Carnegie Centenary.

Washington has particular interest In
the celebration of the centenary OF
Andrew Carnegie. 1t happens that the
city had a special place in the heart
of the man born at historic Dunfermline
q hundred years ago today. During the
conflict between the States he learned
to love the Nations Capital and, as an
executive assistant to Secretary Of War
Thomas A. Scott, helped to defend 1t.
Later, when he was distributing his vast
wealth In the interest of "the improve
ment of mankind" he allotted to the
District of Columbia the funds for the
main building and three branches of
the Public Library. He also chose the
Federal center of the United States for
his Endowment for International Peace
and the Carnegie Institution of Wash
ington, established in aid of scientific re-
search; and he contributed s850000 to
construct the Pan-American Union head
quarters. Just before his death. August
IL, 1919, he is reported to have expressed
the wish that all his philanthropies
might be correlated here.
But Carnegie did not belong 10 any

Bus BreakdOwns.

AS result Of survey of the equip
ment of the Capital Transit Company
the chief engineer of the Public Utilities
Commission has recommended that from
twenty-five to fifty new busses be pur-
chased, not to extend the service, but to
insure the maintenance of schedules
already established. During October, the
survey reveals, eighty-five breakdowns
occurred, sixty of which concerned new
equipment. The question is put up to
the company by the commission whether
these breakdowns, causing "detentions"
in the service, were due to inherent de-
fects in the equipment, to the unfa-
miliarity with the new vehicles of the
drivers formerly street car operatives, or
to insufficient garage personnel.
The riding public is not concerned
with the causes Of these breakdowns. but

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

The Young man who liked chess was
complaining that he could find no one
to play with.
And it was true.
Chess players, good, bad or Indifferent,
do not grow on trees.
One has to have certain type Of men,
tality to play this royal game.
Just what the type is, however, is diff
cult to put the finger on.
The beginning enthusiast, in any spe-
cialty. will find it well to join a club
devoted to the same.
1t is an amazing fact, how few really
ardent devotees of many really gorgeous
occupations are to be found in the public
at large.
Take stamps, or tropical fishes, for
instance.
How many people will you run into, in
the everyday walks of life, who are en-
thusiaSts?
And you may miss the few you happen
to bump into, in average walks, because
they have got past the talkative stage.
Every one knows the talking state Of
a hobby.
One is so full Of the new enthusiasm
that one simply must talk about 1t.
The truth seems to be that one often
talks to exactly the wrong people, unless
club member.
All one succeeds in doing, aside from
letting off little personal steam, is to
bore the other fellow.
Unless he is an enthusiast, too, this
famous "other fellow" will soon find it
convenient to change the subject.
This is shock to the happiness OF
the man who has something on his mind.
He wants to get it off, but he chooses the
wrong way
After time his hobby gets into its
proper place in his life. Then he is not
so inclined to bore all and sundry with
1t, but reserves it for few choice spirits.
y
The danger of the club, Of course, is
that every one in it talks too much.
And too positively.
If it weren't for the ultra positive
speaker, in any club, in every club
and he is many, not one. of course-the
enthusiast would have easy sailing.
AS it is, he must meet and overcome
the big man with the big voice, who
always knows more than he does, who
invariably has stamps twice as rare, or
tropical fishes three times as big, as his
own.
The man with the big bazoo always
is in the lead.
He is at once the curse and the pride
Of every organization.
And what a stickler for convention
and orthodoxy he is!
No gain is ever made in any organiza-
ton through him. because he is always
on the lookout for the first tinges of
innovation.
He who dares see things for himself.
and discover errors in generally accepted
practice, has this gentleman to face.
No doubt the know-it-all has his place
in clubs, as well as in the world at large
He makes sure that thing is thoroughly
tested before it is accepted.

single neighborhood. His mind from
first to last was universal in range. He
was concerned with every department
of human enterprise. Perhaps the back
ground of his career and the environ
ment of his childhood and youth explain
the multiplicity of his enthusiasms. BY
inheritance he was romantic in tenn
perament and by the compulsion OF cir
cumstance he was an amateur. The
genius in him and the long series of
accidents whereby that power was given
opportunity to function remain to be
analyzed by biographer competent to
the task. Meanwhile, worldwide public
holds his name in grateful remembrance.
The fruits of Carnegie's life, 1t should
be noted, have been far more generally
effective than might be supposed at a
casual glance. He himself spent $780,
100000 to advance the causes in which he
enlisted. But that was an Insignificant
sum compared with those offered by
other individuals inspired by his example.
In sober fact, he set fashion which,
fortunately, still prevails. The forty
millionaires he made" have followed in
the path he blazed and literally thou
sands of richer or less rich individuals
have been guided in their charities by
the pattern he laid down. In the
genealogy of modern altruism he was
the founder of new idealiSm, a new
technique and new method. Thus
as he frankly intended, he has been
civilizing force; he has lifted up the race
Honoring his memory, the peoples he
strove to aid recall him as one of them
selves He was of them as well as for
them, and his attraction is enhanced
by his authentic humanity. Washing
tonianS see him as he was on January
7, 1903, when the Library was dedicated
a gentle and kindly soul, plain and
unassuming, happy in his privilege OF
living and giving.

The Thin Edge.

Fears that the Japanese promoted
autonomous" movement in North
China was not abandoned, but only
postponed, have been speedily con-
firmed. On Sunday an independent
government was set up in the demili-
tarized zone of Hopei Province, compre-
hending the eastern portion lying athwart
the Great Wall. The selection of that
particular region for the opening act OF
the f1ve-province separatist tragi-comedy
is highly significant. The area involved,
embracing twenty-five counties with
population of about 100000, projects
southwark into the important territory
that separates Peiping from Tientsln.
Bordering on the ehol-Manchukuo
frontier, where strong japanese military
forces are assembled, Eastern Hopel IS
ideally suited to the Toxic war lords
purposes, if and whenever they decide
the moment is ripe for invasion of North
China on the grand scale. The "Hopel
Autonomous Federation for Joint De-
fense Against Communism" bears ali the
earmarks of being the thin edge Of Gen.
Doihara's wedge.
Yin Ju-Keng, chief sponsor OF the new
state, makes unblushing avoWal OF his
motives From his capital OF TungchoW,
only twelve miles east of Peiping's outer
wall. Yin pledges his government to rec
ognize the sovereignty" of Marking, but
in the same breath warns that he Will
allow no interference with local matters.
Control over taxes, revenue, the posts,
telegraphs, railroads, courts and MILL
tary and foreign affairs will be exercised
without regard to the central govern
ment. headed by the incalculable Gen.
Chang Kai-Shek. To all intents and
purposes Eastern Hopei is now the seat
of an independent" regime-how inde-
pendent is amply evidenced by Ylns
declaration that he stands "tor the
rescue of China" and will work closely
with Japan" Japanese-educated ana
married to Japanese wife, all external
indications Justify the belief that Yin's
coup is the first thrust of the Toxic
miIitarists toward coveted domination OF
North China under the guise of spon-
taneous independence" uprising by Its
95 100000 inhabitants.
Violence is deemed likely as result
of the Hopei development. In view
thereof, Japanese military authorities an
nounce that disorder will be the instant
signal for action by their troops crouch
ing for the attack at Shanhaikwan, at
the eastern extremity of the Great Wall.
That would, of course, mean invasion OF
China proper" If Chang Kai-shek's
assertions of determination to defend the
territorial integrity of the country at all
costs are anything but grandiloquent
boasts, Sino-Japanese war would be the
inevitable consequence.
The Toxic army hotspurs unqueStlon-
ably crave such a prospect. Before their
hopes can be realized, the civilian gov
ernment and the all-inf1uential imperial
authority must be reckoned with, to say
nothing of the foreign interests now
definitely menaced by the approach OF
the japanese threat to the very gates
of Peiping and Tientsin, with their gar
risons of Western troops, including those
of the United States.

The beginner at chess will find q
noble literature attending 1t.
Perhaps there is no game, either in
tellectual or physical, which has SO
extensive a library accompanying it.
The game of bridge has built up an
enormous number Of books, in short
time, but works on chess have been pub
lished for hundreds Of years and in all
languages.
Arabs, Hindus, Chinese-theSe and
scores of others have loved the royal
game over centuries, and made it into
the game 1t is today.
In a changing world chess does not
change. Like the musical instrument we
call the violin, 1t is perfect.
While it might be an interesting ex-
pertinent to tamper with its men and
moves and rules, very few are willing to
try, being satisfied with the game as it is.
Although its forms are those Of war,
actually it is the most peaceful occupa-
ton in the world, being among the most
intellectual.
1t requires a certain sort of intelli-
gence, however; let the beginner be
assured Of that; certain type, that is,
If the ultimate reaches of the game are
to be mastered.
Only a few, in every generation, will
attain these peaks.
The rest must be content with doing
their best.
Very few persons who study mathe-
maticS, for instance, make great mathe-
maticians, but no one who makes an
attempt can but say he has been the
gamer for his pains.
1t is so with chess, and in a peculiar
way, because chess appeals most strongly
to what may be called the literary tenn
perament. whereas every one knows that
mathematics does no such thing.
The underlying reason that the lit
erary person, so-called, finds chess much
to his liking is precisely because of its
ancestry He is unable to forget the vast
background, the centuries given over to
the formation of all of it.
The vast parade of figures in the chess
world is one to warm the cookies of the
heart of any one who cherishes legend.
And each game is story, no matter
how poorly played.
X 4
The one thing to keep in mind is this:
Do not take this game too seriously
Only the chess genius has right to
do that.
The rest of us, if we concentrate too
much on the game, will find only dis
appointment in it, because it will make
us dislike to get beaten.
When any game-and this includes the
greater game Of Ife-is taken so seri-
ously that we had rather not play it
than get licked, the time has come to
give it up.
Let the beginning chess enthusiast,
then, play the game as best he can, study
it, enjoy its intricacies to the best of
his ability, but let him at the same time
highly resolve not to take the game too
seriously, unless he is sure he is another

mad.

poets and it demands dependable, regular
and faithfully maintained service, which
involves sound equipment and competent
operation. 1t appreciates that the sched-
ules may not be maintained to the
minute throughout the day, owing to
traffic blocks and the hazards of the
streets, which may involve the public
service vehicles. But it protests the fail
ure of schedules due to undependable
machines, incompetent garage service
and inadequate operation.
For long period the fact has been
urged, in the discussion of the advan-
tages of the bus over the street car run
ming on a track, that the former was
superior in point of reliability, in that
the failure of single unit would not
block the entire system and that the
operation Of the bus does not depend
upon the condition of a line of rails with
an underground or, on suburban lines,
an overhead electric conductor. This
advantage is lessened in the degree that
the independent unit OF transport lacks
in dependability. While the passengers
on a bus that breaks down or fails from
any cause in the course of run may
be transferred to the next conner, the
service, though not altogether checked,
is not as good as it should be.
Of course, the operating company is
fully aware of this fact. And naturally
the company wants to maintain the
service at its highest point of efficiency.
But it may not wish to expend large
sum in new equipment as reserve or re-
placement stock, in order to guarantee
a higher standard of dependable service.
The Public Utilities Commission may,
however, regard the matter strictly from
the viewpoint of the patron, the public,
and insist upon such stocking OF the
garages and such service in them that
the schedules may be scrupulously main
tanned, as far as the condition OF the
streets permits, and improved from time
to time as the public accommodation
requires.
