PREDICT SMALL TOWN BOOM
Residential and Industrial ReadJust-
ment May Come During the
Next Twenty Years.

Is this country to see very soon q
"boom'' of the smaller community as
contrasted with the great city2 The
editor Of the William Feather Magazine
of Cleveland suggests it, as follows:
"Within the next twenty years 1t
seems certain that two movements
will take place that will enlarge the
small town.
Zone of these will be the migration
of business and professional men and
their families to towns OF 5000 to
20 1000 located within fifty-mile radius
of cities in which they work during
the day.
.srhe other will be the decentraliza-
ton Of industry and the movement Of
both factories and working forces from
the city to the small towns.
with improved living conditions,
factories will favor small town sites,
figuring that they will thus reduce their
labor turnover, and save enough in
overhead, taxes and interest on ex-
pensive city sites, more than to COM
pensate them for the disadvantage Of
doing business in a small town.
IF this adjustment does take place
it will solve many of our most per
picking problems, for there is no ques-
ton that our cities are getting too
big. A city, like a business, can get
so large that the law of diminishing
returns begins to operate. 1t is an
established principle that when a
business grows beyond certain point
the return on the capital invested
decreases.
'The same principle applies to cities.
Big cities have such problems as trans
portation, housing, health, fire and
police protection, from which the
small town is largely free.
1.-THE factors which are doing much
to hasten this decentralization are the
automobile, the motion picture and the
talking machine, all Of them recent
inventions.
1.-THE automobile has shortened the
distance between the small town and
the big city by 20 per cent.
1.-THE motion picture has given the
small town the cheapest and most popu-
lar form of entertainment ever de-
vised, while the talking machine has
enabled the people to hear the worlds
best music. right in their own homes.

Following correspondence with Of
Acers of the American Forestry as
ISOLATION, Colonel Sheriff., the engineer
officer In charge Of public buildings
and grounds, has arranged to label
the principal trees in Washington
parks, so that everybody interested

at the trunk and screwed securely into
place. On the surface of this plate
Is fastened an aluminium plate show
Ing in embossed letters the common
and scientific names Of the tree.
These plates viii be placed on about
1000 rees, including all the rare and
least-known specimens, and as many
Of the indigenous and better-known
specimens as possible. 1t is said that
the collection of trees in Washington
includes one or two specimens of prac-
tically every tree In the civilized world
that will grow in that climate.

Police officers have positively iden-

automobile theft and subsequent al
tack on Flint police detective as
Fred Jumbo" Webster, we'll known

Webster was held here in connec-

in which bullets narrowly missed
McCann's head as he was leaving
his garage after running his car in

On nine different pages OF the
police records Of 1920, Webster's
name is found, the offenses ranging
from highway robbery 70 lettering
and stealing rides on railway trains.
