Members of the East Side Business Men's club are conducting an active campaign to impress members of the city council with the advisability of purchasing four to six blocks In the Buckman tract, just south of the Ben son Polytechnic school, for ball grounds and other athletics, and a site of two blocks for playgrounds on Fast Madison and Fast Salmon be tween East Eleventh and East Twelfth street. In a lengthy communication ad dressed to the city council L. M. Lep per, secretary of the club, gives data which he sets forth in support of the arguments advanced for the purchase of these two tracts. Another tract under consideration by city authorities, located from East Seventeenth to East Twentieth and from Yamhill street to Belmont street, is opposed by the club membership, according to the letter. This tract, Mr. Lepper said, "is being urged largely because the people have some thing they wish to sell and unload onto the city at a good round price." "We are urging the purchases of the Buckman tract and the two blocks in the Hawthorne tract," wrote Mr. Lepper, "for the good of the dis trict and the children, present and future. We are after accessible and ideal sites, regardless of locations." The council has set next Tuesday afternoon as a time for hearing of arguments in favor of various pro posals offered for playground sites in central east side.

Speaker Says Civilization Is Based on Home Which. Develops Right Citizenship. A tribute to the home, as the' basis of the world's civilization and the place from whence has sprung the uplifting and refining influences of mankind, was delivered before the Portland realty board by Judge Stapleton at the regular weekly luncheon and meeting of the board at the Benson hotel yesterday noon. "There is something behind our civilization, something upon which it rests, something that must sustain it, something without which it could not be and would not continue," declared the judge, "and that something is the home." He briefly told of the home first as a place of abode to care for the physical wellbeing and expressed the opinion that In the present cold weather many Portlanders, marooned from their homes by the storm, had come to appreciate as never before the comforts of their own firesides. "Civilization, like any other struc ture, like any other institution, reli gious or political, must have a proper support," he continued, "a proper foundation upon which to rest, or it will topple and fall. We frequently hear it stated that the four recognized pillars of our civilization are the church, the school, the home and the state. It la true that these are the four pillars as we ordinarily refer to them, but to my mind they are all contemplated in the one word which describes that one institution from which all the others sprung, the home. "Experience has taught us that it is not the wealth of gold nor the pride of position that makes the happy, contented and useful home, but that we more frequently find in the home of the humble and reliable citizen those things that go to make up the pillars of civilization. All life is indebted to the home. The begin ning of every honorable institution was in the home. Every valued activ ity may trace its source to the home. Here the seed of every bit-and kind of human organization has first sprung into strong life." In closing the speaker rererred to the home as the great first training place for citizenship. "The father and mother who are not training. the child so as to make of him a good citizen, are uninten tionally doing the directly opposite thing to the detriment of our social and political life," he said. "As the body politic builds beacon lights to guide aright the boats and navigate our great waters, so should the so cial body prepare alike assistance for the ship-wrecked homes." The programme of the day was rounded out by the regular weekly report of W. B. Shively of the legal committee and a resolution urging the county commissioners to retain on its budget an item of $30,000 for the 1920 Rose festival was adopted. PLEA MADE TO AUTOISTS Blocking of Street Car Traffic Is Called to 3Iayor's Attention. Mayor Baker last night issued an emphatic appeal to all autoists and drivers of delivery trucks and other conveyances to co-operate in every way possible with the street railway company in keeping the traffic moving at all points. "I am not making this appeal on behalf of the street-car company, but in the interests of the general public." emphasized the mayor. "I have re ceived a great number of complaints during the day of scores of automo bilists becoming stalled in front of street cars and thus tying up traffic for a considerable length of time. If these drivers would bear in mind A Watch for Christmas In the line of gifts, no one ar ticle so closely, so thoroughly entwines itself into our daily lives, nothing so greatly creates recurring thoughts of the giver, no gift more heartily appre ciated.
