Would You Keep Young?
Then Fall in Love.

One good method of retaining your
youth is to fall in love.
recently saw a five-reel moving pic
ture in which man is portrayed max
ing extraordinary endeavors to get back
his youthful spirits. He had appar-
emily grown old prematurely,' for his
appearance would hardly indicate a
greater age than 80 or 40. He planned
house party to which he invited some
of his boyhood companions, men and
women who had married and grown old
in the meantime, but who accepted the
invitation nevertheless. He endeavored
to bring back the keen enjoyment of
youth by indulging in the pleasures that
they had enjoyed so much in those ear
lier days. But his efforts We're fruit,
less. they were unable to enter into
the spirit of youth that he was trying
to create. This was only one of his
many attempts to win back youth, and
they were all failures until he acct

MEMORIAL TREES
FOR HIGHWAYS
President Harding Heartily
Approves Beautiful Com
memorative Idea

President Harding has given his hearty
approval to the movement for plant
ing memorial trees along important high
ways of the country in honor of the
Americans sacrificed in the great war.
In doing SO he truly said: 1t would be
not only the testimony of our senti-
ments, but a means to beautify the
country, which these heroes have served"
Certainly there could be no more beau
tiful memorial, none more dignitied than
great tree, and we hope the Presidents
endorsement will mean an increased re-
gard for trees generally and the plant
ing of many trees not only along high
ways but in other places.-New York

The Hole in the Road

The highway past u persons home
or place of business constitutes his |
connection with the world Without |
it the individual would revert to print !
tive isolation. Moreover, that highway
belongs in part to the individual for
it is built with his money. Whether
the road be good or bad, the individual
is a partner in the enterprise.
A hole in the road near ones home
concerns one personally and directly. If
one happens to drive frequently the
hole assumes the proportions of a major
public issue. 1t may appeal to the in
dividual as of more Importance to him
than the tariff, the currency, or the for
eign policy of the nation.
Millions are spent annually on Ameri
can highways. Many thousands are
wasted, and one of the chief sources of
waste lies in neglecting pavements after
they are laid. As soon as that hole
in the pavement in front of your prop
erty appeared it should have been some
body's particular business to repair it.
Such hole is much like cancer
readily cared for at the start, but rap
idly spreading and becoming more malig
nant if neglected.
President Harding doubtless had in
mind this hole in the pavement-this
hole you are especially interested in
when he told Congress on Tuesday that
it should be the policy of the federal
cal authorities in road building to in
sist that pavements so laid shall be
afterward maintained properly to avoid
waste. "Patrol and constant repair" was
the phrase he used.
They do this better abroad than here,
though in some states in America the
Importance of patrol and constant re-
pair" is recognized. If it is worth while
to spend millions in good roads every
year it is obviously worth while to main
tain them in their improved condition
afterward. fatrol crews equipped with
materials for quick repairs should be
constantly on the alert for signs of
trouble In other countries hole in
the road is not allowed to become a
cancer beyond control. 1t is fixed forth
with. 1t should be so here.
If American highway authorities want
to make themselves solid with those
who own the roads-that is, with Mr.
Average Citizen and all his kin-they
should take hint from President Hard
ing's message to Congress: "Patrol ant
constant repair" That's a slogan tina
sounds good to us.-Cleveland Plail
Dealer.

IN MEMORIAM

In loving remembrance OF my dear
wife, Myrtle Eklund Keith, and daugh-
fer. MYRTLE Pauline Keith, who de-
parted this life May 10, 1918.
Three years have passed my heart still
sore,
As time goes on I miss them more
Their gentle smiles their loving faces
No one can fill their vacant places.
God called them home, it was His Will
But in my heart l love them still.
Their memory is as dear today
As in the hour they passed away.
Gone but Sadly missed,

Saving the Trees

Statistics supplied by the State De-
partment of Forestry in Pennsylvania
show that 45,OO0,0O0 trees have been
grown under the supervision of that
department in the past twelve years. Of
these ll,5O0,0O0 have been distributed
directly to owners of land for planting.
The cost has averaged 1926 for each
1000 trees shipped Today these trees
are worth many thousands of dollars,
and the rcplanting of areas denuded by
forest fires besides providing valuable
timber and conserving the water supply
has restored the natural beauty for which
several of these areas is noted.
Recently the State Forestry Depart
ment has supplied $4,000 young trees to
hospitals and other institutions for
planting on available grounds, where
patients may look after the trees and
find interest and enjoyment in their
growth.
There is an increasing movement
among the states to provide for refores-
tration. This movement will be greatly
encouraged if the Smell Bill is passed by
Congress. This bill provides for the
Federal Government to match dollar for
dollar the funds appropriated by the
States and will stimulate the planting of
trees on millions of idle acres, many of
which are unsuitable for profitable cul-
tivation in other ways.

2 NAVAL RESERVlSTS
in FATAL FIST Fight
AT CLOSE OF CRUISE
J.J. Goddard Cried Enough
Before Death Blow,
Says Report.
In QUARREL AT SEA
w. f. Harkins Under Arrest
by Navy Authorities at
Yards Here.
POLICE LEARN OF FACTS
Civil Officers Will Not Be
Called Into Case-Oc-
CURED on Pier.
POLICE LEARN OF FACTS

The trip of Eagle Boat 26. which
returned Friday night from a two
weeks training cruise for naval
reservists, had tragic ending yester-
day, when in a fist fight between
William F. Harkins and John J. Good
dard. both Of New York, Goddard was
killed.
The naval reservists had landed
from the vessel, which was tied up at
the foot of West Ninety-sixth street,
and were about to be released to go to
their homes, when, according to the
best information available last night,
a quarrel of several days standing be-
tween Harkins and Goddard developed
into active hostilities. After several
blows had been exchanged, it is said
Goddard dropped his hands and said
he had had enough. A swing which
Harkins had started for his antag-
onist's jaw could not be stopped in
time, and Goddard went over, the back
Of his head striking the stringpiece of
the pier.
Harkins ran back aboard the Eagle
boat and informed the commanding Of
ficer. who ordered the reservists back
on board and sent Lieut. t-Commander M.
w. Vernon, a medical officer, to examine
Goddard. He found Goddard dead, ap-
parently from a fracture Of the base
of the skull.
Harkins was placed under naval ar
rest ana later transferred to the prison
at the New York Navy Yard. The body
OF Goddard was taken to the Naval
Hospital at Flushing avenue, Brooklyn.
Though the fight occurred yesterday
morning and there were many witnesses,
no news OF it leaked out until last night
Reservists who were aboard said they
had been told to keep silent about the
affair until after the court of inquiry.
1t ives said that Capt. Voselgesang,
commander OF the Third Naval District.
visited the vessel and examined several
witnesses personally.
The police were not informed OF the
fight and knew nothing of 1t until they
heard 1t from outside sources. They
then made inquiry and were provided
with the bare details, but not the ad-
dresses Of the men involved. No report
was made to the office of the County
Medical Examiner. who is usually noti-
fled of violent deaths within the city.
1t was said it would 5e a strictly navy
affair and that the civil authorities
would not be called in.
All access to the pier where the Eagle
boat was moored was barred by sentries
last night and inquirers were told no
information would be given out.
