 PARKING ON R. R, PLOT
Judge filling Says New Haven" Road Has Power to flake
 Own Regulations

Ten defendants were arraigned before Judge Benjamin W, filling in police court this morning on charges of trespassing on railroad property Tn connection with a drive by rail- road police to stop autoists parking their machines in the semi-circle in iron Of the railroad station. In fnd- ing the ten guilty, Judge B. w. Al- ling said that as 1t was apparently the first action of this nature taken by the railroad authorities, he would let them off with a fine of s1 each without costs.
 Those who paid the s1 assess ment were John Borg of 5S Cherry street, Emmanuel kounaris of 6s Arch street. Thadeus Singleton of I Yale street, Antonio Giattino of Ill Orange street, Pietro Bucchi of 47 Wilcox street, Paul z. Burrows of Springfield, James F. Luckens of 76S Arch street. Martin J. Pashkin Of 147 Broad street, John Sullivan of Greenwood street, Edwin Kings ley and James Buccheri. The men were arrested on warrants issued on complaint of railroad detectives. who have been checking up on ths machines during the past week.
 Captain Kingsley and Detectives Howard Smith and Rooney testified this morning that all the defendants had parked their machines in front of the station last Thursday. Atty. David l.. Dunn appeared for Sulli- van and Buccheri, and he made the claim that since the railroad per. mits the machines to enter the property, they cannot be arrested for trespassing when they remain there. Judge filling ruled that the railroad officials have the power to regulate the use of the area in ques- ton and stipulate how long ma chine may remain on it.

CITIZENS APPROVE
PROPOSED BUS LINE
Stanton Park Body Hears
Plans of Transit Company
for Route Outlined.

Application of the Washington Rapid
service to include Maryland avenue to
Fifteenth and H strt cts was approved
by the Stanton Park Citizens Associa-
ton, at a meeting in the Peabody
School, Fifth and c streets northeast
last night. Leon Arnold, president Of
the transit company, outlined the pro-
posals of the company provided the
franchise is granted. There would be
no loading platforms to congest traffic
he said and when the busses stop to
load or unload passengers traffic fol-
lowing is not required to stop. In case
of a fire, instead OF the line being tied
up the busses would drive around the
corner. He emphasized the 100 per
cent service rendered by the busSeS dur
ing the recent snowstorms contrasted
with the service given by the street
railways. No pedestrian, he declared,
has ever been run down by the busses
on the city streets in more than four
years Of operation.
Details Proposed Route.
J, Ia detailed the route proposed, which
would extend from Thirty and
T streets northwest through the down
town section, around Union Station, the
Capitol and the Library and out Mary
land avenue to Fifteenth and II streets
northeast. The Washington Railway
and Electric Co, he said, has asked
for the right to run busses over line
practically the same in the northwest
section, but which terminates about
Tenth street northwest.
Mrs. Henry c. Brown of the Ten
ants League asked the support of
the association in the formation Of

LISTEN, WORLD!
If He Hadn't Lived
BY ELSIE ROBINSON

Georg Brandes, the Norwegian critic
has written treatise to prove that
the story of Jesus is myth. He
claims that Jesus was but one of the
great company of legendary heroic
characters and that he has no place in
actual history.
mo more true, no more important
than the other legends" reads the ar
ticle announcing the publication Of this
work in America.
George Brandes is q famous critic,
but his opinion of Jesus would hardly
be important to us if it were not also
the opinion of an increasing number
Of our own citizens.
Whether he lived or not, Jesus has,
in effect, become legendary character
to countless thousands of people whom
you and 1 meet daily. And to these
thousands, Georg Brandes' articles will
come as q confirmation Of their own
doubts.
They will say: well, I knew it all
along. Isn't it fierce the kinda bunk
the churches have made people swal-
low. Read this here. Great stuff.
Proves conclusively that there never
was such a persons as Jesus. Of course
they found lotta documents written
about him and they've put them in the
Bible. But these documents were just
make believe stuff-and the people who
wrote them never expected they'd be
believed. Well-that's another fake
shown up
/ shall not try TO answer Mr.
Brandes' contention nor reply TO the
remarks Of those who agree with them
II / wish to believe that Jesus lived
that's MY business. II you wish to
believe that he didn't live, that's YOUR
business. And neither one of us has
the right TO try to shove his beliefs
down the other fellows throat.
But / am going to ask a question
which Mr.. Brandes' theorizing seems
10 have left unanswered.
Suppose Jesus didn't live
HOW DOES THAT LESSEN THE
VALUE OF THE SERMON ON THE
MOUNT TO YOU AND Me?
Suppose Jesus. babe, WASN'T
born in the manger
Does that lessen the beauty and
comfort of the manger story. Does
that remove the wonder Of that light
which dawned at last for babes too
poor to be born in palaces? Does that
make null and void the promise OF
good will and peace" which came
from heaven to an earth which had
till then, known little but cruelty and
war?
Even il Mr.. Brandes can prove that
the miracle Of Jesus life never hap.
pcned, does that disprove the miracle
that such a philosophy DID happen
in such a time? Or that the thought
of it has worked like yeast in mems
heavy. darkened lives ever since?
Suppose Jesus didn't go into that
desert to be tempted
Does that sever the bonds which ties
our own desert tempted hearts to thu
story Of his trial and triumph:
Suppose Jesus didn't work among
the poor. sharing their simple fare
healing their sick. weeping with them
rejoicing with them, fighting their
fights

Cabbage Salad
Mince Pie
By Alice Irwin

Yesterday we talked about the
preparation of the Thanksgiving fruit
cake. Today we will discuss the
making of mince meat, for it is none
TOO soon to be planning for our
Thanksgiving dinner.
The first ingredient necessary in
making mince meat is the meat. Six
pounds are required. This is usually
boiling beef. The fruits include four
pounds of raisins, OF which at least
one pound should be Sultanas two
pounds currants, two pounds citron,
one whole lemon and one whole
orange. These are all washed and
chopped very fine. The meat is put
through the meat chopper, combined
with the fruits, and then two pounds
chopped suet, four pounds brown
sugar, two cups sweet cider, one cup
molasses, one cup water, two table
spoons allspice, two tablespoons mace,
one tablespoon ground cloves, four
tablespoons ground cinnamon and
three tablespoons salt are added. The
last ingredient which goes in is 20
pounds chopped apples. The mixture
is cooked over a slow fire until the
meat and apples are soft, about one
hour.
In this climate it is best TO pack
mince meat in mason jars. Where
one has cold fruit cellar a stone
ware crock does well. If the storage
space is limited the mince meat may
be made without the apples, and
when one is ready to use it combine
with chopped apples, using equa!
amounts.
Here is a hint about cutting up
citron and other dried fruits which
/ have found most useful: Steam
il over hot water. 1t then is as easy
TO cfIt as n cucumber

OF THAT FIRST, BRAVE VISION
OF MANS BROTHERHOOD?
Other prophets there have been
other ways to salvation and glory. But
never one that said:
go OUT AND LIFT YOUR
BROTHER FROM THE MUD.
IF> YOU MERELY ABSTAIN
FROM SHINING. RIGHTEOUS
NESS is NOT NEGATIVE: IT is
POSITIVE. YOU MUST DO
SOMETHING FOR SOMEBODY
ELSE BEFORE YOU CAN AT
TAIN MERIT FOR YOURSELF"
There was the bravest. kindliest rule
Of life that had ever been given 20
men. Suppose that Jesus didn't say
it. 1T WAS SAID. 1t came from
out the Source into mems lives. And
il authentic history gives no accurate
check ON how it came, does that great
ly matter?
And suppose no Jesus ever died upon
a cross
Does that remove the cross from our
own lives? Does that prevent the cru
cifixion of every eager, cropping soul
that dares defy the false and selfish
code? Does that quench the bright
glory of those dying words
FATHER FORGIVE THEM FOR
THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY
Do,
Or can it still the cry of kinship in
our own hearts with that suffering
dreaming youth who chose a frightful
death rather than betraJ his faith?
A BODY is little thing to live or
die.
BUT LOVE AND COURAGE

VERY BASHFUL.
You are bashful and lack self con-

criticising you. Really no one is OF
