l e b TEXAS CITY HAS PLANS FOR CIVIC. DEVELOPMENT. Improvements to Consist of Street, Sewer and Water Main Extensions. The city plan committee of the San Antonio (Tex.) chamber of commerce is having prepared at an expenditure of several thousand dollars a comprehen- sive and modern city plan, which will care for the future development and growth of the city for a period of fifty years after it has been comWeted and the first steps taken to put it into ef- fect. This plan is being made by a force of experts under the direction of Myron H. West, city planner and builder, of Chicago. In order to put this plan in operation the voters of San Antonio will be call- ed upon to vite a bond issue of $5,000,- 000, which will provide for street, sew- er and water main extensions, along with other civic improvements. The passage of the bond issue is assured, and several contracting firms from the north and east have already-opened of- fices. there, with a view of bidding on |them in.” and securing contracts for the improve- ment work. In the way of street improvements | oampaign to a good sized audience in for the present the work will consist of repaving the principal streets in the business section of the gty and the main arteries of traffic Ur thorough- fares leading to the suburban residence |excuse.” districts. It is expected that $2,000,000 will be spent in this work. A bond issue of §g).000. with an ad- ditional $90.000 appropriated by the city, has already been passed for wid- ening Commerce street, one of the dress in a report like this. principal business streets, for a dis- |eywell said in part. tance of several blocks, from.

SCHOOL GARDENS INCREASE. some hypocrites in the church, and Growing Interest In Movement Largely Due to Women’s Clubs, School gardens continue to recelve a constantly increasing share of pub- lic attention. From very many parts of the country reports bear witness to this widéspread interest. There can be mo question that the move- ment should be encouraged by all who are in any way concerned in practical horticulture. If the younger genera- tion has implanted in it an intelligent interest in garden routine work, to- gether with an intelligent acquaintance with growing plants, there will. not be the need of so much missionary work in garden art in the future as there has been in the past. It is to the women’s clubs very large- 1y that the present movement owes its | vitality, says the Los Angeles Times. In the interest which the members of these organizations evince in the young and the beautiful they have taken hold of an issue which would most properly come within the field of the action of the horticultural societies. Only very few of these latter have realized their opportunity. Local horticultural so- | cieties must do something more than hold stated meetings whereat formal addresses are presented, usually on a topic worn threadbare by long service and at which but a small percentage of the membership is present. How many such socleties, started in enthusiasm, peter out after a few years without.| any apparent reason? The members ) themselves wonder what is the matter with their society. { The matter im that they are doing | nothing really, creating nothing, mak- |: ing no progress. In order to be alive the society must be aggressive. It must carry its tenets and principles beyond the confines of the meeting room and attack problems of public wedl. The school garden movement was started some eighty years ago. but its most rapid development has been within the last decade. Work in this country is not by any means suf- ficiently widespread. With a round 100,000 school gardens in Europe, is it any wounder that garden art has reached a wider distribution across the ocean than it has with us? Communities Should Pull Together. A single snowflake falling upon the broad landscape ultimately melts and leaves no visible trace of its abortive effort, but when joined to millions of others the earth is soon covered with a white mantle, says the Farm Jour- nal. A single brook wending its way through the valley is weak and impo- tent, but joined with others it forms a great stream whose flow speeds the wheels of industry. A single man in a community can do little by himself, but by joining men of kindred aims the union can do much for the moral, mental and physical betterment of the community. Neighborhoods cease to grow when the people cease to labor in union and work at cross purposes. Therefore it is essential for the com- munity’s advancement that all pull to- gether. There should be no room in any neighborhood for pullbacks. : Tree Is Not a Nuisance. ' A tree that has been standing for many years in a highway without be- Ing considered an impediment to travel cannot be considered a nuisance if found to extend a few inches into the street when curbs are to be put in, but the curb must be arranged to carry water, etc., past the tree so that it will not interfere with the improvement of the street in a workmanlike manner, according to.a recent decision by & Maryland court.

Another excuse is “I am afraid I can’t hold out.” Well you have got to live anyway. Can you live better without God’s help than with it? How long have you got to hold out? How long have you got to live? You may be before God tomorrow morning.
