AT an open meeting of the board
of trade last evening, plans for a
Fourth of July celebration were set
on foot, and provision for entertain
ment of the summer school boys on
special school holidays discussed.
Both these matters are treated in
full in other articles in this paper.
The meeting was well attended.
Quite a lively discussion developed
on the matter of parking cars on
Main street, at an angle-whether to
drive in or back in. Arguments in
favor of both methods were intro
duced and warmly defended A ris-
ing vote of automobile owners pres
ent showed twentyfour in favor of
driving in; seven in favor of the
last-year method of backing in.
There is no ordinance regarding the
matter, the city marshal instruct
ing drivers at the suggestion Of the
city government. If the city govern
ment acts on the expression of
opinion shown at last nights meet
ing, cars will drive in instead of
backing in this year. After the
meeting had become thoroughly
warmed up on this proposition, other
matters came thick and fast. H. E.
Rowe spoke for longer open hours
for the city library, care of the
building, and general overhauling
of the books to bring the library up
to date. Secretary Stratton, as an
alderman, informed the meeting that
in this years budget of appropria1
tons the city government had al
ready provided for the keeping open
of the library and the proper repair
of the building. Settees on the Ii
brary lawn for rest seats for stran-
gers in town were also suggester, and
commended and also for other
! places. A camping place for auto
tourists on the shore Of Leonard
| lake. or elsewhere, was preached.
Then someone suggested that, as the
meeting was nicely warmed up, it
would be a good time to talk about
| daylight-saving time. Someone sug-
gested an eulogy on daylight saving;
! someone else said "can it an obitu-
ary;" someone else moved to adj
| journ, motion that was promptly
! seconded and carried.

A machine for the rapid issue of
railway tickets has been demonstrated
in London, according to the Manchos-
ter Guardian. Outside the battery
are Sits in the walls, and below each
of these saucer-shaped receptacle.
The traveller puts his coins in the pen
ny, two-penny or three-penny slot, and
the ticket shoots out into the recenta-
Gle. If he puts a SiX-pence into the
two-penny slot three tickets emerge.
If he puts a siXpence into the five
penny slot he win get his ticket and
a penny change. He need not have
two pennies for the two-penny ticket.
Four haif-pennjes will do. But bad
or foreign coins will be returned.
All the work is done by the oper-
ator in the box, who stands at the
levers and shoots out the tickets as
the coins tumble into receptacle.
Those who watched the machine at
work said that undoubtedly the inVen-
ton would prove its value, especially
during the rush hours.

that SMALL BOY
Just a Word or TWO Said Here
in His Defense.
Pennsylvania Educator Issues Warning
to Mothers of Danger of Errors
in Training Methods.

Some interesting facts concerning
proper treatment of children were
brought out in an address at the Moth
ers club recently by J. George Becht,
first deputy state superintendent of
public instruction, the Philadelphia
Record states. In a talk on Youth
Its characteristics and Training" he
defended the small boy" who, he
held, was blamed for much of which
he was not guilty. Children between
the age of five and seven and twelve
and fourteen especially, as rule, he
said, were going through process OF
development which was abnormal and
in which the mind did not keep apace
with the body. This lack of co-ordina-
ton in the child's system resulted
In awkwardness, forgetfulness, etc,
and as result, boys especially,
going through the awkward age"
were not treated with too much con
sheraton
The speaker criticized the mothers
who are always nagging their boys
and charging them with Incidence, for
getfulness, etc, when in reality the
youngsters should be kindly treated
and given sympathy. He said
mother, through lack of knowledge,
was often cruel to children, while she
felt that she was over indulgent. In
this connection he specially referred to
the blame tgiven boys because they
forget to come in in time, or some
other such trihe What was very much
worse, he said, and very common, was
a desire to catch the boy in his error
and to corner him to explain it, which
was responsible for the development
of sneaks and liars. A boy should
not be treated like a law breaker, he
said, because he was slightly dere-
lict. neither should a mother use the
same method as policeman.
The speaker said that now more
than ever the parents should labor to
make the hearthside attractive. In
this ace of restlessness and shift,
when there was everywhere an effort
made to gain money, social position,
ETC. the home spirit that our ancestors
enjoyed was gradually dying away and
the family circle had no place what
ever The mother should multiply
her efforts to make home attractive,
to establish spirit of fraternity in
the family, and to make sympathy and
consideration qualities which encirced
the hearthstOne and made it the most
sacred spot for both parents and chill
dren.

Got Order Through IGNORANCE"

Having been told that u certain buy
err was difficult to do business with
because he knew it all clever
shoe salesman recently booked a tidy
order by feigning complete ignorance
of his own merchandise. 1t was the
first time he had ever come in contact
with that buyer, so he was able to get
away with 1t. SO woefully ignorant of
shoes and so wistfully willing to learn
all he could about them did he ap-
pear that the buyer, after trying to
assure himself that he was not being
"guyed," went so far as even to write
out the order himself Further than
this, he complimented the salesman
for his willingness to admit his ig-
norance of the business, asserting that,
while he found that few OF them knew
what they were talking about. they
made Il great showing of making out
that they did.

STAIRCASE UNIQUE IN DESIGN
Los Angeles Museum Has One of the
Most Remarkable Specimens
Known to the World.

Unique Is the spiral concrete stair
case in the tower Of the Southwest
museum at Los Angeles, Cal. Similar
staircases are to be found elsewhere,
as In the tower of st. Paul's and the
tower of the cathedral In the City of
Mexico, but they were built before the
age Of concrete. When viewed from
above, it bears a close resemblance to
the shell of a snail.
1t is, for its purpose, an improve
ment over Sir Christopher Wren's
masterpiece-th spiral stairway as
cendlng the interior wall In the tower
of st. Paul's cathedral, London. The
Southwest museum helical staircase is
built inside well in the center Of the
tower, thus not only preserving for
shelves or mounted objects the entire
interior wall space of the tower, but
also supplying on its own exterior wall
additional space which may be en-
ployed for museum purposes.
The tower containing the stairway
is seven stories in height with three
mezzanine balconies in the three up
per stories, giving the equivalent of
ten stories. The tower is 35 feet
square, and is supported by IL col
umns and external walls 8 inches thick,
reinforced with steel 1t rests on a
solid concrete slab or raft feet 6
inches thick. The total height is 125
feet and the weight is ], 900 tons. The
construction was carried on continu-
ously, story being poured at time
The staircase we'll Is feet 2 inches
in external diameter and is supported
by 4 corner columns with S-inch walls
between them, with light and ventila-
ton openings at each story. The stair
is known as a carncole, on account Of
the likeness to snail shell presented
by vertical view. With one eXcep-
ton it Is the only helical staircase in
America having a hollow center, the
other one being an ancient stone stair
case in the tower of the cathedral In
the City of Mexico. The staircase con-
tains 160 steps with 71a-inch rise each,
and was built around galvanized
iron form. In the shape of a pipe, while
wooden forms were placed for the
stairs Material was prepared at a
