gan TO dawn ana Colonel Allen real-
lied that II the attempt against the
fort We're 70 succeed he and his daring
expedition alust act at once.
Nothing daunted by the fact that
their force was so few, and making up
81 patriotic devotion what they lacked
IN numbers, Colonel Allen called for
volunteers for the perilous venture.
II do not urge any to enter on this
enterprise contrary to his will mas
much as 1t IS desperate attempt,
which none but the bravest Of men
dare undertake." cried Colonel Al
len. "You that win undertake volun-
tarily, polse your frelock." Every
man poised his firelock.
He Immediately formed Them infe
line and AT their head advanced on
the gate of the fortress The sentry
snapped his fuse at the colonel and
then retreated to the parade within

quickly followed and formed in the
parade. The garrison was asleep-all
but the sentres who did not fully
sense what was TRANSPORTING Allen
and his men gave three huzzas, and
one Of the sentries made a pass at one
Of the men with a charged bayonet
and slightly wounded him.
Allen was about to run him through
with his sword but thought better of
It and only slightly wounded him on
the head whereon he dropped his gun
and begged for quarter This grant
ed he showed Colonel Allen the Off

commander rushed and compelled the
commander Captain Delapace, to
come forth and deliver over the en-
tire garrison on threat Of putting the

"By what authority?" demanded
Captain Delaplace.
''In the name Of the Great Jehovah
and the Continental Congress" thun-
dered Allen, as he raised his sword
over Delaplace's head. In the mean
time the Green Mountain boys had not
been idle but had beaten down the
barracks doors and had about a third
of the garrison prisoners. With slut
tered expostulation the commander
forthwith submitted and the fort was
completely in the hands of Colonel AL

SHOWING CHARACTER IN HOME
Builder Should Express His Own Ma
ture And Not Follow Relgning
Style In Architecture.

The essential In the art Of home
building is the ability to suit your
own taste--to express your own ma
ture. Your taste may not at all coin
eide with that Of your neighbOr, but
that IS not important. There are as
many Individual expressions of the art
that Is within one as there are leaves
on tree, and there is no good reason
why the expression Of the individual
should not continue in the home itself.
For peoples characters do show in
their homes-in the architecture Of the
dwelling, the decorations within, the
selection Of the furniture, even in the
pictures and the way they are hung.
To persons who are not especially OBJ
servant this fact is as plain as the fact
that one can always detect the pres
ence Of feminine fingers in the ar
rangement of the bric-a-brac, the flow
ers or vase on the stand or the books
and magazines on the library table.
The thing is so palpably human that
1t is almost impossible not to recog-
nize 1t.
1t may never have occurred to you
how bound down most of us are by
conventions that someone else estab-
lished without our knowledge or sane
tion and which may or may not repre-
sent our ideals. And still we follow
them blindly. But it is a sorry fact
that most people don't build their
houses or their homes to fit their ma
lures. Rather do they try to make
their natures fit into the home which
they pay numerous other persons to
build for them.
They allow themselves to be made
slaves of convention, style or fad, and
their home is no more like them-no
more the expression Of their lives or
natures-than an automobile is like
flat-bottom boat. They go to the near
est architect, who tells them what the
reigning style happens to be at the mo-
ment, as if he We're planning to fit
them all with the latest Paris fashions
in dress or headgear.

House wIth spirIt 81 Ham,

Rich or poor we are all tempted, in
varying degrees, to build bigger houses
than our personalities call for. One
who is building a new house can hard
ly do better than follow that excellent
motto Of the Greeks, "Not too much" !"
Is not the first principle of house build
ing to make something which shall de-
pend for its effect, not upon size and
display, but upon its quiet adaptation
to the spirit of those who abide in It /:
something the value of which no one
shall be able to measure in dollars
and cents, something that is ones own,
ones home?

CITY PLANNING IDEA GROWS
Phase Of Community Activity Once
Regarded as Visionary Has TAX
en- Hold on Popular Interest.

City planning, which may once have
been regarded as the peculiar project
of meddlesome theorists, has taken a
new hold on popular interest in the
United States. New York city sup
plies one notable example of planning
activity, An examination of the causes
underlying disastrous slumps in prop
erty values in what was formerly a
congested district In the lower part Of
Manhattan Island showed that the dis
trict had been permitted to grow in
haphazard fashion without any fore
thought of the inevitable growth of
business section farther uptown. New
York business men saw too late that
such condition could have been pre-
vented, and they asked for and OBJ
tanned a planning commission.
Interest in city planning has been
awakened in Indiana. Fort Wayne is
the first city in the state to announce
preparations for a planning exhibit
tion, although the chamber of COM
merce of Indianapolis and several 9TH
er cities have been considering local
exhibitions as the first step in cam
paign to get law authorizing planning
commissions. The material and scope
Of these exhibitions can be adjusted to
local needs, but the purpose of all of
them is to visualize city planning as
1t is proceeding in other places, and to
show to the uniformed or skeptical
citizen that 1t has an intensely prac-
tical value.-Indianapolis Star.
