Notary “ublic tn Bicycle Craze Again? © is a revival of the bicycle craze in England. All the bley- dle factories are working overtime to keep up orders. It’s a happy revival of a sensible craze, Wow that it might ex- tend to our own country! A good strong revival of the bieyel would revolutionize the Iives of millions of people. It would put oxygen into their lungs, color in thelr cheeks and new life in their whole bodies. It would take hundreds of thousands of young men from the city streets on Sundays out into the fresh air of the green country. It would take hundreds of thousands of young women from the narrow confines of home and from the silly ro of social gayetios out where the world is big and bright and beautiful A bicycle craze would make millions of city people acquainted with the pregnant fact that their own block is not tho whole world, and that bevond thelr street are other streets and lanes and fields and groves, and that beyond their little 1 set is a boundless do- main of happy humankind It is impossible to estimate the good the bieyele once did for the people of our cities, Many a man and woman owe their fine health today to the fact that they once were victims of the “crane.” The lives of many more were made fuller of sunshine by it. Not only the lungs, but the hearts of unnuinbered men and women were opened to inha lations that were fresher, cleaner, purer. A revival of the craze would bring these inestimable blessings to millions now growing into manhood and womanhood. It would give broader view, better health and brighter spirit to the manhood and womanhood of the future. Get a wheel and pedal out Into the green country. start a craze, but it will stir up your blood and spirit. Tt may not The Law and the Man Three weeks after the death of Captain F, Norton Goddard the policy shops of New York are wide open. For three years Captain Geddard, as president of the Anti-Pollcy league, had kept them closed with @ band of steel. Policy is in violation of the laws of New York. But for years it flourished undisturbed by the police. Al Adams was its king and it made him a millionaire. Powerful Influences were in favor of it. “You can't suppress policy.” said the limp authorities. Then Captain Godard, private citixen, was elected president of the Anti-Policy league. He knew, as did the police and the dis- trict attorney, that policy playing was forbidden by law, But he knew also, as they did not, that law is more powerfel than any organ- faation of law-breakers if it is only rightly asserted. Captain Goddard proceeded to enforce the law that the people of New York had made for their protection and which the authoritie: had neglected. The complacent saying “you can’t suppress policy” he turned into the vigorous declaration “you can't suppress the law.” He drove poticy playing out of New York. He forced the men who had conducted these shops publicly, serene in the assurance that the police would not interfere, to take hidden back rooma He sent some of them to jail, drove the rest out of business, smashed the policy system and sent its king, Al Adams, to the penitentiary. For three years the law was stronger than policy. It was because there was a MAN behind the law. THE MAN was the thing. Law te but 4 helpless, innocuous expression of public will, until @ MAN turns it Into an irresistible weapon, ‘The mere existence of law does not serve its purpose. It ts like af ax rusting away at the root of a tree, waiting for a MAN to come forward and wield it. There are many thousands of laws in this country, There many thousands of public officials, salaried and sworn to enforce the laws. But, somehow, THE MAN seems scarce. Captain Goddard died three weeks ago, and today the policy shops of New York are wide open, with none to hinder or make them afraid. Was there only one MAN in all New York? Mirabile Dictu! are John B. Larkin, city comptroller of Pittsburg, bas discovered a new way to run the finances of a city. It is the way of honesty. Pittsburg is to build a mammoth filter plant to cost $5,000,000, ‘The usual method of paying for the improvement by Issuing bonds was adopted by the city council. And the usual method is to issue bonds to the fall amount of the improvement, giving favored bank- ers and politicians a chance to make a little money on the side. Strangely enough Comptroller Larkin took the position that it ‘was not worth while to sell more bonds than were needed the first year. It would require three years to build the plant. If the entire amount was raised by the sale of the bonds a large part of tho money would lie idle in the pet banks of the administration and the people would be paying big interest. ‘The taxpayers sald amen to Larkin's suggestion and, although there was much grumbling of the politicians, he had his way, But that {s not all. ‘The first issue of bonds was to be $2,000,000, ee 206 = wtudents— ROSQOY FA studente—at thelr work—preparing for the battle of life— down to the Collins EAN BUSINESS COLLEGE the second $2 If you want to see itexemplified—it you vant to see upwards Bide.

Mo also announced that the city would take a Iike proportion of the other issues in the same way Who ever heard of tho like? Did any city ever do such @ thing as to buy its own bonds?
