The Flying Squadron, a branch of the Chamber of Commerce, made a good start toward bringing about a spirit of friendly co-operation of Tacoma and Seattle when it went a delegation to the former city Wednesday. But, bear in mind, only a good start. There is more to do. Rankling ill-will and mistrust that has developed thru the years in a whole community cannot be elimi nated overnight. No matter if some of the supposed wrongs were fanciful, no mat- ter if the occasion for all the suspicion is past, yet prejudices are not to be uprooted wholesale in a hurry. The Star believes the Seattle business men were entirely sincere when they told Tacomans they wanted to work together as one community, Tacomans who heard them believed what was said. But, after all, it was only a comparatively small group of business men who were present. Other Tacoma groups should similarly be reached. If Seattle Kiwanis club members can likewise carry the message to their Tacoma brothers; if Seattle Ro- tarians will do their part in meeting Tacoma Rotarians half way, and so on down the line, it will help greatly. The Star believes the And out of the fog (a fog that {is rising and disappearing) emerges sooner or later the old sore point of The Mountain’s name. Tacomans call the mountain “Tacoma” and always will. They feel that “Tacoma” was its Indian name and was originally the mame the white men used. They feel that Seattle, then a rough, ambitious village, brought about the official bestowal of “Rainier,” purely out of civic jealousy. They feel that “Rainier,” furthermore, is inappropriate because it honors a British admiral who fought against this country. Why not do the magnanimous thing? Why not throw all Scattle’s influence at ‘ Washington into the scale to help Facoma achieve this ancient sentimental aim? Se- attle people do not feel strongly pro-“Rainier”; Tacomans do feel deeply pro-“Tacoma.” By making it “Tacoma” officially, we would be doing both the biggest single thing within our power to make all of Tacoma happy, and also be eliminating a confusion ever the mountain’s name that is hampering, to a serious extent, the state's tourist eT sith f a i i it i i iit Mi i i ha + ° hy Hue i i; 7 ef clacehits Ges i TH the fn The woods ought to be beautiful; posses are them. always scouring Whena into. they can earn dividends on at fair rates, and nof a cent more, and that when times are bad they must take » streak of lean with the rest of us, it would be bet ter for everybody. 3 z gg rs ta i j { Fl ‘H | ! i | 7 i s g i 8 Fs nity fhly ili si BY HELEN EMMA MARING A moonlight sky of opal hue; The leaves, a golden wealth— nd with a glass of sjarkling dew I drink your health, A Garkling sea of binest éreama, ‘The full-moon's wake aglow With silver lights and pearly geams— I love you sa ‘The ¢awn will come with sky sflama, And jewels in her hair; * Til speak the music of your mame To empty air, But when September's scented breath Has warmed the velvet black, Ané night has called her stars from death, You will come back. proverb: aaaaac; Answer to yesterday's: A bed.

The City Named San Francisco EMitor The Star: Once upon a time a city by the name of San Francisco had one mar- ket center, a street which performed the duties of a funnel by gathering in from open fields hundreds of thousands of human beings and passing them through a narrow street known as Market street to the ferry and union station, to be spread out again over the whole world. The people had been educated to go to Market street “when they wanted to buy a large doublejointed, ivory. bound California peanut or ™ pretty littie red shrimp. The congestion wan so great on Market atreet that many a man who had the reputation of being full to the overflow with truthfulness and veracity, was caught In the jam, and held fn ~~ tivity with his bag of peanuts a little red shrimp until two o'clock the following summer, destroying his Hberty to return home to wifey, who sat with tearful eyes and lights burning brightly waiting for the big waphead to return with a bag of nuts and the [ttle red shrimp, and ex- plain the cause of delay, which often ended tn a divorce suit. The Examiner, Call anf Chronicle give freely space tn their papers to writers on congestion on Market street, and advertised widely for en- gineering brains to solve the con- gestion problem. Fingineers worked diligently both day and night, making blue prints for doubledecking Mar. ket street and tunnelling the street, untfl they had completed the master work of their lives, and were moved before the Iimelight of the people of Frisco and worshipped as masters of the day.
