removal of the old street
car systems rails on Tacoma
streets has been reached by
the TRIP. Co. and the city.
Under terms of an agreement
just concluded. the bus COM
pany puts up the cash and the
city public works department
will do the task. The job of
removing street car rails and
repaving on streets where
surfacing is disrupted will be
done in one year rather than
three, as provided in the terms
of the bus franchise.
Responsibility for clearing
the relics of the street car
system thus passes from the
utility to the city. The latter
is more than willing to under
take the work. Apparently
happy solution of a difficult
problem has been achieved.
Extra work for many men
now idle will be assured. The
city can rush the cleanup job,
and everyone will be infinitely
happier over the outcome.
How important training and |
discipline are was we'll H. |
Illustrated Wednesday. The oc-
casion was the airplane crash
and "bailing out" of Lieut.. F.
M. Hardison, Fort Lewis pilot.
On an ordinary, routine flight,
the army man suddenly ran
into a stalled motor. Ice had
caused the carburetor to stop
functioning. Death stared the
aviator in the face. Out Of
control, the machine swept
earthward. Failing in his eff
forts to right the craft. the
pilot did the only thing he
could do. He leaped out in the
parachute he had with him.
He escaped with a slightly
sprained ankle, though the
government machine was de-
molished.
Cool and calm, Hardison did
the thing army training and
discipline bring about, good
judgment in a crisis. He kept
his wits, did the things that
good pilots are taught to do.
Technical education helps, but
the discipline and training
that goes with it are vitality
essential. Would that more of
this were established in civil

Millett Explains Ten Ways 10 Tell
Whether You Are Being TWo-Faced'
By RUTH MILLETT

One face is enough for a woman.
When she is two-faced she doesn't
get along very we'll. An honest an
swer to the following questions will
give you a good idea if you have
two faces-and are putting the worst
one forward.
1. Do you rave over how we'll a
friend looks and then say to another
friend, isn't it a shame the way
Dora let herself get fate"
2. Do you invite people to your
house and then pick them apart next
day?
8. DO you pretend to be a friend
of someone you actually dislike?
4. Do you agree with the shocked
disapproval expressed by one friend
of another when you honestly think
his actions are justified?
j. Do you say you are tolerant and
yet blame an individuals faults or
his race?
U. LIZ yOu w SOC1dl welfare WOck
and yet refuse to give your maid
any time off?
7. Do you listen sympathetically
to a friends troubles-and then tell
other people what a dope he is for
getting into such a mess?
8. Do you pretend around certain
people that you do not drink and
think it is terrible-when you dc
drink?
8. Do you tell two people who are
fighting that you think each one OF
them is exactly right?
10. Do you pretend to be a frierd
of a woman and say such things tc
her husband as 1--WE never seer
your wife look so nice. That weight

If you have more than two Yes
answers-it is time to start getting
