BUFFALO BILL

Well, Bill you have crossed earth's
great divide
You've fought like a hero, finished
the ride
Which led from sunrise to the west
ern tide;
You met with the pilot with heart
indismayed,
You're resting now where the shad-
ows played,
When the sunlight shimmered in the
twilight shades
You saw the West before it bloomed,
You were there when the paleface
seemed to be doomed;
You helped to tame the Western Wild,
Nourished her ills like FESTIVE child,
And her wicked ways turned to the
mild.
The cactus thorn had no fears for
Yours, was the Pioneer spirit true
While the red skins arrows fell I'M
needed,
You, the kind the West SO sorely
needed.
Good bye old Scount, of the Western
trail,
The rudder is lost take in the sail;
But your spirit lives on the Western
plains
In the sigh of the wind,
In the drip of the rain,
From your rock-hewn vault on the
mountain crest
Your spirit will ride through the
Golden West,
And carve on the rock of the noun
tain pass,
ITO friend and foe he was true to
the last.

SP0TLEsS BLOCK TO A WARD
Philadelphia Civic Club Has Deter
mined to Try New Plan to
Clean Up City.

A spotless block in every ward of the
city, to serve as model to household
ers in the ward, will be striven for by
the Civic club this winter, the Phila-
delphia North American states. The
suggestion, which has been evolved in
an effort to assist the department of
public works to clean up the city, is
Endorsed by the newly formed munich
pal street cleaning campaign commit
tee.
The plan, as proposed by Mrs. Imo-
gene Oakley of the Civic club, is that
each ward branch of the Civic club
shall select a block which it will SUPER
wise. A committee Of women will visit
repeatedly all the householders in the
model block and get their promise not
to throw papers or waste into the
street; to keep ash and rubbisl boxes
clean and covered, and to aid in all
possible ways to keep that block clean
and sanitary.
The department of public works will
cooperate by instructing the street
cleaners and garbage collectors to give
special attention to that block, and by
providing receptacles for waste. If the
object lesson in street cleaning is sue
cessful, it will be extended to other
blocks in the ward.

n,IOWNRy
IS HELPS
WEEDS ALWAYS A DETRlMENT
Constant Warfare on Noxious Growths
Is One Sacrifice That Must Be
Made for Civic Beauty.

Where is our spirit of civic pride?
One wonders when passing to the end
of any important avenue or street in
the city. Vacant lots can be found
with a reckless wilderness of weeds.
For a while there seemed to be a
natural spirit of pride, beautifully e1-
pressed in certain suburban sections,
where the home owners are sufficiently
well endowed with earthly possessions
to carry into poetic effect the idea
beautiful. When we look over these
self-same garden spots of early spring
there is an unconscious feeling of de-
spain creeping into the heart.
Weeds are most unattractive. In
their virgin days, with their appealing
sheen of green, they offered seduc-
tive lure to the eye.
The veriest weed, so to speak, pos
sesses some claim to natural beauty
In the days of spring.
But in the autumn of the year weeds
grow strong, they yield only an atmos-
phere of danger. They are gaunt and
gray and dust-laden.
There is a more significant feature
to be considered. Uncut weeds breed
disease.
We would venture to say that if
the cases of hay fever in the city were
reported the general public would not
believe it, yet this most uncomforta-
pie of autumnal Affections is due, to
a great extent, to the weeds of sum-
mer growth.
The great trouble with most of US is
that we start in the early days of
spring filled with ambition and with
expectations of what the garden may
be made to yield in the later days.
After the miniature crop has been gar
nered we become neglectful. We per-
NIT the weed crop to harvest itself.
Vacant lots flaunt their jungle of
weeds, and unconsciously we suffer in
consequence.
If there is a law severe enough it
should be applied. If the owner of
vacant lot, or the owner of a back
yard has not sufficient civic pride to
cut the weeds, then the powers of the
department of police or of public
health should be invoked and the pur-
pose of the law be made effective

THE CRISIS

The crisis existing at present
with reference to the German
situation appears to be the out
crop of the undiplomatic attitude
taken by the Secretary of State,
Mr.. Lansing. In the early stages
of the interchanges of notes be-
tween the United States and
Germany, it has been clearly
seen that that Mir, Lansing was
not the man for Secretary of
State, and when William j.
Bryan quit the Cabinet the
administration lost an honorable
and conscientious statesman, I'M
biased and Embossed by any mon
ey power, clan or class within or
without the United States.
Rumors have been out at times
that Mr.. Lansing would resign;
our only regrets now are that he
did not. President Wilson, in
these trying times, surely could
have found a more diplomatic
man than the present incumbent.
And it would seem that the
present predicament in which
our country is thrown is the re-
suit Of misguidance, misconcep-
ton biasness and prejudice on
the part of this one man, and we
believe that diplomatic relations
with Germany were severed as
the result of his tactics. Other
neutral nations ssnave refused to
join this action and our country
stands alone holding out for a
few little technicalities in inter-
national law,
A few more days. weeks or
months of Lansing with a free
hand, will embarress the country
and it's people who want no war.

Golf Courses for Cities.

Though the idea is one of the new
est in municipal affairs, there are al
ready &c cities which have established
golf courses for the benefit of their
citizens and tourists, and a sufficient
number of others are preparing to take
the step to justify the expectation that
the total will soon be half a hundred
or more. 1t is worthy of note, too,
that the character of a city's popula-
ton, both adult and juvenile, improves
with COLTS growth in popularity. For
adults the game affords an outlet for
energies that might take a less whole

Native Trees Are Best.

Many people have the decidedly mis-
taken idea that the only trees worth
buying and setting out are the more or
less expensive shrubs or evergreens
which are not native to most sections
of the country. The idea of paying
out good money for pine or birch
or a maple seems to go against the
grain.
AS matter of fact there are many
places where such trees are to be had
for the trouble of digging them up and
transplanting them, but even this is
considered too high price. And yet
for many purposes pines and naples
are as good trees as can be had, and
there is nothing listed in the cata-
logues more beautiful and graceful
than a well-cared-for group of white
birches.
