Public Utilities

a number OF papers throughout
the Union are now taking up the
plan OF Government ownership 81
public utilities. They point out that
the postal savings bank is a success,
that the parcels post promises mtlcn
for the people, and now they advo-
cate the taking over OF the telephone
and telegraph lines by the Govern
mcnt as a starter in the line OF adj
tancemcnt.
1t is strange how the plans are
spreading. 1t will be reasonable to
suppose that inside OF another decade
most OF the utilities will be owned b,
the Government and worked for the
benefit Of the people. America Is
confcsscdly behind the times on such
usage compared with Europe and
only the big interests have kept the
Introduction of modernism into pub
lie service.
Uncle Sam is making some big
strides forward in this line of revised
Socialism, and the nice part OF it all
j. that the people are taking the So
cialistic medicine without much pro-
test. About the only ones who ar
doing the complaining arc the big
corporations. whose stoc'; has been
sent down the scale by the people
coming in for a share OF the profits.
The wild protest now arising from
the express companies over the un-
ION only go to show how much thev
we're making ON the public service.
For one the people are witnessing
the old enemy doing the fighting to
oct a ROO to hold onto.

A Suggestion

4. y. GRAY in the Commonwealth
suggests the following:
"Thc Nevada building 1T the Pana-
ma Exposition should be a unique
ummcr house that would not cost
much over a thousand dollars. 1t
should @conatin plenty of comfortable
seats where people could rest. The
walls should be covered with photo
graphs Of Nevada homes, ranches.
town houses. mines and orchards,
with the names and addresses of
owners on the bottom Of each photo.
There should be daily and weekly
files Of every paper published in Ne
vada for people to read.
There should be some w~ell-chosen
samples of our products. and an
abundance OF every kind OF literature
that can be printed about each county
and district.
Then put two jolly entertainers,
two men who could and would well
come every visitor and entertain all.
make them welcome, insist on their
resting and reading. and tell them 10
come to Nevada. where they will be
given a like welcome by every one.
The whole thing can be done for
what il cost To have a Publicity Com
missioner the past two years.
And then build a state thorough
fare so that the travel east and west
that year will go through Nevade.
Now listen to the grafters and Cal
ifornia promoters howl about cheap
things. ~

Will Talk to People

IF seems to be the determination
OF President-elect Wilson to shatter
al least one tradition OF the Iresl-
dental Office. and that i, that the
Chief Executive must not be inter
viewed or give out statements III the
first person save in messages to Con-
grcss or formal speeches. He an
nounces that when there seems to be
need OF any remark, from the White
House he will make them himself.
and relcgatc the third-person style
OF doing it to the rear.
Wen. why not? 1t will not injure
the dignity OF the Office. nor offend
the people. 1t will have the merit
of frankness and emove all POSSIBLE
ity OF error; likewise that very disa-
greeable contingency that a third-per-
son statement be denied. il it does
not meet popular approval-and some
Presidents have actually done that,
though no one believes that Wood
row Wilson could or would.
The people OF the United States
will rather like the gilt OF the free
and full confidence OF their Presi-
dent. and there i no doubt that they
will respond in kind. The White
House roof will not fall because a
little formality is removed from III
der If.

HELEN GOULD has decided that
no pubic wedding is for her. She
invites a few relatives and close
friends and the ceremony is TO take
place in plain American fashion. it
is her consistent action along such
lines that has endeared her to the
American people. 1t is safe to say
that more real good wishes will fol
low her through life than any Amer

ADDS TO THE LENGTH OF LIFE
Nothing Better Than Pedestrian Elk
ercisc. Especially to Those Who
Have Passed Beyond Youth.

Some OF the most noted of tne old
men of New York, successful in bust
ness, the professions and public affairs.
have formed a walking club for the
purpose OF making their pursuit OF
still greater length of days and still
better health as agreeable as it is sen.
sible. They intend to take long walks
together and, no doubt, to make their
pedestrian experiences the subject OF
entertaining discussion and a store of
memories held in common. This is an
example which might we'll be followed
In every city of the United States In
the era OF motor vehicles there is dan.
ger that walking will be increasingly
neglected, especially by men and WON
en- advanced in years, who often need
It most. There is a constant tempta.
ton to forget that riding in the open
air, fine as it is in many ways, can
never do for the body what walking
does.

COULD ONE DOUBT HIS LOVE?
Devotion Almost Sublime Exhibited
by Harold After a Test That Was

that was all, for she had only spent
two years at a cooking school before
her recent marriage.

and devoured seven more.
The third course was biscuits, and
as for the fourth, biscuits 1t was
four-course dinner. and Harold did
justice to each course. For dessert
there were biscuits.
The next day after Harold had
been pronounced out of danger and
the doctor had assured him that the
acute indigestion would not return if
he was careful about what he ate. the
young husband called his wife to his
bedside. She approached with great
trepidation. Biscuits had not been
mentioned between them in the inter
walls that he was conscious during the
night Now she expected to hear the

guests. to the number of a dozen. had
just finished their soup when the un.
fortunate incident occurred The
scramble to find a sufficient number
or candles SO that the dinner might
proceed was attended with great
deal of difficulty and no little amuse.

as being bit new to his job, was i'm

many, is one OF the most peculiar in
Stitutions in the world. 1t is in the
nature OF private savings and loan
bank, conducted for the exclusive
benefit of its depositors. 1t was insti-
tuted i'm 1925 by eighty prominent citi-
zens, for the purpose of offering an
inducement for saving to the poorer
classes and safe opportunity for in
vestment and profitable return.
1t was also provided by law that
none of the profits should ever be di-
vided among the members. but that
they should be distributed among en-
terprises OF public utility.
For twenty years the business was
transacted by members of the society
without remuneration. but later the
work was turned over to salaried
clerks. But up TO this day no mem

museum. $4,000 for educational pur-
poses. and numerous other gifts to
hospitals, orphan asylums, libraries,
reading rooms. schools. homes for old

Fish Fiahtine Popular Sport.

Were some one to tell you that so
far as gameness was concerned you
had all the vitality and spunk of a
fish. you probably would believe he
was either joking or intended to in
suit you. yet such is not the case. for
there are fish that are game, spunky,
and possess great vitality.
The particular fish mentioned is
the Malayan fighting fish, known gen
orally in Siam as the Pla-Kat, but
elsewhere as the Beta Pugnax. These
fish are bred in Siam and some other
countries just for sport. and their
ability to fight means much to their
hackers.
The Pla-Kat is a vertable fighting
cock of the deep and 1t is an inherent
trait with il to fight rather than to
eat. At some of the big contests,
when the best fish are pittcd against
each other, thousands of spectators
gather to see the contest and small
fortunes often change hands on the
result
