You people have just had term
Of the United States federal court, the
highest court In the land. and yet you
do not deserve 1t. Plans were laid
for the session here. a resolution was
secured from the council, and when
the court was ready to come you did
not stand together on 1t. and almost
lost it. Such spirit is against your
town and your people. Let's have
the truth. l am dealing in imper-
sonalities, and am striking at no.
body-it is the spirit that / am after.
Mr.. Reames did splendid work there
for you. He sent a special agent
here and it was finally arranged and
the term was held, an event held but
three or four times in the history of
the state outside Of Portland.
THE trouble is that people do not
take enough interest in their public
affairs. What you need In this coun-
try and town is unity of action, unit
OF energy--a spirit OF working to-
gether and in supporting one united
body. Get all the young people into
it, the men and women. the boys and
girls. In them lies your future. Put
in some social features In which all
can take part; supply place for the
women where they can meet. and
make your plans SO that cooperation
and unified action can be taken by
unified people.

Ingenuity of college students in writ

course in composition is extraordinary.
Perhaps it Is a reassertion Of native

ness. But the remedy to be adopted at
Harvard, after special study of the
problem, is a patient one. A standing
faculty committee is to be appointed,
and Instructors in all courses will be
urged to send to the committee any ex-

Roping a Street Car.
From the Augusta (Me.) Kennebec Journal.

From the Augusta tMe) Kennebec Journal
There is one youngster in the Deer
ing district who will be careful what
he lassos when he is playing wild
west" With a rope around his waist
he started after big game and he roped
trolley car. That he escaped with his
life is due to good luck more than
anything else. The youngster was
standing near the track when the car
came along. In true wild west style
he whirled the moose around his head
and made a playful cast at the car.
The rope settled over the brake handle
and was drawn taut. As luck would
have it the boy began to run as soon
as he saw he had caught" the car
and this saved him from a bad fall. A
man standing on the rear platform of
the car saw the predicament of the
amateur westerner and at once pulled
the bell cord. The car stopped at the
next white post. which was nearby.
and the lad lost no time in disengag-
ing himself from the entanglements
Of the rope. Then he forgot his wild
west character and scooted for mother.

STEADY DEVELOPMENT
AT EDGEWOOD PARK
Suburbs of National Capital Have
Become Important Feature
of Life Here.

One of the most interesting suburban
operations in the vicinity of Washing
ton has been the Edgewood Park de-
velopment, located on the Rockville
pike, near the post office of Bethesda,
1t is six and thre-quarters miles from
the White House, and about one mile
beyond the District limits.
The method of treatment Of this prop
erty, it is said, resembles more nearly
the type of suburb which has become
so important a part of the life of some
northern cities-for example, Garden
City, L. l.; Brookline. Mass. or Gull
ford Park, Md.
Gateway to Park.
The entrance is through a gateway,
with lodge or property Office built to
conform with the design of the gate.
An avenue of tall poplars, planted
twenty years ago, leads through banks
of shrubbery to the wooded portion OF
the property, where most of the devel-
opment has taken place.
Concrete is used extensively in the
construction, even in making the road
ways, and the effect of the smooth,
wide streets winding through a forest,
WIFI houses ana SdTuenS nalI concealed
by the foliage, is beautiful. The type
of house erected is regulated by re-
strictions. so that while modest homes
within the reach of all buyers are pro-
vided, yet the character and appearance
of the park is maintained. Reasonab BILE
restrictions increase the value Of prop
erty as time goes on, 1t is claimed, and
this principle has been followed at
Edgewood.
Army Men Among Residents.
The army and navy appear to have
been especially attracted by Edgewood
Park, as witness the names of some OF
the residents and property owners.
