Surveyors Report Advances
Extensive Plan for Beautifi-
cation Of city's Streets.

Acquisition of the publicly
owned front yards of residences
In the District for conversion
into parks is urged by Melvin C.
Hazen, District surveyor, in his
annual report submitted to the
District Commissioners today.
Surveyor Hazen points out that
II the parking area in front Of
homes were given uniform treat
ment it would result in a most
beneficial improvement to the
street and to the general beauty
Of the city.
/ Chy-Owned Front Yards.
In many of the streets of Wash.

the District owns the property be.
yond the building line. This prop
erty, which Is used by those who
occupy the adjoining space. is de-
veloped according to the whims of
the particular owner of the adjoin-
ing lot.
TT is my belief that these areas
could be regulated and beautified so
rs to add to the beauty of the city
to a great degree" says Mr.. Hazen.
Especially do have in mind the
development of Sixteenth street
northwest. There is forty feet OF
public parking along each side OF
Sixteenth street. This is occupied
by the property owners without re-
gard as to uniformity of treatment.

terraced and other places where il
is on the grade of the sidewalk.
There are some with fences and
some without, some with hedges and
some without, creating the most
hodge-podge development that is pos
sible.
Forty-Foot Parkway Proposed
"I know of nothing that would
beautify Sixteenth street so much
as to have on both sides Of the street
a beautiful forty.foot parkway. 1t
seems unreasonable to think that
the Government owns this park area
and yet makes no effort to beau
tify Il.
There are many ways this might
be accomplished. It is believed that
It would require legislation, which
the cost to be borne by the prop.
erty owners. Certain major streets
could be developed at first. and the
development could extend as there
arose a demand, or the public In
terests required 1t. 1t seems unfair
for one neighbor to keep a beauti.
ful front yard to be marred by an
other neighbor who has no pride
In its upkeep.
1T is recommended that the
commissioners take this matter un-
der consideration at the earliest
possible date"
Hazen advocates in his report
that the law ordering the closing
Of all alley dwellings be amended
He points out that these dwellings
constitute a menace to the health
and morals Of the community and
have been tolerated too long" He
wants these alleys made into minor
street.
Urges Park Extension.
Surveyor Hazen renews his rec.
ommendation that the Government
acquire the Piney Branch parkway,
Klingle road valley and Patterson
track for parks. He also urged
the acquisition of the sites Of old
civil war forts which he wants
turned into parks.
The report points out that II Con.
Eress does not soon appropriate
money to buy the Piney Branch
parkway and Klingie road valley
that these sites will be lost as parks.
improvements are encroaching very
rapidly on the property he says.
Provision for small parks in the
outlying sections is also urged by
Mr.. HazeH.

CHAPTER H.

He had not forgiven her four years
later when he entered high school in
her company, for somehow Ramsey
managed to shovel his way through
examinations and stayed with the
class. He was unable to deny that
she had become less awful lookin'
than she used to be. At least, he was
honest, enough to make q partial re-
traction when his friend and class
mate, Fred Mitchell. insisted that an
amelioration Of Dora's appearance
could be actually proven.
well I'll take it back. / don't
claim she's every last bit as awful
lookin' as she always has been," said
Ramsey, toward the conclusion of the
argument. "T'll say this for her, she's
awful lookin', but she may not be as
awful loOkin' as she was. She don't
come to school with the edge of some
of her underclO'es shOwin' below her
dress any more, about every other day,
and her eyewinkerS have got to stick
in out some, and she may not be so
abbasalootly skinny, but she'll haf to
wait mighty long while before l
want TO look at her without gettin'
Sickw
The implication that Miss Iocum
cared to have Ramsey look at her,
either with or without gettin' sick, was
mere rhetoric, and recognized as such
by the producer of it; she had never
given the slightest evidence of any
desire that his gaze be bent upon her.
What truth lay underneath his flour
ish rested upon the fact that he could
not look at her without some Symp-
toms of the sort he had tersely
sketched to his friend; and yet, so
pungent is the fascination Of Self-in-

BEATTY REVIEWS SEA SCOUTS

The sea scouts of Chicago were re-
Gently accorded the great honor OF be-
Ing reviewed by Admiral Beatty. They
were lined up at the Blackstone ho-
tel, and the admiral shook hands with
each one of them, and asked questions
about scouting and sea scouting. Later
he gave the whole group an interest
ing talk about the work the British
sea scouts rendered, patrollinS the
coast during the war.
Through the good offices Of Howard
D. Gillette of the Chicago local council,
Lieutenant Keane, who for the last
four wears has been assistant to the
commandant of the Great Lakes train
ing station, is meeting the sea scouts
once q week on board the Commodore,
the naval training boat anchored just
off Grant park. The government life
saving crew has also accorded the sea
scouts the privilege Of the use OF
quarters, and the Hamilton club has
offered its swimming tank aH the
services of an instructor. Each one
Of the seven districts Of Chicago VIII

is expected that by spring there Will
be some 200 boys actively enrolled In
