PART Of ADAMS SYSTEM.
Control Acquired After Years of
Negotiation and Combined With
PENNSYLVANIA Lines.

Arrangements will be concluded by
or before Tomorrow whereby the
Adams Express Company. which al
ready handles all the express business
on the Pennsylvania Lines. will acquire
control OF tho Long Island Express
Company. now operated by the Long
Island Railroad. q subsidiary Of the
Pennsylvania.
Nearly quarter OF century ago
the Adams began trying to acquire the
valuable express business OF the Long
Island Railroad. BY reason OF its con-
troll by the Long Island Railroad the
Long Island Express Company has tor
years held n practical monopoly OF all
express business on Long Island, ex-
cept Brooklyn and Queens The COM
pany had been wonderfully prosperous,
It's milk. egg and vegetable business IN
creasing IN volume each year.
The parcel post made big inroads in
the business done by the Long Island
Express Company. II Is said II was a
desire TO centralize the express bus!-
ness OF tho entire Pennsylvania system
that finally induced the Long Island
Railroad management to resume ne
gotiations with the Adams Express
Company.

Til. D;vorce Problem.

We noted an egregious proof-reading
bIun6er in our news report of Judge
Connolly's declaration as to changing
allegations in divorce libels. We wish
our report of zone divorce to every 600
marriages. were true. Unfortunately
we fear the judge said "one to ana
rs one-hundreths," which places Maine
where it should be ashamed of itself.
1t shows how slippery is the hill OF I'M
morality, and how rapidly and indiffer-
emily the populace slides down, when
il once permits itself to look for ex-
cuses to slide.
We agree absolutely with Judge Con-
molly and we wish all the court )ustlces
would rise up and point out not only
the evil it's insidious growth and hoid'
hut the remedy 1t might be wonder
ed at that so many people become IA
miliar with the holes in the legal hedge.
The ease with which the dissatisfied
and discontented, the tickle and the
affinity hunters, accomplish their de-
sires through the courts is enough TO
make the angels gasp and turn aside.
But who is to blame? How much truth
does the following from Wells Frank
lin, New York, contain:
In a great many cases divorce Is
brought about by an unscrupulous
lawyer.
"A woman will go to a lawyer with
cut evidence; were she to go to a judge
her domestic difficulty would undoubt-
edly be Strengthened out without d.
vorce.
Crooked lawyers will not stop at
ANYTHING, especially if the client is
suing a rich defendant. Lawyers often
magnify and distort facts in the mind
of their client to such point that
marriage is often broken off, whereas
if sound advice were given the tangle
could have been Strengthened out.
We discovered that the right devel-
opment of boys and girls comes by Sc
rious thought and toll We are con-
WINGED that 1t is better to form than to
reform; that attention should be given
to the cause. Judges from the bench
have reprimanded lawyers severely on
divorce cases, where evidence has
been manufactured, and where there is
no real cause for decree. Patience is
a large factor in settling domestic diff
ficulty. When the lawyer takes the
case he is prone to develop an ant hill
into a mountain. with disastrous re-
suits for all concerned"

the city of Houston, Tex, secured a
bond issue of s50o.o 600 for charging the
yards of several of it's old schools. The
city of Galveston has recently voted a
bond issue of 100000 for the same pur-
pose"
Whether in city or country, Mr.. Cur
It's considers ample school playground
vital necessity. City children need a
good-sized school yard because there
is no other place to play. Country chill
dren need large yard because at
home there is no one to play with, ex-
cept IN the simplest games for little
children" He points out that larger
school grounds are demanded, not only
for the sake of organized play, which
has come to have a recognized value IN
education, but also for school garden
ing, open-air classes, physical training,
and other activities that have made the
schooI-yard nearly as important as the
classroom in the conduct of modern
school,"

Farmers Wives" Again.

About the most abject apology for a
true disciple of Mephistopheles is the
man caught with the goods trying to
prove an alibi. Here is pathetic
specimen from Saturdays news dis
patches, dated at Atlantic City, N. J.
I'm discussing at their annual con-
vention here today the high price of
eggs, members of the American Ware
house Mems Association placed some of
the blame at the door of farmers wives,
who mostly have charge of the poultry.
IT was declared that many of the wives
of the farmers do not know the proper
method of caring for and handling
eggs, and further do not realize the ne
cessity of promptly gathering and
shipping them"
Just imagine an American house
wife Ito say nothing Of those in the
business of poultry raising for profit
allowing 40-cents-a-dozen eggs lying
around awaiting decay or a fall in
prices! Can you picture Maine farm
woman taking chances on eggs at four
cents apiece?
Why, we can remember how father
used to fail to find hidden" nests
around the hay NOW in winter until
after the eggs had frozen and cracked,
so we could have them to eat at home
and eggs in those days were only
eight cents dozen. But that was in
the old days when few hens were kept
and eggs were plenty. That was be-
fore the days of breeds" and STRAINS"
and "hatchers" and breeders" and
"fanciers" and hen shows. There were
no salt box coops in every back yard
Of the cities to supply the family lard
er and reduce the cost of living. A
shortage then of 24o,00o.0 900 eggs, as now
reported by the warehousemen, would
have wiped every hens egg off the
earth and sunk the product to come by
one hundred millions and then some.
The most surprising thing to us in
recent years has been the patience
with which the people have tolerated
he warehouse curse. II Carrie Nation

The School Playground.

How large is your school playground?
Henry S. Curtis, in bulletin just is
sued by the United States Bureau OF
Education, declares that every city
school building should have at least
one full block of ground. whether the
block is the usual city block of two or
three acres, or one of 10 acres, as is
Salt Lake, Utah. The high school
needs at least 10 acres, he asserts. AS
for the country school, it ought never
to have less than acres of play space,
and could profitably make use of 10
acres provided the grass is kept now
cd.
Mr.. Curtis shows that our schools
have. in general. had very, inadequate
wards. During the past 10 years, how
ever. with the development of the play
movement, there has come an increas-
ed demand for ground space around
school buildings. The State boards OF
education in Pennsylvania and Virgin
la will not approve plans for new
school buildings that do not provide for
adequate Fairgrounds. In Little Rock,
Ark, the standard of one full block to
a school has been carried out with ev-
cry one of the schools for white chill
c1ren. All but one or two or the
schools in Pueblo, Colo, have a full
block. In San Angelo, Tex, every
school but one has two blocks at least,
and two have 10 acres Of play space.
The first school built in Gary, Ind,
had acres of playground. the Sec
ond had 4. the third II, and lot re-
Gently purchased contains 20 acres.
There is a very strong sentiment
all over the country for larger school
grounds" Mr.. Curtis fnds, land yards
are being augmented in many cities
where there is an opportunity to pur-
chase adjoining pieces Of land at prices
that are not prohibitive. Cities are Of
ten paying as much as $4,000 or more
per acre for such land. Two years ago

The aPatento Possibilities.

The remarkable effect of carnotite
thus described by a Western paper;
"One peculiar effect Of the presence of
uranium oxide is observed in the men
who work on the ground. The very air
appears to be radioactive to a great
degree. No man working on the
ground has ever been known to have
rheumatism, even though he had been
previously subject to it in greater or
less degree. The ore and atmosphere
combined seem also to have benefic-
