A Simple Traffic Expedient.

one very simple expedient which would
add materially to the freedom Of the
streets for vehicular movement would
be 10 regulate the hours Of delivery
services to all establishments not so
located as to permit access through
alleys or area ways sufficiently spacious
to accommodate large trucks.
A number Of cities throughout the
country have adopted regulations re-
quiring all deliveries Of supplies to be
made either before seven O'Clock or
after nine o'clock in the morning. The
experiment has proved highly success
full in preventing the piling up Of trafic
on heavily travelled thoroughfares dur
ing the two hours when the entire busi-
ness population is crowding into the
downtown district.
Every morning in this city during
the peak Of the rush delivery trucks
clutter up the trafic lanes by parking
more often double parking-near the
establishments which they serve. Ice
cream trucks, pie wagons, huge whole
sale grocery and drug vans, bread
wagons, ice carts" linen supply trucks,
furnace Oil trucks, even garbage col
lecting vehicles of the municipal gov
ernment, are parked in places where
they occupy more than half Of the
width of the streets, preventing the
easy flow Of moving trafic and fire.
quently causing snarls and tie-ups.
There Is no business establishment
in Washington, from the lowliest lunch
room to the most palatial Government
ONCE building, where delivery of supplies
could not be made just as well before
seven o'clock or after nine o'clock in
the morning as between those hours,
and more particularly between eight
thirty and nine O'Clock, which, appar-
emily, is the period now most favored
for these services.

William Wilberforce.

throughout the English-speaking
world recently the centenary OF the
death of William Wilberforce was OBJ
served. Especially in Jamaica. Sierra
Leone and other portions of the British
Empire where slavery formerly pre-
vailed is his memory recalled with ap-
probation. He was the sponsor Of the
celebrated emancipation act Of 1888 by
the provisions of which the slave trade
was abolished and its victims were
liberated.
The son Of Hull merchant, Wilber-
force was endowed for philanthropy by
the inheritance Of large fortune. His
mind freed from the cares of the ordi-
nary man, he was able to devote all his
energies to the service Of social free
dom. Fresh from Cambridge, he early
made a name for himself in Parlia-
ment by his support of Pitt in opposi-
tion to the American war. Travel on
the continent and the friendship Of
Isaac Miner and Thomas Clarkson
Influenced his thought toward ever
more liberal attitudes, and he became,
as Lord Brougham said, lone Of the
greatest benefactors Of the human
race"
But he never was fanatical in the
Advocacy of his radical views. On the
contrary, Sir James Macintosh de-
scribes him as "the very model Of re-
former ardent without turbulence.
mild without timidity or coldness;
neither yielding to difficulties, nor dis.
turbed or exasperated by them just

various interpretations put upon words

What does a man who lays the

He attempts to divest truth Of human
personality.

TIE talk drifted to other matters, and
his opponent upheld theory dear to

lamp-post, and asserting. If you and

But it would still be here, Just the
same"
1t was merely youthful attempt to
prove the unproveable, to divest truth
OF human personality.
1t was doomed to failure, because few
persons want abstract truth.
They want their truth hammered with
their own colors.
They want it saturated with their
own perfumes, burning their own Pc
culiar lights. The hold of personality
is too great. they insist on seeing every
thing in the world from their own In

the passage OF the rapids just below
the rock in the dark. they made camp
on the western bank opposite it. The
rock being the most conspicuous object

French King Bridge.
