me Rock Island city planning
|connission and the Rock Island
board of education will decide on
which of the two institutions should
carry through its plans for the use
| OF the property at Ninth avenue
land Twenty-fifth street
The city plan commission, which
had agreed to construct a drive
running diagonally from the inter
|eection of Ninth avenue and TWEEN
|ty-ffth street through the rayine
10 fifteenth avenue and about
|Twenty-ninth street, has invited
1.-THE school board to meet with 1t
next Tuesday evening at the city
hall. The property lying between
Ninth and Tenth avenues on Twen-
ty-fifth street has been purchased
by the board for it's location of the
new high school
The drive as a short cut connect
ling the level and hill districts was
one of the first suggestions offered
to the city plan committee when
1t began its work more than a year
ago. AS no actual, work in carry
ing out the city plan had started,
the commission did not attempt to
lease the property. Since then,
however, the school board had pur-
chased the land from ". E. Bailey
and is making plans for the new
high school.
One of the members of the city
planners, Bennett & Parsons, of
Chicago, will be at the meeting
Tuesday and is expected to bring
the finished plans before the board.
Action on approval of the plans
may be taken. However, no phase
OF the plan can be worked out in
the immediate future, due to the
lack of city funds.

OPPOSITION TO
IMCLNFRATOR rs
CAUSE OF DELAY
Especial Moline Service,

Objections raised by property
owners against the proposed loca-
ton of the incinerator on Eight
zenith street south of the railroad
tracks may cause East Moline to
postpone the special election on
the Issuance of $50, 600 bonds which
1t was planned to hold On Jan. 26.
A delegation of five residents
from the east end appeared at the
city council meeting last evening
armed with a petition bearing the
signatures of 156 property holders.
The main objection to the inc 'nera-
tor, as advanced by the petitioners,
was that it's presence in the neigh
borhood would cause the value of
property to DECORATE, and result in
refusal of prospective purchasers Of
property to buy. 1t was indicated
by a member cf the delegation that
issue at the polls if another site was
not used
The petition was read and placed
on file. Later a motion was passed
naming the council as a commit
tee of the whole to find another
site for the plant. In the event CT
delay in finding a suitable place
the election VIII of necessity be
postponed.
Aldermen Mcmillan and Newton,
who inspected incinerators in 9TH
er cities, defended the position of
the city council, declaring that the
Eighteenth street site had been Sc
lected for the sake of economy.
They declared that the smoke from
the type Of incinerator which East
Moline proposes to buy is not Of
fensive and that an incinerator is
not insanitary.
The council authorized the NAV
or and city clerk to sign three more
andcipatory tax warrants of SIS, 900
each. There IS but s3,176 in the
city treasury. a number of plans
were advanced whereby the city
expenses might be reduced. Some
one proposed that work be suspend
ed on the new city hall building.
Another suggested that the wages
of day 1aborers of the street de-
partment be cut Neither of these
proposals was adopted.
The city attorney was authorized
to prepare an ordinance giving
business men of the Fourth ward
privilege to erect a business block.
The building will cost about $1,000.

Beautiful View From
Mount Full Summit

Sunrise from the top of Full is
surprisingly beautiful, says Gertrude
Emerson, IN Asia Because of the fso-
lation of the peak, the view extends
over wide area, including many small
lakes strung hound the base of the
mountain and the whole expanse of
the Pacific to the east. Far below
the clouds bank together, break and
assemble anew in neVerending pat
terms.
Under certain atmospheric cnndi-
ton, the shadow of some one standing
on the summit of the mountain at sun
rise or sunset is cast upon the mist
below as the Vision of the Buddha-
The shadows of three pilgrims stand
ing together are called the Three Bud
.dhas, and are held in great reverence
In the same way the shadow of Full
itself is sometimes reflected on the
clouds.
Japanese have tieketed nearly all the
good views of Full Mirror-Fuji means
the reflection of F'uji in Lake Hakone.
Left-handed Full is the name given to
the mountain at the only place on the
Tokaido. where, because of a sharp
twist ina the road, Fuji appears sud
denly at the left instead of at the right
of the traveller bound from Toxic to
Kyoto.
From Lake Shoji, on clear day, a
particularly fine view of the mountain
is to be had. Between, the great pine
trees covering the hiIlsides, the in
verified peak of the mountain is reflect
ed in the lake. But only on winter
days when SHOWS extends far down the
slopes, is the picture unobscured by
misty clouds.
