cried, "Doggone your hide, I thank

CLKANI.NtJ UP THE LANDSCAPE
COLONIC EDWARD S. CORNELL
head of tho National Hlghwnyn
Protocttvo socioty, announces
that his organization is going to
fight for a Inw providing for a fino
of $2G or ton days In JalJ for anyone
who places n sign on a hlghwny or
causes ono to bo placed. Tho law is
to apply equally to tho advertiser and
tho ownor of tho abutting property
who consents to tho advertising.
It would bo an excellent thing If
Biich a law woro onacted Jn overy
state. It ,;,ny bo Impossiblo at pros-1
uni to prouiuii owners ironi leuuiK
their own property to bo dofncea by
billboards and trndo legouds, but cer
tainly communities hnvo n right to
kcop tho public thoroughfares free
from such disfigurements. And when
that desirable aim la accomplished,
perhaps the lesson will so sink Into
tho minds of vnndal advertisers and
real estate owners that both classes
of offenders will bo less inclined to
mar the beauty of natural sconery
in either city or country.
It is dawning on tho Amerlcnn
people thnt landscapes have their
rights, and that attractive scones freo
from all sordid romlndors nro very
much worth whllo, for tho plensuro
tholr beauty gives; nlso, that If prof
it is 10 uo commierou, pays nor
tor financially for nny community
to niako its environment beautiful ;
tiian to clutter it up with glaring i
mis. Tho nvorago citizen Is begin
ning to feol that he has a right to
look across tho street or out of a
car window without having his oyo
constantly offended by ugly or Incon
gruous billboards. Excltnngo.
LICENSE CHIMNEY SWEEPS
CHIMNEY bwoops in Portland nro

about it, why not? That Is an
important business, and no ono

SURE ENOUGH
"Which ono of tho ten command
ments did Adam break when ho ate

teacher.
"He didn't break nny," replied tho
small boy, "bocnuso thoy wasn't any

Upon tlio Subject of Allies
Wr Auaclttx I'rc" to Cooi najr Tlmr. ,
NEW YORK, Nov. 0. In outlin
ing his plan for National defenses,
President Wilson, nt tho Manhnttnti
Club Bald:
In nccordanco with our Amorl
cau traditions wo wnut and shall
work for only mi nrmy ndequnto to
tho constant and lcgltlmato uses of
times of International peace. But
wo do want to feel that thcro Is u
great body of citizens who hnvo re
ceived nt least tho most rudlmontary
nnd necessary forma of military
training; thnt thoy will bo ready to
form thomsolvcs into n fighting
force nt tho call of tho Nation nnd
that tho Nation has tho munitions
and supplies with which to equip
them without dolny, should it bo
noccssnry to rail thorn Into action.
Wo wish to supply them with tho
training thoy- need mid wo think wo
cnu do so without calling them at
any time too long- away from their
civilian pursuits.
What l'lnii Provides.
"It is with tills idea, this con
ception in mind that tho plans hnvo
bcon mndo which It will bo my priv
ilege to lay beforo tho Congress nt
Its next soEslon, Thnt plan calls for
only such an lncicaso In tho regular
army of tho United States as cxpor
louco hns- provQd to bo required for
tlio performance of tho necessary
duties or tho army In tho Philip
pines, In Hawaii, In Porto Rico, up
on tho borders of tho United States,
nt tho coast fortification nnd at
tho military posts of tho Interior.
"For tho rest, it calls for tho
training within tho noxt tlirco years,
of n forco of 100,000 citlzon sold
iers to bo raised in annual contin
gents of 133,000, who would bo
asked to onllst for threo years with
tho colors and threo years on fur
lough, but who during their threo
years of enlistment with tho colors
would not bo organized as a stand
ing forco, but would bo expected
merely to undergo Intonsivo trnln
Ing for n very brief period of each
year. Tholr training would tako
plnoo In Immodlato association with
ti
rr-"zci units of tho regular
nr:,
v::u:u nivo no touch of
tho amatour about It, nolthor would
It oxnet from volunteers moro than
thoy could glvo In nny ono yoar
from tholr civilian pursuits.
About National Cuard
"And nono of this would bo dono
In such n way as in tho slightest
degree to suporsedo or subordlnnto
our presont sorvlceaDlp and effi
cient Nntlonnl Guard. On tho con
trary, tho National Guard Itself
would be used as part of tho Instru
mentality by which irnlnlng would
bo given tho citizens who enlisted
under tho now conditions, and I
should hopo and expect that tho
legislation by which ull this would
bo accomplished would put tho Nat
ional Guard Itself on n bettor and
moro permanent footing than it has
over been beforo, giving It not only
the recognition which It deserves,
but a moro definite support from tho
National Government and a moro
definite connection with tho mili
tary organization of tho Nation."
Tolls About Aliens.
Touching upon another subject,
the Pjesldont said. "Tho only thing
within our own borders that has
given us grave concern In repent
months has been that voices have
been raised in America professing
to bo the voices of Americans which
were not Indeed and In truth Amor-
lean, hut which spoke alien sym-
Ipnthles, which camo from mon who

Theso men who npeak alien sym

nro tho spokesmen of small groups
