Miss Marguerite Brack, of San

the Pacific Coast, is in New York to
spend the winter and will take part in
most Of the seasons indoor meets.
Her appearance IN competition here
will be watched with interest. Al
though her best sprinting perform

I Sc Of Miss Olga Dorfner, of Phil
adelphia, the American record holder,
she has TO her credit a quarter mile
mark of minutes seconds, which
brands her most dangerous rival
at the distance to the speedlest fair

The presence of Miss Brack in the
important metropolitan contests VIII
give them national rank, for Miss
Dorfner is also a promised starter, so
that no girl having claim 10 supremacy
will be absent
John Charles Lee, jr., captain Of the
Columbia University swimming team,

and there reported the finest aggrega-
ton of watermen the Mornngside in

the swimmers were Herbert Vollmer,
the New York Athletic Club champion
and record holder; Philip Herbert, the
interscholastic sprinter from Horace
Mann, and Frankel, Benson, Muller,

Il is interesting TO learn that Whit

to break most of the worlds records
before coming of age. He is now nine

The lads Of the Brookline High
School, of Boston, have started practice
for the fall meets and are confident
of cleaning up in the interscholastic
title contests. as they did last year.
Leo Handy, the all round champion of
l914-'l5. is again available, and he has
improved materially, so his teamm ates
expect him not only to defeat all ri
walls, but TO hang up an entire new list
of standards in so doing.
Where there's a will there's a way.
The youths OF Redwood City, Cal, be-
came interested in water sports few
months ago and decided to adopt them,
but they soon discovered that the only
place open to them for practice, 4
local creek. was so polluted b. the
dumping Of refuse as to be unbearable
Nevertheless, they organized.
Then every man present agreed to
devote himself to cleaning out the creek
during spare hours and also TO report
TO the authorities every case of dump
ing. which il against the municipal
laws. Now the Redwood City Swim
ming Club is flourishing, and it has
good water in which the members can
trair the year round.
The appointment of George Meehan,
of 8oston, to the post oil instructor OF
swimming at Townsend Harris Hall
will deprive the amateur ranks Of one
of rhe foremost opponents Of aquatic
endurance.
Meehan gave an amazing exhibition
of speed and endurance year ago IN
The Tribune Marathon swim to Sandy
Hook. lie defeated the largest and
best field of long distance swimmers
ever brought together in any country
and he covered the classic course in {
hours and IS minutes, the fastest time
by nearly one hour that has ever been
made over IL.

ALEXANDER ROBERTS

4 LEXANDER ROBERTS. who
IN died yesterday in his ninety
/ = second year, was the Oldest oi
the native-born residents OF
Harrisburg and had seen this city de-
velop from a small borough to one of
the most progressive municipalities OF
the country. Born the day after the
Monroe doctrine was given to the
world, his long life was passed in
varying fields of activity and he has
much to do with the advancement OF
the city. In suite of years he con-
tinued until short time ago to take
an active interest in various business
enterprises in which he was a share
holder and followed every civic move
ment with close attention.
Mr.. Roberts was distinguished by an
abiding love for his native city. He
gave up a promising career as an en-
gineer of construction on the Penn
sylvania railroad = that he might
come back to his home and looR
after business enterprises, and the
line that was the basis of the present
splendid trolley system was aided in
its early days by his brains and his
means.

OUR HOUSING CONDITIONS

- Ohm IHLDER, the New York
housing expert, told us some un-
pleasant truths last week, most
~ of which we knew, but concerning
which many of us had given very little
thought.
Possibly the most valuable hint that
he dropped was that while housing
conditions are bad in some parts OF
Harrisburg we are not doing anything
to improve them as they exist or to
prevent future development along
similar lines. In other words, our pub
lie officials are not clothed with au-
thority to enforce building rules, for
the reason that there are few such
rules. Put the law into simple and
easy understandable form and our
board of health and our building in
ispector will be able to correct the evils
that Mr.. Ihlder so sharply criticizes
for the expert is positive there is nc
disposition to shirk on the part oi
those clothed with authority.
The Chamber of Commerce, 1t is re.
! ported, is about to appoint perma-
@snt housing committee, whose duty Il

On Saturday I went away
Quite early. please take note,
And ere I took the train that day
No poetry I wrote.
AS a result no poem appeared
In this sheet Saturday;
Which brought a note from goo'
friend
Addressed to me to-day.
With all the skill of Sherlock Holmes
He doped the thing out right,
But asked that in the future |
Should certain be to write
Some verses to announce that l
Am leaving for a time,
And that until my coming back
There'll not be any rhyme.
I'm glad to know that I am missed
When I go out of town,
And if 'twere safe to notice give
I'd glady jot it down
But have learned tits safest to
Have nothing. Ed, to say
About ones plans. but when the time
Arrives. just sneak away.

shall be to frame a suggestive set of
regulations for submission to City
Council and to see that the rules
adopted are enforced. This is very
proper activity, since living conditions
are one of the prime factors in the
growth of any municipality.
The people of Harrisburg rs a whole
have spent millions of dollars on
parks, Fairgrounds. paved streets, sew
ers, a filter plant and drainage facili-
ties during the past ten years and this
huge investment should not be 1eopar-
dized by the desire of builders to make
each square foot of ground yield a
maximum of profit at the expense of
the health of residents. Not only
houses are SO constructed as to be be-
yond the pale of criticism, but the old
er sections of the city should be reno
waited until Harrisburg is freed of any
thing that even approaches the defini-
ton of slum.
Not all of us can live in houses sur
rounded by broad lawns, but the law
can be made to provide air and sun
shine for everybody no matter how
small the dwelling or apartment, and
to insist upon surroundings being uni
versally sanitary.
That is not too much to ask of any
land proprietor or any contracting
builder. Indeed, it is what We owe to
the poorer portion Of our population
and 1t is what we must bring about IL
we are going to perform our full duty
to all our people.

AAf lRe local optlon pFoposiIioh'
w the representatives of Dau-
phin county in the Legisla-
ture cannot fail to realize that the
sentiment of the voters of all parties
is crystalized in favor of this measure
of homo rule.
Governor Brumbaugh's hands
should be upheld by Dauphin county
in his great fight for local option on
the liquor question, and there never
should have been any doubt concern
ing the position of those who repre-
sent the city and county districts in
the present session of the Legislature.
The Governor set out squarely and
fairly in his personal platform, which
was approved by the Republican State
Committee at the Pittsburgh meeting,
of each county the right Ito say
whether licenses to sell intoxicants
should be granted and a refusal OF the
Legislature to provide for such sub
mission of the matter to the sovereign
voters is certain to be resented by
them at the polls.
Every legislator, whatever his con-
stituency, is responsible to those whom
he represents in the lawmaking body
and he must give an accounting of his
stewardship. All over Pennsylvania
the people are clamoring for local OPP
tion and they will not be refused
without a reckoning.

teal thing. Firmly impress the name

half the battle for fly suppression will

BY entertaining the typhoid fly you

During countless ages the fly has
been tolerated, smiled at, brushed
away gently or slapped at violently,
according to the temper of his victim.
He has been sung in jingles by minor
poets who might have been better en-
ployed, acclaimed as a comedian for
the amusement of infants, used as a
vehicle for the paragrapher's shafts
of wit, even eulogized by pseudo
Scientists as a benefactor of the

RAILROAD ATHLETIC MEET

Ut is to be hoped that Harrisburg
will be selected again next year
1 for the Pennsylvania Railroad an
nua1 athletic meet, like that held
in this city last Saturday. The move
ment is good one for many reasons
and the railroad company deserves
praise for the encouragement it has
given and the part it has played in
making the meets a success. Not
only are the men of the several di-
visions east of Pittsburgh and Erie
thus brought into closer fellowship,
but good habits and proper care of
the body are encouraged by the
friendly rivalry thus engendered.
