Front Yard and Back Yard.

Three thousand school children oil
Paducah put in a couple OF afternoons
recently in clearing up the back yards
at their respective residences. The work
was done at the suggestion of the
Woman Club OF Paducah. In addi-
ton to the cleaning up, an effort will
be made to induce the children to
beautify the back yards by planting
vines and flowers along unsightly fences
The spirit Of Identification should
not make the front lawn its permanent
abiding place. There is a pretty gem
eral tendency to neglect the back yard.
About spring cleaning time it gets a
lick and promise. +" About the time
the sanitary inspector is due it is cur
ried over with rake and made to look
fairly presentable and passably germ
less. For the rest of the year in ma
iority of cases it is left to take care of
itself. The front yard gets 'barbered"
about once a week and manicured and
massaged between times, but the back
yard looks more disorderly than Popu-
list beard in Kansas cyclone and more
disreputable than one of James Eads
Howe's hobo conventions.
There is no good reason why the con-
trast between the front yard and the
back yard should be so marked; why
the front yard should be groomed like
prince while the back yard is CARRIED
like a pauper In the nature of things
it IS somewhat difficult to make the
rear premises as attractive as the front
lawn, but it is easily possible to keep
the back yard clean and sanitary |
that is of sufficient moment to the
household health and comfort to justify |
whatever effort is required.
Why not give the back yard a chanceS
Why not make it ornamental as we'll as
useful2 Why not give it bath, shave
and a shine with the same regularity
that those courteous attentions are ex-
tended to its pampered neighbor, the
front yard Courier Journal.

London, July 5.-Danger of interna-

by the powers today to hold "conver-
sations' over Morocco. The powers
concerned are France, Germany, Great
Britain. Spain and Russia and the pro-
posal for pour parlers comes from
Germany. There is no question of an
other A1geciras conference but it is
recognized that the inper ding CONVEX
sations are likely to settle at the gate

garded as a possible cause of interna-
tional difficulties
Any important decision o. the pow

Morocco would have to be submitted
to the signatories of the klgeciras con-
ventiOn including the United States
which is understood to be interested
in the disposition of the southw estern
coast of Morocco on account of the
nearness to South America.

NEWLANDS HAS A PLAN.
He Proposes a Commission to Control
Industrial Corporations.

Washington. July 5.-An interstate
trade commission of five members to
control Industrial corporations as the
interstate commerce commission con-
trolls the railroads was advocated ia
a bill introduced in the senate today by
Mr.. Newlands of Nevada. Mr. New
lands cOntended that the Standard Oil
and tobacco decisions and the recent
government report on the steel indus
try demonstrated the need of IAN in
dependent quasi-judicial and admin
stratiVe tribunal of great character and
dignity as far removed from partisan
control as are the courts The plan
is to apply only to industrial corpora
lions engaged in Interstate trade whose
annual receipts exceed $4,000, 900.
Mr.. Newlands' statement was by way
Of urging the passage of a bill which
he introduced providing for this COM
mission. His measure would require
all the industrial corporations having
receipts exceeding 100000 to make
satisfactory statements as to capital
cation, finances and operations, such
CORPORATIONS to be known as United
States registered companies"
1t proposes to make lack q such
registration, indications of something
wrong.
The measure proposed by MT New
lands includes these provisions: The
commission may at any time cancel
the registration of any register corpoT-
alton for improper financial organiza-
ton. oppressive or unfair methods Of
competition acceptance of railroad re-
bates, refusal to allow access to records
of noncompliance with any judicial de-
cree rendered under the Sherman act
It may in extreme cases, for such Of
lenses, debar the offending corporations
from engaging in interstate commerce
and it may require correction of over
Capitalization. It's work, according to
Mr.. Newlands, is not to be complicated
with the administration of antitrust

Pittsburg, July 5.-When the presi-
