A PILGRIMS PROGRESS


old. "A consultation decided us
to go on to Bruennen for the
night, because none Of us had
ever heard Of Bruennen and did
not know where it was, except
it could be reached by boat on
Lake Lucerne. The ride down
the Lake in the sunset is a thing
to dream of by winter fires when
one grows old. We chose the
"Freihof" hotel because Of the
landlady's sweet, kind face, and
lost no time in sinking into huge
Swiss pillows with a still more
huge feather bed as covering,
all so soft and clean and white,
the air being as cold as our late
October. Next morning a pretty
Swiss girl with cheeks like
peaches brought in breakfast,
coffee, with hot milk, white
rolls, unsalted butter and Swiss
honey as clear as amber. It was
the most enhancing view that
met our awakening eyes, snow
capped peaks, lofty crags
crowned with castles Tor hotels)
steep slopes green and smooth,
beautiful homes, tiny chalets,
orchards, vineyards, forests and
flowers and the lake shining like
green jewels set in silver. We
rode up "Funichlar" R. R. to
Axenfels and Axenstein; we
dined on top of the mountain on
a terrace overlooking the lake.
We tramped and drove over the
smooth, steep roads, every turn
revealing new beauty and every
one of us wanted to "build us a
tabernacle" and stay there. An
other sail of wonderful beauty
brought us to Flulen where we
left the lake with regretful
signs and took the train for
Bellinzona, a town in Italian
Switzerland. At Chiasso we had
more trouble over the "Dcuane, "
it being, a frontier station. The
r. R. passes through the Alps
all along, with scenery of UNI
rivalled majesty and beauty and
the climb up to st. Gothard, tun-
mel is managed by a series OF
tunnels arranged like a cork
| screw and is certainly a monu-
ment to Italian and Swiss engi-
neering skill. At Wassen a gen
tleman called our attention to
the church, a neat little building
on an eminence in the middle Of
the town, we travelled several
miles and again he called our
attention to ga church," more
miles and tunnels flew by and
again the Swiss gentleman in
sisted upon our admiring "a
church" Well, we thought to
ourselves, wonder why the
Swiss build their churches all
exactly alike. Again. "a church

Very evidently they have such intention ana they have no intention to harm It transpires now that nearly every stage play achieves success is later mt upon the screen The stage play. in a sense, is the raw material the The moving picture corporations only control the raw material Why should they produce the spoken play, iaii heir prestige and advertising value ,nat u wins then readapt the screen and exploit IL Ill unbroken continuity from birth to death
 That the theaters now producing spoken plays will ultimately be controlled at least in very large part by the large photoplay corporations seems inevitable The corporations the capital and that is all that is required If believe it to be to their advantage as they now to believe 10 annex the spoken stage, will be done.
 We think it unfounded fear that the stage must decline immediately under such an arrange ment That by means follows and we do not see why it should suspected. Already some of the most successful stage plays have been underwrltten by photoplay corporations
 The only thing fear and that appears to us to be rather remote is the photoplay corporations in financing spoken plays may have tendency to discriminate plays more adaptable to the screen that much delicate representing high order of art would be lost We do not think that that is likely to be a consequence. the contrary yAe believe the of the movie will be elevated and it has been considerably elevated within the last few years It was a pretty crude thing within the easy memory of and there is much crudty vet It appealed at only the lover of the bizarre It was the novelty of the thing at first that drew the audiences when the novelty was worn away there nothing to appeal to the lover of the artistic We think that it is possible to raise a skies without dragging angel down.

but a combination building seems a crime to my mind.
 Second: I agree with the. man who wrote the article this morning that il need not cost s1,500,0 900. It need not be constructed out of granite and marble and graft. I believe we can build out of concrete much more economically. and with the right kind O. engineers. so that it will last thousand years.
 Third: It need not be so close in as some seem to think. Many court houses are not in the business section. It could well be far as six blocks from Center and Washington. It should have an entire block that it may be a beautiful park and a semi park idea.
 Fourth: I do not agree with the writer who thinks we should divide the county. Many attempts have been made to divide our counties and they have all failed as they should. Back of all these attempts are two influences: selfish political ambition on the part of a few cheap para sites who think they can get county job and the in fluence of business interests bent on bringing a few more dollars to the town likely to get the new court house Much or our city. county ard state ex- pense is useless and onlv tends to breed discontent, inane socialism and bolshevism.

The Paper Trusts Warning and Advice

Wages twice as high as>they were two years ago. The price of wood pulp is not twice high Nothing is " high except the profits paper trust. Yet the price of paper has quadrupled the past four years.
 The paper this warning couples it with admonition to publishers conserve paper little possible. That sounds noble-dis- irterested-even self-sacrificing-a willingness O profits larger canaouflage in which the trust safely indulge. It knows very well that the warning will not be widely needed if at all. While there is some, perhaps. great waste paper is nearly as much of it as we are led suspect, and such there continued by the wasters until they forced by actual shortage reform paper trust will see that there will be no actual shortage for those who pay the price. There will be only enough of a shortage make the victims yield to the exactions trust.
 The great majority of publishers are not wasting paper They are not using more but in less than their readers and advertisers demand The lure of business prompts most of them, perhaps, more than the visible and prospective supply as manipulated by the trust that they are all skating rather thin ice take some thing than warnings from the paper trust to make them seek wider margin safety, and the paper knows

MEASURING TIME

n the cathedral at Pisa there is a long chandelier suspended the roof and one day Calico that this chandelier, swinging II a draught seemed take the time to move o whether it went fast slowly The faster it went further it but the time that 1t took to go and return seemed always the same. Calico swings with his pulse; ;and when that con- frmed his observations he worked out the principle of the pendulum, which mankind depends for its clocks and watches other modern means of meas uring time.
 principle is that the time required for each swing excursion" depends entirely the length of the pendulum and Cat the same distance rom the center of earth) is always the same, regardless of the distance that it swings.
 Calico died in 1642. Before his day time was measured by shadow of the dial, or the burning of candle, the fall of sand water through hole.
 curious thing about time Is that one can parts of it direlty against each \ other. Two sticks be laid side by side, the same measuring rod be laid against them both bring back yesterday to lay 1t beside today Time only be measured by the things that happen in 1.-the changing shodaw, the flowing sand the burning candle the swinging pendulum, and the moving hand of the clock
 All these involve change of place. If time made no changes in place could be measured at all and when it is measured by these changes one simply takes for granted that equal changes take equal If the pulse and the pendulum. the sand and water the candle and the sun, were all speeded up together place would be nothing in time itself to show that everything going faster than before.
 That is what is meant by the 'reativity of time. which plays so large part in Einsten's movies

 WASHINGTON.-A is losing population, for the first time since 1907, immigration and emigration figures show.
 For the five months of July, Au- gust, September, October and No- vember-Iatest compiled by the inn migration bureau-the immigrants to America totaled 125,00O. The emierants numbered 144,o00, show ing that 19,00o more persons went to Europe than came to America. Incomplete figures. compiled since November show that the same tendency exists.
 For a short period in 1907. when the country was suffering from panic more people were leaving the count~J than were coming in.
 The figures show that southern Ytal- ians are returning to Italy.
 During the five months ending last November only 1.060 Greeks landed in America, whereas 11,50e of this race returned to the old world.
