More and more each year you deem 1t
a good policy to buy practical presents for
the ones you want to make happy during
Christmas time.
What do people wear more often than
SHOES? It's from morning until night.
SO why not buy them a nice dress shoe
of some kind or other and after Christmas
they may exchange them for any they like
insuring a proper fit. Try it this Christ

generation after that. the National
Government would have yet a larger
proportion. Washington will have
its million of inhabitants in time;
but they will not nearly all live with
in the District OF Columbia. Already
the city's expansion is making it slop
over into Maryland and Virginia. AS
it gets bigger and bigger, the ten
dency will be moro and more for the
inner sections to come into the Gov
ernment's direct ownership. and for
the Federal Government to have
forced upon it, under the Newman
plan, a constantly larger and larger
proportion Of the cost of running the
Government.
The Times does not believe that
the relations of the city and the
Federal Government confront any
such acute crisis as has been repre-
sented by extremists on both sides
Of the current argument. 1t does
not believe there is a very general
demand in Congress for the abolition
Of the half-and-half plan, and it does
not believe that fundamentally
strong case has been made in favor
of such abolition. Doubtless there
will be readiustments from time to
time; but in the long course of
events it will be made more and more
apparent that Washington must be
treated in special and unique way,
because it is unique among cities.
The elements here outlined, by
way of ditferentiating Washington
from self-governing towns, and by
way Of defining the real, full meas
ure of the Federal Governments re-
sponsibility to the people of this conf
rlunity, must all be considered in any
program of reforming the fiscal sit
uation. 1t is necessary that some
thing more than the municipal gov
ernment shall be provided the means
of living. The people of the city
must have a chance to live, too.

DEATH OF THE AUTHOR
OF SWEET MARIE"

Perhaps very few of those who
read the account of the death of "Cy''
Warman, 1.-The poet of the Rockies" !"
recalled the fact that he was the au-
thor of the song that caught the pop
ular fancy in larger measure than
any like production of the last quar-
ter century. Twenty years ago
everybody was whistling or singing
"Sweet Marie"
Considered as poetry, of course,
the words of "Sweet Marie" are
mere oversweetened sentiment, but
they betray, as do many other of
Warman's verses, his real affection
for the pure and the beautiful in
life and love. Thousands of Ameri-
cans will remember how in impress
sionable youth they themselves have
hummed the songs concluding lines:
Not the sunlight in your hair sweet
Marie.
Not because your face is fair, love, to
see;
But ycur soul so pure and sweet
Makes nv happiness complete,
Makes m" talter at your feet, sweet
Marie.
COMPARED with some of the often:
sive and suggestive slop that mas
querades now in the guise of popular
songs, Sweet Marie" deserves to be
ranked AS a classic.

MAKING A NEW DUBLIN.

Dublin's restoration to its former
status as the legislative capital of
Ireland is u be followed by a great
civic movement for the betterment of
conditions in the historic city. The
problem of better housing for the
poorer classes is being attacked as
problem for solution by the city,
with the municipal credit at its back.
British experience in London, Glas-
gov, Huddersfeld, Liverpool, and
many other cities, large and small,
has proved that this program is eff
fective and practicable. Dublin
awakening to realization that
new era confronts it, is determined to
live up to its opportunities.
The return of prosperity to Ire
land in the last few decades has been
one of the really notable social evo-
lutions of Europe. 1t began with
the passage of the land laws which
granted imperial credit, in the form
Of longtime, low-rate loans, to enable
the peasants to buy the lands they
farmed, compelling the nonresident
owners to sell at prices fixed by ap-
praisal. Dublin has not been by any
means untouched by the spirit of the
times, and it has made great prog
ress already. But the new Housing
and Town Planning organization
looks to operations on a greater
scale than has ever been undertaken
before. An American expert, John
Nolen, of Massachusetts, has been
enlisted to assist in formulating the
program, which looks to the general
Identification and Encouragement of
the city, and at the same time to ex-
tensive municipal housing invest
ments. All Ireland is plainly on the
point of a great reawakening, and
the capital is not to be outdone in
its efforts.

NOW IT'S PROGRESSIVE
MISSISSIPPI.

Mississippi's legislature has sub
mitted an initiative and referendum
amendment to the constitution,
which will he voted upon next No
vember. Judson King. secretary of
the National Popular Government
League, who has just returned from
Jackson, says it is the best initiative
and referendum amendment adopted
by any State legislature up to date.
Seven thousand i've hundred vot-
ers can propose a law or constitu-
tional amendment. and 5000 quail
fed may, by petition, require that an
act of the legislature be referred to
the people.
The vote in the legislature upon
submission cf the amendment was
astonishing. 1t is 4 difficult thing TO
amend the constitution of Mississippi
pi. A proposal must receive a two
thirds majority in each house, and
must get this majority three times in
each house, on thrc" separate legis-
lative days. 1t then has to receive a
majority of all votes cast in the cleo
tion for candidates in the election at
which it is submitted, and then has
to be placed in the constitution by an
act Of the succeeding legislature.
Nevertheless the amendment passed
the house by the following votes:
First day, "A to q; second day, II
TO 10; third day, Is to %. 1t passed
the senate as follows: First day, 81
to 6; second day, 81 TO 4 third day,
81 t. ..
The Progressive leaders got to-
gethcr ard organized the Peoples
Rule League of Mississippi, through
which they will carry OH an active
campaign TO secure adoption of the
amendment. This league counts
among its membership one-half of
the legislature II has a vigorous
leadership, composed of the rlen who
made the E.sht for the overthrow of
corporation ring rule" in Mississip-
pi. They are the men who placed
Vardaman in the Senate.

SPRING CROP CONDI-
TIONS.

The one slpremely important fac
tor in determination of business ten
Gencies and conditions in this coun-
try is the yield of the soil. Every
thing else depends more or less on
this paramount consideration.
Therefore it is highly gratifying
to know that at the beginning of the
crop season conditions are excellent.
1t must be borne in mind that winter
wheat and rye have been in the
ground since early autumn; they
have passed through two-thirds of the
period required for making the crop.
The report on their condition at this
time is therefore highly significant.
The Government crop reporting
service finds that on April l the av-
erage condition of winter wheat was
95.6 per cent. This is 10 per cent
higher than the average condition on
that date for the last ten years. 1t
is higher than the condition on that
oaCe IN any cne year OF the last ten.
Rye does not rGake so good
showing; but it reports an average
condition of 91.3 per cent, against a
ten-year average of S9.2 per cent.
The striking statement is made that,
on the basis Of acreage and condi-
tions of the growing crop, present in
dications point to probable yield of
649,00O,000 bushels of winter wheat,
gain of over 1OG,0OO,OOO from the
big crop of last year, and almost
250,00O,000 over the 1912 crop.
The persistence Of pessimistic SEN
timent about national business is 60
ing to be good deal discouraged by
a few reports of this kind.

of the chalk, and the chalk reap
pears above it at that height to the
east. Thus it is seen that on the west
side of the Jordan valley the rocks
have slipped down 1000 feet, thus
forming a natural barrier to protect
Judea from the incursion of armies
from the east. while the rapid rise
from the Mediterranean equally pro-
tCcts ii from the west. On the other
hand the cross valley of Esdraelon,
leading from Mt. Carmel to the Jor-
can. is only 200 feet above the Medi-
terrancan sea, affording a natural
line of passage for the Egyptian and
Assyrian armies that went out to at
tack each other. thus leaving Jeru-
salem at one side in a position of
almost complete safety When Ma
roleon was at Acre he was asked
why he did not capture Jerusa EN-.
He replied: Its capture would be
of no military significance" Thus
the great geological movements in
the early age of the world had pre-
pared just such an isolated region as
Judea was for the long development
of sacred history.
The majesty and the extent OF
these geological movements can be
perceived Cnly when one notes that
the depressed valley of the Jordan
and the Dead sea is only a portion
OF deep creyasse in the earth's
crust which extends for thousands
of miles: indeed, from the mouth
of the Orontes river in Syria south
ward between the Lebanon and Anti
l.ebanCr mountains. and past the
Dead sea into the Gulf of Ak
faba. ard through the Red
sta. erdinS only in the lake re-
gionS of Central Africa. When one
reads of the earthquakes which ac-
'omp;I.y slight changes of level
throughout this region at the pres
ent time he is overwhelmed with the
thought OF the earthquakes that
must have accompanied the more
rapid changes of level that took
place lr the forming of this crevasse
GurinS early geological ages.
