MAN or PEACE BUT

Rep. Fess Declares in Deliv.
ering Address on the
Panama Canal.

Il believe that the future trade route
of the world is through the Pacific"
said s. D. Fess, NJ c., in an address
on the significance of the Panama Ca
nal, at the Chautauqua yesterday af
ternoon. Japan has done things in
ffty years past which have made the
world take notice. What Japan can do,
China can do better. China will be
our competitor in the future when her
vast resources are opened up she viii
supply the world, along With the pro-
ducts of India There is the trade Of

route to Europe is drought the Pana-
ma canal | believe in a program
which viii make the nation save, but
/ also believe in enough OF a navy to
patrol our possessions. SO | will vote
for two modern warships, but / will
cast my vote as peace man. These
two vessels will cost $30,000,000 If
this money was spent Tor twenty mer-
chant vessels to take up this trade
through the Pacific ocean and the
canal! we would start great mer-
chant marine that would be the best

pass the trade of the world"
He Visited Canal Zone.
Mr.. Fess was in the canal zone this
spring as Il delegate from congress
to inspect the work The first thing
that ] asked to see was the fortifiCa-
tions, and | saw the guns mounted on
an island in front of the entrance,
where they could readily protect the
canal We have right to fortify, we
have fortified. and there is no posi-
bility for an foreign vessel to enter
against our will" he said.
A very interesting discussion of the
construction of the canal was given
by Mr.. Fess. mo one can have any
conception of the stupendous effort
which has been put forth there except
by a personal visit, no matter how
much you may have read on the sub
ject. | met many persons from foreign
countries who were there as repre-
sentatives of their different govern
ments, studying the methods used by
our government. They said to me,
The world is paying tribute TO the
states for what they are doing.

tended the fourth International con
yention on school hygiene,
DR. Bramkamp stated this afternoon
that more time was given To a discus

than to any other subject. II WAS the
consensus of opinion that a sound

proper cultivation of the mind can b.,

Al the present time the teachers OF

This work will be advanced under the

The mere examination of school

FRENCH FAMILY DINNERS.

the Most of Their Food,

the Most of Their Food.
A typical French dinner-not an ex-
ceptional one, mark you, but such a
dinner as a small BRIDESMAIDS family
would have-is incomparably superior
to the plain roast dinner.
There would be, first of all, few
relishes, according to the season of the
year. Radishes ice cold; sardines.
olives. caviare. Just little of each with
which to awaken the appetite, then
the soup to excite gently the liquids of
the throat and stomach, then q little
entree-usually bit of fish with its
appropriate vegetable. or a handful of
vegetables favored with meat sauce.
course appear.
1t may be roast, or game, or chick
en-. or chops, but in no case will it be
anything which is not in harmony
with the previous courses and it will
be eaten in moderation. for the edge
of the diners appetite will have been
dulled by the lighter foods which have
preceded 1t. With 1t comes the salad
varied throughout the year by all
the possible changes OF the season. and
never. never by any possibility will ii
be such a dreadful hybrid as the ro-
maine. strawberry and green pepper
thing. After the salad there will be
fruit or mellow cheese, and then cot
fee.
1t win take two hours to eat such a
dinner. but it will take only half what
the typical American dinner costs to
pay for it and there will be no indi-
gestion afterward no matter of what
the dinner Is composed.-Princess Has

Gennett's Comment.

Commenting on the report to be
filed by the special committee with
the board of directors Monday even
ing. Henry Gennett stated yesterday
that the contemplated action of the
committee in urging the appointment
of some one to go over the holdings
Of the company should not be con-
strued as condemnatory of the man
agement Of the waterworks. for it was
simply desired in order that the Com
mercial club might possess itself Of
complete information for submission
later to the public utilities commits
sion should it be deemed necessary or
desirable to do so.
The idea OF having a special ap-
praisement Of the property OF the
waterworks company made was re-
ferred by the city attorney and the
board OF public works to the CONNER
cial club for an expression of its
opinion in regard TO the desira biIity
Of such action 1t is estimated that
such a report will cost the city
$4,000. The Maury report cost $500,

COMMERCIAL CLUB
TO ADVISE EXPERT
To Draw Up An Inventory of
the Valuation of Water
Works Plant.

Appointment of an expert to draw
an inventory of the assets of the Rich
mond City Water Works will be urged
upon the city attorney and the board
of public works by the Richmond
Commercial club following the report
of the waterworks committee at the
monthly meeting of the board of di-
rectors to be held Monday evening.
The report of the valuation of this
company as fixed by the expert will
be submitted to the public utilities
gether with the report that will be
submitted by the company itself for
the use of the commission in fixing
the rates that may be charged the
citizens of Richmond for water
While the nature of the report that
mission cannot be foretold, it is
thought by many that it will follow
closely on the lines marked out by
D. b. Maury in checking the accounts
of the company four years ago. 1t is
contended by the special committee
mate the true assets of the company,
so that any supposedly equitable fixed
rate would enable the company to
earn more than it should on the actual
money invested in the business.
Exception is taken by the commit
tee to the former report as it includes
the service pipes of the city which
connect the mains with buildings, in
the list of the property holdings of the
company. These pipes, the commit
tee asserts, are the property of the
users of the water because they paid
for them. These pipes alone are val
ued at nearly $4,000, less a deprecia-
ton of approximately $4,000.
Exception is also taken to the item
of the Maury report, which gives a
going concern" valuation of over
$4,000 to the company. This covers
the cost of duplicating the business
the company was enjoying at the time
of the report.
