TURN OVER PARK
EXTENSION WORK
Commission Passes Out; Rail-
road Plan to Be OBJ
tained Soon

Having completed its important
work, the Capitol Park Extension
Commission has turned over to the
Board of Public Grounds and Build
ings Its records and all the important
documents which have to do with
the taking over of the property east
OF the Capitol for the enlargement
o. the State park.
Governor Brumbaugh, State Treas
urer Kephart and Auditor General
Snyder, comprising the board now in
charge OF this work. are deeply in
terested In the proper development
OF the tract In accordance with plans
already agreed upon. At the con-
cluding conference yesterday after
| noon. at which were present these
ofhcials and the members of the
Capitol Park Extension Commission
| and the City Planning Commission,
the final steps were taken with refer
| ence to streets which will intersect
the new area of the park. One OF
these streets running east and west
will be on a line with Aberdeen ave-
| nue. and another near the right of
| way of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
| Two other streets will extend through
the park east and west with q wide
plaza between. 1t Is also possible
that the street car lines may extend
as in the Boston park district through
subway along the fringe of the
| present Fourth street. This has not
been definitely adopted but is consd-
cred as feasible and practical plan.
VIII Lose No Time
No time will be lost by the Board
of Public Grounds AMI Buildings in
providing for the regarding and
planting of the whole Capitol Park
| area, which will include the elimi-
nation of the present wide walk on
| Third and Walnut streets and the
placing of new walks along the top
of the terrace on both these streets.
This arrangement will mean the
widening of both the highways in
question, much needed improve
ment.
At the conference yesterday it was
agreed that the next important mat
ter is to obtain from the Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad Company its definite
plan with respect to change of tracks
along the park. 1t is believed that
whatever is done now must be done
for the future and that the railroad
company, the state and the city must
cooperate in a final solution of the
problem.

SIMPLE TRICK WILL.
PREVENT A COLD
Number of Sick School Children Re
duced Where Health Nurses Instruct
the Pupils Relative to Diseases.

Colds may be prevented by knowins
how to blow your nose, according tt
Mrs Lena A. Warner, of the Division
of Extension, Of the University of Ten
nessee.
Mrs. Warner has been studying the
question of health for a number OF
years and traces most of the colds that
hinder school children in their WORK
to a lack Of this fundamental kncwl
edge
THE first thing boy or girl ought
TO do upon getting up in the morning,
says Mrs. Warner, is to blow his
nose. Then just before the school bell
tlngs do this again While the chila
is young ne forms the habit that he
will not forget later in life.
"ro blow the nose properly the
handkerchief should be hell loosely in
the palm and two forefngers of the
hand. One should lean forward slight.
iy. Bury the nose in the handkerchief.
but dc not touch the nose with the
thumb or fingers. Draw III the breath.
then blow Wipe the nose, then blow
again. Should one side of the nose not
feel clear, press the thumb against the
clear side and blow Repeat until each
side feels clear and clean"
In schools where health nurses are
engaged it has been shown that fol.
lowing these simple suggestions de-
creases the number of'colds among the
children.

mediately, prepared for extended
field service" Gen. Treats family
leave at the same time but will go
to New York. Il have no idea what
the order means, said Gen. Treat to-
day.
Among military men the belief is
general that Gen. Treat is needed to
lead troops in the field and that to-

During Gen. Treats absence Brig
Gen. w. r. Smith commander of the
artillery brigade, will be in command
of the Ohio troops, with Major Fuqua
as chief of staff.
The summoning of Gen. Treat to
Washington gave strength to the
rumor that Governor Cox finally had
persuaded the Wer Department that
the Ohio division should be command
ed by an Ohio man. Governor Cox
has been persistent in his requests
that Adjutant General Wood be made
a major general and that he command
the Ohio soldiers.
