the committee in charge of the "all-for-
glory" street runs now being held weekly
by the West Branch Y. NJ. G. A., under
the sanction of the Middle Atlantic Asso-
citation. TO change the day OF the rum that
the officials have decided to stage the
race herafter on Tuesday night instead of
Friday. Next Tuesday the third weekly
contest will be held over the 1ls-mIle
course from 52d and sansom streets.
The reason for tho change Is because
many star athletes are unable to conpete
Friday, the day before the big open con-
tests which are now weekly features.
Next Tuesdays run will likely be a
record-maker.

CITY FAIRGROUNDS.

Most of the crimes in cities are
committed during the leisure hours.
The one great unworked mine OF
power in community is the leisure
hour"
This Is what Charles II. Weller, sec
rotary Of Playground and Recreation,
association of America, told the st.
Paul council recently, in his plea for
organized use and direction of the
leisure time of people in the cities.
Weller told of 342 cities that have
supervised Fairgrounds under 6,3lS
paid leaders at an expenditure or
$S,C0O,O@ year. He said there are
so cities in the United States that
have year-around recreation systems
under supervisors.
Then Weller told the council of the
work OF his association in sending
to city a competent playground and
recreation organizer, who would
bring to bear on the problem the
combined experience Of the 342 cities,
study the situation in each city. MAP
out a complete plan and work to put
the community behind the program
birmingham, although in poor con-
dition, financially" remarked Weller,

salaries of It's city officials and ex-

while to boil down two policemen

cause it was a much cheaper way to
keep the peace" -

CHOLERA AND THE WAR.

Epidemics Of cholera are reported
to be threatening the various armies,
especially those engaged on the Russo
Austrian frontier. But it will be re-
membered that even in the normal
state of affairs cases Of Asiatic chol-
era in this neighborhood are not I'M
usual. Cholera is a disease whose
spread is dependent largely on in
fected drinking water and carriers,
apparently healthy. So far as is
known. infection occurs only whel
the germ is swallowed 1t seems
probable that in addition to water as
a source of infection. food when ex-
posed may become contaminated
through the agency of flies. Unless
there are efficient sanitary precau
tions water supplies are likely to be-
come infected Therefore, in the pas
sage of large bodies of troops, when
sanitation cannot be perfect, an c
break of this disease may be ex.
pected. The cholera organism is es.
pecially sensitive to drying and there
seems to be doubt whether or not
it is able to multiply outside OF the
body in impure water. In the recent
Ealkan war cholera was reported in
many places and many cases occurred
but the disease never became cpl
demic With the assistance of the
highly efficient sanitary services of
modern armies, widespread epidem-
les of such diseases may be pre-
vented. 1t has been suggested that
the coming of winter may aid in pre-
venting the spread Of cholera. How
ever, the Journal OF the American
Medical Association thinks that the
increased moisture and seepage of
surface water carrying communicating
material as we'll as the closer contact
of human beings engendered by the
winter yeason make infection still
more likely. As an aid to protection,
active immunization of men with the
Haffkine vaccine may be practiced.
Possibly conditions in this war will
be the means Of determining still
more exactly the status of this pro-
tective measure.

FALSE IMPRESSION.

ARTICLES going out under the sigma.
'ure OF state official tend to create
a false impression relative to the
finances of the state. The present
controversy over the tax levy does
not Indicate that the state finances
are in bad shape" as misleading
headline in the Fargo Courier-Ae w,
suggests.
The nub of the whole situation is
this: The state board Of euualiza,
ton had the iirmness to keep the
levy within the four-mill constitutions
al limit. Naturally this lessons funds
available for special appropriations.
That there should be some conru.
sion while the state is adjusting it's
expenditures to the reduced levy is
natural. 1t does not follow. as the
Fargo paper says, that the finances
Of the state are in bad shape" Tho
opposite is true. The present step
aims to put those finances in good
shape, making expenditures conform
to the biennial income.
A number of the papers of the
state are being victimized daily by
partisan articles sent out from the
state capital for a purpose.
Some of the state officials believe
that their highest duty is that of a
publicity agent for themselves rather
than that OF serving the public.
Governor Hanna and the other
members of the board of equalization

act in keeping the levy within the
four-mill limit. t-t
The state will have to trim it's en-
penditures to meet this situation.
There is nothing mysterious about
this. SD. .
The state is not bankrupt. 1t will
have enough for all legitimate needs,
but it means that some of the frills
will he trimmed which have shot the
tax levy for years above that au'
thorized by law.
This, of course, will meet with the
endorsement Of the tax payers. State
officials who bemoal situation
which compels them to trim their
own expenditures. put themselves III

But the tax payer reioices.

PRAISE FOR THE EMDEN

Until the Emden startled the world
there was no craft-not since the Ala
bama&that created such havoc with
the commerce on the high seas. The
Emden takes it's place in history with
the plucky Alabama.
There was general satisfaction
when the news told of the safety of
the Emden's captain. under whose d.
rection this craft has lodged the com
bined nayies of the allies.
For the bravery Of the crew there
Is nothing but praise. Even her cap
tors. the British sailors with admira-
ton characteristic of seamen, ac
corded her honor due for the plucky
fight and the wonderful maneuvers
preceding it.
Her captain is modern Paul
Jones.
