Secretary Franklin K. Lane made a speech on Hag Day that leads the New York Evening Tost to observe that "it is nut often that the hard-working head of a department and a department preeminently devoted to economic tasks makes a venture so original and ao successful in the domain of oratory." In two successive weeks recently the supreme court has ren dered four decisions defining and clari fying the relations between interstate railroads and the Interstate Commerce Commission and the rights of the Com mission in naming rates. In all four of these cases, cays the Evening Post, "the decisions of the Interstate Com merce Commission, written by Frank lin K. Lane, now secretary of the in terior, when he wsb a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission, .have been fully sustained and atiirmed, and virtually on the same grounds taken by Mr. Lane in writing the decisions of the Interstate Commerce Commission." The Hug Day speech was addressed to no higher tribunal than the clerks of his department. And the same paper observes that it contains "no bathos and no cant." Moreover, "incredible as it may aocm.the very word 'service' is not to be found in it, from end to end." This is the speech in full : "'I his morning, as I passed into the Land GfTice, the flng dropped me a most cordial salutation, and from its rippling folds 1 heard it say: 'Good morning, Mr. Flag-maker.' " '1 beg your pardon, Old Glory,' 1 said, 'you are mistaken, i arn not the president of the United States, nor the vice', president, nor a member of con gress, nor oven a general in the army. I am only a government clerk.' " '1 greet you again, Mr. Flag-maker,' replied the guy 'voice. '1 know you well. You are the man who worked in the swelter of yesterday straighten ing out the tangle of that farmer's homestead in Idaho.' " 'No, I am not,' I was forced to confess. " 'Well, perhaps you are the one who discovered the mistake in that Indian contract in Oklahoma7' " 'No, wrong agsin,' I said. " 'Well, you helped to clear that patent for tho hopeful inventor in New York, or pushed the opening of that new ditch in Colorado, or made that mine in Illinois more safe, or brought relief to the old soldier in Wyoming. No matter, whichever one of these beneficent inidvidualg you may happen to be, 1 give you greeting, Mr. Flag maker.' "I was about to puss on, feeling that I was being mocked, when the Hag stopped me with these words: " 'You know, the world knows, that yesterday the president spoke a word that made happier the future of ten million peons in Mexico, but that act looms no larger on the (lag than the struggle which the boy in Georgia is making to win the com club prize this summer, Yesterday the congress spoke a word which will open the door of Alaska, but a mother in Michigan worked from sunrise until far into the night to give her boy an education. She, too, is making the flug. Yetserday we niHile a new law to prevent financial panics; yesterday, no doubt, a school teacher in Ohio taught his first letters to a boy who will write a song that will give cheer to the millions to our race. We are all making the ting.' " ' Hut,' 1 said, impatiently, 'those peoplo who were only working.' "Thin came a great shout from the flag. " ' 1 et me tell you who I am. The work thut we do is the making of the real flug. I am not the flag, not at all. 1 am but its shadow. 1 am whatever you make me, nothing more. I urn your belief in yourself, our dream of what a people may become. 1 live a changing life, a lite of moods and passions, of heartbreaks and tired muscles. Some times 1 am strong with pride, when men do an honest ork, fitting the rails together truly. Sometimes I droop, for then purpose, has gone from me, and cynically 1 play the coward. Some times 1 am loud, garish, and full of that ego that blasts judgment. Hut aways I am all thut you hope to be and have the courage to try for. 1 am song and fear, struggle and panic, and en nobling hope. I am the day's work of the weakest man and the largest dream of the most daring. 1 am the constitu tion and the courts, statutes and statute-makers, soldier and dreadnought, drayman and street sweep, cook, coun selor and clerk. I am the battle of yesterday and the mistake of tomor row. I am the mystery of the men who do without knowing why. I am the clutch of an idea and tho seasoned pur pose of resolution. 1 am no more than what you believe me to be, and I am all that you believe 1 can be. I am what you make me, nothing more. 1 awing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a symbol of yourself, the pic tured suggestion of that big thing which makes this nation. My stars and my stripes are your dreams and your labors. They are bright with cheer, Lriilisnt with courage, firm with faith, because you have made them so out of your hearts, for you are the makers of the flag, and it is well that you glory in the making." There have been many demands for copies of Mr. Lane'a speech since knowledge of it got abroad. GEM PROGRAM TODAY every game. necessary for beams, again "The Giants-White Sox World Tour," in six reels of startling motion pictuie. It was an enthusiastic fan who, when he heard that the Giants and White Sox were going to make a trip of the world, decided that he would go along. He did not have much funds for the trip, so that his going was not all pleasure, but he went, and he saw Sometimes it became him to ride the brake to stow-away, and at stopping places he had to work and beg. But he stuck to the teams like frim death and came home with them, he movie man who went along and took pictures of the games played in almost all countries of the world, be fore crowned heads and beggars, and in many of the most renowned historical places on the globe, devoted some of his attention to the troubles of the fan. And so the film which will be shown today is interspersed with some of the best humnr that the screen has ever shown. The two famous teams were filmed in action all around the world, starting from Cincinnati. They visited Japan, China, Manilla, Austria, India, Fgypt, Naples, Home, France and England. They were given an oppor tunity to see many places of interest that are denied to the ordinary tourist, and the camera man got views of these places. Many incidental pictures, such a a hurricane at sea, when the waves broke repeatedly over the camera man and nearly swept him away, made the record of the trip a remarkable scenic itory, as well as historical, educational and entertaining in a high degree.

Editor Glacier: The United States Department of Agriculture has shown tbat in the average apple district about 50 per cent of the fruit raised does not leave the counties where grown in tresh commercial form. In some of the east ern states this percentage runs fom 40 to 45, in the Pacific coast states it ag gregates 55 per cent. On this basis the 1914 crop, which is small for various reasons, amounting to only 12,000 car loads, here would be 15,000 carloads, between 9,000,000 and 10.000,000 boxes, and over 225,000 tons of apples which never left the counties in which they were grown. It would be physical impossibility for the northwest states to consume any Buch quantity of apples in the fresh state, and probably less than 50,000 tons of these apples were manufactured into by-products, for want of plants located where they could handle the raw materia). The northwest, with high priced land and labor and great distance from mar kets, is therefore obliged to convert the surplus apples into by-products in order to make a market for the trade and to insure the grower against great loss. In this way only can the success of the apple industry he assured. Because of the fact that the "C" grade apples have been marketed suc cessfully in past years of light yield has held many of the growers to be lieve that it would always be possible to market these apples in boxed form without seriously interfering with the sale of fancy and extra fancy apples. Tbis, unfortunately, is not the case, and it is only rarely that the C grade apples can be marketed in the form of box apples, with profit to the grower and without seriously competing with the fancy and extra fancy grades. The marketing of a perishable prod uct like boxed apples, is s trade in it self and should be left in the hands of men trained in that business, who by their training and by careful watching of actual conditions of the markets of the world from day to day are the only ones'who can safely say what grades of apples and what grades of apples and what varieties Bhould go into the vari ous marketing centers. For the grow ers or inexperienced shippers to at tempt to handle these problems it will only result in disaster for themselves and to all others concerned. When the business is so organized that a limited number of reliable mar keting agencies are handling the fresh apples and other fruits, all the surplus fruits are sent to the by-products plant which are working under a safe busi ness organization and the growers are raising their fruits with due regard to turning out the proper varieties of fruit, with duo regard to economy and with loyalty to their selling organiza tions of both fresh fruits and by-products, then will the fruit industry of the northwest be on a safe, permanent ba sis and not otherwise.

How the Electric Current Moves It Along the Rails. ITS MOTORS AND MECHANISM. An Explanation of Their Workings and tho Method by Which the Mysterious Foroo Is Conducted From tho Over head Wire to the Running Gear. Of all the thousands and thousands of people who dally ride upon the elec tric street cars of our cities and a good many millions more than twelve billions of individuals paid a fare on the trolley lines of our country last year only few understand what hauls the cars along the rails. It is easy enough to understand tbe steam railroad system. A steam en gine, mounted on wheels, Is bitched to a number of cars. The steam engine part of the locomotive is coupled to the driving wheels, and when the engine is started tbe wheels turn and the train moves. But the electric street car Is quite another thing and vastly harder to un derstand. In a vague way the vast ma jority of people who ride know tbat It Is driven by electric power which Is carded In some mysterious manner on the trolley wires. Let us take a car apart, figuratively speaking, and see just how It is made. Beneath the ordinary street car you will find two to four powerful electric motors geared directly to tbe axles of the car trucks. These motors differ somewhat from ordinary electric,, motors In thetr de sign, but they operate exactly the same as the electric motor which drives an office fan, tho sewing machine or tbe vacuum cleaner in the home. These motors are very powerful and are al most completely hidden from sight in the trucks beneath the car. The electrical energy for driving the street cars Is sent out over the trolley wires. The electrical power Is generat ed, or made, In the central power house, or it may be transmitted from some nearby water power development where the energy of the falling water Is changed into electricity. The trol ley wire Is suspended above the street from poles and guy wires. The electricity is kept on the trolley wires by suitable Insulators of glass, porcelain or composition, over which the current cannot travel. The elec trical current flows easily and smooth ly along the trolley wire, like water in a pipe, although it cannot be seen. Wherever the copper wire extends the electrical power flows and Is al ways ready to drive a trolley car. Knch trolley car Is provided with a trolley wheel at the end of the pole which runs along the under side of the trolley wire. The electrical power from the trolley wire flows through this wheel and down the trolley pole to a henvlly Insulated cable concealed In the top of the car. This cable carries the electricity to the "controller" In front of the car. The controller Is the Iron box which stands lu front of the motorman. At the top of this box are two levers. The smaller lever la used to turn on and off the current supply and the larger Is used to control the current, or to "feed" It to the motors beneath the car in any quantity as desired. When the motorman turns tbe con troller handle a few notches a certain amount of electricity Is allowed to flow from the overhead trolley wire down tbe pole, through tbe cable and control box to the motors beneath the" car. The current starts the motors, which In turn cause the wheels of tbe car to revolve, tbe car starts and the motorman turns the controller handle further, feeding the motors) more cur rent, and the car picks op to Its regu lar running speed. The electrical current flows to the car over the trolley wire. After It flows through the car, via the cables, through the controller, the resistance and the motors, it flows out of the car through the iron wheels and back to tbe power bouse along the steel rails, thus completing the circuit Electrical News.
