City Lighting Matter
of First Importance

An ornamental street-lighting sys.
tenn that affords adequate illumination
at night, and also is inconspicuous in
the daytime, harmonizing closely with
the general scheme of architecture In
the various parts Of the city, is a
source of great municipal pride. a
city. may have many beautiful thor.
oughfares, but their beauty is not ap-
parent at night unless they are prop
erly illuminated.
Proper lighting implies that the in.
tensity of illumination should be
varied to meet the requirements of the
different sections of the city. Streets
and avenues in the business districts
where the traffic is heavier, for in
stance, require more light than those
in the residential districts. Just the
right amount of illumination is as
necessary for effective street lighting
as is the right method of illumination.
The installation Of a good lighting
system is something that demands
considerable thought and planning
Not alone the street-lighting system,
but also the ornamental posts, the
kind and shape of glassware, and the
proper placing Of the posts must be
given careful study.
There are many streets and drive
ways which are beautifully lighted at
night but which lose all of their pleas
ing appearance by day. This may be
explained by studying the lamp posts.
It will be found that the posts in
stalled are huge and clumsy, poorly
located, and do not harmonic at all
with their surroundings. The posts.
in fact. have married the entire aspect
of the street by day.

Vitality and Beauty 4
in Buildings of Brick

Since the day when the Assyrians
were in their glory the inventive
genius of man has wrought great i'm
proyements in brick Nowadays it
is turned out of the kiln in nearly
every color and shade, in every degree
Of coarseness and fineness. 1t dams
river, it paves street, it forms the
wall of factory; it adorns the inside
as well as the outside of home.
There was once time when the
mortar joints were regarded as an
unwelcome, necessity, but that time is
past. Modern art has shown that
mortar can be made valuable ally in
attaining the ultimate object-beauty.
With their units of many col0rs, the
architect and the clever brick worker
create a surface which has the look
of skilifully woven fabric, thus the
bonding together of brick permits
varied effects in what the architects
call texture" Brick has such quail
ity of humanity as clings to no other
substance that goes into the making
of house.
There is always the knowledge that
here is the work of human hands
that every piece was made by man
and put into place by man. The eff
feet, produced by mans harmonious
arrangement of his many units, is one
of lasting vitality.

reason for any man who is planning
to build to yearn in vain for home

FAT AND FORTY

Fat and forty used to be consid-
= cred not only normal but de-
sirable condition Middle-aged peo-
ole were regarded as healthy in pro-
portion to the amount of weight they
carried. They were expected to ELL
out their clothes" If they didn't, they
we're regarded as ''puny"
We know now that fat is the un-
needed and unused surplus, due to un-
necessary food stored up in the body
IA the form OF fat, much as the un-
burned carbon in the automobile,
which is fed too rich a mixture, Is
deposited on the cylinders. It's a
waste of good material and all 1t does
s to clog up the machinery.
Why do we get fat at forty. Why
10 most men and many women of that
age have large waist lines, and that
Nightmare of all womankind, double
chins? Because after the years of
growth and development have passed.
most of us eat too much and work too
little. We take in too much fuel and
we don't burn up enough.
Are you forty or over? If so, it is
advisable to consider your weight with
care. Are you forty pounds over
weight? If so, look out. It's aot only
a question of beauty and figure, it's a
question of the number of years you
will live. The heaviest death rate for
people over forty is among those who
are forty or more pounds overweight.
Life insurance companies keep care
full records, not only of their own pol
ley holders but also of people in gen.
sral as to which class dies sooner, and
which class lives longer Naturally,
for on these figures are based the
rates they charge, and the closer they
can figure the more money they make.
The average length of time any large
group will live is called the expecta-
ton of life for that group. All life
insurance companies agree that, in
any large group over forty years old,
the fat ones will die sooner and the
lean ones will live longer.
Now knowing this, it's up to you.
You can increase or reduce your own
length of life by your own habits of
living. And don't try to kid yourself
by saying That's all nonsense. My
grandmother weighed over two hum
dred and she lived to be eighty-seven."
Very true. there are individual excep-
tons, and If you want to play 100 to
1 chance, go ahead. But the fact re
mains that the average length of life
is longer for the lean than for the
fat.
And il you decide to reduce, don't
expect pills or powders or magic sys-
TENS to do 1t. Less fattening food
more exercise. That's all there is,
to 1t.

Home-OuOner's Value

The loss of one potential home own

the sixth annual Gown Your Home"

"When a community falls down on
the Job of securing even one family

it loses the 'upkeep' on that family

Ideals in the Home

The home is more than mere shell
ter; it embodies all the finer things Of
life. 1t develops character, culture,
thrift and happiness and is the foun-
dation of society. Every one has, at
least in a faint degree, some concep-
ton of and appreciation for the ideals
that are typified in home. Love-
companionship, stability and right liv-
ing are synonymous with the true
home. These characteristics Of the
home are more highly developed
through the fundamental personal
pride and interest that grow out Of
ownership. From a social standpoint.
therefore, home ownership has many
advantages for both the individual and
society.

MAYHEM Secretary Seward purchased
Wv Alaska from Russia in 1867, he was
widely criticized and even denounced
for wasting public funds. For years.
Alaska was called Stewards Folly"
It was nothing but barren land OF
ice and snow that could never produce
anything of value. Yet, in the fifty
eight years since its purchase, 1t has
produced 100000 in gold and
other minerals, or seventy-four times
as much as it cost.
But Alaska is something more than
gold fields and gold is not even Its
most valuable product. Alaska is one
Of the great food producing regions Of
the world Its fisheries, so far, have
produced $620,O00000 worth of food,
ninety times its original cost and they
are not by any means. fully developed.
So the most valuable product of
Alaska is not gold dust but canned
salmon. Two-thirds of all the salmon
produced in the world Is caught in
Alaska.
value, but it is one of the most eco
nomical foods you can buy. There are
no bones and no waste. You can eat
everything except the can.
The salmon is strangely mysteri-
GUS fish which has long puzzled sci
entists. No other living thing has SO
strange history. They are Matched
in small lakes at the head waters Of
great rivers, hundreds of miles from
the sea. Here they stay until they
are half grown. Then, in response to
some instinct of nature, they swim
down the river, never stopping until
they come to the sea. Where they go
then no man knows. Far out and far
down in the depths Of the ocean per-
haps, for they are never seen for
years. Near the end of life, the sal
mon return to their birthplaces. How
do they know In what stream they
were born or how to get back? No
one knows, but back they come, fight
ing their way against powerful cur
rents and jumping raging rapids, to

males lay their eggs and die.
Now as each river is visited only
by the fish which were born in 1t and
then only once, If all the salmon in a
river are caught, there are none left
to return to it again. That is why,
says Hon. Henry O'Mally. United
States commissioner of fisheries, the
eastern rivers emptying into the At
lantic, which used to breed millions
Of salmon, are now practically ex-
hausted. And that is why the United
States bureau of fisheries is carefully
guarding the Alaskan rivers so that
the salmon may be allowed to in
crease and so provide abundant and
nourishing food for many years to
come.
