SIMPLY MATTER OF BUSINESS
Thrifty Citizens Of Paris Well Aware
That II Pays to Spend Money
In Improving the City.

While the residents of Chicago are
still In doubt as to the practicability
Of trying to carry out the plans of the
"Plan of Chicago" the residents of
Paris have given quite convincing
preof Of their confidence that beau
tiful city not only pays artistically,
but commercially as we'll. The
municipality of Paris asked the citi-
Eens Of Paris to subscribe a loan Of
950.000.00o francs (about $4,000. .000).
the money to be used In beautifying
the city. The people promptly re-
sponded by oversubscribing the
amount thirty times.
The Illuminating point Is that the
people of Paris have been taxed more
than the people Of any other city in
the world for civic improvement,
municipal Identification. Perhaps
they were SO willing to subscribe for
another loan that would mean addi-
tional taxes because they had already
paid out enough to know they would
get 1t back many times over. Back
OF the desire Of the Parisians for a
beautiful city there is strong artis-
tic impulse. But back of both there
are powerful business considerations
operating to make the people Of the
French city realize the commercial
Dement'S of city beautiful.

Parks and Politics.

It has been demonstrated by expert.
ence in many cities that the park sys-
tenn more than any other OF the un.
dertakings Of city should be man
aged independently Of the council or
legislative body Of the city govern.
ment The reason for this IL, of
course. that the majority of the Nom.
bers Of the city government is com.
posed Of practical politicians or of
men who have about the same educa.
ton. the same impulses and ideas
and about the same tastes. 1t should
be clearly understood that no blame
10 meant to be cast upon practical
politicians. 1t Is simply a fact that
when they control the management Of

did not faize in the least the work
of the town board.
The new air compressor, now in
use at the city plant for pumping
water, is great sucress, and the
marked improvement of our light
system in consequence, is now the
topic of conversation.
Engineer Walters, in charge of
the sewer construction, reported
progress. stating that at the
present ratio the completion of
the sewer would consume at least
40 days more.
The Streets and Alleys com.
niittee were empowered to secure
mower to cut the weeds from

IL Is the intention OF the Streets
and Alleys committee to put En-
