Don Mellett, the crusading Canton editor, knew of the existence of the jungle and exposed it. He was murdered for his pains. Kyle Ross fought the same fight, and narrowly escaped the same fate. And the rest of us, reading about it in our newspapers, yawn and remark, “Oh—another ?” and then forget about it. The jungle is there—beneath our feet, so to speak— and our present method of operation isn’t doing any- thing to tame it. 1 It is about as pressing a problem, in a way, as any we have. There is, somewhere, a cause for it; a cause that is intertwined solidly with our skyscrapers and factor- ies and automobiles and stock exchanges and the other manifestations of our advance from barbarism. We have no more important task than to find out what that cause is, and remove it. The lone-handed Don Melletts and Kyle Rosses must not be left to crusade alone.

There are times when the removal of a.tree or a whole row of trees is necessary to eliminate a dangerous curve or to widen a highway. Under the old order of things such trees were removed and forgotten. Today trees thus removed are either replanted or replaced by new trees in many states. No longer do the linemen of telephone, telegraph and electric power companies recklessly hack and saw at highway shade trees because their limbs interfere with the wires. Unscientific trimming by linemen killed countless valuable trees before the government began holding the owners of the wires accountable for the trees damaged by their employes. The motor highway of the future will be a broad thor- oughfare bordered on both sides by shade-giving trees and with all communication and power transmission lines running free of the trees and concealed by the trees from the roadway. To minimize danger to traf- fic from storm-broken trees the trees on this highway of tomorrow will be placed at a safe distance from the (Official City, State and County Newspaper) LOVE'S MAGIC SYMBOL ‘A New York columnist recently made what he thinks quite a discovery. Busy Times Square, heart of the theatrical district, he says, is full of “petters.” Couples stroll up and down the street, their arms locked about one another, indulging in semi-furtive caresses in the most public place imaginable, and no one pays any attention to them. But let a honeymoon couple stroll down the same street, be they never so circumspect and proper, and every idler and passerby on the sidewalk will pay them the tribute of a second glance. “Let two people who are honestly in love try to walk through the theater crowd—fingers barely touching— and all New York knows,” remarks the columnist. He thinks this is surprising. But, after all, why should it be? Petting is rather common, even unexciting, whether * | in New York or in Bellefontaine, 0.

Now comes Dr. Harald Holck, instructor in physiology at the University of Chicago, to disprove it. He experimented on himself for a year and a half. And he reports that the extra chewing involved in the Process wearied his jaws so much that he lost his appe- tite. This, in turn, involved loss of weight, and as a re- sult his muscular energy was impaired. Oddly enough, he found that it helped him to solve intricate chess prdblems; but he doubts if that compensates for physical deterioration. Fletcherizing is a lost fad, anyway. But Dr. Holck’s experiment is interesting, nevertheless. mendous and glorious that no care can hide it. A young man suddenly discovers that all the vague dreams and glittering legends of his boyhood are true; a girl finds that a mailed knight with a silver shield—clad, it may be, in a plain suit of blue serge—has ridden up to her and led the way to the oldest, most entrancing roadway in all the world. Is it any wonder that two such people cannot keep their discovery to themselves, no matter how hard they try? They might succeed perhaps, at that, if the rest of us had not been tipped off. But no matter how unlucky or disillusioned we may be, all of us, once in our lives, get a vague glimpse of the glory that lies beyond the stars. Something—perhaps nothing more than a brief hour by a moonlit beach, or a fleeting moment in a city park—comes for a short time to tell us that our dreams have not played us false. We are capable of infinite happiness, even if we do not often actually get it. So we are in on the secret. We know that a boy and girl, untaught and unaided, can build for themselves a heaver. as splendid as the one that John saw on Patmos. We know, too, unfortunately, that this heaven of theirs probably will not last; but while it lasts it is very real, and its momentary reality assures us that we are some- thing more than animated clay. That is why true lovers can never hope to go unob- served. The eyes of those who have seen the power and the glory of the world always betray them. They re- main fixed on distant visions; and the rest of us must, in spite of ourselves, pay our tribute of a second glance in passing. BY RODNEY DUTCHER (NEA Service writer) Washington, Sept. 20.—With Pres- ident Coolidge’s return from vaca- tion, Washington had two import- ant unofficial spokesmen, The president found that Herbert Hoo- ver, who had promised to carry out the Coolidge policies if elected, al- ready had imitated his policy of seeing the newspapermen on Tues- days and Fridays, in person but in- cognito. If Hoover is elected he presum- ably will continue the custom for another four or eight years, though possibly with fewer restrictions than Coolidge has pyramided on his press conferences. The famous White House Spokesman system, of coufse, protects the president by “allowing him to talk to the correspondents without being quoted. . jam around in a semicircle he gazes at the beltlines of those nearest. They say Hoover never knows what to do with his hands or his eyes, Hig hands, never still, grip the sides of the seat of the chair, opening, shut- ting and twisting as if he were nerv- ous. When he finally arises he stands with arms akimbo, as if about to begin his setting-up exercises, When a question is asked he mo- mentarily raises his eyes to the questioner, i Coolidge, in the presidency, never seemed to be fully at euse, but Hoo- ver is likely to appear even less so to the casual observer. Listening to Hoover talk, however, one begins to suspect that there is considerable nervous energy in him which is part- ly responsibls for the appearance. At any rate, he talks freely and easily, with an economy of words but with directness and assurance. His an- swers are returned quickly and he never appears at a loss for one, even though it be a plain “No.” The old-fashioned girl also did most of her kissing after getting married, but she kissed only one man, The principal difference between the Hoover spokesman’s conferences and the Coolidge spokesman’s con- ferences, noted by your correspond- ent, are: Incidentally, his hair, along the ,1—You can spring verbal ques-|top and around the edges, iq dis- tions on Hoover, whereas those sub-| tinctly gray. mitted to the president must be writ- igpeediuen ten and submitted in advance.

The time is past when one can keep his one - hand from knowing what the other hand is doing. A change of seasons is at hand. What will the new season be? Newspaper advertising foretells that it will be the season of radio, phonographs, new household furnishings, books and wearing apparel appropriate to the period of transition between the two extremes of ~. climate. Late summer and early autumn turn the American _.mind to thoughts of long winter evenings and home. “The automobile has emptied the front porches of ».

The head and hat go in first and, with luck, the rest of the body may follow. But the job- less actor wants his first appearance to suggest swank. And so he adorns his head, even when his stomach may be empty.
