Will Organize
Improvement Club

For the past week the question OF
having a north side neighborhood I'M
proyement club has been agitated by
SONG of the rome living north OF
TIE rai'rcad.
The idea has been so favorably re-
ceived that it has been decided to
meet tomorrow evening and organ
ize a club to help clean up the north
side and keep it clean.
For tomorrow night the meeting
place will be the waiting room at the
Virginia and Truckee depot, and the
hour 7:30.
1t is hoped the women OF the north
side viii come out to this meeting
whether they have been spoken to or
not. 1t is a matter Of interest to all
living in that section
Several men have promised work
| and teams when the work is once QUIZ
lined.
The object of the club is to- clean
up and keep cleaned up. 1t is to be
kept strictly out of politics.
Remember the time and place

The Fallon Eagle states that Mr..

Lake City stated that the Fallon beet
sugar factor had been sold to people
connected with the Idaho-Utah Sugar
company and that he had been elect

every reason to believe that the new
company will not only adjust affairs
SO that a large acreage can be planted,
but will even open the way for enlarg-
ing the plant and cultivating thous-
ands of acres of beets.

AFTER GRADUATION from tse

HORTLY AFTER from The
- Massachusetts, Institute of Technology, about
twenty-six years ago, c. A. Stone and f. S. Webster
formed the firm of Stone & Webster to do engineering
work in connection with small electrical plants. The
science of electricity was i'll its infancy, but Mr.. Stone
and Mr.. Webster realized that there was a small, as
sured field for a consulting electrical engineer, and
that there were great possibilities for technically
trained men who were not too technical to appreciate
business features, and were not too much business
alien to fail to judge property of technical matters.
By the early COS the firm was engineering and super
vising the construction of power houses OF CONSIDERS

Gently organized in New York and so widely
annourced, selected Mr.. Stone to be its president.
The purpose of this new corporation, as popularity un>
derstood, is the development Of industries in foreign
countries and the extension into those countries oi
American enterprise supported by the capital OF the
American people. In selecting Mr.. Stone. Mr.. Frank
A. Vander.ip said:
1t was management, not money, that exercised us
brains, practical experience, Judgment, vision, energy,
plus patriotism. His firm, Stone & Webster, had at
tanned phenomenal success in traction and public
utility fields i'm a very broad way, and by high grace
high minded, unimpeachable business methods. Inc
firr1 stood at the top in its sphere. Mo one has ever
pointed a derogatory finger at Stone & Webster. he
had built up an organization which if it had played
football, would have played good football because II
understood and practiced team play.

Iierog.yphics will recognize in it a character sgnifying
motion-the great mystery OF the Universal Pan.
Every primitive race (%ncluding our own Mound Build
ers> has used it to express mans conception OF the
Infinite and Universal Whirl.
IN HE ITALIANS have a proverb which proclaims
"a rolling stone gathers no moss" This may
be taken as a fearsome threat, or as a joyous, golden
promise. 1t all depends on whether or no you are en-
gagged in gathering MOSS. The stone that has no de-
sire to settle down and devote its existence to collect

A PREHISTORIC KG%NDERGARTEN lesson in
N architectural design is to the effect that objects
OF lesser diameter at the bottom are intended TO be
moved about at will and have no permanent abiding
p1ace-that is why correctly designed table and chair
legs are smallest at the floor. Objects whose bases are
larger and broader than their tops are recognized as
sturdy and permanent-hence pillars are larger at the
base Line. Man, in his enduring works, has recognized
this elemental fitness since he scratched his thoughts
on the walls of his cave. Perhaps he learned it from
Nature, for that is tie principle She uses in her perlna-
nent works-mountains for example, and, to a lesser
degree, trees; and to a sti1G lesser degree those OF her
works which are still loss lasting.
-" HE developed this idea to a point
approaching perfection in their pyramids, which
we're intended to outlast the race-and did. The pyra-
mind, in proportion and form, represents mans supreme
effort to erect a structure which will approach our
ideas of permanency. Built of the same material no
other structure, varying in the smallest detail, WIFI
Withstand the ravages Of time as long as will the per-
feet pyramid. One plane OF the pyramid forms a TIL
aneL. Whatever may be the purpose OF the structure

typifies STABILITY.
