COOPERATION LIFE TO CITY
Community Which Does Not Encour.
age Growth OF individuals and
Industries Cannot Thrive.

Speaking before the gathering OF
business men of Baltimore at a ban
quet in his honor, Charles NJ. Schwab
said: /" No large industry can thrive in
a community unless 1t enjoys the good
will and the support of that commu-
nifty"
That statement is as true Of the
small industry as Of the large INDUS
try, and 1t is true of the Individual
business man as well.
And there is also truth in the state
ment that the community cannot
thrive which does not give to the indi-
viduals and to the small industries as
well as to the large industries stu
ated therein every encouragement to
growth and expansion.
Cooperation is the life Of the city.
Without it there can ba no city in the
true sense. There may be an aggre-
CATION of houses, of businesses and OF
people-but that does not make a city
as we know the city today.
The true city Of the twentieth cen
fury Is a place Of schools, a place OF
churches, a place of wide and well.
paved streets, a place of Fairgrounds
and of parks, a place of beauty and a
place Of culture.
It is as well a place where every
mon who is doing his share for the
mutual welfare is receiving his share
of the credit and the profit; where the
new industry is given local support in
the period when that is needed and
still receives that support when 1t
reaches prosperous maturity; where
the farmer who brings In the product
Of his labor may be sur of a market
at a price that is fair and just; where
the stranger receives every considera'
ton and is not robbed.
In short, the true city Is a place
where people can live in happiness and
contentment, ecure in the enjoyment
of pleasant homes, loyal friends and
prosperous business conditions-and
without the spirit of cooperation 1t Is
impossible for a city long to exist.

MANY OHIO FACTORIES ON
PEACE BASIS.

Toledo, Ohio, March 16-(By Union
Associated Press)-Many of the fac
tories in Northern Ohio engaged in
making war munitions for the Allies
expect to complete their contracts not
later than March 20, although a few
will run until April l before finishing
their orders. Most of the shops are
on a peace basis. In all, about 5000
men III employed in making mater
ial in this territory. About one-half
of these have already lost their jobs.
All, however, have obtained employ
ment, as there is a scarcity of labor
in this section. Large numbers have
left for Canada to work in the NUM-
ton factories there.

A Civic Prayer.

For our comfortable living, for our
fair surroundings, for u many bless
ings which the poor must lack, we give
hearty thanks; and we resolve that
from what store we have, a little more
than we can comfortably afford shall
be given to those servants of the poor
who seek to cheer forlorn homes, to
lift up weary lives, to open the path
Of opportunity, to remove old evils, and
to cure the plague Of poverty at Its
very sources. This Is done in the hope
and faith that (our city, will thus
become q fairer and better home for
ali alike, and that virtue, courage. and
peace will increase visibly among us
and bless (our city, among all cities,
forevermore. Amen.-Frederick Almy

SCHOOL GARDENING NOT FAD
Tendency In Some Quarters Not 70
Regard New Development Serious.
" 10 Decried.

The federal bureau Of education OF
the department of the interior has is
sued a pamphlet, Gardening in Ele-
mentary City Schools" which covers
the progress and prospects Of school
gardening. The testimony presented
by school officials from cities Of more
than 5000 population in all parts OF
the country indicates that while gar
den work Is offered in the schools OF
about four hundred cities and enthu-
siastically praised by the school OIL
Gals of these cities, there is still a ten
dency in some quarters to regard 1t
merely as another educational fad.
This it certainly is not. The United
States is still an agricultural country,
and the teaching of gardening brings
the schools at n point closer to the
real BUSINESS of the country than any,
thing else taught, says the lndianapo-
lis News.
But of course there must be some
system about teaching gardening. The
natural desire for a garden must be
cultivated and conserved, SO that the
transition from play to work a be
accomplished. This Is the problem OF
| the educators. Many cities have COM
planned that they cannot get good
teachers to undertake the work. The
school authorities will have to cult
vate teachers as the children cultivate
their gardens-that is, If they are to
meet the demand. For it appears
from the government report that school
gardening has won its place. 1t has
developed the home garden under
school supervision, and this has proved
not only its educational worth, but
| also its economic worth.

AIR FLEET TO
 BE RUSHED TO
 FIGHT GERMANS
Twenty Thousand Planes Will Be Constructed By United States
 Immediately
AEROPLANES FOR SPEED

WASHINGTON, July 25.-With the signing yesterday by President Wilson of the appropriation Of $64O, O,O00,O ,O00 for aeroplanes, a cam paign against Germany will soon begin. Over 2O,000 aeroplanes will be built in the United States. An increment requiring thousands Of aviators will be the first task. They will be instructed and formed in- to a vast army of American flyers.
 According to official advices, Germany, realizing the danger of an air campaign, is already fever ishly building airplanes to fight the fleets that are to be sent to oyerwhelm her. The element of speed is therefore foremost in the building of the American air fleet. All industrial records for the de- velopment of the new art must be broken in rushing through the pro gram to completion.

DEATH FOR TREASON.

PETROGRAD. July 25.-Russian official statements admit the ease with which the Germans broke the Russian lines in Galicia uncovering the Russian positions south of Tar nopol, forcing the retirement all along the diagonal line southwestward and cutting Stripa and Zlota Lipa to Halicz and the Lomnica river. The Russians were obliged to retire to the right bank of the Lomnica and Halicz was seriously threatened with the prospect of further retirement to the original Russian positions east of Stanislau and occupied before General Brusiloff's advance.
 A general agitation for the restor- ation of the death penalty for in subordination in the army and treas 0nable conduct by agitators has been started. Gen. Korniloff. commander ot the southwestern front has ordered all subordinate commanders to open fire on the deserters and troops re- fusing to obey orders. Premier -Ker- ensky sanctions the efforts to re- store discipline. Many Maximalists whose agitation is considered respon- sible for the demoralization of the troops has been arrested.

GERMANS LACK FORCES
Admit British and French Keep Them Too Busy To Transfer Men
 To East Front

LONDON, July 25.-The Russians have rallied according to official statements received here today di- rect from Petrograd. Large re- serves of men are to be rushed to the front and Premier Kerensky, with vast powers, will weed out the disloyal elements rapidly from the front ranks and replace them with dependable troops.
 An official statement says that Kaiser William has arrived on the Galician front and he watched the Germans repulse the Russian at- tack from the plains of the Sereth River between Tarnopol and Trem- bola. -s 4
 Despite the Russian retrograde movement covering virtually all the front between the North Galician border and the Carpathian foot hills the general tone of the un- official dispatches from Petrograd show confidence that the disorgan- ized army will be adequately dealt with and a firm front again pre- sented. The Germans admit that they do not have enough men to prosecute a sustained offensive on a large scale because the British and French are keeping them too busy and they dare not transfer large numbers of the troops from the Western to the Eastern front.
