ASHLAND AND THE NORMAL
SCHOOL.

This year is going to be the crucial
year in the fight for the rehabili-
ament of the Southern Oregon Nor
NAL School. Either the fight will be
won this year or it is doubtful if it
is ever won. With a victory at the
polls, voting a millage tax to support
the school, it will practically be i'm
possible for sectional jealousy or mis-
guided parsimony to stop its develop
ment.
1t is up to the people of Ashland,
therefore, to get behind the Alumni
committee and others who are man
aging the campaign and make a win
ming fight this year What the re-
establishment and success of this
school would mean to Ashland can
hardly be overestimated. 1t is a dis
tinctly noticeable fact that the two
medium sized cities in Oregon which
have least, felt the depression of the
past two years are Corvallis and Eu-
gene, and the reason therefor is the
money turned into trade channels by
the two schools situated in these cit
les.
The fight for normal in southern
Oregon, though the institution is of
benefit to the entire southern section
of the state. is distinctly Ashlands
fight and Ashland people must one
and all get behind the fight. There
will be money needed, and goodly
amount, to finance campaign;
money that is absolutely necessary to
the proper presentation of the case
to the voters of Oregon and of keep
ing 1t before them so that the merits
of the school may not be lost sight
of in the midst of the stirring politi-
cal fights the election will bring
forth. A sum equal to one dollar for
each man, woman and child in Ash
land is needed, and this sum must be
raised. Four years ago little Mon

Ashland did for her normal campaign
and Monmouth won and Ashland lost.
You cannot conduct a campaign of
education, even in favor of education,
without the sinews of war. 1t is
hoped that every man in Ashland will
come forward and give in proportion
to his means. 1t will be bread cast
upon the waters and will return in
the, shape of increased population, jim
creased business for every business
man in Ashland, and increased pres
tige for the city as an educational
center. Not only will every business
man in Ashland be benefited by the
re-establishment Of the Normal
School, but every citizen and proper
ty owner will be benefited, and he
or she should assist in raising the
necessary money to make an effective
campaign.
With the Pacific Highway passing
through our beautiful city II will
tempt many to come here to educate
their children and to finish them off
for teachers in the Normal. 1t is a
vital question to Ashland whether the
Normal is TO be reopened or to re-
main closed indefinitely, and the de-
cision Of the question depends largely
upon whether the people of Ashland
stand solidly behind the campaign for
the schools with their checkbooks as
we'll as with their ballots. Self-inter-
est should impel every property own
er and resident of Ashland to con-
tribute literally to the funds.

THE COST OF SMOKE.
Abatement of Nuisance Has Been Aai.
 tated With Much Effect.

Abatement of Nuisance Has Been Aai- tated With Much Effect. The question of the abatement of the
 smoke nuisance has for many years been agitated without great effect. Ad-
 mittedly an inconvenience, it has sell dom been considered that the soot of
 the smoke may constitute real men,
 ace to the prosperity of the city. The contrary, indeed, has been the general contentious! The Saturday Evening Post says in a recent issue: 'In the United States great national election was won on the platform that abundant black smoke should pour from all factory chimneys." Some aesthetic souls, it is true, ob- jectci to the blanketing clouds of gloom, but their objections were sneer- ed at as highly impractical. Then, one day, some one sat down l and began to figure out just how much
 this luxury of smoke cost. His figures. quite accurate, set most of the "prac- tica" thinking.
 Here they are:
 London, England, annual damage
 from smoke, $26,OO0.OO0; Pittsburgh, $1OO0O,OOO; Chicago. $4O.O0O,000; Gin
 cinnati. $1OO for every family.
 Significant. are they not? In these estimates, however, only
 damage directly done to clothes, build ings and the cost of washing, painting,
 papering, replacing of corroded metal. damage to merchandise. etc., have been
 considered.
 A wider and possibly more injurious effect of uncontrolled smoke has been
 discovered by an investigator of the
 University of Pittsburgh. who has es- tablished incontrovertible evidence of
 cause and effect between the becloud- ing smoke and the acres of dead vege- tation all about the Steel City.-Town
 Improvement Magazine.

THE, CITY
BACK FENCES A MENACE;
 DENOUNCED IN WASHINGTON
Clean City Committee lnaugurates Campaign For Low Tickets Instead.

Convinced that there is no more serious menace to the health of Wash ingtonians than the high, tight fence, members of the clean city committee of the District of Columbia are plan ming to inaugurate an active campaign this fall for the elimination of this type of inclosure for premises. Citizens associations are to be asked to join in the fight, while the co-opera-
 ton of real estate men will also be sought. The District commissioners are on record as favoring the abolition
 of the high. tight fence and probably
 will be petitioned to enact a regula- ton requiring all new or reconstructed
 fences to be of the low, open type.
 Dr. Arthur L. Murray. secretary of
 the clean city committee. has recently
 made an inspection of the city, study ing the relation of the high board fence to the home. the neighborhood and
 the community. He is emphatically of
 the opinion that this type of fence must go if Washington is to be made more sanitary and beautiful.
 Probably one of the greatest handi- caps to the sanitary conduct of every
 municipality,"' says Doctor Murray, lis that hard and fast practice of sur
 rounding the rear portions of resi-
 dences with high. tight board fences This practice, sanctioned only by custom, was most unfortunately foist-
 ed upon communities at a time in the
 dim past when there existed decided
 lack of appreciation of the advantages,
 and, may even say, the necessity of
 the admission of q maximum amount
 of sunlight and air to all parts of the premises.
 "I was only recently asked. Why
 should the practice of building high. tight board fences be done away with
 in view of the fact that type of fence l of this nature has served it's purpose
 for so many years?' This question may
 well be answered by the query: Is
 there any logical reason why the rear l portion of premises should not be made as attractive and inviting as the 1 front? Who would think of inclosing l their front parking with a high, tight l fenceY"

MODEL. GARDEN CITY
 IS MILWAUKEE PLAN
A Community of Three Zones, Indus
 trial, Civic and Residential.

To make the joys of country life an all the year round possibility for city dwellers model garden city having three distinct zones, industrial. civic and residential, is being laid out in southern Wisconsin with the expecta- tion that ultimately it will become a suburb of Milwaukee. Railroads which run through the site will separate the manufacturing and industrial center on one side from the residence and municipal districts on the other.
 Over 1000 acres of land have been pledged to the project, and owners are working together in the development and execution of the model city plan, which provides first of all that no home shall have less than an acre of thickly wooded ground and that at least 50 per cent of the trees standing when the land, primitive woodland. is sold shall be preserved.
 The combined holdings represent something over 1000 acres lying on either side of the county line road, two miles west of West Allis, one of the future suburbs of Milwaukee. Both the Chicago and Northwestern and the new belt line connecting the North western and the Milwaukee roads run through the property. while the Wau- kesha interurban cars make the resi- dents of the district but half an hour from the Milwaukee terminal station.
 One of the fundamental features of the plan is to insure community of garden homes. The residence district will be bordered along the county line road and the road to the north with the stores, offices and other places of business. No store will be allowed in the heart of the residence district. which is laid out in one acre lots.
 In the industrial district only those factories will be allowed which will meet certain requirements of attrac- tive design, as we'll as modern building regulations governing sanitation and other details for the well being of the employees.
 Many of the natural beauty spots in the residence section will be retained for the benefit of the community, one especially picturesque glen overlooking a natural lake having been transform ed into an open air theater. A certain number of lots will be reserved as playgrounds for children. Arrowheads and other Indian relics which are be- ing found will be housed in a munici. pal museum.

 The planning of a city. like the plan ming of anything else. should be carried out with view to the use which is to be made of 1t and to adapt it best to that use and in addition to make it as pleasing from an artistic. point of view as possible. There should first be strength in the design. and if strength be economically manifested the artistic enrichment of the design will be easily effected

 tations is to take a long step on
 the road to progress. That there
 are things which he cannot do
 the successful business man re- alizes even more surely perhaps
 than he knows what he can do.
 And one of the chief reasons for
 his success is his ability to find
 men to do what he cannot do
 and his willingness to have them
 do 1t. The acknowledgment of limitation thus becomes a far more valuable asset than an abundance of misdirected energy. If this is true of the individual in the conduct of his business affairs. how much more forcibly , does it apply to the management of a city! If graft has cost its thousands ineficiency has cost its tens of thousands.-American } City.
