built up without it, though this has
been done in many of the largest
cities with excellent results. But it
is comparatively easy to apply it to
small cities, which are growing into
large ones. 1t prescribes in advance
the plan of city building upon which
the growth of the place is to proceed,
something formerly too generally
lacking or, when it did exist, prepared
without sufficient thought. Most cities
have grown up helter-skelter, while
some with mathematically fixed plans
have proved to be miracles of incon-
venience. OF course the coming plan
does not prescribe the arrangement of
streets, but it exercises a strong in
fuence over it.
Not the least gratifying feature of
the case is the fact that people every
where are becoming educated to the
advantages of the system, so that
they not only acquiesce in it without
demur, but also voluntarily adopt it
even where it is not prescribed by
law. Some of the cities in which it
has been most successfully applied
are in states where there is no law
on the subject and where the consti-
tuition does not permit municipality
to enforce such law. But the good
will of the citizens makes the sys-
tenn effective. 1t will be we'll to have
all states authorize it and all munich
palities adopt it.-Washington Post.

not hold a position in the more de-
sirable industries, sought employ
ment. If it had been left to human
wisdom to pick out an industry where
it might be thought possible literally
to apply the teachings of our Lord
and live the golden rule, the clothing
business would have been the last one
selected; and yet this is the one that
| went into. This took place at the
beginning of 1919. In 1918 our COM
pany had done a business of $132,-
190.20. Since then the record is as
follows: 1919, $525,67S43; 1920, ST.

$9,245, ,429.70. So far this year we
have done more business than we did
in the same period of 1922 and 1924
added together.
''The six thousand workers in the
A. Nash Co. fix their own hours OF
labor, fix their own wages and fix
even the salary of myself, their presi-
dent. Every ounce of ability and en-
ergy | have devoted to the develop
ment of the men and women in my
industry has been repaid manifold in
the development of their ability to
take care of the industry in every i'm
portant detail. Money devoted to
making men and women pays bigger
dividends than men and women de-
voted to making money. There is no
guesswork about that.
"The appreciation and trust of the
humblest of my employees is worth
so much to me that it could not be
bought for an amount equal to the
largest dividend check ever laid on

'It has been demonstrated in my
own personal life and in our organiza-
ton of about 5000 garment workers
that the philosophy of Jesus will
work, and in every place that it has
been made real it has worked just as
it has done in ours. 1t is the only
way"
What an inspiring statement from
an everyday American business man!
If even a small percentage of men
would adopt the same fine thought to
their business it would not be long
before we would imagine the Mil
enium had come. So great an inspira-
tion as Arthur Nash has presented

THE HORN BLOWING NUISANCE

The blowing of automobile horns
Sunday nights in Palisade is fast be-
coming an intolerable nuisance. On
account of the thousands of cars that
have to be handled at Palisade avenue
and Bluff rod, several officers are on
hand to regulate traffic, and they are
doing a skillful job of it. There has
been no accident of any Importance
the whole summer. But the auto
drivers, impatient that the cars ahead
do not move fast enough, blow their
horns loud enough to wake the dead,
let alone those live ones in Palisade
who desire to have their rest un-
broken. These Sunday night choruses
of toots are worse than outrageous.
They are nuisance that should be
abated. Part of the noise-making is
impulsive, part thoughtless, but all of
it devilish. Nothing is gained by it,
and hundreds of people are awakened
and kept awake by the din. If the
noise cannot be stopped the road
should be closed, for Palisade citizens
have at least some rights that should
be respected.

5000 Theatres Join in Movement
For Better Films Week of Sept. o-13

Confident that the public will sup

the more progressive theatre owners
have joined the national movement to
celebrate Paramount Week, Septem-
Der to 13, when 5000 theatres
throughout the country will unite in
exhibiting Paramount pictures exclu-

1t is significant that the Famous
Players-Lasky Corporation has chosen
newspapers almost exclusively to ad-
vertise Paramount Week. Coming as
1t does just after the opening of the
Greater Movie Season, it will on this,
it's eighth annual year, be more wide
spread and popular than ever.
The past seven years have proved
Paramount Week not only a prosper

recognized as a national movement
giving prestige with those theatres
identifying themselves with the move
ment.
To send the week off to flying
start the Famous Players-Lasky Cor

papers throughout the country. These
include both daily and weekly, and
the sum spent is one of the largest
ever expended by any one corporation
in American newspapers in single
day

THE GOLDEN RULE IN BUSINESS

One of the most remarkable achieve
ments in the history of American mer-
camille life is related in this weeks
Golfers Weekly. 1t is the story OF
the wonderful success of the A. Nash
Company, clothing corporation, told
by it's founder and present general
manager, as president, Arthur Nash
Mr. Nash is known as Golden
Rule Nash, as fitting title as ever
adorned the career of any man. He
began the thought of applying the
Golden Rule in his business by real
izing that the great problem of cap
ital and labor was merely the right
of human relationships. He says that
during the periods of the simpler
civilizations mankind never solved
this problem of how to live together
as brethren" Mr. Nash concludes
that it is till unsolved, though he per-
sonally has added great deal to the
public's appreciation of the meaning
of the problem. He says further, "We
are now rushing headlong into more
and more complex associations, and
the prayer for the solution of our hui
man problems is more urgent than
ever before in the worlds history"
Mr.. Nash says that it is his firm con-
viction that if we will Christianize
industry making the Golden Rule of
Jesus universal practice we need not
worry about anything any more.
Whilst he admits that he was d
preacher of the Golden Rule he never
practiced it. He says that the thought
was big fine general expression bu;
it did not mean anything real. When
it came about that he was face to
face with the alternative of putting
the golden rule into practice, he
either had to do it unequivocally OF
renounce it altogether. Then in or
der to put it squarely up to his own
conscience, he bought sweatshop-
clothing business. Listen to this
remarkable presentation of Mr.. Nash's
case:

purchased only the inefficient and
helpless human beings, who could

The picture opens on the Israelite
slaves building the city of Rameses
in Egypt. They are being cruelty
treated by the Pharaoh, and things
look dark until Moses energies to
lead them. He asks for their liberty,

meses' son is killed in the last of the

to leave. They go with aching bodies
and glad hearts over the desert sands.
This part of the picture is done in
natural colors and in it's sweep is
overwhelming.
Then follow scenes showing Moses
receiving the Commandments on the
Mount, the children of Israel wor-
shipping the golden calf in wild orgy
and finally the fade out, in which

ple's treachery, filings the tablets

THE SUCCESS OF CITY zoNINe

City zoning is a success. So much
appears to be assured, from the rec
ord of the last four years. According
to the Department of Commerce, the
system has been adopted generally by
cities in all parts of the land, both
great and small. OF the largest SO
cities in the United States 27 have
coming laws. Four years ago only As
municipalities were under the system,
with about 100000 population,
while now no fewer than 366 have
adopted it, with a population of 26,-
100000. That is an increase of 1S0
per cent in four years.
The zoning system is based upon
justice and common sense. 1t is a
business-like element of city planning.
1t protects householders in their right.
to enjoy possession of their property
undisturbed by the invasion of annoy
ing and detrimental elements, and it
interferes with the activities of none,
save to restrain them from infringing
upon the rights of others. There is no
doubt that in practically all cases 1t
is proving beneficial to all concerned.
Certainly 1t is to the advantage or
residence regions to be protected from
invasion by industries and business,
and the latter are finding it no less to
their advantage to be confined within
districts of their own. Business inva-
sions of residence quarters have al
most invariably been made, not in an
swer to any public demand but be-
cause of the "smartness" of some
pushing tradesman, who thought that
he would thus gain advantage over
his rivals, but who was quickly fol-
lowed thither by them, when it would
have been better for them all to stay
where they were.
1t is, of course, difficult to apply the
system TO large cities which were

THE NEW YORK CAMPAIGN

The effcrt to defeat Mayor Rylan
as candidate for Mayor of New York
has developed into one of the most
stupendous campaigns ever under
taken in the big city. That Mayor
Hylan is not popular with the regular
order politicians is easy enough to
see. Tammany Hall, the all-powerful,
sees Hylan as fallen idol, but 1t also
recognizes that he is hard man to
whip, therefore it has called in Gov
ernor Smith to beat him back. Gov
ernor Smith, as always, is making
safe and very eloquent campaign. He
is past master in the art of appeal
and is the idol of the masses. There
as something peculiarly fascinating
about Alfred e. Smith. His like has
never been known in American pol
itics. He carries vast audiences by
the magic of his oratory, his earnest
zeal and his sincerity.
But with these points so largely in
his favor, he also recognizes that in
John F. Hylan he has a dangerous
foe to combat. Hylan is presenting
In his speeches an array of achieve
ments under his administrations that
are outstanding and frank in their
candor. Two hundred and four new
public schools for 250,000 children is
not a bad record, and more, he says,
are building His adding 1900 acres
of new parks for the people, building
board walks at Coney Island and
Rockaway, are things that meet the
popular approval. And then, too, the
maintenance of the five cent fare
excuses a multitude of other faults
he Is said to possess. He Is driving
home in very simple manner all that
has been piled up in his favor, which
the public has not really recognized
until he presented the big pile of the
records of his administration work.
People call all public men who
achieve, dangerous. True enough the
Hylan spending has been big, but the
increasing property value, huge in vol
nme, has given him a source on which
to draw for spending. There is no
doubt but that New York in the past
five or six years has grown until its
majestic proportions are SldSBerluB
Taxes are relatively much lower in

does not matter If Hearst is supporting
Mr.. Hylan. Both are very powerful
radicals out for touching the popular
chord And it is hard task to de-
feat that element in a big city. Gov
ernor Smith later said he merely told
of Hylan being closeted with the Klan
leaders at the Democratic National
Convention. The intimation was
plain enough.

1t was great punt by Sparrow
in the first few minutes Of the game,
that carried fully So yards to Mary
lands 5-yard mark, that gave Caro-
lima an edge that played a telling
part in the outcome. This finally
forced Supplee to go back of his own
goal line to kick. His effort was
blocked, and after a mad chase Bes-
ley of Maryland fell upon the ball
for safety that gave the Tarheels'
two very important points.
A short punt that gave Carolina
the ball on Marylands 35-yard line
led to the TarheelS' second score, but
the counter would not have been reg
istered but for a penalty. After Caro-
lima had marched to within three
yards of the goal the Old Liners
frightened and STAYED off three rushes
and then broke up a forward pass.
However. a Maryland man was off
side on the fourth play and instead
of the Old Liners taking the ball on
downs it went to the Tarheels yard
and half from the line from where
Underwood carried ii over.
Another blocked kick enabled Caro-
lima to add two points 20 its score he

second half and Besley, who finally

got his boots off in good style despite
the fact that he got some very bad
passes to handle, and Carolina doubt

not the College Parkers resorted TO
