AN APARTMENT HOUSE FIRE.TRAP

There hardly any need of an investigation of
the for the fire in the Aldine apartment house
by which four lives were lost. The construction of
the building is explanation enough. The house was
re-trap And the marvel is that there were not more
victims
The apartment house attractive in appear
ance well located and tempting to people seeking this
kind of home. They believed that the construction
of such house had duly regarded safety from fire
and that it complied with the building laws They
did not know that the elevator shs #, around which
the stairway wound of wood, dried by years of
age and infammable, and that if fire should start
in the basement the elevator shaft would carry the
flames to the roof and spread them all the sleeping
apartments

Mexico in the event of the complete

ode to np Back Yard

thou unpromsng collection of and roots and clay
view thee with sinking hearts, there perhaps way
To make thee bloom? doubt it. Upon thy sterile breast
One crop alone thou yedest crop alone succeeds
The winds of Heaven plant it. Ts weeds and weeds and
weeds
Weeds of field and wayside Weeds of the woods and
street,
They flourish like the bay within thy eighty feet;
And when the ocean the wind of Winter roars,
bears upon its pinons weeds from foreign shores;
And scornng all the neghbors straight yard they fly
And raise brood of children that never, never die
All, no They're all immortal and blow it cold or hot
tbs all the same, both wild tame they'll grow in my
back lot.

was fifty-four years old she received
the appointment to the post of con.
sulting entomologist of the Royal
Agricultural Society of England, and
met with a railroad accident which
left her lame for the rest of her life.
But this accident did not in any way
whet the edge of her enthusiasm, and
for her work done after this date she
received more medals and honor than
were ever gained by a woman scien-

Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours
MAY II
Eleanor ormerod
Copyrighted

By MARY MARSHALL.

Eleanor Ornlerod was an English
woman who gained her name and
fame as an agriculturist. She was
born in 1928 in Worcestershire, and
at remarkably early age showed a
decided prediction for plant and in
sect life. Miss Ormerod's interest in
insects was not that of a purely
scientific nature. She was intensely
practical and when still girl con-
ceived the idea that she might turn
her knowledge into account in rid
ding the country of some of the most
troublesome pests.
One of the forms of life that came
under her closest scrutiny was what
she called the aviation rat" the
English sparrow, which works untold
damage to crops every season in
England. She also conducted a cru
SADIE against a fly which is particu-

The City's Problem Of the Unemployed.
From the Springfield Republican
In Canada, as in the United States,
complaint is being made of unemploy-
ment due to the fact that so many
men prefer to loaf in the cities than
labor on farms. Major Mcleod, in
charge of the Western service of the
Canadian Pacific uniformed police, re-
ports that in Winnipeg the immigra-
tion agent has places on the land for
nearly 1000 workers, but cannot in
duce people to leave the towns and
cities. THAT is the trouble in the
West he says. Largo numbers
prefer the cities, where they are idle
to a great extent, to taking $25 a
month and their board, with harvest
wages, whatever those are, in the fall,
They are foolish, of course, but how
can you remedy the natter" just
so. how can you remedy the matter
in free country? In Tudor Eng

Suppose.

From the Orange Co. (Cal) Plaindealer.
Let us suppose for an instant that
Teddy, instead of Woodrow. was at
the helm Of the ship of state at the
present moment, with his talent in
working order for hamboyant flub-
dub and riproaring rapine How long
should we have to wait for u dash on
the Mexican border and the opening
up of a war of conquest? Thousands
Of lives would be sacrificed. Millions
of dollars would be spent There
would be the usual session of graft
and glory, and the usual aftermath
of debt, disquiet and Generalization.
But what would the conqueror care
for the cost as he dabbled in the blood
of his victims? 1t would be all nuts
for Teddy and nowhere for the rest
of us-until payday.
