BACK TO EARTH.

We had to speed up during the war. 1t
didn't matter how much it cost to get a thing
done, just so it was done fast. Hence 1t fire.
quently was considered all right to pour money
down the sewer. just so it produced speed.
We've got to get that idea out OF our heads"
says the general manager of q big corporation.
Mark you, / don't mean that we can slow down.
We've all got to buckle in and work harder
than ever-to make business good again and to
pay off our ormo national debt.
During the war, my Office went on a tele-
graph and long distance-phone basis. I'm hav-
ing an awful time getting that idea out of their
heads. When they want a pencil, their first
thought still Is to wire for it.
We've got to get rid of that idea-and go
back to the old-time way Of doing things on an
economical basis, back to a postage stamp in
stead of a telegram schedule. Expenses have
got to be pared to the core. The individual and
business that economic are the only ones that
can survive. The wartime spending drunk is
over. This is the cold gray dawn Of the morn
ing after"

REPAIRING SMITH STREET.

Good work is being done in repairing the troll
ley track on Smith street at the High street
crossing. The EVENING NEWS called atten-
ton to this particularly dangerous spot a short
time ago and suggested that II the city was going
70 wait until the Public Service Railway Com
pany did this repairing 1t would be a long wait.
In the meantime traffic from the ferry up High
street on the way to the bridge will soon be IN
full swing and for the sake of the reputation OF
the city. at least. something should be done.
The paving between the rails at this point
is now being relaid. While this is the most
important point. perhaps, the work ought to be
continued all the way up Smith street to the
railroad. Every crossing is in bad shape and
the whole street is made dangerous because of
the necessity of running on and off OF the track
all the time. humping over the rails. due to the
narrowness of the thoroughfare.
But such work as Is now under way is graft
flying; 1t will help a great deal in making Smith
oye,reet more passable.
