Items Gathered In From Far and Near

No one can have failed to notice the work clone by Street Commissioner Genn In cleaning the alleys of Richmond. We are told, reliably, that this is the first time this has been regularly done since Mr. Genn did It when he was in office hefore. John MacVcar in commenting on Richmond as the cleanest and best kept city that he had seen for many a day, said: "The test of the cleanliness of a city is the alleys." But Genn has his troubles. ; "I have spent hundreds of dollars in cleaning alleys. Most people appreciate what I am trying to do. Others seem to have the idea that after I have ordered an alley cleaned and it has Just been put in good shape is the time to get busy with their barns and other trash. The other day just after my men had gone though an alley and made it as clean as a city street, one man cleaned out his hay mow and put two wagon loads of dirt and chaff out of the window. A slight wind was blowing and in half and hour the whole place looked as if it had never been cleaned." "That is enough to discourage any man." It is to be believed that a man who takes pride in his work ought to be encourgaed. This -talk about having good city management is largely a matter of Interest, appreciation and helpfulness on the part of the citizens themselves.

OF BEING DECENT Last night the Commercial Club did a service to Richmond and to . itself. The dinner given to the visitors was creditable. True, it might be considered more tactful to wait till the guests of the city are out of town. But right now it needs to be said that the gain in self respect is such as to make every man proud of his town. City pride is a word to be laughed at to scorn, unless the real thing is evident. For those of out of town guests who may read this, we are frank enough to say that it has not always been so. Time was when one man might have an inspiration and by dint of brow beating others and the use of Influence pull off a thing for appearance sake. In as much as Richmond does anything at all at the present time it is due simply to that thing called "getting together." Richmond has two commercial organizations there i3 no rivalry be- , tween them. And that is because both of them are really working for Richmond and many men are members of both clubs. A man from Bedford, Indiana, who was one of the guests of the city asked last night in private conversation how it was possible for men to work together in Richmond. In his town which has had an exceptional growth the whole development has been simply, and purely because of the eceptional opportunities and in spite of the attacks of its citizens on good things. The man from Bedford was told that Richmond has just emerged from that state of mind the same town, tb,e same men, the same conditions are here at work together. It is nothing against any town to have passed through such a stage. It seems natural. The great thing is to pass through it. A western town which has enjoyed a phenomenal growth in discussing this matter of being hospitable says: "Times have changed, however." "To may that hospitality pays, is debasing one of the finest attributes to a sordid level. The men of are enjoying the hospitality extended to others quite as much as the visitors. A little homily on the 'Joy of being Decent and Hospitable might not be amiss ' " Substitute Richmond for Blank. It's the state of mind that makes people happy, healthy and wealthy. It is' also summer time, don't let that prey on your mind.

dren to handle these powerful machines. It is not until adequate punishment Is measured out to careless automobile drivers ; that their disregard for public rights will be checked. At the same time it is worth while to remember that not all the many accidents by any means occur when young drivers are in charge. There is the Anderson case for example, reported yesterday, where a business man of mature years turned to look back while driving his machine and at that moment ran down

Money and Happiness.

Fro mthe Pittsburg Press.

It is not the mere accumulation of

money that hurts frien. It is the sacrifices they are willing to make for

money. It Is the desire to abandon themselves to unwholesome self-gratification; to become walking appetites; to lose all obligation for self-restraint, all obligation for laborious days and temperate nights this is what persuades philosophers that the root of evil is money. For without labor and self-"mortlfication," and the acquirement of that strength, both moral and

physical, which comes to him who has learned to say "No" to his own appetites and his own desires, there is no true greatness, no advance to those

higher levels of character and spiritual discernment which mark men off from one another as they mark men

off from the beasts of the field. '

FrUGIilEMNU CHILDREN. The other day t Washington.

a boy was uilsslu;;. Meu went everywhere In an organ ized search for the child. The river was dragged. The parents were in so agony of fear and anxiety. About i o'clock the boy. a six-year oid. returned to bis home and asked his mother if "the census man bad gone." Some one bad told the little fellow that the census mau "took bad boys away with him." The boy bad done something wrong, some childish thing that was on bis conscience, and when he saw the census man knock at the front door be ran out of the back door and bid himself for the day. To frighten a child thus is a wicked thing to do and exceedingly harmful. And yet this wickedness is common, even with parents. Oftentimes you

will hear a mother threaten her offspring with some bogy man. "The black man will get you if you go out ou the street!" suouts an unthinking mother to her baby. Fearful calamities are prophesied to children contiugent upon their disobedience of some trivial rule of the household. Which is a great mistake. Some day the child will ttud out the deception and lose confidence in its mother's warnings, which is no slight injustice. And the immediate effect, as in the case of this Pennsylvania boy. is to make the child miserable with apprehension. To put fear Into the heart of an innocent babe is to depress its little heart, tiztaieu its little nerves and

stunt its normal feelings. it is more tbau stupid thus to treat a little one. It is almost criminal. Courage is man's chief asset. Fear is his deadliest foe. More and more as conditions grow harder, competition fiercer and the strife of life more strenuous does the man or woman of today need courage, confidence and self control. To hamper the euergies and paralyze the nerves of the men and women of tomorrow by the introduction of fear is to prevent them from doing what they ought to do or being what they ought to be. It is a crime not only against the individual, but against the race. Civilization today would be advanced a thousand years but for the superstition and .dread caused by foolish fears. And superstition still lurks in the corners of man's brain because of the ghost stories of ages past. Do not, thoughtlessly harm your child by stories or threats of evil. Teach him that iu all the universe of God there Is nothing for him to fearexcept himself.

Mr. Hill's Unhappy Metaphor. From the New York Times. Mr. J. J. Hill' warnings of possible financial and commercial depression are worth heeding. But we wish he would not advise us to lay up for a "rainy day." A drought would suit his metaphorical purpose just as well.. The mention of rain just now is exceptionally irritating. We fancy It tends to lessen the weight of Mr. Hill's otherwise reasonable If somewhat pessimistic argument. He will be understood just as well next time It he says "drought" The word has a good sound. A drought, nowadays, would
