as many charitable institutions, owe
much 10 this great and many sided
man, whose interests were as various
as his energy was inexhaustible.
The Immediate occasion OF the Off
clal celebration to-day is the fact that
Mr.. GREEN was historically and actu-
ally entitled to call himself the
Father of Greater New York. In
1868 he proposed plan for consoli-
dating Ia one political unit for eff
cient and economical government aud
development the towns and cities in
terdependent with the New York of
that day
This dream of coordination of con-
troll was regarded as a vain imagin-
Ing by many; ut first ii was consid-
cred beneath serious discussion. But
Mr.. GREEN never wavered for an in
slant in his advocacy of it, and In
fewer than thirty years he saw the
child of his enlightened mind an ac-
complished fact. Men now say the
erection of Greater New York was
inevitable in political evolution, but
ANDREW n. GREEN was the builder
whose provision by full generation
anticipated civic progress.
Cynics, rascals, time servers, rise
sometimes to little notoriety. Their
names are on mems lips for n mo-
ment. Then they are forgotten. But
men of faith and works like those
of ANDREW H. GREEN live on in the
grateful memories of their fellow
countrymen.

THE GROWING CHILD By the U. s. Pubic Health Service
General Home Care

To secure the best results in health work among children there must be close ,co-operation between the home and the school The work of the teacher will be much less difficult if the child has been trained in hygienic habits at home and the mother will find her efforts supple mented and her work strengthened by the teaching of hygiene in the schools, and the oversight of her child by the medical inspector and school nurse.
 Among the factors affecting the health of the child which are entirely controlled by the home, sleep is irnportan-. Cail- dren from six to ten years shoulf have about ten or eleven hours of sleep in the twenty-four. and from ten to sixteen years the amount of sleep should be about nine hours. Every child should sleep alone as far as this is possihle) in a quiet well-ventilated room He should go to bed at such an hour as will make it possible for him to secure sufficient sleep and awaken naturally enough to get to school on time without undue haste on the neglect of any duty he should perform
 before leaving home. The more out door life a child has the better he will sleep usually. On the other hand, g heavy meal in the evening, the use Of tea or coffee, much home study in the ev. enng, ebstructed breathing, earache | toothache, and similar conditions, are ap l to interfere with the child's sleep.
 If a sleeping porch is not available | the windows in the room should be oper so that the child may have plenty ot | fresh air He may be protected from drafts by the use of screens, and iron

NO ONE MAN CONTROL.

No one but Mir. Gcmpefs will be sur prised that he wasn't able to deliver the labor vote of the country to the demo- eEats, of that he wasn't able by the bringing to bear of determined efforts against certain candidates to prevent their election. MT. Gompers should have known, as organized labor fully under stands, that the labor vote is not de- liyefable. There are unions which will not permit politics to enter into their affairs and the man who belongs to a labor organization has just as good right to exercise his own judgment on election day as he has to determine what other organizations he will belong to.
 MT. Gonnpers in his fight had pre-elec- ton tidings that he would not be able to carry out his programme. Nearly two score labor leaders openly defed and fought his activities while the rank and file of organized labor voted as their conscience dictated rather than as MT. Gompefs told them to. It is only natural that they should feel that they had a right to do their own thinking in such a matter. Likewise Mir. Gompers has a perfect right to advocate as an individual whichever party ticket he believed in, and it was only when he undertook as the head of the great American labor organ, ization to tell the union men how they should vote that he found labor leaders all over the country protesting his ac- tion and working against it.
 The idea that such an organization car be used for political purposes has beer discredited on previous occasions bu none more so than during the contest a the polls this week. How many votes h, | actually influenced there is no way O telling, but in Iowa where he made sucf

The disposal Of the wooden ships that were constructed during the war erf1er- geney presents problem for the ship ping board to wrestle with. The difficult ties connected herewith are emphasized when it is underctcod that the efforts made on four different occasions to sell the ships have met with nothing but dis coursgement. No bids were received. ex- ccpt those that were presented with a view to junking the vessels. For vessels which cost $175 ton not one-tenth of that has been offered. They do not ap- peal to those who are in the market for ships and 1t is a serious question whether the government is going tc be able to re- alize anything at all by holding onto them
 Wooden ships were strongly opposed at the time such extensive efforts were made to build them. The contention of the opponents have been repeatedly up- held even though at the time of construc- ton the denand for ships was SC great that it was believed that certain bene- fit would accrue through the number that could be quickly obtained In view of the American attitude to- ward these ships 1t is rot surprising that there is feeling that they should be disposed Of to the best advantage in the markets of the world. If there are other countries which can and desire to make use of them and are willing to pay fig ure in excess of what can be obtained for them from the junkman there would seem to be no better way of disposing of them.
 The very fact that buyers for other countries would be given an opportunity
 to' acquire them might direct more at tention to them by possible American
 buyers. If they are not worth any more
 than junk price now they certainly will never increase in value by keeping. Whatever salvage is going to be obtained
 will amount to more as new vessels than as old and deteriorated ones. That a
 large loss must be taken is plainly indi- cated but the board must see that it isn't any larger than necessary. If they are such a poor investment they should be tafnei into cash without expensive delays
