Be Paved.

The fight over the paving of West
Main street from First to Fifth
streets Is not over yet, according to
predictions made by city officials. 1t
was stated this morning that q petit
ton was being circulated among the
property owners on that street, asking
for a brick street, and that several
who had fought the improvement
when 1t was up for consideration some
time ago, have changed, and are in
favor of brick paving. The councilmen
will probably favor brick improve
ment for the street IL it is brought up
to them for consideration again, az
one councilman. who last time cast
the deciding vote against the bricking
Of the street, has announced he would
change his vote il he voted again.

WANT WATER FOR
CHICAGO SEWERS
To Be Taken From Lake
Michigan-Canada OPP
poses the Move.
(National News Association)

WASHINGTON. d. c., March a.
The Dominion of Canada, as represent
ed by delegates from the Provincial
Governments of Ontario and Quebec
and the commercial. manufacturing
and marine organizations Of many OF
the chief cities. appeared in battle
array before Secretary Of War Stimson
today to oppose the plan to increase
the flow Of water through the Chicago
Drainage Canal. The omcial and COM
mercial delegations were reinforced by
eminent Canadian counsel.
At the outset Of the hearing 1t be-
came apparent that Canada intends to
make a vigorous fight for what she
considers her rights. The trouble Is all
over an application Of the Drainage
Commission of the district OF Chicago
for an increase in the amount Of va
ter that they shall be allowed to take
from Lake Michigan for drainage
purposes. At present the amount IL
1000 cubic feet per second. They want
this increased to 10000 cubic feet and
the reason alleged 10 for the purpose
OF increasing the drainage system. In
behalf Of the proposal 1t 10 argued that
the project affects no less than $780,
900 people included In the drainage
district and that it is absolutely neces.
sary to their health and safety to in
crease the drainage flow, at least until
some other satisfactory means IL
found for disposing Of the sewage.
The Canadian objections, which are
shared by Michigan and other States
bordering on the. Great Lakes, are has
ed on the belief that the lowering of
the lake levels would seriously affect
the shipping interests and sanitation
of many cities.
The treaty between the United
States and Canada permits the water
of the lakes to be used for drainage
systems, but it IL alleged that although
the application is being made under
this guise, Chicago's real purpose il to
get enough water for power develop
ment.

/
There r. class Of people who are
Ike the old man who searched dill
gently for his glasses, and then finally
locates them on his head where he has
pushed them up out Of the way from
his eyes. They are always looking for
opportunities. but cannot ind them
because they are too close at hand. In
fact, they would not recognize an op.
portunity II they saw one; and, even
though they did recognise 1T, they
would be too Indifferent to appreciate
its value.
While many who are deserving OF
better opportunities are vainly trying
to ind them, others with the bets OF
opportunities are neglecting them.
An instance comes to mind in which
. young man had an exceptionally
good opportunity. but he was SO non
chalant, and did his work in such q
perfunctory way that one of the best
chances he ever had slipped away
from him.
This young man had been living in q
small city where he had vainly tried to
provide the comforts of life for him.
self. his wife, and the three children.
An opportunity came to him to rent
q farm on the third basis. and he rent.
ed it.
He moved to the farm during the
last week in February: and, when
finally settled and ready to take up
the farm work, he had only seven dol.
lars and forty cents with which to buy
groceries and other necessities. That
was not very high financial standing
for q man who must wait from Febru.
airy until harvest time for a pay day,
was It? Fortunately. the landlord was
of the compassionate kind, and the
young man did not have to worry
about funds. Tie wasn't Of the worry.
ing kind anyway
The owner of the farm furnished
practically everything except grocer
les. clothing, household furniture and
labor. There were six mich cows, and
the tenant received half the proceeds
from the butter and milk; there were
Atty head Of hogs. and the tenant re-
ceived one-third of the increase; there
were three brood mares. and the young
man received a third interest in the
colts; there were twenty head of heif-
ers. and one-third Of the increase be-
longed to the tenant; there were fifty
hens, half of which were owned by the
young man: he received half the eggs
and chickens. There was a wheat crop
on the farm. but the young man did
not get any of that; because 1t was put
out before he came. however, he re-
ceived pay for harvesting it. The
young man put out about fifty acres
Of corn and. of course, received one
third of the crop.
Doesn't that look like an opportuni-
ty? Don't you believe that you would
nurse such a chance as that II you
were in that young mans place. OF
course you would; but he didn't.
The landlord. although a painfully
particular man. was not the worst land
lord in the world; in fact, he was far
above the average. There was nothing
in the line Of necessary equipment
that he did not provide. and all of 1t
was new. The landlord was a we'll post.
ed man-very much progressive in his
he wanted his farm run
along scientific lines. That was where
he and the young man came to the
parting of the ways.
The young man ridiculed the land
lords suggestions, and called them

An OPPORTUNITY IS NEGLECTED

book farming" He showed no inclina-
lions whatever toward following the
owners wishes. The landlord was not
bossy. yet he wanted things done along
the most advanced lines. He had con-
siderable money invested. and natural
~ wanted his investments to yield the
largest possible returns. He freQuented
the farm more than he would have
done had the young man showed any
inclination whatever toward doing the
right thing. In fact, the owner had
another farm on which he had q ten
ant whom he seldom visited. because
that tenant was just as keenly alive
to the possibilities in scientific farm
ing as the owner himself was.
The young man was a very affable
sort Of q fellow. always pleasant. and
the neighborhood al liked him; II he
had been as much of a worker as his
wife, of whom he made Z beast Of bur-
den. it would not have been necessary
for him to look for another job at the
seasons close.
There was . good roomy tool shed
on the farm, but the young man did
not seem to know its purpose; he
would leave the tools wherever he hap
pened to Anish using them. He did not
seem to realize that the farm imple-
ments represented the expenditure OF
considerable money. and that leaving
them exposed to the damaging effects
Of tho elements reduced their efici-
ency and life and the landlords
prots.
1t was not only in the way that he
cared for the Implements that he
showed his negligence; but in the way
he handled practically everything else
about the place. He neglected the hors-
es and they were reduced from sleek.
fat animals to walking hat racks; the
hogs from the lack of sufficient water
became extremely razorback, and he
let them run at large to root up sod
everywhere, even in the dooryard.
Do you suppose II you had been the
landlord you could have stood that
OF the season? We don't believe that
you could; but that landlord did. and
the young man had the nerve to ask
for an extension of the lease.
When the young man asked for the
extension of the lease, the owner did
not jump onto him with both feet as
you and the writer would, no doubt,
have done; but he gave that young
man some mighty sensible advice-as
good advice as a father could have CIV
en- him.
He did not rent the farm to the
young man, however, but he did say
that he would lease it to the young
mans wife II the young man would let
her superintend the farm work and II
he would do as she directed. The
young man became very indignant and
displayed his temper. Now he is back
in the city bewailing the fact that
everything seems to be against him,
and that he never was as lucky about
tumbling onto opportunities as some
fellows.
When he left the farm in the fall he
took with him a little over eight hun
dred dollars. This was what he had
cleared over and above his expenses
in spite Of his gross mismanagement,
and he had only seven dollars and
forty cents when he came to the farm
in February.
Do you suppose that people in this
young mans class would ever recog-
nise an opportunity?
