Mrs. Cranes Visit
It was nice to have Mrs Caroline Bartlett Crane

1t was nice to have Mrs. Caroline Bartlett Crane
here.
We hope she will come often, but after all it
looks as if Controller Meads was right when he
said the taxpayers money should not be paid for
bringing her here
Mrs. Crane has raped many things in Tacoma,
but she has not raped anything that has not al
ready been recognized by public officials and pr
yate citizens too as needing attention. She COM
mended the schools and the city hospital, and we
already knew they were the best to be found. She
recommended municipal abbatoir, but city Of
ficials have been talking of this themselves for
months, and in fact the council has had legislation
in contemplation on the very subject.
Mrs. Crane is big woman. She is said to be
Americas ''best municipal housekeeper" which
means she is well posted on municipal problems,
but her appearance here has not 'shown up Ia
coma as a backwoods town that had no ideas OF
the latest things in municipal development.
In fact Mrs Crane had to scrape around pretty
lively to find something to attack OF course she
could hammer our old city jail. But every COM
missioner and every policeman and every private
board and every citizen who ever saw it has done
that before. 1t is still there because of combin-
alton of conditions. The people really are adj
vanced in thought to the point where they do not
believe in building new Jail. They want a farm
or some place where prisoners work out their
salvation rather than be cooped behind steel and
concrete walls. And they have been trying to
evolve this more modern scheme Of handling pris-
oners using the old Jail makeshift while they
are getting to the better way.
If Mrs. Crane had shown how to do the latter
thing and put the city on the way to its accom-
plishment it would have been worth while.
The appearance of Mrs. Crane in Tacoma, in
fact, has just demonstrated that Tacoma is lead
ing along the lines of thought she has been pur-
suing and not following Mrs. Crane has not real
ly opened any new avenues of endeavor to the city
but she has given good chance to pat our
selves on the back.

The recent death of two rich leaders of society
in New York in an automobile collision with fast
train on unguarded grade crossing on Long
Island promises to have more effect toward abol-
ishing such death traps than scores of humber
killings Of which the world has heard little.
For tragedy in their own circle brings home
to the directors of our railroads the peril in the
operation of swift trains at grades across busily
travelled intersecting highways.
Yet life not more sweet to S. Osgood Pell
and William Laimbeer, multimillionaire brokers,
than to Mike O'Toole, hodcarrier, and Felix LIE
whisky, pack peddler, run down by the iron horse
quite as ruthlessly some months before
And while Pell and Laimbeer will be mourned in
their fine homes no doubt as keenly as OToole and
Levinsky in humber abodes there will be this diff
ference: In the fine homes the visitation of the
angel Of death will not take from any inmate a
crust of bread, but in the humber abodes, to sor
row will be added the frightful problem of non
support for the wives and orphaned children.
Yes, life is sweet; all life. Therefore let's be
more careful how we protect it.

OF the Century Opera Company.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-For SO
cents a week, Mr.. Small Salary
and his wife may next winter hear
all the famous operas, sung in
one of the finest opera houses in
the world, by artists second only
to those of the Metropolitan and
a few European houses.
Mr.. Small Salary may reserve
his seats at the beginning of the
season by paying half the sea-
sons total In advance. For Is
cent seats, this will be $3.50, as
there are to be eighteen weeks.
He will pay the other half Janu-
airy IA. His weekly seats will be
his own. sacred, private property,
Just as much as the Mr.. Large In
comes two-in-the- aisle, down at
the Metropolitan, at $12 per even
ing.
All this because several public
spirited members of the City club,
a civic welfare organization, de-
cided a year ago that New York
ought to have grand opera at
prices within the reach Of the
masses. A conference was had
with the big men of the Metro
politan Opera house. They offer
ed their cooperation. The Met
ropolitan's scale is from IS down
to $3.50 and the demand for the
limited number of 81 and $50
seats has for many seasons far ex-
ceeded the supply.
So the Metropolitan directors
were for popular-priced opera,
figuring that it would little more
than take care of their overflow.
A company was formed, with a
directorate composed of several of
New York's richest and most in
fluential men. Otto H. Kahn,
head of the Metropolitan board,

1t is easy to mutter and to blame
The manner the rich man plays the game.
1t fs easy enough to rage and rail-
Declaring the magnates should be In jail
But how do YOU act In your own small trade?
Don't you ever doctor your deals shade?
Don't you ever gather a cent two
In a manner that isn't quite square and true?
Don't you ever juggle the cards a bit
When you re sure there IL no aware of it?
Is there never doubtful trick you've planned
And when you have gotten the upper hand
Is there never a time you've used that might
To crush a victim who cannot fight?
1t Is easy to growi at the man of pef,
But-how do you play the game yourself?
