 Where do the children of Fifth avenue and the adjacent upper East Side play?
 Perhaps if you had ever asked yourself that question seriously, you might have done what Miss Alma Guy did. She has started a play ground for the children of the rich at 59 West 96th street She did so because it seemed to her that it was the rich child, not the poor one, who had nc chance to play.
 Down on the lower East Side, where Miss Guy did settlement work for years, there were playgrounds with sand piles and swings and tee ter-totters" and parallel bars and other fascinating things like that. The boy who lives in Hester street and the girl who lives in Rivington have places provided for them to play. But the child who lives on Fifth avenue or on Madison-where does he play?
 There are, so Miss Guy says, many "poor little rich children,' who don't know how to play at all It is for them that she decided to open a playground.
  Mr. and Mrs Henry Stuart Patterson, 13O East 62nd street, sh hould be given the credit for suggesting this inter- esting playground to Miss Guy. The fact that Charlotte was only two and half years old when she was the cause of inspiration should not be held against her. She was the first play patron of Miss Guys, and she loved it so that Miss Guy bethought herself of all the other children of the rich who had no place to play. The playground is the result.
 Did Not Know How to Play.
 Ut almost startled me- said Miss Guy, answering questions about her novel work, when Mrs. Patterson told me last spring that Charlotte did not know how to play. It seemed to me one of the most terrible things I had ever heard. Why, what do chill. dren do unless they play? That is the one thing they are meant to do. They can't grow or be normal unless they play.
 Mrs. Patterson suggested that l come in to play with Charlotte. We decided that it would be best to have her with a group of children, so four other children were invited in for that first playground. Where was it? On the roof of the Patterson house. We fitted it up with things which chill dren love. and it proved success from the start. Charlotte knows how to play now. although she is only three years old by this time.
 soon, of course, l was supervising other children at their play. l have had groups of children at the homes of Mir. and Mrs. Acosta Nichols, Mir. and Mrs. Bradley Martin and Dr. T. Halsted Myers. The interest which the children took in the play showed how much they needed it..
 For the Rich Necessity.
 'Then I began to think seriously about the necessity for places where children could play. I had always ac- cepted the fact that children were taken to Central Park for their out ings. We'll, I took several walks the park, and then l was convinced that playgrounds for the

Not much YOU say

There are about one thousand
student desks in central high
school building. Yesterday
force of three began dipping"
the desks. Less than one hundred
of them had been dipped when

$40. There was an average OF

A Kansas city firm OF reno
yttors of school desks and car
seats have contracted with tho
school board o. put 1000 desks Of
the high school through their
sanitary cleaning process. The
doSks are dipped into a vat OF
strong solution which eats off tho
pencil marks, wads of gum,
varuIsN and everything else but
marks which are cut into tho
desks.
The expense Ia insignificant
compared with the results The
work is done for four cents each,
which would amount TO about
$500 TO clean all the desks OF the

Last year the desks were
cleaned by a hand process but
the results were not nearly SO
satisfactory as under the new
method.

from where the torpedo struck the
ship"
Lord Mersey then reiterated that the
Lusitania carried no masked guns nor
troops.
The warnings issued by Germany
before the ship left, be found, only ag-
gravated the crime Of her sinking.
Explaining the curtailment Of boiler
power, Lord Mersey said the Lusltania
had made five successive trips in this
fashion before the disaster and ia my
opinion this reduction in the steamer s
speed was Of no significance and was
proper in the circumstances"
Lord Mersey described at some
length the events Immediately preced-
ing the torpedoing Of the vessel, giving
her speed as Is knots, and recounted
details regarding the position OF the
ship as testified by Captain Turner.
Continuing, he said.
THE blow of the first torpedo broke
number five lfeboat TO spIinters. 4
second torpedo was fred almost i'm
mediately afterwards which also
struck the ship on the starboard side
Tie two torpedoes struck the. ship al
most simultaneously.
Both Of these were discharged By
a German submarine from a distance
variously estimated at from 200 to 500
yards, No warning OF any kind was
given"
Lord Mersey bitterly assailed the
German government saying the act
was "a murdeFous attack because it
was made with a deliberate and wholly
untustifable intention Of killing the
people on board"

China's Great River.

The Yangtze kiang, or Yangtze river
is as long as the Mississippi and is far
more important as a highway of com
merce. From the great port Of Shang-
hal as far inland as the important city
Of Hankow, a distance OF coo miles, the
Yangtze is naVigabIe for ocean going
vessels. For the greater portion OF
this distance the river is very broad
and for some Of the journey a passen-
ger in a boat in midstream would be
unable to see either shore distinctly.
From Hankow to Ichang, ESQ miles
farther, the Yangtze is navigable for
small river steamers. md from Ichang
up to Pingshanhsien, nearly 1000
miles, 1t is IN great part nayigable.
Some of the passenger steamers ply
ing between Shanghai and Hankow are
exceedingly modern and comfortable
Thousands of sailing craft are seen on
the river daily on a trip between these
two points and numbers Of huge RATS
which require each a whole village to
bring them and their contents to the
distant market. The Yangtze has many
important tributaries. One of these,
the Hanho. which flows into the Yang
TIE at Hankow, is itself nayigable for
900 miles.
