\\ c^uiiigton—a Vision Plotted With Compasses and Never Fully Realized By CUNTON W. GILBERT, in Current History. ¥ET I think of Washington always gs something apart from the rest of America, something factitious as it was in the beginning, a vision plotted out with a pair of oompasses and never fully real- i ized. The taste for life here will always be caviar to the general. Those who love it are men like Senator Borah, who could hardly exist elsewhere than in the United States senate; or, to go over to the other < sex, women like Mrs. Alice Longworth and Mrs. Borden Harriman, to whom it is breath in the-nostrils. Sometimes the spirit of Washington is vulgar, as it was in the worst days before the investigations cleared the atmosphere. Sometimes it is brilliant, as in the great days of Roosevelt. Sometimes it is lofty, as in the days of Wilson. It takes its tone from the administration. But beneath is something fine and exuberant, the consciousness of a great destiny. » Washington has never been, even for a moment, the literary capital of America. It bows to Chicago, to Indiana, to New York, or where you will. There is too much fiction about Washington itself for fiction tc , thrive here. • . . The most solid part of the intellectual life of Washington is scientific. The experts of the Department of Agriculture, the Federal Reserve board, the Department of Commerce, the Smithsonian institution and of the hospitals for the insane—in these last the best work in psychoanalysis in America is done—number among their members some of the great ; scientists in the land. Os them I speak with diffidence, being no scientist myself. And they are rather submerged, as experts usually are. In that sometimes brilliant circle which we call Washington they cut little figure, for the government is not a generous employer. Agency That Promises Most for Alaska Is the Public Highway System ♦ By GEORGE A. PARKS, Governor of Alaska. The agency that promises most for Alaska is the public highway. Nearly $9,000,000 has been spent in roads there to date. Every extension vastly widens the area of possible settlement and development. The great Alaskan problem is primarily one of transportation. ' The government raliroad has helped wonderfully, but it must be supplemented by wagou roads and trails. A first-class road to Mount McKinley is now being built Hotels are to be set up in the national park there. The great mountain is now accessible only by traveling afoot or by pack train through difficult country. When tourists are’able to reach the mountain by automobile in a day and can get comfortable living quarters in the park, Alaska’s most picturesque attraction will draw many people. The tourist business already is quite important Passenger trains on the government railroad are operated with a view to giving the best possible service to visitors. That is why trains running from the coast to Fairbanks stop overnight midway of the journey which could be made in a single twenty-four-hour period. Mechanical Devices Are Fast Doing Away With the Need for Muscles By PROF. CONRAD THORALDSEN, Northwestern University. We are going towards that place we will never arrive at—Utopia. What we are doing is gradually fitting the individual to the environments and we are progressing under evolution. Meantime man's brain is growing and the constant growth will demand a much larger skull, with a bulging brow. The man oi the future j will probably have to wear glasses. Some of the physical assets will be lost with die increase in brain power. We are getting near-sighted and losing our sense of smell. Society consequently will be different in the generations to come. What the future man is like may depend somewhat on the. fads and fancies of the present There is no doubt the children of coming generations will be healthier, because the girls of today are free from corsets. Mechanical devices are fast doing away with the need for muscles and the lack of use will cause the muscles to degenerate. Except for hardiness and the power to withstand disease, physical bulk means nothing nowadays. Some Little Idea of the Inefficiency of Man’s Ear, Eye and Nose By PROF. FRITZ HABER, German Chemist We are too accustomed to relying upon our senses. We are apt to think that the ear is most delicate. It is nothing of the kind; it cannot even hear notes that delight the heart of a dog. and if one pictures life with the brain of a man, the ear of an antelope, and microscopic eyes, together with the nose of a dog, some little idea of the inefficiency of those few senses which we slightly understand can be obtained. To live in any town would be impossible: the smells of Bond Street instead of pleasing the dog would tell us of rotting animal matter and alarm us to distraction. We could never sit down upon a beautiful piece of grass without listening to the worms and imagining ourselves with them. We could not bear to drink water for the peculiar bodies we should see in it The wind in the trees, the people walking down our street or into our rabbit warrens of fiats would sound like a battle from afar. We should realize every time we undress that we are little removed from the animal, and that before many centuries have passed we shall be held in almost universal contempt Railroads to Operate Blisses on Roads Parallel to Their Steam Lines By F. J. LISMAN, New York Transportation Expert Ninety per cent of the stock of western roads is owned in the East and the active directors live mostly in the East They are out of touch with changing conditions in th- territory adjacent to their railroads. The railroad situation in the Northwest is particularly acute. The remedies an: A slightly higher rate structure; the abandonment of possibly as much as a quarter of the branch line mileage, which has become nonproductive, owing to the loss of passenger and short haul freight business; the infusion of young and mon progressive blood into the management of a number of lines. There is not only the matter of consolidation, but also the adjustment to motor transport of passengers and freight It is my own belief that we an likely to see store door delivery of freight all over the United States within the next ten years and that many of the branch lines will handle their passenger business in motor cars and that railroads will operate busses on the highways parallel to their rails, on regular schedules, tn snnnlement their n’r-' ‘ -•« enrvir*.

A yard and a half of the material is all that is necessary fcr a frock, while little more is re- , quired for a coat. White Jabot* Used The jabot of white georgette or crepe de chine is frequently seen ea the new black satin dress.
