Public euiIdinq Architecture.

It is an unfortunate circumstance
that the concept Of architecture" to
most persons, is limited to libraries,
art galleries and other public build
fngs. These they feel, are "architec-
ture;" and architecture" 70 fulfill the
most popular conception of it, must
have Greek columns, and be executed
in stone, on q scale more or less grand,
and at an expenditure OF equally con-
spicuous scale.
So far as this general popular eSti-
mate goes, it is an excellent and high
" desirable thing. The people or
every town and city, the people even
OF every village, should be keenly In
terested In the architectural merit OF
every public building which is being
erected with city funds. They should
demand the highest order OF archl-
tectural merit and should come to
learn some Intelligent discrimination
between architectural merit and fl
nancial expenditure. The library, for
example, in q neighboring town may
have cost several thousand dollars
more to build than the library in ones
own town, but ii may not be neces-
sarily better Observation-Disclosures

"You May Have Seen This"

The woman was 50 elderly the pas
sengers concluded the child she carried
must be her grandchild. Anyhow, she
was elderly enough that without her
burden, she should have been entitled
to a seat IN the car. But the seats
were already taken, mostly by women.
1t happened that the strap the ola
woman elected TO cling 10 hung dl-
rectly over the head Of a young man III

PREPARE FOR HOME GARDEN
National Health, as Well as Conserva-

Planting of Many This Season.

The home garden this coming season
will mean more than it did last year
or ever before. 1t is not only means
Of national conservation and patrlo-
tism; a measure of national health
lies within it. The man who can and
who fails TO put in a home garden
next spring will be Stacker. The
government stands ready to help ~
the garden. and government bulletins
on garden subjects may be obtained by
writing to the Division of Publications,
Department Of Agriculture, Washing
ton, y. c., for a list Of publications
available for distribution. Many OF
the state agricultural colleges. too,
have garden bulletins for free distri-
button.
Sometimes, in many states of the
Union, there is chance to pillow the
garden early. When that chance
comes the garden should be manfred
and plowed. Barnyard manure is a
source of weed seeding. but it is the
most satisfactory fertilizer usually OBJ

BIRDS PROTECTION IN PARKS
Subject Is Engaging the Attention Of
Town Authorities in all Sections
of the Country.

In many eastern cities, where the
winters are most severe, the park
officials maintain feeding stations for
wild birds Even as far up in The
frozen north" as Minneapolis NUM-
Der of such winter feeding places are
found in every park of their extensive
system. Theodore Wirth, the super
intcndent Of parks, says: "We have
a long severe winter and find it neceS-
Sary to feed birds regularly every day
for months if We are to hold them in
our parks for the summer. We have
also built ana placed a large number
of nesting boxes or bird houses Which
are Vel populated. We protect birds
in every possible way and the local
Audubon society is doing excellent
work 4 good many binds IF birds
which We're rarely seen her" few
years ago are now found IN large num-
herS. ana many which formerly LETT in
tn fall now stay with u over winter"
We have, in many parks, sufficient
shrubbery for cover, we are not trou-
hlrd much with eats, Yet park men
should lie required to XII all found
within the several larger parks and 70
keep none except single cat in each
storchouse. encouragement should be
given in every way to the increase Of
native birds and those Of bright plum
age and sweet song from other lands
should be introduced The country.
not the city, should perform the office
Of introduction Of new kinds. In a
climate so mild as ours there should be
a thousand-fold as many birds as we
now have and the parks should be
filled with them-Los Angeles Times.

GOVERNMENT

Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the governed. Governments likewise de-
rive their UNJUST powers from the consent of the governed.
When a form of government become tyrannieaL, its weapon is
always the same-fear.
To date, there has been conceived no government which, once
~ ell established, could not for a BRIEF space be converted to ds-
Toic ends.
The reason sums up in one mighty word-Organization. The
very system they sanction, sponsor. authorize and firmly esconce is
ever a POSSIBLE menace through a PROBABLE benefit to the gov
erned.
Organization will work great good or become a destructive force
to be dreaded if into it creeps an insidious element of INSCRIPTIONS
ness, a few human hogs or power-crazed personalities at the helm of
the Ship of State.
No matter what the form of government, should the above de
scribed condition ever exist within it the governed are placed at dan
gerous disadvantage through the power Of that formidable Organiza-
ton which is indispensable to government efficiency.
Government debased by debauched holders of office, is doomed
to short life, for the people will suffer only till they can combat Or
ganizaton WITH Organization
The calbre of any JUST government reflects the quality of the
: governed. Democracy is the most exalted expression of government
tai justice and equality. World democracy looms large ON the hori

to all who desire to enter into signed

should be lucky.
| Saturn and Uranus are SO posted
as to indicate deception inc intrigue
that may affect the government.
There is a forecast of many draft

DEMOCRACY

Experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer
while evils are suferablc, than to right themselves by aboi1shmg the
forms to which they ire accustomed.
The reluctance of individuals and nations to depart from the es
tablished order is the stigma of fear passed down the centuries from
-rutocracys darkest age.
Betterment of any kind o r condition requires that effort and
effort demands exerton.
There is one thing which the extravagant genus homo radically
ronserves-hs energy. Since improvement calls for exertion, man S
disposition to economic energy ordinarily explains the snai[like pace
of his progress.
But where the betterment involves social or political upheaval,
ybere II flies in the face of custom and defes vested the misusd au-
hornv. men finch, quail, hesitate and postpone.
Those feudal barons of the Black Era left indehble impress
which time has yet been insuffeienty passed to entirely eradicate.
n is the curse of the tyrant scared into the soul of the serf.
Democracy has done more to remove the blight than all else. IL
osters confidence, encourages faith in humankind and makes-etery
sen exert some effort sxpsaa-a0me sIsey toward individual and
yneral betterment.
Democracy has so liberated its possessors from the dread 10
read out of habits stride, that we've undertaken to rid the world
Of the last of its feudal lords, the last of its fear-breeders.
Future mankind will NOT be disposed to suffer evils rather than
abolish the forms which engender those evils and to which they have
been accustomed.

There is not a German ruler, from the kaiser down to the most
insignificant princeling who would relnqush ono iota of his power
if HE WAS NOT FORCED TO DO 1T.
By throwing a sop of suffrage to the people these rulers hope to
override the discomfort which is sweeping Germany from the Baltic
TO the Austrian border.
They hope to gain the confidence of the people to counterbat
the internal revulsion caused by the detection of Bulgaria and
the defeats ON the west front.
They hope to save their lettering thrones from the wave OF
democracy which will be born of military defeat.
