STRIKEBREAEERS Shy? ANY WONDER?

strikebreaking agencies are find
ing it mighty hard to get strike
breakers for duty in case the threat
ened railroad strike becomes a real,
ity. Tempting offers are being made
to land the men who are out of jobs.
A big price will be paid for crews to
man trains that otherwise will stand
idle. The railroads will be out to
fight to finish and they want men,
or buns, or sIuggers, or anybody, to
help them fight union labor. But the
men they are after will be right hard
to get. One agency that started out
to land 1000 men got as high as a
little over the 800 mark and then got
stuck.
The reason for all this plainly lies
in the results that have come in pre-

the means of bringing people togeth-
er socially such as no other event in
Mechanicsburg. Just the right touch
of color, was the array OF beautiful
evening gowns worn by the women,
against a background Of Southern

the walls and around windows and

green incandescent lights twinkled
among it all, carrying out a color
scheme of green and white. Mrs. r.

TOWN ATTRACTS MOTORISTS
IN NOVEL MANNER

Laconner, a little town in Washing
ton, is situated some distance from one
of the State highways used by many
motor tourists. 1t boasts, however. a
lone hill which commands the best view
obtainable of Skagit Valley, one of the
rich farming districts of that section.
In order to draw the passing tourists
from their beaten patch and attract
them to Laconner for the advantage of
local business, the community has con-
structed a winding road to the summit
of the hill and there built an observa-
ton stand. To advertise the lookout
point, the words Auto View" have
been painted in letters TT. high on
the wall of a water reservoir at the
hills crest. This sign is sufficiently
large to be seen for a long distance

City Planning, by Charles milford
Robinson. published by G. P. Put
nam's Sons, S2.5O). City planning, with
its numerous ramifcations, mas been
the subject for many books and arti-
cles of late, all dealing with the value
and importance of city planning in its
varied forms and adaptations, and en-
phasiZing the attention that is being
given TO this most indispensable fea-
ture of the city's growth and develop
ment.
Among these many publications
there is one that stands out pre-emi-
nently, one that is written with special
reference to the planning of streets
and lots. and has not only value for
the operator. but is of interest and
Importance to the whole community. 1t
is by Charles milford Robinson, splen-
didly arranged and dealing with the
subject in a clear-cut. all-inclusive
manner, an authority on the subject,
being a practical and not a theoreti-
cal discussion. Much of the mater
ial appeared originally in a volume
entitled The Width and Arrangement
of Streets" but this book has been so
revised, ampllned and rearranged that
the reader will not know il for the
same book, and will learn much that
never appeared in the original.
Somewhat less than a hundred IL
lustrations visualize for the reader
conditions as they ought to be and as
they are fast being made in cities all
over the country. The growth of city
planning has been phenomenal and has
become such a necessary science that
the city that does not have its plan
ming commission is rare indeed. The
material for this book has been CLEAN
ed from various authentic sources. in
Guiding the personal experience of the
author during thirty years of that sort
of work; systematic study of the prob
lem in various colleges and universi-
ties; a special trip to London, Eng

criticism made of the general thesis
of the volume which has since been
made complete; and finally. the splen-
did and inspiring progress in beauty.

BENEDICT ARNOLD-DRUGGI
1t was in the city of New Haven, on
cold day of April. 1875, that man
of some thirty-hve years stood behind
counter an apron on his manly
chest. mixing medicine, pasting labels
on phials, and putting poisons in their
places.
Look we'll at this man as he stands
engaged in his occupation. Did you
ever see a bolder brow - a deeper,
darker. or more intensely brilliant eye
"a more resolute lip or more deter
mined chin? Mark the massive out
line of that face from the ear to the
chin: a world of iron will is written in
that firm outline.
The hair, unclogged with the pow
der in fashion at this time, falls back
from his forehead in harsh masses; its
dark hue imparting a strong relief to
the bold and warrior-like face.
While this man stands at his coun-
ter busy with pestle and mortar
bark, There is a murmur along the
streets of New Haven a crowd dark
ems under those aged elms; the MUIR
mur deepens: the druggist became
conscious of four deep-muttered

of Peoria county now stands convened
pursuant to adjournment"
This is the impressive ceremony
used and the words spoken aloud when
circuit court judges step to the bench.
In federal courts all spectators and at
taches are required to arise and re-
main standing until the court has been
seated.
In the days of 1918 to 1880 things
were different, as early historical rec
ords show. observes the Peoria Trib-

incident in which Judge John Rey-

In Washington county when the fol-
lowing procedure was followed:
BOYS. come in. Our John is going
to hold court" the sheriff said to the
spectators. jurors and attorneys who
had gathered on the grass in the court
house yard.
The courts in those days were held
mostly In log houses or in barrooms
of village taverns fitted up for the pur-
pose, with a temporary bench for the
court and benches and chairs arranged
for the jurors. lawyers and spectators.
In general. the judges were adverse
to rendering decisions on points of Law
and preferred to submit all questions
to the jurors for a decision.
One instance is cited when attorneys
requested the court to instruct the 80.
rors on questions OF law. The Judge
after rubbing his head and face with
his hands and rejecting a few mo
ments, said to the lawyers:
why. gentlemen, the jury under.
