Connect properly with the streets

slider the landscape in all directions

size Of the valley, the distance from
the mountains and the river, the rail-

The First Floor
In the basement, locate the heat

the first floor have several auditor

Attract Best Entertainments
I know of course, that all these
suggestions are very imperfect anG
some of them impractical in the form
have suggested. l know that the
old men and wise-acres will say il
Is the veriest nonsense, and that II
would be crime to spend peoples
money for such things. They will
say 1t would be better to spend it for
roads made of Goshen gravel. But
l expect us to have the gravel roads
pretty well along by 1925, for we
shall need them to run in on when
there is a service or chautauqua or
state convention Of politicians or IT.
rigators or farmers or dairymen or
beet growers or pure-seed men or a
conference or noted lecturer or a
grand symphony concert by a flock
OF orchestras and singers. When
there was convention large enough
to use the grand assembly, the audi
forums would serve as committee
rooms, and everybody could get in
that needed to. Where more privacy
was wanted, they could use the coun-
sci rooms and dressing rooms tribu-
tary to the auditoriums, where COM
mittees of twenty or thirty wanted
to confer.
For Use Of Country People
I would have people use Liberty
Temple for a great number or social
affairs not now enjoyed by the mass
Of working people and trainers.
With my improved roads and better
autos, with the vastly improved mail
and telephone systems, with the ex-
tension Of rural express and rural
delivery of pupils, with improved
daily news service, with more equal
division Of the hours of labor and of
the wealth produced as we shall have
1t under the new peace conditions,
with the Snake river plains developed
and populated, there would be some
thing doing about all the time at
Llperty Iemple.
For Religious Services
OF course, it will be asked what
kind Of religious services will be held
In the temple and I will answer that
question when the peace conference
1T Versailles tells us how to settle
the boundaries and government of
all the different peoples claiming
heir attention. II they can settle |

manage the thirsty children without
having to leave the room.
Park for Autos Condensed

/ =
The grounds would be laid off in
perfect form, and coated eight inches
deep with Goshen gravel. A row OF
hydrants ranging in a circle 800 feet
apart, would mark the outer bound
| airy of auto park number one, and
all autos parked in that belt woul.l
line up with MIGRANTS. Another row
o. hyrdants would mark the outer
boundary Of auto park number two,
anC there would be room ahead for
any auto in either park to pull right
out and pass into a street without
backing or humping other cars. A
third row Of hydrants would mark
the outer boundary of auto park
No. 3, and the same rule would
apply. II half of the autos in all the
parks wanted to move at once, they
would all move according to rule,
forward, left or right, according to
position from left or right street, and
there need be no collisions from
backing and maneuvering. All they
need do in case Of simultaneous
movement would be to go slowly till
they get the speed Of those ahead.
The purpose of the hydrants would
be to furnish water for the radiators
of the cars contrived by H. Ford of
Michigan, and the like. There would
be no mud puddle about the hydrants
for all waste would flow directly into
the sewer.
Skating Kinks I'm Winter
I would have the grounds laid out
so there would be skating Kinks in
the outer parts of the ground. A
circular belt somewhat like the pre-
sent race-track would be constructed
for that purpose just outside of the
outer auto park. When 1t was built
l would have a layer or two of crude
oil mixed in the gravel so it would
hold water. The drainage would be
so the water could be drawn
of into the sewer.
Wading Kinks in Summer
!. In the summer season I would
have one Of these Kinks filed with |
water in hot days, so the Riddles
could wade in it and feel the water
and sand between their toes. I would |
build it with top coat of sand for
hat purpose. If the water needed |
for the Riddles, the en-
sineer in charge of the heating plant
would attend to 1t. He would use
thermometer to guage the tempera-
ure and water for wading would
,nly be supplies on certain hours of
certain days Of the week, so parents
would manage the wading hours of
heir Riddles with assurance that It
would last always. At the inner edge
4 the wading rink would have q
hallow belt resembling as nearly as
'ossible the seashore, where the kid
lies could run footraces in the damp
and, or they could get In the shall
ow water and throw sprays with
heir toes as they ran. I have always
