SOCIAL NEEDS
Of ATLANTA

What Atlanta needs is a scientific
direction of all its social activities
This was the statement made by
Shelby NJ. Harrison Wednesday, who
is here with Franz Schneider. Jr., and
Zenas L. Potter. at the request of the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce to
make an investigation of the city's
social and commercial needs. All are
experts from the department of sur
veys and exhibits of the Russell sage
Foundation.
q am basing my observation. not
on what / have seen Of Atlanta, but
on what l have seen in practically
every city in which I have been IN
the United States" added Mr.. Harri-
son.
in the past cities have grown in
haphazard aimless manner. They
have leaped into Importance through
their natural advantages, but their
growth in many instances has not
been symmetrical. They have ignored
and neglected certain features they
are coming to-day to realize are abso-
lutely essential to their we'll being
and continued progress.
Fairgrounds Overlooked.
Sometimes it has been Fairgrounds
and other provisions for the happi-
ness and health Of the children that
have been overlooked in the breath

that the sanitation has not been cared

Big Wheat Crop This Year

After trip through the Big Bend
wheat belt OF eastern Washington, ].
A. Pease, head of the grain depart
ment of the Fisher FIGURING Mills Co.,
of Seattle, declared that he believes
the wheat crop of Washington this
year will exceed the yield of year
ago. The situation was made more
promising because OF a weeks heavy
rain, which gave the stands of grain
plenty OF moisture to last until harvest.
Mr.. Pease says that conditions for a
big yield of wheat are exceedingly
good, barring period of exceptionally
hot weather or heavy cloudbursts. He
found the best crop conditions in Lin
coin and Grant counties, where, while
the average yield will be Is bushels to
the acre, many OF the farmers who are
raising grain on a strictly scientific
basis will get as high as so bushels.
The average this year, he says, will be
Is bushels per acre through the State
generally, where last year it was not
more than IA bushels.

facts About tuberculosis

Consumption is a contagious disease.
II is probably never inherited. Chill
dren Of consumptive parents often be
come tuberculous because they have
lived in an infected house for years
and have inhaled and swallowed the
germs repeatedly. Parents often take
the disease from their children in the
same way. Yet it is not contracted by
merely coming in contact with con
sumptive, nor even by living in a
house with him, il he takes certain
precautions. Il requires an intimate
exposure to the disease, such as &C
ours when one sleeps with a con-
sumptive, uses the same drinking cup,
dishes or towel, or shares a living room
day after dag with a careless patient,
who spits on the floor OF coughs with
uncovered mouth.
No one is so strong or so healthy
that he may not at some time contract
tuberculosis, although robust health is
a most valuable safe guard. Probably
all Of US are able to withstand few
germs from time to time without be-
coming injected; they must be re-
ceiyed at certain times when the sys-
TEN is weakened by fatigue, privation
or intemperance, or by other diseases,
such as measles, grip or pneumonia.
But daily exposure is almost sure to
find US at some time in a condition
unable to resist it. Constant attention
to the details of prevention is there
fore necessary if We live or work with a
consumptive. Even an occasional ex-
posure to the infection has some dan

"HespeideS," on Apple City float, Con
tainS a Joker

Many people wondered what the sig
nifcance Of the word "Hesperides"
was in connection with the Wenatchee
float in the Pow Wow floral parade,
says a Spokane paper, 1t was ex-
planned BY the Wens,chee delegation
that the designation comes from the
cid Greek story to the effect that the
most perfect apples in the world were
grown in mysterious place to the far
west called the garden Of Hesperides.
These wonderful apples were guarded
by a dragon, which idea was carried
out on a float. But
The strange feature in connection
with the choice Of the name is that
according to the ancient Greek story,
the apples Of Hesperides typity the
bitter fruit Of worldly ambition, and
while they were most pleasant to look
upon. turned to ashes in the mouth.
In view of this, those not in the secret
might be left to wonder whether the
designation is intended as a comment
on Wenatchee apples Gin which case
it is not a very happy one), or whether
it is intended to contrast Wenatchee
apples with those of Hesperides to the
disparagement of the latter. The
answer is, of course. in the Wenatchee
fruit itself, which is just as good as it
looks-and it looks mighty good.

Fishback Warns State Against Limited
Coupon Policy

In his annual report, which is soon
to be issued, State Insurance Commits
sioner Fishback calls attention to the
form Of insurance policies against
which he warns the public. It is des-
ignated as the limited coupon pol
icy" variety, which the report will say,
appears to those not familiar with in
surance matters TO be a thorough ac-
cident policy when in fact it covers
only travel accidents. The report
says that the companies have fulfilled
the letter OF the law in all respects,
but that INSCRIPTIONS agents are ena-
bled to issue policies which do not
really insure against accident, though
the purchaser often thinks such to be
the case.
From now on in this state rider
FORMS attaching to insurance policies
must conform to fixed standards in the
respective cases. These riders are
special provisions relative to when and
under what various conditions policies
are valid, as for example, relative to
the wiring Of building property for
lighting or, heating purposes. This
feature is made mention OF in the re-
port.
The report also calls attention to the
provision Of the 1911 law not always
recognized, but which provides that
the company issuing and paying an in
surance policy shall be responsible for
the payment OF taxes on the property
in question, if it be burned after
March IS Of any year. This does not
mean that the company must pay the
taxes, but that it must do so unless ii
see that they are paid before settling
the loss on the policy. The law COW
ers delinquent taxes as well as those
just accrued for the year in question.

enough to be at Jack Princes

ing of the season.
Demon Flickenstein, of Denver, one
of the best riders in the country, Will
be here to compete in special match
races against Morty Graves and Tex
Richards They will take part in
races of two, three and five miles.
Flickenstein defeated Tex Richards
at Chattanooga in a One-mile event
and also set a new worlds record
for the distance. His daredevil rid
ing is bound to keep the fans on
edge.
A 20-mile marathon has also been
put on by the Motordrome manage
ment. All the riders will be on the
track at the same time and coTking
race should be witnessed.
1t is also probable that Arthur
Chappelle, the worlds champion, will
be here Tuesday. The great rider
has wired on that he will be in At
lanta by that time, but it is not known
yet whether he will compete in the
races. II he doesn't he'll surely take
part in the next set of races. All in

In a day more adapted to baseball

ward went into the game minus Hard
wick and Willetts, who are ineligible
to play on account of difficulty with
the college officials.
The work Of Maine was a disap-
pointment. Her backs fumbled the
ball time and again and the einterfer-
ence was poor. Main could do moth
ing with Harvard's line, but never
theless kept at it, losing the bail
three different times, not being able
to make the necessary distance.
Harvard showed midseasOn form,
the work of Mahan being brilliant,
while Brickley's work was more of
his usual high order.
Hitchcock and Storer both PLAYED
hard and fast, and O'Briens running
down punts was another bright spot.
Both teams played the old game,
not disclosing any of the new open
plays, except an occasional forward
