misunderstanding on the surface
concrete developments in the railroad
strike are lacking in Washington. the
impression gained in official circles is
that the situation is being rapidly
shaken down" to a point where a new
nov by the administration can be ex-
pected.
Cabinet members who discussed the
situation, invariably declared that
President Harding was in personal
charge of the question. and, though
there was more thar the belief that the
cabinet would be called upon to con
slider it at a regular session. no hint
was forthcoming as to the manner in
which the transportation crisis would
be laid before the presidents official
family.
Further evidence was obtained how
ever, that some of the chief execu-
tive's advisers have urged that the
government cannot permit the break
down Of the country's arteries of com
merce to go further. while waiting for
the railroad arrangements and shop
men to dispose of their differences.

WOULD PLANT USEFUL TREES
fastener Makes q Good Suggestion
Concerning a Proposed "Road
Of Remembrance"

Referring to the Road of Remem'
brance from Buffalo to New York city,
which it is proposed to line on both
sides with elm trees in memory Of the
dead of the World war, certainly
such road lined with large elm trees
would present an imposing appearances
But would not this memorial road be
just as Imposing with the added al
vantage Of future usefulness II the
trees planted were such rs the stately
walnut, the hickory and the white oak?
asks correspondent Of the New YORK
Sun.
Has not the time come for the plant
ing of trees for real us rather than
merely for ornamentation; and should
not ornaInentation and utility go hand
In hand in such matter? Is not the
domestic supply Of these valuable anu
useful woods much below what 1t
should be, and should there not be a
new supply started wherever pos"
sible?
If the >p1antins 81 trees along the
roadside is done with the idea OF
their being a memorial to those who
gave their all to their country during
the World war. would not such nelnor-
fals be emphasized In the beginning by
the planting Of trees that will grow In
to usefulness as we'll US furnish shade
ana magnificent appearance?

TOO WISE WlvES"'AT
ELKO THEATER TONIGHT

Lois Weber's latest photoplay,
"Too> Wise Wives which again APP
pears tonight at thesElko theatcr is
another of those ,incomparably re-
produced cross-sections of life in the
best American society which Miss
Weber knows so we'll how to photo
dramatic and which have created for
her d; distinctive following. :
: Claire Windsor, who a year; ago
was a Seattle society girl, plays the
leading feminine role in the picture.
Her Nappealingly winsomc charms are
contracted with the mature seductive
ness Of the languorous Mona Lisa.
Phillips SEaalley, in real life the hus-
band of Miss Weber, returns to the
screen in "Too Wise Wives" after q
long absence. The other leading male
role is played by Louis Calhern, until
recently the star of the Oliver Moros-
co speaking stage stock company.
The play tells the story Of a wife
who risked her husbands faith in her
il, order to win back an old sweet
heart who had happily married. Two
kinds of wives are contrasted: the
one who does everything she knows
will please her husband and the one
who does the things she believes
should please him. One fails where
the other succeeds. And the one who
succeeds is the faithless wife, The
finale is surprise.

=. Beauty as Civic Asset.

If we want to draw self-supporting
outsiders to the city as a place Of
residence, beauty attracts more quickly
than anything else, asserts the In
dfarapolis News. A good many hold
to the view that this argument applies
only to the more wealthy districts.
There is nothing more false than this.
It applies equally to the working home
districts. There are working home dis
tricts in this city which, II left alone,
will remain beauty spots. The houses
are set back from the sidewalk suf-
ficiently to admit of flower beds and
lawns, which in summer are most at
tractiye. These districts should be
protected by coming law that would
not permit a grocery store or a ga
rage to get into their midst.
Analysis of the situation Will show
that by spending little money the
taxable value OF certain districts can
be raised SO it will cost the public
nothing and q beauty spot will he
added to the city.

FIRST BASE FOR YANKS
Rv Henhv +. Farrell

Omitted Press STAFF CORRESPONDENCE
New York, Jan. 1O.--Babe Ruth is
slated to play first base next season
for the New York Yanks.
New York will not be surprised to
see the Swat King switched from
patrol of the sun garden to the door
keeper of the American League cham
plons' intieid. 49,,
Miller Higgins, manager Of the
club. has not Committed himself off
cially, but he, has let it be known
that he has been considering the
change for some time. a."
First base will not be a strange
berth to the smuggling sultan as he
played the position with the Boston
Red Sox, Lateiin the season last year,
the big BAN put in about ten minutes
every day on the corner during field
ing practice and he likes the position.
While he was acceptable left fielder,
the BAN showed weakness in getting
low drives and ground balls. He was
too heavy for the position and he
maintained he didn't get enough work
chasing flies to, keep down his girth.
If Higgins gets Bob Veach from
the Detroit Tigers or any other first
class gardener, the change is almost
sure to come. ~. 4.
With Roger Peckingpaugh gone
from the club, Higgins is expected t.
get more results from Ruth, Metesl
and the entire team. This is not meant
to infer that Peck was rebel agalns.
his manager or any kind Of a dis
turber, for he is anything but that,
However, Peck was too popular with
the club. The anti uggins clan made
Peck their. adopted leader and per-
sistently campaigned for the removal
of the mite manager and the installa-
ton of the popular shortstop as their
manager.
| The, issue came to a head during
the last western trip of, the club last
season. Higgins was laid up for two
weeks in a hospital and Peck was act.
ing manager. The club went like :
house afire and dia not lose a game
F. for Peck,
Higgins and Peck did not have the
same managerial policy and when
Buggins returned TO the club, the
players claimed that they could VIII
the pennant only by following Peck.
The shortstop remained out Of the
controversy, however, and gave his
very best to Higgins, trying at the
same time to get the other players
| behind their manager.
Whether he succeeded or not is I'M
known but the fact remains that the
club went through to the pennant and
Higgins was given a contract for an
other year. IT..
In trading Bill Percy to the Red
Sox, Higgins also broke up the Ruth
Meusel-Piercy striumvirate that trou-
bled him all season and the combina-
ton that finally ran afoul of Commits
sioner Lands and got set down until
May 20. a..
There are no other managerial can
didates on the team now. Ruth has
always claimed that he could never
sec a managerial job until he is
through as an active nlavcr ~~d ~ ~

are youngsters or veterans w1t1vu,

BEAUTY in THIS MILL TOWN

,3@E Labor Troubles,

9 .ft might seem rather far-fetched to
proclaim q relationship between the
profession Of landscape design and the
labor problem-a relationship, more
over, that develops into 4 beneficiary
Influence, helping in a modest way to
render this problem less acute.
There is evidence Of this fact at
North Billerica, Mass, within twenty
miles Of Boston, where large mills are
situated, says Egbert Hans in the Bos-
ton Transcript. The owners Of the
mills have, as one phase Of their well
fare work during the last fifteen years,
engaged a landscape designer Of ma
tional reputation to establish and
maintain suitable planting about en-
ployees' homes, the plant and other
buildings under the company's control.
To create and maintain an interest
among the mill employees In this work.
the mills established yearly compe-
tition, offering various prizes for the
following activities:, p, ~ ....
The best kept premises, front and
rear %>~
The training Of vines on house,
porch, arbors, trolley or other posts.
The placing Of window and porch
boxes.
The designing and maintenance OF
flower gardens.
The establishing ana care Of vege'
table gardens.
The result Of these efforts Is dis
played In the general appearance OF
the town, through which no stranger
can pass without carrying away vivid
impression Of beauty and individuality.
Yet North Billerica is not one OF the
modern garden cities created over
night, as a result Of sudden Industrial
development. 1t is part Of the town
ship of Billerica. one Of the Oldest
mentioned in the histories Of the Bay
state. The Talbot mills and other In
dustrles are responsible for its growth.
and the unusual relationship referred
to has given It the not less unusual
distinction Of being a beautiful mill
town.

GIVE THOUGHT TO THE BIRDS
New York Authority Urges Prospee'
tive Hone Builders to Remember
Feathered Friends.

Home owners, In planting trees,
shrubs and vines, should take into
consideration the idea Of growing
plants that will attract birds, accord
ing to Professor Alan L. Arnold Of
the New York State College of Fores-
try, who finds that there is possibili-
ty OF many of our native birds dis
appearing altogether for lack of food
and shelter.
The list Of trees, shrubs and vines
attractive to birds includes many Of
our most ornamental plants. There is
no more valuable evergreen tree for
ornamental purposes than the native
red cedar; it aso provides the best
shelter and nesting sites for birds,
while they find food in the, berries
and insects commonly found on the
tree. vt 49,.
The native Towering dogwood and
the Chinese Towering crabapple are
two particularly beautiful trees that
are favorites with the birds. The
gray-stemmcd dogwood, honeysuckle,
American elder and sheepberry arc al
so serviceable to the birds, and orna-
mental. The Virginia creeper, one
Of the most popular vines, furnishes
nesting sites for birds and draws the
attention Of the birds away from
grapes, apples and peaches.
IF one has place where plants
Of wilder sort can be introduced"
said Professor Arnold, land wishes
to make special point Of attract
ing birds, there is a great variety
OF native plants that could not per-
haps be used for more finished eff
fects, but here would be just the
thing - - p. !.
