AN OVERSIGHT SOMEWHERE
HERE

It's come to this! The chief en-
gineer Of the American Institute of
Steel Construction suggests that
buildings on business streets be con-
structed with sidewalks running
along the second story while in the
first story there be provided park
ing space for automobiles.
This Is letting the automobile in
on the ground floor. as it We're We
are surprised that his building
specifications for the present era
didn't include hangers on the roof
for airplanes and elevators to &C
commodate those who fly. while
those who are content to travel in
the chug-chug cars are, assigned to
the basement.
Somewhere in between these two
extremes in the business blocks must
be found room for accommodating
money enough for meeting gasoline
and repair bills. This suggestion OF
Engineer l. II. Miller makes no
mention of this. Really We think II
Is an oversight.

AN ILLINOIS INCIDENT

The red Indian, what there is left
Of him, has become for practical
purposes a deeply tanned white man,
on the whole fairly respectable. He
was ousted from his control Of this
country in the interests Of civiliza-
tion-so We have been told. An in
ferior race could not be permitted to
luxuriate in the fairness OF the land
of which he didn't make proper use,
but must be replaced by those who
would make better use of It
Now we wouldn't look to Herrin,
Illinois, for sample Of that superior
race. but do find there a use or
abuse on the part OF gangs tolerated
by the superior race, a class Of in
dividuals evidently more deserving
Of determination than ever was the
red Indian. This matter they are
attending to themselves by means of
feud warfare, armed and equipped
with machine guns. Such efforts,
however rarely result in a thorough
Job and incidentally decent people
are injured. all of which would
seem to require attention.
Just where such attention is to be
had seems now quite uncertain. The
officers Of the law say that the State
Of Illinois has no law against hay
Ing other than concealed weapons.
that II machine guns are found in
possession Of the thugs the law does
not warrant seizure Of them. How
helpless officers of the law are-when
II is convenient to be so! Incl
dentaiiy what does the superior race
that ousted the Indians propose to
Do about the matter,

the fall the salmon of Sebago Lake
go up the rivers and smaller streams
and very large number go up the

hatchery is located. The river is
dragged with net in which the fish
are caught. after which they are
stripped of their spawn in the hatch

Pretty soon Dobbin, the old gray
horse, looked around. Then he nod
ded his head at the little window of
the hired mans room upstairs. 1t
took the Pixies but few minutes to
climb up the water pipe and through
the open window.
Yes sleepily said the hired man.
You may take the automobile, but
be sure to bring it back before
morning ; Then with gentle push
they slid back the bolt and opened
the barn door, and scrambling into
the automobile, drove away" And
in the next story you shall hear
what happened after that.

The pine trees patiently unstitch
The brightness of this afternoon,
But while they work their pungent
thoughts
Are longing for the dulcet moon.
The pine trees only live at night
When moonlight brings them silver
eyes;
Throughout the day they stand like
Green beggars, uttering restless
cries.
At night they listen to the words
OF winds from far-off mountain
rims,
And feel the reckless grief that
springs
From those who stand with prisoned
limbs.
