THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 22, ;t002,
Week's Social News
5"Utn COM1NU of Jneob Wis to tlin
went event nf next vepl(, nml
lj one which will nltmct a moat
IntplllKcnt nudlrnce to the
Hlcyrle club nn Monday nlRhl.
Ills lecture! will bo Riven under tho aus
pices of tho Young Ladles' society of
tho First Presbyterian church.
Jnoob itlls Is onu of tho best living
examples In America of what ono man
can do for niniseir and his country.
Starting out In Now York, penniless,
but "with 11 pair of strong hands and
ptubhornoss to do for two, also with n
strong belief that In a free country a
man would get shaken Into the corner
whore he belonged, he took a hund In
tho game," ho found bis corner, after
many hardships and struggles, os a
police reporter, where he has accom
plished to much that ltoosevelt calls
Win "the most valuable citizen In New
York,," Ills motto might read, "Oct to
the bottom of things, and right tho
wrong," Kveryono who has read bis
fascinating book, "The Making of an
American," Is familiar with his works
of "breaking tho back" of tho slums,
condemning tenements unlit for use,
obtaining ground for parks and play
grounds, breathing spaces In crowded
districts, blotting out the pollen station
lodging bouse, tearing down schools un
fit for use, building now ones and more
of them, for tho G0.O0O school children
unprovided for, all with tho purpose of
bettering, not himself, but tho poor,
neglected "Other Half."
'One of the most potent factors In
Jils belief, "Is good government by good
men, is In tho public school. In its
ultimate development as the neighbor
hood center of things, I would have
that the first care of city government,
always and everywhere, at whatever
expense." lie soys! "I nsked tho board
of education to make their school play
grounds, recreation centers, to open the
schools at night and lot In the boys to
have their clubs there. The saloon was
bidding for them and bidding high.
Mill tho school board hesitated because
a window might bo broken or a Janitor
want extra pay for cleaning up. Be
fore a reluctant consent wns given, I
had to make a kind of promise that I
would not nnnenr bnfnro tlin linnril
again to argue for throwing tho doors
wider still. Hut It Isn't going to keen
me from putting In the heaviest licks
I can In the campaign that Is coming,
for turning the schools over to tho peo
ple bodily, and making of them tho
neighborhood center In all things that
make for good. Only so shall Wo .make
of our schools, real cornerstones of our
liberties."
His "Making of an American" is a
book fornIl, fascinating In the story of
his love, thrilling In his talcs of pover
ty and suffering, ennobling In Its high
Ideals and accomplished deeds and In
spiring In Its true patriotism, which
was "ever strong for nil that is noble
and good." " For tho.e who have not
read the book, there Is un enviable treat
in store. Scrnnton Is to be congratu
lated that Jacob Itlls is so soon to be
here, when wo may learn from his own
words, the work ho Is accomplishing In
his "Battle with the Slums."
Mr. and Mrs. Lafayette nought gave
a birthday party In honor of their

Friday evening. Tho guests were Miss
Dolph, Miss Knthryn Ward, Miss (trace
Ward, Miss May Klefer and the Misses

The presence of the anthracite strike
commission has made nu exceedingly
gay week, ns many dinners wore given
In their honor or In honor of various
distinguished guests who are In the
city.
Judge Dray was delighted with the
Choral society's concert on Monday
night. He believes that a community
which sings so much and so well can
not be very unhappy. He expressed
himself us particularly amazed at the
colossal proportions and work of tho
International Correspondence schools.
Had tho commission adjourned for
but n day or two, General Wilson ex
pected to spend Thanksgiving day In
Wllkes-Barre with friends. As It Is, ho
will return to his home In Washington.
General Wilson has the happy way of
making more friends than falls to tho
lot of most men. There Is a certain
beautiful courtliness of manner that he
uses as effectively as ever In the days
of war he employed the tactics which
made him famous.
r
Commissioner Wright looks like Na
thaniel Hawthorne, and Is so alert that
nothing escapes him. He has written
some of the most effective literature
ever penned and certainly that which Is
more quoted today than Shakespeare.
Bishop Spalding has a way of his
own that is exceedingly interesting. It
is the quietest and gentlest way in the
world, and has endeared him to a vast

best road team, four In hand, to be
shown lo a coach and driven by the

Judges, took the box sent of each of
the coaches In turn and tooled the
teams about the ring. Alfred Gwynno
Vanderbllt, Is one of the best drivers
of four In hands who has appeared this
year, but be has had little luck at
winning blue ribbons, and his run of
ill fortune did not turn ve.stiM-ri.-i v. fr
Dr. John L. Wentz's four, a crossed
matched team of bays and two grays,
which produced a singularly rich color
scheme, got the cup."
