In labor | circles I am considered a conservative by certain elements. “I am one of the five councilmen who voted for the trans- fer of the traction line to the city, after the people of the city, by a vote of four to one, instructed me to so’ vote, was no question in my mind at that time but that it was a high price, but it was proportionate with war prices then prevailing. “At the present time the lines are paying their way. By June 1 they will have paid off the warrants that will have accrued against the fund. Based on conservative figures, the earnings will pay operating expenses, maintenance, in- terest and redemption of bonds, with a nice margin for | depreciation. | “I believe the lines would return a better revenue on a five-cent fare with the elimination of transfers, with the exception of stub lines that do not pass thru the business and industrial districts, and a more careful checking of the half fares for school children, which privilege is now being abused. “In case the lines should fail to pay their way, I will at no time agree to appropriate from the general fund for op- eration, maintenance, interest or redemption of bonds, “If a revision of the contract can be had in court and a better bargain can be made, it will be perfectly satisfactory to me, but at all times I am going to protect the credit of Seattle. “Our credit at this time is considerably impaired by false reports. Were this not the case we could sell enough bonds) to continue the development of the Skagit project, the com- pletion of which would save us $800,000 a year in electric energy.” Thought in Action ‘OW many times have you faced the fact that some one else has made use of “your” idea? 1n other words, how many times has the other fellow “beat you to it?” If you are an advertising man it is probable that you have found in the newspapers an idea fully worked out which you had been turning over in your mind. If you are a merchant or a manufacturer it is more than likely that you have suddenly discévered that some one has already put into operation a merchandising idea which you have evolved and meant to use soon. If you are a novelist, an essayist, a painter, a composer, or a sculptor it is probable that some time in your career } you have been chagrined to discover that sqmne one else has had an idea which you thought was your exclusive prop- erty and has got that idea before the public while you were still thinking about it. The history of human thought is full of instances where two or more men were working on the same idea and where the one who reaped the rewards was the one, who brought his idea first before the public. The patent office and the international copyright, expe- cially former, are in existence because ideas are not exclusive property occurring to only one man. Two, five, a dozen men unknown to each other and separated by thousands of miles may be working on the same new idea. The successful man is the man who first translates his thought into action. He is the man who when an idea comes to him sets himself immediately to the-task of realizing his idea as something other than a mental fancy. An idea which is nét in action, which is not materialized, is nothing more than a mental toy. It is useful, worthy, and profitable only when it is a vis- ible fact. “A Style of Her Own” “CHE’S a woman who has a style of her own.” It is a statement sometimes meant as a compliment; more often as an excuse. “A style of her own.” But just what is style? We learned from our copybooks at school that style in literature is “the expression of personality thru highly de- veloped technique.” Well and good for literature—and in some cases for clothes! But the former nobody need read unless he wants to, while the latter all the world must look at unless we walk the streets with closed eyes. It is only the ultra-clever woman, Sarah Bernhardt, for instance, who can successfully develop a style of her own. Mary of England also sets her own styles. But these two bes are queens, one of the stage, the other of an em- pire. True style in dress is never freakish, never a pose, and above all, never accentuates personality. The wise woman fights shy of a style of her own. She knows it is a delusion and a snare. So she selects what other people are wearing, keeping in mind two things: THAT gentlehood is never conspicuous. THE than his pocketbook.
