The Fight for Transit Is the Peoples Battle

The Fight for Transit Is the Peoples Battle
THE enthusiasm OF the audience that gath
cred at the Academy Of Music last night
was tempered by an obvious firmness Of pur-
pose that augurs good for Philadelphia. The
trick ordinance Of Finance Committee was
ripped wide open. It's illegality was amply
demonstrated and the physical imposslbility
Of the kind Of transit It proposes was dem
onstrated
why fire 14-inch guns at straw men7
There is no expectation among obstruction
lists that the trick ordinance will be enacted,
or, II enacted, put into effect The business
before the people of Philadelphia is not to
smash this ordinance-an easy enough task
but to drive Councils to the enactment Of the
real ordinances, by which means only can
a high-speed system be secured II is posi-
tive, not a negative, fight which citizens have
hard fight, constant vigilance, energy and
stick -at-it-iveness
Numbers Of citizens have already pledged
themselves to attend the next meeting of
Councils and every subsequent meeting until
that body responds to the demands Of the
community. Thousands of other citizens who
have not pledged themselves are neverthe-
less determined to be in the tight. And thou
sands Of others have already determined to
let their ballots speak for them. The in
dignation Of the community is deep. In a
multitude of ways It will express itself The
best way to do so in the immediate crisis Is
by visualizins for Councilmen the numerical
strength OF transit advocates
The people can get rapid transit and only
the people can. 1t is their fight and they
must wage It.

THE POETRY OF
PIE AND PUDDING
Fannie Farmer Caused the Tyro
Bride to Bake as Mother Used to
Bake and Saved Many a Home
From Wreck and Ruin.
By BURTON KLINE

VOU are all acquainted with the kind of
Il person who, unwilling or unable to earn
reputation for greatness, cheerfully as
sumes one, The world is full OF him. who's
Who" is full of him. He creeps even into
the permanent who's Who" Of history and
stays there. There is only one class Of people
more numerous. These are the men and
women who genuinely deserve better re-
pute than they have to enjoy, who ought to
be known at least for their deserts, and who
somehow contrive to pass from the stage
without eliciting a murmur of applause. They
live on tlptoe, and tiptoe off to die
In this latter class belonged certain coun-
try editor, who possessed genius for
journalism which, had 1t not been circum-
Vallated by a damning laziness, would have
sent him rocheting to the topmost rungs OF
his profession. In proof of his undoubted
genius we have his remark to one OF his
assistants that there are always two topics
to interest any reader, no matter how dull
may be the news of the day. The two topics
are, ways of Making Money and What to
Eat"
This Is profoundly true. It is especially
true of the second topic. From his earliest
to his latest days man is deeply. and some-
times poignantly, concerned about his eating.
The habit of eating is wel-nigh universal
1t comprehends much OF the joy and most
of the tragedy in the human lot Let him
that hath too much and him that hath too
little to eat, foregather and debate which
OF them suffereth the greater woe.

not without interest for all that. and

me new view of far-off country
about which much has been written
while but little is known. Moreover.
1t reveals life in a more cheerful light
than readers OF Russian fiction would
deem possible. Mrs. Lee has given
a cheerful view Of more than one in
