COVE COMMENTS


er and the knight, and thought at
first it was IA misprint with chance
for humorous skit, but the
schooner passed into the knight
alright.
Now that the new year is fairly
launched the critical question for
us islanders is the north end fer
ny and what will be the main land
terminus. There is a persistent
rumor that Fauntlcroy is to be
said terminous. It's a nice arts,
tocratic name but everyone ! have
discussed the subject with prefer
Seattle; for the good and sufficient
reason it will land the folks direct
at their destination. Automobile
and truck men prefer Seattle be-
cause it would save gas and wear
and tear by not having to climb
over the hills to and from Faunt-
leroy. Foot passengers are for Sc
attic because it will save time and
money by their not having to take
about one hours ride on the tram
cars to and from Fauntleroy, ad-
ded to which they are not over
anxious to risk their lives over
that beautiful trestle on the road.
1t might help the car lines a little
with the few added fares, but that
is a very small consideration in
favor Of Fauntleroy. And no one
would use the ferry who could
go direct by steam boat. The Va
shon paved highway was voted
on and carried with the idea that
the ferry would always run direct
TO Seattle, which without doubt
is the only reasonable tcrminous.
The whole proposition reminds
me of IA wheel, the commissioners
being the hub and the conflicting
interests the spoles. The tax-pay-
ers of King county, and Seattle III
particular naturally are interested
in lessening their taxes. Eliminat-
ing the ferry would perhaps ac-
complish a little in that direction,
but on the other hand, progressive
cities have ferries which are not
looked upon as direct paying pro
positions, but defacto as floating
bridges, to promote traffic between
lnsular or other points separated
by water, resulting in increased
trade by reason of facilities for
communication between the said
points.
In times past bridges and roads
were under the toll gate system
whereby all users of same had TO
pay for their use. King county fer
ries are operated on the same bas-
is, and we are not kicking be-
cause we have to pay a pretty
stiff tariff for their use, and if
there is deficit in the cost of
running the ferries, it IS greatly
overbalanced by the accruing adj
vantages both to the population
served and the trade they take
to the terminus. Assuming that
the ferry's terminus is placed ut
some point that will act as a de-
terrent to travellers the deficit of
said ferry will be greater. And
supposing that Tacoma for in
stance, offers greater facilities in
that direction the trade that now
naturally gravitates to Seattle will
fowto Tacoma. Railroads are and
have been built into unsettled
country, with the natural result
that settlers have come in, putting
the railroad on a profitable basis.
Ferries offer the same inducements
to prospective settlers and the
same results naturally follows.
The only reasonable common sense
terminus for the north end ferry
is Seattle.

RED CROSS RESCUED
100000 FROM DEATH
Spent 81 100000 for Relief of
Famine Sufferers in China
Last Year.

To help overcome conditions Of acute
distress In Ave famine stricken prov
inces Of Northern China, where mil
lions Of persons were affected by an
unprecedented shortage Of food, the
American Red Cross during the last
fiscal year spent more than sl,20O,OOO,
t1.0o0,0O0 Of which was contributed d.
recty by National Headquarters and
the remainder by various groups IN
terested In the welfare Of China
Through the wide relief operations
thus made possible 1t is estimated that
more than 100000 famine sufferers
were saved from starvation.
To the end that similar prompt re-
lief measures by the organization may
always be possible the Red Cross is
asking continued support by the Amer
lean people by universal renewal OF
membership at the Annual Red Cross
Roll Call, November IL to "a.
The method OF relief employed by
the American Red Cross in its opera
lions In China was particularly effec-
tive, for in addition TO saving hundreds
Of thousands Of lives 1t provided China
with more than 300 miles Of permanent
roads that are sorely needed to pre-
vent a recurrence of famine At one
time the Red Cross employed $4,000
Chinese workmen, paying them in food
for themselves and dependents, this
food being brought in from Manchuris
and elsewhere.

Charles NJ. Schwab was talking in
Loretto about the remarkable popular
ity of a new steel.
let me tell you," he went on, "a
story about shovel. Just hundred
years ago a number Of men were dig
ging a line Of railway between Bir-
mingham and Manchester The shovels
they were using had square-cornered
blades about fifteen inches long.
THE digging was hard and slow,
and one of the workmen suggested to
the boss that If he would grind on the
corners of the shovels they would cut
into the earth more easily and the
days output would be bigger.
1.-THE boss ridiculed the idea, but
the workman later on persuaded an
irOnmOnger in Sheffield to make him
a couple of dozen round-cornered
shovels as an experiment. These
ShOvels were submitted to the scoffing
boss for trial. The boss reported at
the end of q week that his diggers
were all turning up 10 or Is minutes
ahead of time in the morning so as
to get hold of one of the new round
shovels.
"The boss, the ironmonger and the
northumberland patented the new
shovel between them and proceeded &c
manufacture it in small way. In g
few years they were all millionaires.'

Childish Imaoination.

ut is difficult to learn to know
child nature, since 1t is continually
in the act of becoming different" says
V. Rasmussen in his work on child
psychology. This remark applies to
the development in the first four
years Of child life. The author is
emphatic in his opinion that little
children should, as far as possible, be
allowed to follow their own way.
Don't distract their attention unnec-
essarily, he says; rather come to their
aid when they are particularly at
tracted TO any one thing. Let them
develop their Imagination in their own
kind Of play.
1t might be natural to think that
the child's imagination is most health
lily and powerfully developed II it is
fed from an early age with tales of
wonder and fantastic adventure. But
this is a misunderstanding, says Mr..
Rasmussen.

Road Construction In China

The central government of China is
evincing considerable interest in road
building, and the ministry of the in
terror, which has charge Of highway
projects in conjunction with provin-
cial officials, is said to have prepared
a bill concerning highway develop
ment for presentation to the new par
lament, which is expected to meet in
Peking at an early date. Considerable
road construction is being conducted
in connection with the famine relief
work whereby the recipients of relief
are enabled to render compensation
for the food furnished them and thus
contribute to the permanent better
ment Of China's transportation facili-
ties, which will tend to minimize such
catastrophes In the future.-Scientific

CLOSE TO HORRIBLE DEATH
Youth Will Long Remember How
Near He Was to Being Trampled
Under Hoofs Of Cattle.


A yarn which may be branded as
pretty fair" comes out of the West,
remarks the Philadelphia Ledger.
A young man named Barker had
taken his bicycle to make a journey
of several hundred miles to inspect
some land. In the course of his trip
he crossed a large prairie field, bro
ken near the middle by a high trans
verse ridge.
When he had climbed the ridge and
mounted his wheel to proceed he no
ticed what the rise of ground had OBJ
scured-that the field was filed with
Texas cattle grazing In little punches
of ten to fifty. Just as he started one
Of the ''long horns" caught sight of
him and the bunch followed its leader
to investigate. The young man nat
uralIy quickened his pace and the
cattle took after him.
The trail was straight and level.
leading to a big gate. The boy bent
over his wheel and pedaled for his
life. He could hear the believing of
the cattle and the pounding of their
hoofs behind him. but he looked neith-
er to right nor left. What should he
do when he reached the gate?
No matter All his mind was fixed
upon the necessity of keeping ahead.
He neared the gate and it was open.
He dashed through like a fash of
lightning, lost his pedals, struck a
r0rk and uas nifchad off and Law
senseless on the ground.
1t had happened that the man who
owned the range was visiting it at
that moment. He had seen the boy
race for life and had opened the gate
to let him pass through. Then. with
two or three attendants, he rode in
and headed OF the herd.
