TWO KINDS OF CITY BOOMING.

From st. Louis Star.
The boosting spirit is a mighty fine
thing in city, if the citizens real
ize what they are boosting, and boost
in the right place. Heretofore, in
most of our cities, that which has
been boosted by these boosting. cam
paigns, has been the wealth and in
come of the rich and the cost of liv-
ing of the poor. Very seldom has it
been the chance of the chap in the
ranks for a better opportunity to
make good. The mere addition of fac
tories and of workers in a city, does
not, of itself, mean an advantage to
the community. 1t may mean that,
of course, but frequently it does not.
What a city needs more than more
workshops and more population, is
more justice, more fair play, more
real downright democracy. 1t doesn't
help city to bring in thousand
more people if they are simply to
add to the congestion of the clums.
We have overemphasized mere size in
our city buildings and neglected due
attention to quality, beauty, convent
ence and comfort. A million dollar
fund for better schools, better homes,
fairer taxes, finer and more demo-
cratic parks, lower carfares, cheaper
light, heat and power, more clean
pleasure for all the people, would be
worth boosting for Nobody is afraid
that this kind of boosting will not
come, for it is already sprouting in
spots. When it does become general
1t will put the old style form of boost
ing to shame.

INDIANS CELEBRATE WITH
WHITES AT FORT COLLINS

FORT COLLINS, Colo, July g.
Fort Collins is celebrating her fif-

act anniversary, for the city was
founded in May of 1864. But at that
time of the year, the dry farmers and
the lamb feedres are too busy to take
the necessary lay-off for a celebra-
ton. So it was decided to set the
date for July 2. Today, tomorrow
and Saturday, Fort Collins will be
thronged with thousands of visitors
from all over the Rocky Mountain
territory.
Today when the main events of the
celebration take place, there will be
big parade of pioneers. A few of
the founders of the town still sur
vive, and they will ride in the pa
rade, dressed in garments like those
worn when they first set up their sod
shanties and started to break the

In this years turning of the col.

two out of three at baseball, and Yale
beat Harvard in rowing.
There is only one branch of srort
left this year in which the turning ol
the worm can be made complete
this is in football next fall.
While the Blue feels mighty chippei
and cocky over these three victories
enumerated, it can be safely said that
Yale students and graduates woult
rather see football victory over tht
Crimson than victories in everything
else. Yale hopes are high for next
fall, but they'll have to have some
thing better than high hopes as long
as Harvard has Brickley and Ma

Two years ago she was school girl

herself an ardent racer. She is now
known as the most daring girl rider
of the state.
"If more girls would get out and
take the fresh air on a motorcycle,
said Mrs. Clymer, "they would get
more color in their cheeks. The sport
is much better for them than tennis
or horseback riding. 1t gives them
something to do even if it is sort
of hobby"
