TOWN PLANNING AN OLD ART
Aneients We'll Understood the Value of Making Their Cities as Beau
 tiful as Possible.

Town planning is not a modern art, The ancients appreciated the value of a civic center; the Roman forum and acropolis at Athens are examples of this Coming down to medieval times, we have the Piazza della Signoria at Florence and the Piazza of St Marks at Venice. public squares beautified al the public expense. from which many a mighty dictum for veal or woe went forth Paris owes a great debt of gratitude to Baron Hauss mann. whose ingenious city planning has produced one of the finest cities iH the world.

Bit of Conceit.

Our brave Joffre was examining a map under fire. The map was held by a young subaltern, a boy of sixteen from the military school at St Cyr Bang! S-s-s! went the marmites and Jack Johnsons and whistling Willies- for so they call those shells, you know and the boy could not help starting and trembling as he held the map, and this lost our brave Joffre his place.
 The generalissimo was yeXed when he lost his place three or four times. and he said to the boy soldier:
 "Voila, you are too coneeited, dodg- ing the shells like that! Do you sup pose the Boches aim those expensive shells at you2 You are only little boy soldier Do you take yourself for cathedral?' Washington Star.

Rebuiidinq Bridqes.

One of the most gratifying results of the present war excitement in Great Britain is the action of the house of lords providing for gen eral strengthening of the bridges along the main roads of motor traffic. These bridges were mostly under the management of the big railroad com panies, and the heavy truck traffic did not appeal to them enough to cause them to expend either money or labor in strengthening the bridges. The heavy traffic in motor trucks for t4e British war department has brought the question of strong bridges vividly before the people, and strong pressure is being brought by the courts, officials of the government and the press on the railroads. The result is that bridges are rebuilt all over the country.

New Name for Cigars.

In one of the German papers re- gently there was reference to Bis marck herrings. Bismarck cigars, etc. It appears that there are also Bulow
 herrings, which run the Bismarcks very close in popularity, and also
 Bulow hams. It is suggested that the failure of Bethmann-Hollweg to associate himself with any comestible is due to the length of his name. But an enthusiastic admirer of Hindenburg has been selling cheap cognac as Hin denburg schnapps and grog as Hin- denburg tea. Also doubtful mixture of various intoxicants has been chris tened Hindenburg coffee. It seems rather sad that the vendor of these connections, which were sold in

An examination of fire statistics would show that defective fues are the cause of great majority of the fires that occur in dwellings It is an old saying among architects that money put into a thoroughly good chimney is never wasted So far as safety from fire is concerned. the chimney is the most important strue- tural feature of a building But al- most countless fires have shown that careless workmanship. and in some cases bad design. in chimney coustruc- ton prevail to an alarming extent

Anger is Bad For Health

DR.. Woods Hutchinson has an art
icle in the Philadelphia Public Ledger
on How Anger Shortens Life" The
very title aught to be caution to
those people who get mad so easily
and who flare up every time one disa-
grees with them. Hate Is disease
quite as fatal as typhoid or tubercu-
losls. To be grouchy, snarly and
quarresome is the same. The theory
is the same. The theory is that
when a person is In that situation he
is at cross purposes with Gods ad-
minlstratiOn Of the world and that
situation is disease. There can be
no doubt about this. 1t is the old
doctrine of the influence Of mind
over matter, insisted upon today by
medical scientist Df the highest re-
pute. Love is health; hate is disease
1t is better to know that than nine.
tenths of the so called truth that
sway mems minds.

BOYS, FARMING AND BRAINS

Michigan City Dispatch: "One OF
the greatest misfortunes that has
overtaken this country is the move
ment of farm boys to the city," said
said Governor Ralston, in a speech
at Greencastle. "Not that l argue
that all boys should be farmers, foi
not every boy has brains enough tc
be farmer" The governor is right
1t takes as much brains to be farmer
as it does to be anything else, ant
infinitely more than is required of {
city chap who spends his time ir
idleness and loafing on the stree,
corner, which seems. to be the sole
ambition of too many city boys.
