er, RAGE EIGHT Dear old Opie Read, dean of the wewspapéer fraternity, widely .known writer, author and evei‘;cthm}(else ghat surrounds himself with ‘warm friends throughout the country and mrge cities, appeared at the chautau- qua last night and was greeted by a 'acked house, despite a downpour of At times when the fall was wain. Reavy, he would sit in a convenient ehair and wait for it to ease up. His wsual expression was “There she goes again,” and the audience sat at ease. Read just talks to his hearers. He s one of the most picturesque figures before the public, a wholesome, whole hearted post graduate of the newspaper University of Hard Knocks when the “‘game’ was vastly different from modern newspaper work. Then it was that the *big time’ was at fever heat and a man wad to know everything from soup to nuts. He gained fame as a writer and if there’s any one of prominence in the country he knows ’em and they know him, and that goes for Rosts of friends who are unknown. For they all look alike to him. Recalls Incident In his talk to the audience he nar- rated some incidents. He told of the meeting of monkeys in Africa, who neld a political gathering. There were republican monkeys, democratic monkeys and other party representa-; tives. Finally it got around to a monkey to say something and he said he didn’t belong to any of the parties mentioned that he belonged 2o one, the membership fee being 16 cocoanuts. And the audience be-| same convulsed. He also gave some of his expen- ences, saying that during his news- paper career he had taken the last statement in interviews of 64 per- sons convicted of various crimes and 3entenced to death. What Mother Said. Once he was in a cyclone and said while attempting to escape injury he felt something on his back (He is of broad stature) and upon feeling what it was discovered a little girl wanging tight to him. He asked if ghe wasn't scared and the child re- plied “No. My mother told me not to be scared.” “l wish her mother had told me ihat,” commented Mr. Read. In the old days, editors had many «haracteristics. One was partaking of what is now getting obsolete. It ¥ell to Mr. Read to make a horseback trip to some far remote place and en route came upon a man beside a pool and he had a. iug. The rider asked the stranger for a drink from the pend but the man refused. He in- sisted upon the horsebacked passerby iaking a drink from the jug, which he did. When he recovered from the effects the horce was gone. He ar- tived at the office and reported to Wis editor. “Went after n story and gone, three days. eh?” commented the “boss.” ‘“Well. I've done the same thing and didn't get back for three weeks.” The Human Side. Oune of the most interesting of his personal recolleections was when he was sent viver town during a fierce epidemic’ and when he arrived discovered that all the prominent people of town had left for the mountains. ducted by a woman known as ‘“The ©at” and her inmates as the tens.”” When they learned of con- ditions the outfit turned out and worked like Trojars to extend relief 2o the stricken. When the epidemic was over and the people returned they learned what had heen done and sentiment changed. When she died a momument was erected to her giemory.

CLAM (By United Press.) Londen, (By Mail.)—London, the most crowded city in the world—it has a population estimated close to ten million, including the.vast con- tinual stream of visitors——is “taced with the serious problem of hew to relieve the hardships of its ‘working and shopping public resulting from traffic congestion. The world’s biggest city thought it had solved the problem years ago when an American built them a sub- way, but now this is falling behind traffic. Not that the subway has grown less efficient It hasn’t but only so many trains can be run and it is impossible to run enough to handle the traffic which overflows and crowds on to the omnibuses and |the street cars. The omnibuses fail to meet the situation and even the expected addition of a thousand-more omnibuses shortly won’t settle the problem. They will only serve to block other traffic. It has been suggested that an ele- vated railroad be built such as Chi- cago, New York and Boston have. In the meantime millions of Londoners daily struggle, crowd and rush for a strap or seat on any kind of a pub- lic conveyance. 1 T | Daily Thought.
