are harmonious and commensurate
with the ultimate Importance of this
district as a residential locality.
As indicating how closely in accord
these West Shore people are with the
best thought of the period on rura
planning may be quoted the following
from an address of Professor Franz
A. Waugh, of the Massachusetts, Agri'
cultural College. Amherst. Mass, be-
fore the last annual convention of The
American Civic Association at Wash
ington:
City planning has arrived The
need of IL and tne possibilities OF IL
have already worked themselves
into the public mind. number of
well-trained, capable men are in the
field at work and substantial re-
Country planning must follow.
The country has just as great a need
and just as good right Si6e 70 oe
PHeR Psnnefb bas as the the eIsy psyople Of the
United States stin five in the eoun-
try. Moreover there are sound rea-
sons for thinking that. Just at the
present time, the general veal or
society is more concerned in the
salvation of the country than In the
next improvements in the city.
therefore as comprehending with
in its scope both city and country.
1t is hardly accurate even TO say
that civic art includes city planning
and country planning on equal
terms, for city and farm are really
but complimentary parts or one
say tnat the city ends here ana
here the country begins. Each one
of us lives partly in the one ana
partly in the other. Each one draws
living Sar Z rigfn rfiOnS nqrIlN from
town ana partly from country. 10
plan the city separately from the
country is therefore unsocial, un-
economic and unsound in practice.
Yet for the moment we must d.
rect our attention to the pro6iems
peculiar to the rural world. There
are some reasons TO hope for good
results here. The country has
enormous stores of native beauty
aud substantial good left unharmed
by the devastating hand of man. 1t
would seem to be easier to make
the country beautiful and sanitary.
Beyond this, however. we shall GER
ta'nly meet difficulties, for up to
the present time there has been lit
tie planning to make the country
more orderly and conVenient. In.
deed. and in short, the problem OF
developing the country as an etnci-
ent physical equipment for human
society has hardly yet been
glimpsed.
Washington Heights is moving in
the right direction. 1t is to be hoped
that other communities on the West
Shore will join with them in a way
that will help materially in the rapid
and harmonious development of the
whole territory occupying the west
side of the river as Harrisburg does
the east side. If Harrisburg had begun
to study its municipal problems as
early and as intelligently as these
people have started to look into theirs,
the taxpayers would have been saved
thousands of dollars and the city
would have been a much better place
to-day in which to live.

Markets or Territory !

Some national advertisers seek
to cover territory. others hunt
for markets, and when they find
them, cultivate them.
Frequently they ask the aid of
good newspapers like the Tele-
graph in finding markets.
And when they find what they
are looking for they advertise in
newspapers.
Thus they not only reach con-
sumers, but they enthuse retail
ers to an extent not possible in
any other way.
Manufacturers more interested
in definite markets than In wide
territory are invited to make in
quiries of the Bureau of Adver-
tising, American Newspaper

Building, New York.

Stripped for Action
There have been numerous incl
dents of late wherein the Swedish ma
val vessels have been stripped for
action against belligerent destroyers
and submarines. and some OF the ma
val officers here in Stockholm say
they have rather regretted it has
never come to elbows" for they have
had all the drudgery of war with
none of the glory.
One of the newest Swedish torpedo
boast, the Castor, is commanded by
Prince William, second son Of the
King and very popular young man.
The prince is great favorite in
Stockholm but the duties Of the coast
patrol have kept him away for a
long time and his slim little gray
vessel has been one of the chief de.
tenders of Swedish neutrality.

Comic Opera Stars to
Appear in "World of
Pleasure'' at Auditorium

Well worthy of more than usual in.
terest on the part of local theater-
goers is the forthcoming engagement
at the Auditorium Sept. 13 Of "A
World Of Pleasure" one of the latest
of the celebrated Winter Garden spec
tacles to 60 on tour.
"A World OF Pleasure" is the most
expensive and colossal of all the stu
pendous Winter Garden shows to
come out of New York. There are 1875
people in it, including William Norris,
Conroy and lie Marie, Wanda Lyon,
Collins and Hart, Franklin Bate, Nc
Hahon, Diamond and Chaplow, Mar
garet Edwards, Helen Golf and Rosie
Quinn. From a spectacular viewpoint
this production outdoes anything that
has heretofore been attempted at the
Winter Garden. It is one big scenic
surprise after another, each a revela-
lion of color and beauty, while the per-
feet blending of lights, costumes and
scenery have made it more appealing
than any series of stage pictures here
tofore offered. One of the great and
elaborate effcts Of the nine huge
scenes is that Of the finale Of the first
act representing the melting pot Of all
nations.
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1916-09-06

Like all the Winter Garden shows,
"A World of Pleasure" has its famous
beauty chorus. OF course every must
cal play that goes on tour advertises
"a famous beauty chorus" But in the
Winter Garden productions this an
nouncement is based absolutely on
fact, as the Winter Garden is an insti-
tuition in the metropolis, drawing it's
patronage from theater-goers all over
the United States, it's management
could not afford to offer anything but
the best with it's plays on tour. There
are girls of all sizes and descriptions,
each and every one beauty, seeming
]y more fair than her chorus sister.
And how they dress! Dame Fashion
has been particularly kind to "A World
of Pleasure" and the gentle art of
the modiste has been exerted to its
fullest and most beneficial extent. An
other feature OF this latest extrava-
CANA is the charming music, there be-
ing fully two score of tuneful and mus
icianly melodies rendered by an eX-
ceptionally fine metropolitan orchestra
under the able direction of Mr. Samuel
Behman, one of the most noted OF the
Winter Garden conductors.

NATIONS CHARGED
WITH "P0ACH|NG"
Claimed Neutrality Laws Are Be
ing 1nfringed Upon by
Countries at War

Stockholm, Sweden, Sept. 5.-The
fear expressed in government circles
here that belligerent naval operations
in the Baltic this summer would
place a heavy burden upon the neu'
trality of Sweden seems to have been
amply justified by the events OF the
past few weeks. The Swedish navy,
small but efficient, has worked night
and day to keep the territorial waters
free Of infringement, bit despite this
vigilance submarines and stealthy
destroyers of the warning powers
have slipped into the three-mile limit
and stolen away with a prize.
Germany has been the chief offend
er of late, but the Russians were
guilty OF poaching earlier in the sum-
mer, and still holds two German
steamers taken within the three mile
limit despite the protests OF the
Swedish government.
Polite Apology.
The Germans seem to have adopted
the practice OF capturing a ship, TAX
ing of such supplies as they need,
and then releasing the vessel with a
polite apology. Recently a Swedish
ship, the Oscar ll-not the ark OF
peace but tidy little white steamer
belonging to the Svea Line-was cap
tured by German destroyer and
taken to a German Baltic port. There
every bit of lubricating oil was re-
moved fro mthe steamer and she was
allowed to proceed. The Germans
naturally expressed their willingness
to pay for the oil. They would pay
a fortune to anyone who could run
q cargo Of oil past the British block
ade.
The incidents OF sunk or captured
ships have many, but there have been
far more unheralded instances where
raids have been prevented by the
presence Of Swedish cruisers, Destroy
ers and torpedo boats. It is no easy
task to patrol coast line which
stretches from the northern crescent
OF the Gulf of Bothnia down through |
the entire length Of the Baltic and
out into the Cattegat, not is it always
possible to "chaperone" all the mer-
chants ships flying belligerent flags
and seeking the neutral shelter Of the
three-mile limit. 1t is no strange
sight along the coast to see a Ger
man and a Russian "lugger" churn-
ing the waters side by side, or to see
a German and an English ship pass
in the night without the slightest

Then the destroyer slipped to the
