A WELL PLANNED CIVIC CENTER.
ately, while in others the development
of an ella borate system is beyond their
financial resources.
In every case, however, 1t is possible
to adopt plan which may, little by
little, be carried into execution with
ultimately the greatest beneficial re-
suits.
Not only motives of civic pride and
patriotism 80 to make the civic center
desirable, but also the strongest mo-
tives of social and municipal economy
and efficiency.
A civic center should contain, except
in cities of large size where more than
one center is required the municipal
and federal buildings, such as the city
hall, courthouse, hall of records, post
office, federal court building and vari
Gus city departmental buildings.
The civic center should, of course,
have a central location and be readily
accessible from all parts Of the city
and surrounding suburban districts.
Several main arteries of traffic should
radiate from the civic center. making
it the center of the citys street plan,
the keystone in the arch of its design.
A civic center of large extent, in ad
dition to its artistic and psychological
effect, is of great value as place for
the assembling of large numbers of
people on great public occasions. 1t is
a central point for the reviewing of pa
rades and for the reception of noted
visitors to the city. The mistake most
likely to be made in planning a civic
center is to make it too small in area.
The expense of large center, though
usually very great, is one that should
be incurred as early as practicable in
the existence of the city, for as the
value of the ground increases constant
ly it is an investment which never de-
preciates in value. 1t is a matter of
Improvements to purchase the neces.
sary land and lease it until the time
comes for the actual rebuilding, ten or
twenty years later.
The civic center should be so placed
as to be easily accessible to all parts of
the city, and if necessary new avenues
and streets should be cut through to af.
ford the proper approach. 1t should be
conveniently placed with reference to
transportation lines, but no transporta
ton line should penetrate it. passing at
most along the sides. Nor should traffic
from bridges, elevated stations. sub
ways. ferries or railway stations be
discharged directly into the civic cen
ter, such terminals being more advan
tageously placed adjacent to it. Ii
should not thus be an artery of traffic.
but, so TO speak, the center of the
whirlpool Of the city's transportation

PLANNING and SAVING.

From 25 to 40 per cent of all the land
in modern cities is accounted for by
streets. In New York city, it was stat.
ed last summer. there were 2,677 miles
of public streets The value of the land
they occupied was estimated. with its
Improvements. at $9,469.O00, O00-"one-
fourth as great as the value of all the
farm land in the United States"
If the city planners should find some
way of plating streets that would eff.
feet a saving of as little as per cent
in their area. think of the high finance
that it would spell. One per cent fol-
New York alone would have meant
S94, 100000. and New York is only one
city. The wise planning Of towns is
evidently a big and vital problem, even
aside from its efficiency and social bene
fits, which are the aspects Of it of
which one hears the most.

Fourth of July Game.

There are lots of ways of having fun
on the Fourth without the use of dan.
gerous frecrackers. If you intend hav-
ing party for your little friends you
can send out your invitations in the
form of frecrackers. These are made
Of cardboard covered with red paper
and cord sticking out the middle of
one end. The note asking your friends
to come is slipped in this cardboard
casing and sent through the mail. You
all know the game of ninepins, don't
you? Well. you can arrange the nine
pins to look like big firecrackers by
saving down broomstick handles,
painting the pieces red and gluing cord
at the upper end of each. The pins
are thrown down with rubber balls by
the players. and each player has three
turns. The one throwing down the
greatest number of firecracker pins
wins prize, which may be anything
appropriate for the day.

Always stir up the milk. in jar or

United States department Of agricul-
ture proved that in many cases where
retail dealers are held up for selling
skimmilk it is because they have ig-
norantly poured off the top milk to one
customer, leaving the skinned for
some one else
The department Of agriculture rec
ommends that milk be retailed in bot
ties. Whenever 1t is necessary to sell
bulk milk vendors are advised to mix
their milk thoroughly each time before
pouring from large container into a
small one i they wish to avoid unin-

done by stirring the milk with a long

THE CITY
THE CIVIC CENTER;
HEART OF CITY'S DESIGN.
Should Be Easily Accessible to All
Parts of Town.

The civic center is the heart of a
city's design. 1t gives the city its vital
individuality and imparts sense Of
unity and cohesion which cannot be
obtained in any other manner. A city
with a suitable civic center no longer
gives the impression of being an ac-
cidenta conglomeration of buildings
1t becomes an organized whole and
gains a new dignity and new mean
ing.
1t is possible for every city to have
a suitable plan. and every city, If it is
not built on such plan, should be re-
planned and rebuilt. The lack of de-
sign is the outcome Of carelessness
and ignorance on the part of the city
authorities of earlier administra tons.
The absence of such plan is detri-
ment and an injury to all who make
the city their home
In many cities. however. the legacy
of carelessness and incompetency
proves too heavy to be lifted immedi
