WHY Is a Perqola2

An interesting question Is raised by
a writer on gardens in the Atlantic
Monthly. Why should so many Amer
lean gardens have that queer, irrele-
want, useless thing called a "pergola?'
Generally it is built In a spot where
shade is called for, but the pergola.
having no roof, affords no shade. 1t is
really a trellis and is borrowed from
countries where it is used to support
grapevines, but American g~rapevines
are kept pruned back to mere stumps,
and the pergola, as affected by our
su%burbanites, is of no use at all as a
grape trellis. What is its use we have
never been able to find out Perhaps
some one knows. AS n generally
sees it. the pergola is a sprawling, ex-
tremely naked object, suggesting a
shed which has had its roof blown off
by a gale or a henroost that has been
deserted by the hens because it is no
good. Can it be that it is regarded by
some people as ornamental?

Fritz Obeyed tho Rule.

Elizabeth Forster-Nietzsche In her
biography of her celebrated brother,
Fritz Nietzsche, speaks much of his
childhood. Serious as he was-the pu-
pills Of the municipal school at Naum-
burg called him "the little minister
he was now and then the occasion of
amusement. One such occurrence.
which became a standing joke, is re-
lated as follows:
One day, just as school was over,
there was a heavy downpour of rain,
and we looked out along the Priester-
gasse for our Fritz. All the boys were
running like mad to their homes. At
last little Fritz also appeared, walking
slowly along, with his cap covering
his slate and his little handkerchief
spread over the whole. Mamma
ed and called out to him when he was
some way off, Run, child, rum" The
sheets of rain prevented US from
catching his reply. When u mother
demonstrated with him for coming
home soaked to the skin he replied Sc
riously: But, mamma, in the rules Of
the school it Is written, On leaving
school boys are forbidden to jump and
run about in the street, but must walk
quietly and decorously to their
homes.'" Fritz had obeyed this rule
under the most adverse circumstances.

Roosevelt's Boise Speech.

Colonel Roosevelt in a recent speech
at Boise touched on the forest conser-
walton policy, and among other things,
said, by the fact that since he had
been in the northwest he had talked to
several men who said that small settlers
on timber claims, in some cases, had
not been treated fairly. II have heard
these complaints m Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho. l intend, if l have the
honor to be elected president to see
that the conservation policy is admins
trated in the interests of the actual
settler-the man who moves on the
land to live there and who will leave it
in an impoved condition for his children.
In other words the policy should be one
of administration for the benefit of the
small man and not fer the great com-
panies.
IF l become president I shall make
it my personal affair to investigate the
working of all the laws concerned with
the conservation of the water power,
of the forest laws and of the grazing
laws so as to make sure they are
actual administrated not only honestly,
but without any improper red tape, in
the interest of the small man. If any
injustices are being done, either
through corruption or through a sys-
TEN OF red tape in administration, that
is all wrong"
We would like to ask, who is response
BILE for the policy that the colonel
speaks of. 1t is a well-known. fact that
Roosevelt and Pinchot made all the
rulings and created all the red tape
connected with the administration of
the forest reserves. 1t is also we'll
known that during the time that
Pinchot was at the head of the forest
reserve there was no administration in
any sense-it was simply arbitrary
rulings. Any one who has lived on the
forest reserves knows that so far Is
administration goes, it was simply a
farce.
During the last two or three years
changes have been made that have
been very beneficial to all who have
any connection with the forestry bureau.
President Taft has done more to make
forest reserve what it ought, to be than
any president, since the law was
created. There are a great many
rulings in the administration that could
very well be done away with, that
would make the forestry one that
would be a great benefit to all, and we
believe that President Taft is bloac
minded enough to correct these evils.
