. They take
great pride in showing their visiting
friends over the grounds of the leading
schools.
Fargo is particularly fortunate in
this respect and one of its greatest as
sets is its educational advantages.

W screen the windows and the doors.
The best method Of all is absolute
cleanliness and neatness around the
house. No filth should be left to attract
land breed them.
Stops from the kitchen, pieces Of
meat or other food that may decay
all should be taken outside OF city
limits and there disinfected.
Dead animals-in fact. all filth
should be disposed Of before decompo-
sition sets in. These facts, all know,
but how many neglect to pay any at
tention to them! Flies in the house,
IL screened, can easily be gotten rid OF,
and should be at once. One fiy may
infect every dish Of food on the table.
Think Of tia fly has come from an
extended walk over the carcass Of some
dead animal putrid and poisonous!
That same fly or brothers and sisters
of his, may also investigate your face,
neck and hands. The sleeping babe
may be poisoned by single fly-bite-
none are immune!
Let the slogan be: Screen your
homes-clean up all filth-death to the
fy-the most poisonous animal in the
world"
