the southern parts OF the city an
abundance OF bird houses. specially
designed for different sorts OF song

An interest in bird neighbors was
cultivated by a real estate develop

since then has been kept alive by
residents of the section. Lecturers,
expert on bird life. were brought to
Kansas City, types OF bird houses
acceptable to different varieties OF
feathered songsters, were displayed,

the district.

famed with patriotism. Their popu'

SAYS.PERsONAL
TOUCH LACKS IN
BIC UTILITIES

Under the title. "A Square Deal for
Public Utilities" Golfers in Its issue
OF March 12 says: There is an ex-
PLANTATION, somewhere. OF the lack OF
good will be shown by the average
community toward the public-utility
company that serves It with light.
heat. and power. One reason, we
think, has never been fully stated: II
the power and light companies were
owned and controlled by one or two
men, and named after people, as the
majority OF our big enterprises are.
we would be apt to have a more
friendly feeling toward them"
Golfers feels that the human ele-
ment fails to enter into the public
utility business to sufficient extent.
The customers OF the utility fail to
see or meet its managers and stock
holders and they do not meet them
as they do the proprietors OF other
large industries in the community.
TOT Iut tdIlt Itdooh 'hiASE'o VI
many OF the utility companies fail to
have a personal interest and reflect
their attitude in their dealings with
the public. On the other hand, in our
leading western cities we often find
the managers and directors Of our
great public utility enterprises, are
among our most public-spirited citi-
zens. They take hand in every COM
munity activity and lead in public
welfare, civic. commercial, and indus
trial activity. giving unsparhgiy OF
their time for the public good.
Golfers article states that accord
ing to figures prepared by the Cham
ber Of Commerce OF the United States
1T will require ss52.6oo.ooo prop
erly to equip the 100000 'houses
and apartments watch this country
now needs. with heat. light. tran
sportation and telephone facilities
This money must come from the big
and little pools OF peoples savings
and these pools will yield investment
money only when tempted by securi'
ties which guarantee fair return.
"one Of New York's newspapers
has lately been printing letters from
the chairmen OF public-service com
missions of different states which
tend to show that the outlook fol-
publio-utility securities is on the
mend. that public-utiiity problems
are gradually being taken out OF pol
itics, and that a better public atti'
tude toward public-utility enterprises
is being developed. But haste is be
ing made slowly.
America must move forward, and
the speed and comfort with which she
moves will depend in a large meas
ure upon her ability to produce, a
