STRIKE BREAKING AGENTS
OUSTED IN PHILADELPHIA
STATE LABOR OFFICIALS GIVE THE
MOVE ON SIGNAL.
Were Seeking to Secure Men in Bunches
to Take Place of Striking New
York Street Car Men.

More than twenty-five strikebreakinS
agents. who were in Philadelphia gather.
ing up men to send to New York to
operate the street cars, We're virtually
driven from the city by officials of the
state department OF labor and Audustry.
None of them had a state license. as
Is required by law. and when the state
officials were advised of that fact
prompt action was taken and instruc-
tions given TO arrest them.
As soon as the agents got wind of
the decision of the department they got
out of the city. So great was their
hurry that some of them left their pa
pers and clothing in their hotel rooms.
An official of the department of labor
and industry said: ste
We propose to prosecute them to the
limit They won't be let off with fines.
but we'll press for Jail terms In the
last few weeks six such agents were
arrested for operating without licenses.
This city seems to be a favorite place
for these men, who ply their trade un
scrupulously, and many times send
workers to distant points and then leave
them stranded"

For National Park Service

bill is under consideration in congress to
establish national park service The federal
government owns fourteen national parks, with
a total area of nearly five million acres. all un

terror. 1t also owns thirtyone national monu.
ments. OF which nineteen are In the department
OF the interior ten In the department of agricul.
ture and two in the war department. Under ex.
isting arrangements there has been no central
organization for the administration of these
splendid recreational possessions. Each of the
fourteen national parks Is now under separate
management. 1t is very desirable that these
parks be administered through general bureau
at the seat of government in Washington.
There is constantly increasing volume OF
travel to the national parks. and 1t is necessary
that there should be one central organization
which may furnish reliable information attrac.
lively prepared for the benefit OF tourists to the
parks. Under the existing order OF things very
little systematic work in this direction has been
possible With national park service, equipped
with facilities and competent corps of workers,
there might be developed fine bureau of In
formation, supplying to the general public the
things II wants to know about its parks and
monuments. 1t is to be noted in this connection
that Canada, through Its department of parks,
has so thoroughly exploited its several national
parks that during the season Of 1915. when there
was such large volume Of travel through the
West, the Canadian parks attracted in the aggre.
gate more visitors than the parks of the United
States, thus afording fine illustration of what
the government in exploitation OF its recrea.
tional areas can do.

The Reason We Forget
IS5rpt1p1sp7pss1tt1t1ttlpyplt113151i

Let me see, what was that name?"
Haven't we often heard that phrase or one
very like 1t? Doesn't our memory often play
US tricks and cause us to forget things we know
perfectly well--"as well as know my own name"
In fact? There is q reason for this; for nearly
every case Of loss OF memory we can find
cause. This discovery has recently been made
and Is one Of the most important advances which
psychology has made In the understanding of
our mental life.
Forgetting. Of course. in one sense, Is loss Of
memory. How. first of all. do we remember
thfngsf
II has been assumed by psychologists that ev-
cry event we experience leaves its trace in the
nervous substance Of the brain. In much the same
way that trace is left upon the Photographic
record by the scratch of the recording needle; II
the impression is "vivid'-that is, II It leaves
deep impression upon the nervous system-then
we remember 1t: II not we forget 1t. As the
brain disintegrates with age. the memories be-
come weak. This is the doctrine usually as
sumed for the storage of our memories.
But psychologists have lately complained
against this materialistic view Of the facts. OF
late years Professor Henri Bergson in particular.
has protested that such an explanation does not
explain. We believe that memory is q mental
thing. not material one To be sure. there was
always the difhculty, in accounting for memory.
that tho brain cells, which are constantly being
replaced. would eliminate the contained memo
ries. Just as new wax cylinders would eface the
record, but scientific men got round" this by as
suming that the new cell as It was deposited

one and thus retained the memory. There was

teralistic view found support in the fact that
practically none OF our memories is ever lost.
but all can be removed under suitable conditions
and by proper means Our memory is potentially
almost perfect
We should all strive to improve the memory as
much as possible, for upon II very personality
depends. II we had no memory we could have no
feeling of "self'-no feeling that we are the same
self we were yesterday. And II we did not have
this feeling we should be lower than the ami
mails" We may improve the memory by paying
strict attention to what is being said or done and
by trying to associate It with as many other
things as possible which have interest for us, for
1t has been said that Association is ninetenths
Of memory" The more we forget the more we
tend to forget and the more we train the memory
the better 1t becomes. Like all else It improves
with practice and habit.
Forgetting is at times very awkward II leads
us into all sorts Of social inconvenences We
forget name. an address. word when we. wish
most to remember IT, These acts Of forgetful-
ness seem at first perfectly erratic and spontane-
GUS: they seem to follow no law and be subject
to no fixed rule.
So. then, when we forget name or thing-or
by some error OF speech or writing give another
word for the right one-we can nearly always
find out why this should be so and uncover the
actual process involved by a careful analysis of
the previous trains of thought and action. We
forget because we wish to forget. 1t Is a we'll
known fact that we tend to forget unpleasant
events more readily than we do pleasant ones
That Is because OF this fact--because In one
case. the memory is repressed, and In the other

Their principal aim is that wherever possible

case of the ArMenians is case where
this must be done. The Armenians
spread throughout Asia Minor south OF
Russia are merely a majority in the
districts usually designated as Arme-
MAN. Armenian autonomy therefore,
would lead to the loss of the independ-
ence of the other Ottoman races. I'm
der these conditions even the young
Turks were opposed to the Armenian
plan, but in justice they wanted to
give the Armenans a fuller share in
the government which was done, and
even our worst traducers cannot deny
that
When the war broke out we knew
exactly what the Armenians were do

and money had been brought into the
country and their organization was
made even more perfect. l was then
president of the Chamber of Deputies
and was very fond of the Armenian
members as had always been friend

representatives together and asked
what they intended doing. At the END

Halil Bey then stated that the OTTO
man government was one on this point
realizing that this opportunity for the
Armenians might come. Enver Pasha. tbs
leader of the Young Turks, HALL Bey
said, called in the Armenian patriarch
one day and told him the same thing,
but despite this he said. the Armenians
rose when the Russians invaded Asia
Minor and the Turkish government took
the measures which had been outlined to
the Armenian leaders beforehand.
The Turkish foreign minister said that
the Armenian organization made it i'm.
