YOUTHS DEBT.
When In the pretty wood
The iarches spurfie red for the years

Then, I'm mems moving blood.
Sweet April does set frolic fire a-burn-
Ing.
Hut now, since the trees stand
Naked and deep asleep. yet natheless

For the springs kindIinE hand,
Let youth go forth, and set the woods

Such quick fire In In youth
tAnd this youth knows, having no other

That where 1t moves. In truth.
Its touch shall set the dead earth's

So let youth thank the sweet year for
his turning.
And newly every day
Go forth. go forth. to est the woods

IMPROVED ROADS SAVE.

1t is estimated by the Office of
Public Roads of the Department of
Agriculture that about ten per cent
Of the roads in the United States are
improved
If twenty per cent of the public
highways were unprecedented high
way being selected and improved with
view to the proportionate traffic
upon it-a high degree of efficiency
in highway transportation would be
reached.
1t is figured that millions of dollars
could be be saved annually in the
transportation of crops, the wear and
tear on wagons and vehicles. and in
the minimizing of the waste in truck
farming. Where roads are bad, the
farmers frequently find it impossible
to get their products to the shipping
points. and thus perishable products

FRIEDMAN MUST MAKE GOOD

Doubt and disputed claims and as
sertions must soon give place to GER
tainties in respect to the Friedman
cure for tuberculosis. The storm
raging about the Berlin physicians

which will speedily force termina-

friedman must give and urge the
fullest publicity or stand discredited.
He must prove his case or lose his
and whatever prestige he
has gained by the widely heralded
claims made in his behalf.
If he has placed his remedy in the
hands of eminent authorities chosen
by the German government, they will
soon tell the world exactly what to
hope for or what to expect. If he has
taken no such step he will shortly find
lit necessary to do so or see himself
everywhere discredited.
| No man can long evade or befog
such an issue as DR.. Friedman has

mankind. The standards of his pro-

BRYAN ON PERSONAL LIBERTY

If you show me man who drinks
to excess. who spends money getting
drunk that belongs to his children
and his family, and who fills himself
up with liquor and goes home to make
his home hell. l tell you that man
has forfeited his right to drink, and
society has right to restrain him
| will give you another case. If a
man, under pretense that he is de-
Tending his right to drink, insists on
establishing a saloon and in running
it in such a way that it is a menace to
society, that it is corrupting place !;
runs 1t in such a manner that 1t be-
fouls the neighborhood and leopard
ICES the community, l say that when
the man insists not merely on the
right to drink, but the right to drink
in that saloon, and at all hours and
under all circumstances, he is asking
for the enforcement of his rights In
such a way that he is infringing upon
the rights of others, and he has nc
right to ask it, and it ought not to be
allowed
I give you these two illustrations
There are many more. I simply give
them to you that you may see that
the man who talks about personal
liberty has something more to do than
to get up and talk about it. He must
be prepared to come down and liz
black and white outline what-he re-
CARDS as within the limitsof his per
sonal liberty, and tsEsn you have {
right to deci6e whether he has gon,
too far invades your rights.--Willian

CHICAGO'S PROBLEMS.

Where ever you are you have to
light reactionaries If you are in a
small city like Hammond you have to
keep fighting to preserve your streets
from conflscation and if you are in
a big city like Chicago you have to
fight to prevent the railroads from
ignoring your "city plan
Chicago today has grappled with
the Pennsylvania railroad on the mat
ter of the location of the new S35,-
100000 Union station. The railroad
officials want to get right down town
with their terminals and cut the city
/ of Chicago to pieces just as 1t has al
ways ben cut up by railroad yards and
tracks.
Some of the big broad far-seeing
men of Chicago, the men who are
planning for city of 10000, 900 peo-
pie instead of 100000 want the
railroad to recede to Twelfth street
where the Illinois Central, Western
Indiana and Grand Contra, stations
are to be located.
The loop will then be extended to
Twelfth street and Chicago's business
district may expand, on both the east
and the west sides of the river, over
two or three times as much territory.
The withdrawal of the railroad
terminals to Twelfth street is neces-
sary to the contamination of this
plan. A civic center over ON the
west side is another feature of this
plan. In fact the whole Chicago plan
is involved in this attempt of the
Pennsylvania railroad to sneak down
town with it's terminal.
| Those who are adhering to the
ideals of the Chicago plan are fighting
the move on the part of the railroad
They are men of resource and ability
and the chances are that they will
gain their ends providing the city oil
lChicago backs them up.
After its fight for the preservation
of Calumet avenue the people o.
Hammond will be interested in tn,
colossal fight of the Chicago plar
commission against the Pennsylvania

SCHOOL ALL THE YEAR ROUND

Several years ago the idea of school
or college all the year round would
have been holly decried; today it is
an established fact in number of
educational institutions, public and
private. 1t is not merely that the
summer session has been widely in
troduced, but the summer work. from
being purely voluntary and separate
affair, has come in some instances to
be an integral part of the years
work, according to reports received
at the United States Bureau of Edu-
cation.
It is claimed by the advocates of
the alf-year plan for public schools
In the large cities that the children
are healthier and happier in school
than on the streets. 1t is further
urged that by taking advantage of an
optional summer term children who
are compelled to leave school at an
early age will be able to advance
further in the grades than at present
Backward pupils will also have an op
portunity to make up back work. bu
this has always been more or less
feature of summer sessions.
In the case of the higher institu
tions, particularly the technica
schools, the new movement for all
year work is undoubtedly part of tn
nationwide demand for semitic eff
cheney that is making itself felt ii
every phase of American life. TIL
feeling is that education, especially Q
an advanced character, Is not child
play alone, but serious business, an
should approximate the conditions q
efficient business.

Heart toHear

ECONOMY OF LIFE.
BY JAMES A. EDGERTON


In every field we are teaching and
practicing economy except one. and
that is the most important of all.
We eliminate waste in manufacture
ing. but we do not eliminate waste of
human beings.
We teach conservation of everything
but life.
Recently Chicago park policeman
saw a ragged. hatless. coatless and al
most shoeless small boy watching .
squirrel burying peanuts. s-
What's your name?" queried the
policeman.
Bernard Rogers sobbed the boy.

peanut over by that tree. Can ! have

Most policemen have hearts. and this
one was no exception. He bought the
boy a bag of peanuts. which were eat
en- ravenously. He then took him
home and afterward reported that
| there was not bite to eat in the
| house.
| This lad. if he lives. will be future
| citizen Aside from the brutal tnhu-
| mainly of allowing him to starve in q
| land OF abundance think of the unwis.
! dom of it from public standpoint
! The pity of it LIS that his is only one
case out OF multitude.
| OF those who survive many are
| stunted IN mind and body. Others are
criminals, having learned to steal out
| of their dire necessity. Stll others
are filed with hatred against society
And who can blame them?
| Is it not time to conserve the chill
| dren?
This wonderful age OF progress has
transformed the physical world. Car
| 1t not do something for the human
| world?
Here is another case in point:
Recently the factory commission oil
the state of New York examined Chile
labor conditions. It found tots of ter
years working from twelve to sixteer
hours day in cannery sheds and 9th
ers even younger wearing out theil
baby lives in tenement work.
From the mere cold. economic stand
point can we not eliminate this vast
of our future men and women?
Fathers and mothers, these iittl'
ones are like your own. with the SAM
tender bodies, the same baby faces
the same innocent ways.
How dare we look our own children
in the eyes so long as we participate
J In the sins of society against thes
other children?
II How dare we call ourselves civilize'
/ in the midst of such conditions?
; How dare We?
