Art Era At Hand.
Cincinnati Enquirer )

Cincinnati Enquirer
 Speaking of the significance of art in the new America, Professor Dewitt Henry Parker of the University of Michigan, in recent address de- clared that the greatest artistic in the his- tory of the Nation is at hand Said he:
 History shows that periods of high
 artistic activity usually coincide with
 epochs of political and commercial pre-
 emnenee, and into the latter we have
 already come.
 This is true. We find exemplifcations of this truth in the stories of every great civilization Civilization has it's abundant complexities, it's neVer-endng problems; the average individual Is eoerced by them to spend his days in the ap- plicaton of his nature to some definite specific purpose-to single problem perhaps But ap- preeiation of art, the love of the beautiful scarcely is wholly absent in any human soul Mechanism wreaks dreadful repressions but it cannot kill the longings which spring eternal In the heart and mind of man--we yearn for a something that will lift us above the mire of the commonplace; in some dim way we seem to understand that play and art will bring the freedom which we have not and which we so earnestly desire--freedom of spirit enlargement or nature, exaltation of mind and soul
 Happily as Professor Parker points out we in Amerlca now fast are building tradition and culture of our AS he ayers, the mechanical nature of our civilization has created a need for art and that secure hold on economic wealth so necessary for artistic culture, has, he says been won. It is his firm belief that need and op- portuity will combine to make the future of art In America immense.
 In this constructive building of a lasting and ennobling tradition Cincinnati has had and con tlnues to have conspicuously notable part Not even the metropolis of the Nation has produced greater masters in varied fields of art than Gin einnati-the fields of sculpture painting etching music, ceramics, and in all the cultural byways 'hat nave Tor their mission and inspiration the making of life sweeter brighter and more worth while.

THE ALASKA ROAD COMMISSION.

Last week The Empire contained interviews with Major Malcolm Elliott President of theI Alaska Road Commission, Major D. H. Gillette, Engineer Officer, and L P Taylor, civilian en- gineer, of the organization, reviewing the work of the fast passing season. indicating some of the work that will be completed before the cose of the seasons activities now at hand. and something of the plans for next year. The interviews tell a heartenng story of con tinued improvements of the great road system that is gradually being developed in Alaska the betterments of the roads already constructed and the expansion into new areas opening new country for development and making for more people in the Territory. They also, which is of equal if not more significance, tell of the stantly increasing of the roads.
 The Alaska Road Commission has functioned so continuously and so smoothly for many years that Aaskans do not often-not often enough-consider what it has meant and yet means to this Territory. First and last it prob ably has done toward the development of Alaska than any other agency. It has gone along in busnesslike for a quarter of a century making available for use lands and other natural resources. It has built wisely and we'll, making mistakes seldom occur hens teeth, always advancing and every year leaving the Ter ritory better off than it was the year before. The organization, brought into life by Gen w. P Richardson in the early days of the century, has been in existence long enough to have tradi- tions, and from the first it has lived up to the old United States Army spirit of doing all things we'll
 Beginning with Gen. Richardson, the founder of the Commission. the Alaska Road Commission has been ably managed Gen. Richardson was assisted in the early days in getting the thing started right and to functionng satisfactorily by such men Col. Pillsbury Col. Edgeron, Gen. Davison and others. Then came the war and dull times for the Alaska Road Commission, but it back as efficient as ever with the days of Gen. Steese and Major Gotwals. Col. Steese was able to get Congress to see Alaska through larger appropriation figures than ever before.
 Now the good work is being carried on by Major Elliott, Major Gillette and their organi- zation, measuring up in every way the equal of those that have gone, before Not only has the Alaska Road Commission done good work in Alaska from the beginning, but it is doing good work now and the prospects were never better that it will continue to serve the Territory in accordance with it's fine precedents for many years. Major Elliott, in his efforts to get appro- priations for the Commission. ought to have the unanimous and whole-hearted support of all the people of Alaska. He and his compeers on the Commission are our good friends and benefactors

know the first thing about an au- tomobile but the mere fact her husband is at the wheel is proof enough to her that whatever he Is doing isn't what he should be.
 Considering what poor marks men women are supposed to be if is lucky they have taken to the weed in a form that requires an ash tray instead of a euspidor. Any old married man can tell you that bachelor hasn't the slightest idea of what complained bitterly" means.
 If man likes puzzles all he has to go to get one that will keep him guessing for the rest of his life is to get married.
 If Nature was kinder she would fix it so that when an $1S-a-week stenog is paying the installments on an expensive fur coat, she could get along without eating.
 One of the best things about the shingle bob Is that it makes it im- possible for woman to come down to breakfast with her hair done up in a little knot that makes her look like the gent with the horns and eloyen hoofs.
 Up to the hour of going to press there was not even a rumor that the pink ranges, manve ice boxes and Alice blue sinks had caused a stampede back to the kitchen.
 Middle age is that time when a man recalls how much more satis- factory the results were when that much time was spent by women baking instead of painting.
 If you think a man is impatient 1t is only because you have seen him waiting three minutes for his wife and never have seen him standing three hours in line to get a ticket to fight or for a world series game.

MIR. HOOVER MISSED A CHANGE.

While he skaed near the cracks it is mo- tceable that Candidate Hoover did not touch the open in the seething battle intolerance in the South. While it would have taken a brave man to talk tolerance in what is perhaps the most intolerant section of an intolerant South the preacher-dominated mountains of the hl- billy fundamentalists. believe that the think ing people of the country will believe Mir Hoover missed a wonderful chance to strike for truth and capitalize bravery.
 It is difficult to escape the conclusion that MT Hoover is fighting intolerance much like MT. McAdoo fought the Ku Klux Klan four years ago. He wants it understood that he is tolerant but he refuses to take chance miffing intol- erant voters whose ballots are all ready to be recorded for him.

no sparks or embers ignite nearby prop erty. A safe practice is to provide an incinerator or metal basket for burning such material.
 Rags and cloths which have been used for polishing furniture and oiling floors subject to spontaneous ignition if left exposed to the air for a period of time. In order to overcome this hazard they should be kept in tightly covered metal containers or else de- stroyed.
 In the fall of the year lawns are likely to be covered with dry leaves Several years' ago a confagration was started in an Eastern city when a pile of such leaves was burned. Burying them will remove bad source of fire and at the same time enrich the soil

Every cii- in this community is urged to see that all refuse and other waste material is collected and destroyed.
 Some suggestions have been prepared by the Insurance Department of the Chamber of Com merce of the United States to eliminate hazardous conditions caused by rubbish They are as follows:

Senator Hitchcock asked a pertinent question when he wanted to know why it was if high tariff is the best assistance the country can give the farmers that during the years between 1921 and 1928 the average price of manufactured goods had advanced 56 per cent in value while during the period the average price on farm products had dropped 34 per cent.

Carter Glass on the Whisperers.
fNew York World.)

This is what the distinguished Senator f7or 'irginia Carter Glass, former Secretary of tn reasury in the Wilson Cabinet, is thinking an ayng to Virginia voters about the whisperin ampagn The citation is from the report i he Alexandria Gazette of Sept 21:
 If there are any two religious de- nominations on this hemisphere that ought to stand responsible and immov- able for religious freedom it is the Methodist and the Baptist, for no two men on earth learned the meaning of persecution than John Wesley and Roger Williams; or, if some Baptist would prefer, I could go back further in history to the founding of his church by John the Baptist; he had his head cut off because of religious intoler- ance.
 Here in old Virginia the very cradle of civil and religius liberty. we should have this issue elected Thomas Jeff ferson the founder of the Democratic Party, considered the greatest Virgnian that breathed the founder of religious freedom. When he came to lie down and die, with his own hand he wrote the inscription for his mono- lith. It said nothing about being a great Minister from this country to France said nothing about being the greatest Secretary of State of all times; said nothing about being the honored yice-President of the United States and Governor of Virginia; said nothing about two terms as President of the United States, but he wrote Author of the Declaration of Independence and the Vir- gnia Statute of Religious Freedom, and the founder of the University of Vir- ginia."
 My friends if we in Virginia have far departed from the faith of that great man legacy as to defeat Al Smith a religious issue we had bet ter send some of those vandals to Mon ticelo on the 7th day of November to carve from his tomb the inscription which he wrote there with his own hand.
 Could anything be better said? What r whsper-is possible?
