Lexington is threatened with
another street car strike. Three

days ago because they refused to
withdraw from the union, and a
strike is threatened unless these
men are reinstated. The strike
will affect not only the city lines
but the whole suburban system
radiating from Lexington and
will doubtless tie up the whole

car men struck and were out for

Good Roads in Hawaii.

The Louisville Courier-Journal
thinks that some of the ultra
conservative citizens of Ken
lucky should awaken to the need
of better roads. 1t quotes what
the engineers are doing in Ha-
waii in fine road construction,
and adds that the Kentucky
turnpikes were old when the
Hawaiian islands were ruled by
picturesque native monarchs who
dressed gorgeously in clothes
made of bird feathers. But
Hawaii" it continues, sis now
a progressive outlying addition
to the United States. 1t has,
among other advantages, a fair
mileage of frst-class macadam
roads, some Of them climbing
mountains of consid era b lie
height, and presenting such at
fractions to motorists that in
Honolulu, a city not as large as
Lexington, there are nearly as
many automobiles as in Louis
ville."
What the United States en-
gineers, physicians, sanitary ex-
perts and government officials
have done in the Hawaiian is
lands, the PHILIPPINES, Cuba and
Porto Rico will go into history as
among the very greatert of mod
ern achievements. Not only
have better roads been built, but
plaques have been banished by
the touch of sanitary measures,
the sick have been healed and
education and morality have
spread their elevating influence.
The same thing has been ac-
complished on the isthmus of
Panama, while the great canal
has been in the process of build
ing. What a calamity it would
be if a reactionary policy Of in
difference and neglect should be
adopted by an administration
unfriendly to those policies
which have accomplished so
much good. In numerous ways
it would be disastrous, and it
reflect greatly upon the wisdom
and humanitarian impulses of
this powerful country. Chron-

A Delightful Visit.

The editor was the fortunate
recipient of an invitation to visit
the hospitable home of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. NJ. Maxey, of Yocum,
last week, and to say that we
accepted it and enjoyed every
moment of the time would be
putting it very mild. DR.. and
Mrs. C.N. Maxey, of Cincinnati,
had come back for a few weeks
visit with homefolks; Mr.. and
Mrs. G. G. Maxey, and two sons,
Herbert and Curtis, of West Lib

a veritable reunion, not exactly
a family reunion but Of friends

j. M. Maxey insisted on calling

ing the fact that the grub" dis

seemed delighted to have us all
with her.
The men and boys of the COM

beating the brush for rabbit and

time did we set down to the ia

and was able to 60 to work and

Now the ending of this story
constitutes a very peculiar COIN
cidenCe.
The woman happened to read
in The Day Book the pitiful story
of Mrs. John Dram and her chill
dren.
So she packed some food and
things into a basket and took the
basket over to the little Dram
home at III North Delaware
place.
Mrs. Dram was very glad to
get the basket, and gave the wo-
man letter to the city editor of
The Day Book about it.
Now it happened that when the
woman came to the office of The
Day BookWith the letter, the edi-
tor and city editor of The Day
Book were much engaged with
Eugene T. Lies, superintendent
of the United Charities, and Wal
ter S. Brewster, member of the
board of directors and finance
committee of the same institu-
ton.
For Lies and Brewster also
had read the story Of the Grams
in The Day Book and had come
to show The Day Book where
in it was entirely wrong in the
conception of the United Chari-
ties, which the story of the
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-02-21

Grams and others, as presented
in The Day Book, gave to the
people.
Wherefore the appearance of
the woman with the letter from
Mrs. Dram was quite oppertune,
and gave an interesting illustra-
tien of the difference between
charity, plain, spontaneous, hui
man charity, and organized char
ity.
When The Day Book first in
vestigated the Dram case, it
found Mrs. Dram eating stale bis
cults. She was then under the
care of the United Charities, but
they may have been investigat-
ing the case or something.
When the woman, whose name
at her request, we are not giving,
heard of the case of Mrs. Dram,
she did not hesitate. She packed
a basket with what Mrs. Dram
described as food and stuff" and
took it straightway to Mrs.
Dram.
Superintendent Lies was in
troduced to the woman in The
Day Book office, and she told her
Story to him. He said he would
look, the matter up. The Day
Book will be glad to give the
United Charities side of this
story as soon as it has been
