upon waterville Tuesday. Despite the
numbers that were on the fair grounds
the city proper showed the indications
of an increased population all day.
Many extra cars were constantly COM

sion of heavy teams bearing their
loads In the direction of the fair
grounds, and the large number of
pedestrians on the streets announced
the arrival of the 18th Central Maine

have been known to Waterville were
not by any means equalled by Tues

that il was the first day of the fair,
and, considering this, there are good

afternoon around 4.30 o'clock. The pole

success and the waiting cars were per-
mitted to continue on their way.

A Definite City Plan

The average American city might join in the
refrain, 81 don't know where Pm going, but I'm
on the way"
Johns Gospel starts out Tin present day Eng
lsh), Now, to begin with, the idea," or
'plan." That is good philosophy. Everything
worth while does the same. Before a house is
erected with brick and stone and wood it is first
built as plan in some persons mind; before a
picture is painted it is first conceived in the
artists soul; before suit of clothes is made,
measurements first taken and a pattern
worked out; before great industry gets under
way, it's promoters work out the most definite
possible plan. Nobody can get anywhere who
hasn't goal to go to. A man can't arrive when
he is going nowhere.
Everybody admits all this until he comes to
the matter Of the city. Then he makes up his
mind town can get along without a PLAN 1t
needs no chart no compass, no goal, no program
like Topsy it 'sJast grows" &
In truth this has always been true of our cit
les. They fit into} their little geographic mould
in just the way water fits into the and de-
pressions Of vases While no individual would

dream of running his own business in the same
planless, aimless fashion, individuals acting as
community do that very thing. If street
takes notion to sprout in given direction 1t
sprouts if an alley pours across some vacant
field where no house yet has the courage to go,
nobody says it nay; if sewers and streetcar lines
20 wandering about according to their own sweet
will they have the privilege.
A town must grow, of course, but it should
grow as a garden and not as a weed patch. 1t
must be broken in, trained and made to wear
harness. It ought to have plan to grow by.
Every progressive city is now turning it's
attention to town planning. That is accepted as
integral part of every up-to-date municipal
program. A plan makes city more beautiful,
saves it much needless expense, adapts each part
to every other part, preserves equilibrium of
functions and secures the maximum result for
the minimum expenditure.
Where a city administration has definite
plan worked out it is able to lay out its parks
where they will be most accessible to the great
est number; it can plan streets where streets
really will be needed and not to accommodate
real estate plungers; it knows where the sewers
should go in order to the largest territories
it is able to lay out it's alleys to good advantage
it's street-cars will find their way to the resi-
dence districts and not to barren pats is often
the case; and it can make of itself one carefully
laid out symmetrically developed, naturally beau
titled community.
Town planning has played no small part in
those remarkable European cities which have
come to serve as models of all a city should be
and the time is speedily coming when planless
city will not be able to hold its own in the inevi
table competition between towns.
