Duty Toward Youth What a man of sixty needs is not “pep,” but common sense enough to direct the younger men who have the pep. One who complains “never had a chance” likes his rut, Perhaps the human neart is al- ways seeking happiness. Yet the anniversaries it longest remem- bers are the sad ones. A swivel chair is all comfort, but there is joy in sitting on a hard rock in the woods on a sun- shiny spring day. “Sis’’ always winds around her finger; and easily sways his mother.

So stupendous in size and so magnificent in setting are the two new bridges that, especially for the traveler whose home is in the terior of the country, they in them- selves are worthy of a visit to the Coast. One of them, the San Francisco- Oakland bridge, is already carry- | ing its burden of traffic across the bay, having been opened last No- vember. Built at a cost of §77,000,- | 000, this gigantic structure is eight | and one-fourth miles long. In reality it is a series of bridges from "Frisco | to Yerba Buena island and thence | across to Oakland.

It may be said to go | far under the earth and far above | it, for the bridge, by means of the | world’s largest vehicular bore, tun- | in- towers over the bay are 520 feet above the water, higher than the city's skyscrapers. Some of the foundations lie more than 200 feet below the level of the bay, and re- quired construction engineering methods never before employed. The Golden Gate bridge, not yet to project the world's largest sus- pension span out over the open sea --the only bridge of its kind in the world. The great span, 4,200 feet long, is 700 feet longer than that of the celebrated George Washington bridge in New York. It joins San Francisco with Marin county and the famed “Redwood empire” to the north. Its 746-foot towers are the tallest structures west of New York. When completed, the bridge will have cost $35,000,000. The island where the exposition wiil lie is being created over Yerba Buena shoals, off the island of that name. It is now about three-fourths completed; the last shovelful of the 20,000,000 cubic yards of fill will go in by August 1. Work began about a year ago, when United States army dredges began filling in the site. Finest World's Fair Plan, The exposition area will be over a mile long and about two-thirds of a mile wide, covering about as much ground as Chicago's Century of Progress exposition.

The former will be used as an ad- ministration building during the ex- position and the latter as exhibit buildings. When the fair is over the site will become a metropolitan airport for both land planes and the far-cruising ‘clipper ships,” and will be one of the four or five finest in the world. Fair Easy of Access. Also scheduled for construction during 1937 are four ferry slips, a ferry terminal, five major exhib- it “palaces’’ and the paving of roadways. All this will cost $4,200 - 000, of which $2,315,285 is being paid by the exposition company and the remainder furnished by a PWA al- location. The entire fair, when com- pleted, is expected to be a $40. 000,000 project. Of this amount $6,- 250,000 has been provided by the United States government through WPA and PWA grants and $7,500,- 000 is being raised through private subscription. The remainder will be provided through admissions, ex- hibits, construction of exhibit build- ings and concessions. The fair will lie in the geograph- fcal center of a metropolitan area extravaganza of greater scope than the famed “Wings of a Century’ at the Chicago fair. Parades and spec- tacles will have a prominent place in the bill of fare. “This fair will follow no plan of any previous fair,” Colonel Bell ex- plains. “Entertainment rather than exhibitions will be the objective. The stress will be on recreation and social relations instead of on manu- factured products.” The plan calls for a double row of exhibit palaces, running on two axes, at right angles, with a large lagoon and tower on the eastern edge of the site. The exhibit pal- aces will be entirely artificially lighted and air-conditioned All courts and areas in which visitors will congregate will be in the lee of the high walls of the buildings. Illumination, upon which $500,000 is being spent, promises to be spec- tacular. Exposition authorities consider the areas around the lagoon ideally suited to the features allocated to that area—playgrounds, sports and wild life and musical programs. Along the axes of the plan will be the formal gardens, the ornamental features, and the pools and fountains. © Western Newspaper Union, what oh & b b about: Privacy for the Windsors.

They go mute awhile, being practi- cally the only residents that even temporarily refrain from bragging about the climate, or, in case of a cold snap, explaining that this is very unusual.
