THE PROPER COURSE

NOTHING that the City Health
N Department has done in all its
long crusade against the dirty
milk dealer is more commendable than
the action taken by the bureau this
week ordering the revocation of the
license of one dealer until he meets all
requirements of the city's ordinances.
The dangers of contaminated milk,
breeding the terrible typhoid and other
serious diseases. are too great to per-
nit of a filthy supply coming into
Harrisburg. Only now Shippensburg
is suffering from a typhoid epidemic
and the chances are great that a con-
taminated milk supply is largely re-
sponsible for many cases in the Cum
berland Valley town. Analysis OF
dozens of samples by the city bac-
teriologist showed recently that many
dealers were delivering milk heavy
with manure sediment and teemine
with the deadly colon bacteria.
Prosecution in many cases has failed
to bring better conditions in this city
probably because the milkman finds II
less expensive TO pay his fines than to
improve conditions. The health bureau
las. therefore. wisely determined to
revoke the licenses of such dealers as
fail to meet the standards laid down

At a recent public meeting in Rhode
Island. Ex-Governor Pothier called at
tention to the dominant element in the
Democratic party, and said: ut is a
remarkable fact that when the leading
industries of New England were as
sailed during the framing of the pres
ent tariff not a Democratic representa-
tive in Congress from the Eastern
States. so far as I can learn, stood up
to demand that these industries be
given at least sufficient protection to
enable them to continue doing busi-
ness. The South seemed to be in the
saddle. indeed, and our Democratic rep
resentatives from the East were found
holding on to the tail of the steed"
New England did not fail to take
notice of this in the Congressional cleo
tions of 1914. Two years before, New
England sent twenty Democratic Con-
gressmen to Washington, and only
twelve Republicans. Last Fall New
England broke the grip of her repre-
sentatives from the tail of the steed,"
as Governor Pothier puts it, and elected
twenty-six Republican Congressman to
only six Democrats

LESSON FROM HARRISBURG
TFroro New Castle News

Nearly every day we can find text
for a sermon on civic improvement
by scanning the esteemed Harrisburg
Telegraph. The Capitol City of Penn
sylvania sets the pace for her sister
cities of the third class throughout
the Commonwealth. We quote from
the Telegraph:
"The family garden plots maintained
by the Harrisburg Benevolent Asso-
citation yielded more than $1,000
worth of vegetables last summer and
the 237 families who worked the
ground reaped the benefit. This is
an average of about $40 worth of
vegetables per family, although some
of them made their ground yield
twice that sum-"
In every section of New Castle
there are numerous plots of ground
lying idle and growing up to weeds
which the health department requires
shall be cut at the expense of the
property owner. All of these might
he made to yield a profitable revenue.
The trouble has always been the lack
of organized effort to interest both
property owners and the members OF
needy families.
1t would be possible for New Cas-
tie not only to provide wholesome
occupation for many idle persons. but
also to improve the appearance of the
city and turn the vacant lot and
backyard deserts into bowers of
beauty and gardens of plenty.

THE ZEPPELIN
[Springfield Republican, !


It Is quite possible that this war will
see the end of the Zeppelin, not so
much because 1t has proved less eff
cient than had been hoped for, as be-
cause an effective means of combating
it will be found. If England had taken
more seriously the menace quite open
ly prepared long before the war and
illustrated in the mysterious airships
which hung over the British coast
some four years ago, a raid on London
would now be a dangerous matter.
Hardly anything had been done before
the war in the way of anti-aircraft
guns, though the Krupps had produced
several models. British aeroplanes.
few in number. were designed primar-
lily for scouting and apparently nobody
had given thought till the emergency
arose, of the problems of attacking and
destroying a Zeppelin in the air. The
exploit of Lieutenant Warneford still
stands alone. though many airships
have been destroyed in other ways.
They are extremely vulnerable, and
the vast mass filled with an inflamma-
BILE gas offers a much easier target
than an aeroplane. 1t will be surpris-
ing If the war does not produce a
type of flying machine and armament
which will make a long cruise by a
Zeppelin too hazardous to be worth
while.

THE EDUCATIONAL "NIov1Es"

TIME movies display distinct
signs of becoming the educa-
tional influence in the commun-
ity so much to be desired and appar-
entity so far from realization only a
few years ago. Tt has not been so
long since the best the moving picture
theater had to offer was blood and
thunder play with a thrill in every
line or a knock -down-and drag out
type of comedy that would have put to
shame any transforming company of
ham-actors that ever tramped the ties
The ''theater" in those days was any
vacant store room that happened to be
available.
To-day, how different! The motion
picture theater is now a theater in
deed and one of the best developments
of the year has been the installation
in many of the larger houses of first
class pipe organs. This mingling of
good pictures with good music is a
long step toward placing the moving
picture on the high plane it should
occupy While the average movie"
program is vastly superior to any
thing the old-time cheap Legitimate
had to offer, it costs even less and its
influence is generally uplifting.
Three forces have been at work to

HOW THE TREND is

TIME political warfare which is
raging between the two Demo-
cratic senators from Maryland
has produced, in its first battle, vic
tory for Senator John Walter Smith.
He has defeated Senator Blair Lee for
the nomination for the governorship.
The Smith candidate, however will
now be knitted at the polls and re-
taliation will be taken on Senator Lee
when his term in the Senate expires,
as it will in 1917. The warfare will
extend to the national ticket as well
and Maryland may be put down in
the Republican column, for the time
being, at least.

TINE Panama Canal is a unique
thing to behold. In the days
of its making it was one of
the most impressive spectacles of
the world. The great red cash through
Culebra Mountain, the stealthy slides,
the swarms of men, the titanic fea-
lures of construction, all contributed
to make a picture that men went
thousands of miles to see.
With the exception of the slides, the
battle between man and nature is
over. Jungle and mountain are
beaten, and quickly the scars have
healed. The waters have come up
from the sea and down from the
mountains to fill the cuts and chan
nels. The quick-Spri;lging jungle has
crept over bank and dam and fill.
The great waterway lies serene as a
tropical river, with pelicans fishing
along its banks and water lilies rock
ing on it's BOSOM
Especially unimpressive is the en-
trance to the canal at either end.
Suppose you are going from Balboa,
the Pacific port, to Colon. Your ship
enters what might we'll be a wide
inlet in the sea, surrounded by mud
flats at low tide and tapping the roots
of the forest when the tide is in. Here
and there is a lighthouse or a tide
mark; otherwise, no sign of work or
Improvement. AS you sail up this
inlet 1t narrows suddenly, and the first
of the locks, Miraflores, is before you.
Here you first feel the grip of the
great canal The towing engines,
crawling along the lock walls like
great black beetles, pull your ship
past the huge gates The rumbling
culverts disgorge their waters, and
quietly, easily and quickly the giant
lifts your liner.
This operation is directed from the
bridge by the lock pilot, who gets off
when the lock is passed. Besides him,
however, there is canal pilot, who
helps the captain to see the ship all
the way through.
The Second Step
Across Miraflores Lake, pretty bit
| of blue water set in the jungle-clad
hills, and you are at Pedro Miguel,
| the second step in the ascent of the
continental divide. Here the process
of locking through is repeated; you
! sail along a bit of placid channel with
grassy banks, round a turn, and see
before you the greatest artificial can
yon in the world.
This is the point where the battle
still RACES. Here Culebra Mountain,
cut in two, strives night and day to
pinch the canal out of existence by
| pushing its tons of earth together
| from either side.
| Culebra cut to-day suggests the
| Grand Canyon. The sheer rock walls
! of Gold and Contractors hills rise
| hundreds of feet high on either side.
Beyond, where the two Culebra slides
are active, the banks are steep, red
| slopes, raw and fresh, like the fur
row of some titanic plow. Down at
! the bottom of this canyon is the canal
narrow, muddy and troubled
crowded with the dredges that strug-
| gle night and day to keep a clear pas
sage for the waiting ships.
Pass the cut and the atmosphere of
strife and struggle is gone. You sail
between smooth, green banks, where
the wild banana is coming back, and
where clear streams cascade prettily
down rocky channels into the canal.
Lake Greatest Wonder
A few miles of this and Gatun Lake,
the key, the triumph and the great
est wonder of the canal, opens before
