FLEET COMING TO PORTLAND

Let the Growing Boy Have His Rabbits
and Know Their Funny Habits.
By E. C. HUFFMAN, Denver Realtor.
Parenta rise in holy wrath at the landlords who refuse to allow chil­
dren to live in their apartment houses.
Yet, in my opinion, children should not be cooped up in apartments,
where there is no yard in which they can romp. Growing children need
the fresh air, green grass and contact with the soil.
life in an apartment house leaves the growing boy without the ne-
seeeity of doing small chores that tend to give him the habit of work bo
must do when he is grown. This generation is inclining more and more
to the idea ot letting the other fellow do the work.
My advice to parents is, take the children out into the open. Let
them know what it is to carry in the coal after school. Let them know
the joy of digging into the fresh earth. Start the child at work in a gar­
den plot in the back yard. Let him see nature at work. I^et the growing
boy have h/s rabbits and pigeons and know their funny habits.

Residents of 65th avenue, in the
district between 82nd and 92nd
streets, have a kick; a legitimate
cause for complaint, and, failing any
other effective method of getting
satisfaction and redress, they ask
the Herald to voice it for them.
About two yean ago those living
in the territory mentioned got to­
gether, and, with the assistance of
maay local business men. secured
the sum of $740,
.
with which it was
proposed to repair 65th avenue and
put it into auch

enable them to have groceries and
other merchandise delivered to their
homes.
The avenue at that time
was not much more than a cow-path;
it waa not graded and the whole
street was dotted with stumps and
brush.
They tried without success
to get relief from the eity and coun­
ty, but both branches of government
were adepts at “passing the buck”
and it became necessary to find
some other means of getting the
work dor.e. The amount they raised
was not great as such sums go, but
to them it meant much, for the
homes there are not pretentious and
every dollar put into the improve­
ment was hard-earned.
For exam­
ple, one woman, a widow of modest
means, gave $25, and the other sums
contributed Wre gmalR of necessity
After the money was raised, the
county agreed to permit the road de­
partment to furnish the material
and machinery, in return for the
$740, and as a result, with the added
labor of several of the home-owners
of the locality, a very fair street
was graded and rocked.
That was two years ago. Today
the street is in almost aa bad shape
as it was before being improved.
Heavy trucks, most of which are in
the county’s service, it is said, have
cut and rutted the surface until it is
a mass of chuekholes the entire
length. The Herald man was taken
over it from 82nd to 92nd and had
an excellent opportunity to examine
it thoroughly, and it is no exaggera.
tion to say that 90 per cent of the
backwoods country roads are in bet­
ter condition.
And so the people who put up
their hard-earned money to make it
possible to get in and out of their
property protest.
They tried to
have the proper authorities build a
street, and failed. Then they raised
the hard cash and built it them­
selves. After two years of ordinary
use on their part they are back
where they started; sans cash, sans
street
The same authorities who
refused to grant them relief are res­
ponsible for their present dilemma,
and unless three latter will repair
the damage they have occasioned,
the street will remain almost en­
tirely useless for al) except foot
traffic.

What the Women of America Are Doing
Today to Help Keep Down Unrest
By REPRESENTATIVE JOHN MAC CRATE of New York.
We have listened to men discuss the burden resting upon officials
who administer the financial affairs of the city, state and nation, and we
have wondered what these government experts would do were they lim­
ited to incomes as are the women of our homes.
Governmental officials are continually exceeding the amount allotted
to their departments and congress, too frequently without condemnation,
appropriates more. Did the average housewife of America spend what
comae to her from the family with the open-handed carelessness of some
departmental heads the unrest which we see about us would be multi­
plied a thousandfold. It ia utterly impossible to calculate what the women
of America are doing today toward keeping down riot and revolution.
If eux efficiency experts in the field of government could make a
little go as long a way and could adjust expenditures to income as well
as do the women of our households, thia nation would soon see ita in-
dabtedneas reduced.
