NEED OF Definite PROGRAM
To Strike at the Essential Rather
Than the Incidental Is Object of
Best Commercial Bodies.

To strike at the essential rather
than the incidental, to get an organic
program and follow it unwaveringly
that is the object Of the directors
and executives of well-organized COM
mercial associations today.
There was a time when citizens of
many communities had a mixture of
right and wrong impressions about the
function of such organizations. They
were right in their recognition of the
need for a central directing force, but
wrong in their assumption that such a
force could be made 100 per cent eff
cient without intelligent, brOad-mind-
ed management and definite, con-
crete program, declares the Indian
apolis Star.
So commercial organizations have
gone through an evolution. The ten
dency today is to make them indis-
pensable business institutiOns-jus as
necessary to well-rounded city life as
a public utility or any food or cloth
ing distributor. The tendency is to
make such organizations ret1exes Of all
other business activity-a guardian of
commercial, social and civic interests.
Citizens in their collective capacity
speak and act effectively through such
/, an organization.
Large chambers of commerce in
many American cities have achieved
notable results for their localities by
adopting a definite program and stick
ing to it.
every community has it's own prob
lens, but there are certain lines of
work that have been found productive
very generally in all American Cities"
said Ernest N. Smith, general secre-
tary of the Indianapolis chamber of
commerce.
"The purpose of the well-conducted
modern chamber of commerce is to
establish departments of activity and
undertake programs of civic change
that will operate definitely at every
point to make the city larger or bet

Mad Artists.

Quite a number of eminent artists
have been victims of brain disorder.
Sir Edwin Landseer, towards the
close Of his life, showed signs of in
sanity, while the eccentricities Of Tur-
ner were quite Of the insane order.
Amongst other eminent artists it
might be mentioned that Sir Thomas
Lawrence suffered from symptom Of
brain disorder; David Wilkie lost
power of attention, and ultimately had
a nervous seizure which made his
speech incoherent; while Romney suf-
fered so much from the hallucination
that his talent would desert him that
at the height of his fame he thought
Of relinquishing his art altogether.

The Service Flag.

BY WILLIAM HERsCHELL, IN THE IN
DIANAPOLIS NEWS.
Dear little flag in the window there,
Hung with tear and a woman'S prayer;
Child of Old Glory, born with a star
Oh, what beautiful flag you are!
Blue is your star in its field of white,
Dipped in the red that was born of fight;
Born of the blood that our forbears shed
To raise your mother, the Flag, o'erhead.
And now you've come, in this frenzied
day,
To speak from window-to speak and
say:
81 am the voice of soldier-son
Gone to be gone till the victory's won.
81 am the flag of the Service, Sir;
The flag of his mother speak for her
Who stands by my window and waits and
fears,
But hides from the others her unwept
tears.
81 am the flag of the wives who wait
For the safe return of a martial mate,
A mate gone forth where the war god
thrives
To save from sacrifice other men S wives.
81 am the flag of the sweethearts true,
The often unthought of-the sisters, too.
| am the flag of a mothers son
And won't come down till the victory's
WOMB
Dear little flag in the window there,
Hung with a tear and woman's prayer;
Child of Old GLORY, born with star
Oh, what wonderful flag you are!

People Of Madrid OutdId American
Baseball Fans When Bull Fight With
Popular Matador 10 Announced.

Madrid Is the greatest bull fighting
city in the world. From her staid pro-
feSsional and intellectual classes down
to the smallest and grimiest urchin
vending newspapers on the streets,
every Madrilleno is a connoisseur Of
bulls and buY fighters Anyone who
thinks that baseball can turn its devo-
tees into temporary lunatics on the
day of worlds championship game
should see the people of Madrid when
famous matador is billed to meet
some of the ferocious Miura bulls.
Each of the weIl-known swordsmen
has his group of followers, enthusiasts
as they are called. any one OF
whom will stake his fortune or his
neck on the prowess Of his own par
ticular master as compared to all other
slayers of bulls. On the day of "cor-
rida" these enthusiasts flock about the
hotel where their idols are staying. to
greet them hours before the combat
with cheers and aduation. Early in
the afternoon the streets leading to
the plaza are choked with surEng cur
rents of humanity. all moving to a
single goal.
The plaza itself is a great amphithe-
alter with sanded arena for stage.
The arena is surrounded by a thick
brick wall. broken here and there by
tiny doorS-one door to the pens,
whence the bulls are lOOsed. another
for the picadors, who ride in on de-
crepit old horses. a third for the he
rOes of the day, the swordsmen, who
take the money and the glory of the
occasion without running any greater
risk than their humble subordinates.
On sunny day the arena is riot
of color. Picadors are dressed in vel.
low, the cape men," who turn the bull
wave gayly colored silk robes, the lit
tie darts which the banderilleros plant
in the neck of the bull are tipped with
flags, even the mules who haul out
the debris carry huge Spanish banners
in their headstalls. The matador is
the final glory, flaming from head to
foot in rich satin costume of green
or blue, heavily embroidered with gold.
He carries a flaming red flag to en-
rage the bull, and before the day has
gone far. the red of the flag is blended
with the red of blood

Snake Stops Water Supply.

Chenille, a hamlet three miles back
of Tarrytown, was without water Tues
day. It's only supply is obtained from
the Gypsy spring on Gen. Howard Car
rolls estate. The pipe that led from
the spring appeared to be frozen. so
William Van Wrinkle pulled the pipe
out of the spring and took it home to
thaw it out. There was CONSERVATION
in the house when a garter snake start
ed to crawl out of the pipe.
The snake had crawled into the pipe
during the cold snap Of Monday night
and had frozen in there. shutting off
the water supply. When the pipe was
thawed the snake was released and
tried to escape from its storage prison.
Van Wrinkle caught it and is proudly
exhibiting it in jar. While this story
has a Winsted flavor it is vouched for
by Van Wrinkles neighbOr.

"Panie Proof" Vies With Fire Proof.

According to a decision recently
made by Supreme Court Justice Cave
gan of New York the state industrial
commission may direct owners Of
buildings to make them panic proof
even if they were previously fireproof.
The court said: "The reasonableness
of the commissions orders depends d.
rectly on the question, is the building
safe from the danger of panic? Panic
may result from causes not confined
to a factory building itself nor af-
fected by its fireproof character. 1t
may be caused by smoke alone, or by
fire in a building adjoining or in the
immediate neighborhood, or by a con-
f1agration, or by hostile attack In
time Of war from land, sea or>air, or
by earthquake. or even by false
alarm"

More attention than ever before is
being paid this winter to careful use
of exhaust steam in power plants. 1t
may be applied to innumerable ,pur-
poses, such as heating feed water for

purposes. heating buildings. pasteuriz-

small investment in additional boiler

Children's clothes can be made after a

Here is an Alexandria story that

ways settled on my kidneys, causing
me much pain and annoyance. My
back ached; felt tired and unfit for
work and my whole body was stiff
and painful. The kidney secretions
were unnatural and contained sedi-
ment. Doan's Kidney Pills cured
the attack"

said: II cheerfully confirm my
former endorsement. I use Doan's
Kidney Pills occasionally for back
ache or other kidney troubles and
they always act as represented"
