TWO SISTERS.

The marriage Of plain, modest, IN
assuming woman in New York today
is creating more interest throughout
this country and Europe than would
the marriage Of the most exalted
titled dame in the world
Helen Gould has won the affection
Of thousands and the admiration of ev-
cry one who knows of her public ser
vice and good deeds. From every quar-
ter of this broad land, not only have
gifts been sent, but, what is really
more precious than gold and gems. the
heartfelt best wishes and prayers for
her happiness will arise like holy in
cense from humble homes.
Helen Gould is an American queen,
made so, not by riches, but by the
benevolence and philanthropy of her
character. Sailors and soldiers, COM
munities and societies, young men and
maidens, statesmen and sages do her
homage. She bears the certificate of
royalty signed by the thousands bless
ed by the humanitarian impulses of her
nature and acts which have brought
relief from suffering and opportunities
for physical. mental and spiritual
growth and happiness.
Her sister. a duchess, was a guest
at the wedding. The ducal coronet of
Anna Gould pales into insignif-
canoe in the presence of the diadem
of this American queen. The coronet
is soiled by a record of wasted wealth
and wasted opportunities. She does
not possess public admiration. much
less public affection. Hospitals.
churches, railroad Young Mems
Christian associations, homes for
invalid sailors, Libraries for sold
iers' posts and soldiers homes, and
other gifts of love for humanity arise
all over our land to call her
sister, who is the bride. Of To-Day,
blessed among women Few, il
any, outside of her family, give the
French duchess more than a passing
thought.
The lives of these sisters, the Amer.
lean queen and the French duchess

other to crafty selfish ambition fol-

WHAT THE INTERURBAN DOES
FOR ROCK ISLAND.

In view Of the discussion that has de-
veIoped every time the street car quas-
ton has come up in Rock Island, OF

Rock Island Southern up town, It is
interesting to note that a record kept

Der an average of % a day are from
Andalusia and other points down the
river by way of the bus line connect
inF with the Southern at the new sta

This showing teaches a two-fold les-
son: first, that the people in the south
end Of the county and from Mercer coun-
~ have for years been waiting for the
means of transportation 10 get into
Rock Island, and. secondly. that the
daily average might be easily doubled
II the interurban cars were brought
into the business center, thus doing
away with delay and transfer at the
foot of Fourth avenue.
The subject is one to which Rock Is

ing phase Of the movement for wider
use of the school plant
Mr.. Perry finds that in A. of the 1O1
cities social centers were directed by
paid workers. New York had IS su On
centers and Chicago 16, while Phila-
delphia, Boston, Columbus, Detroit,
Jersey City. Louisville, Rochester and
Trenton are also among the cities in
cluded in this list There is wide vari-
alton in the length of the season, from
five to six weeks in some localities to
the full school term in others In
fact, little uniformity prevails as TO
what constitutes a social center. Mr..
Perry presents in the report a tenta-
tive definition OF a social center as
follows: "A community may be said
to have a school house social center
il one Of its school buildings is thrown
open 10 the public on one or more fixed
nights a week for at least u weeks a
year. for activities of a social, recrea-
/ tiOnal, or civic character, regularly di-
rected by one or more trained leaders" !"
The report also presents data on
| the growing use Of school buildings
/ for political meetings. In Cleveland,
Ohio. meetings were held in the schools
to discuss the new constitutional pro-
visions that were before the people
/ for adoption.
In jersey City the public schools
were opened to partisan political meet
ings with gratifying results; eight
public school auditoriums in New
York City were also opened for the
same purpose. and in Chicago the as
sembly halls were employed for polit-
ical rallies and proved a distinctly
popular innovation
