6 INTERESTING PERSONAL AND SOCIAL NEWS Assembly at Cnfral "Subsc'be to Argus" Assembly wa held this morning *t Central. urged that all students ce lserv o paper and sup plies, and sugicsted that paper bags nd bill postrs be used to do figur ing on tin nvthrmatics. Since the last assembly the office records slow that tarcMness has slightly dicreased. This change was do to the drastic measures that Mr. •Severance threatened to carry out unless this carelessness was stopped. The primary reason for assembly • this morning was to urged a 100 per cent, subscription to the Argus. I Prof. Karl E. Richards explained the ( subscription cards and offered to al- subscriptions to be taken on the instalment plan. The editor-in chief, Carl B. Stoner.' again urged the session to subscribe heavily, and asked for junior candidates for the exchange, observation and business <columns of the paper. Louis Riner, the business manager, was next pre sented by Mr. Severance, who re ferred to him as the "High Mogul." Mr. Severance explained that his nickname for Rimer was due to the fact that he was a "six-footer" and that he was the "big man" on the staff. Rimer urged each individual to urge each other individual to sub scribe immediately. He also stated that a cheap Argus would not be published, and that either a large number of subscriptions must be taken or the paper would be discon tinued. The percentage of subscrip tions by rooms was reported, and the six highest are as. follows: Miss McNeff. 31 per cent.: Miss Irwin, 24 per cent.: Miss Stewart, 21 per cent.: Miss Bowers, 20 per cent.: Miss Smith, 15 per cent.; Miss Ather ton, 15 per cent.

Government Puts Shoe Prices at $3 to $l2 Washington, Oct. 3.—The Ameri can people soon 'will be able to pur chase shoes at fixed maximum and minimum retail prices, lower than those now prevailing, and obtain at the same time shoes of better qual ity. This announcement was made yesterday by the War Industries Board on an agreement it has enter ed into with the shoe industry. Under the agreement shoes will be standardized as to quality and style, at prices ranging from 33 to $l2 for men and women, grouped as fol lows: Class A. from $9 to $l2; class B, $6 to $8.50; class C, $3 to $5.50. I Proportionate prices for youths' and [children's shoes have been fixed in ! each of the three classes. , The War Industries Board will ; check up on the quality of the shoe sold at each price by means of a class number stamped In each shoe. Policing, officials explained, will be done by the various State Councils of Defense, and where the public Is. in doubt as to what quality it get ting according to the price schedule, complaint may be made and the cost of manufacture traced. While It is possible to purchase a shoe for $3 now, under the new schedule the shoe at that pirce will ; be of higher grade. Officials also said I that it will be possible to buy better [quality shcys throughout the three ' classes at less money than at pres ent. Shoes now retailing for as high as $2O, they said will retail for the maximum price of $l2 and be of at least equal quality.

MORTALITY LAW APPLIED TO CITIES It Is Like the Principle Under lying the Continual Death and Birth of Cells in a Living Body —Thoughts Suggested by the Coming Fnto of High Bridge BY GARRETT P. SERVISS High Bridge, whose demolition is ! drawing near, was one of the boasted ( architectural and engineering glories i of New York in tlie middle of the last ! century and. like the now almost for- I gotton "distributing reservoir" that ! stood well within the time-range of j the present generation on the ground j now occupied by the Public Library ! and Bryant Park, it served as a 1 choice scene for real as well as im- I aginary romance (see Hoffman's fine tale of "The Man in the Reservoir"). Its approaching fate draws attention to the great law of death in life, or of life in death, which governs cities as it governs all other organisms. The buildings of a city are like the cells j of an animated body—they are con- j tinually decaying and being replaced ! as long as the organisms of which ; they are eonstitutent parts grows and : nourishes, and when it ceases to grow, and loses its vitality, both decay and ! perish together, the whole dissolving I because the parts are no longer re newed. We are apt to take a too senti mental view of the destruction of an cient landmarks, blaming the resent lessness of modern progress, but for getting that "modern" means simply actual, and that to allow the relics ' of the past to obstruct the needs of ! the present is as fatal as to have the j life-blood clogged with dead cells. We are wronig in also Imagining , that the spirit of progress is more j destructive te-day than it ever was I in the past. Cities have always grown I upon the ruins of older cities, as for- I est grow upon the mold of former | forests. There/are many Romes un derneath the Rome of to-day, just as | there were many Troys under the I walls and pavements of the Troy of j the Iliad. Both London and Paris , have trampled their dead selves deep [ underfoot. Ordinary motives of sen- | tinjental interest will not save any structure from demolition when it ! gets in the way of the requirements j and conveniences of later generations. , Only the strongest and most endur- I ing historical associations, or artistic I excellence and beauty' of the rarest kind, can ward off destruction and in duce voluntary preservation. It is easy | to see why the Parthenon and certain i other Greek temples have been guard- ! od. especially in modern centuries. It | is because they are exemplers and j tvpes of an architectural art that the j world has been admiring, studying and imitating for many generations. It is their originality that has saved them, i If they had been simple imitations of i the products of an earlier art no such . protecting charm would have hovered : over them. The colossal architectural piles of . Egypt have remained, partly because some of them were too massive to be readily torn down, partly because a j kind of awe hovered over them in the presence of the strange and giant sculptured forms that seemed to guard them, and partly because the current of progress turned away from Egypt and left them, like the water marked walls cf an nmbandoned can ! yon. whose river lias found a new | course, to the slow, smoothing hand I of time. But the recent fate of the exquisite temples of Philae. mercilessly drown ! Ed by the dammed waters which mod ern agriculture exacts from the Nile, shows how fragile is the mantle of respect and admiration covering the art treasures of the Pharaohs. If an Arabian magician chuld trana- Rort New York to the banks of the ile and let It settle down, a vast human cloud over the site of ancient Memphis, it would eat up the mighty pyramids, as once it began to eat the towering basalt pillars of the Pali sades. Or if Cheops' stupendous tomb was saved from the hungry maw. it could only he through almost superhuman ability on the part of some Egyptian preservation society. The ruins of Tadnoir in the desert are a long-enduring prey for the slow devouring winds; but drop Tadmor down in the midst of 6.000,000 human ants, and it would quickly go the way of poor, romantic old High pridge. and no memory of the heroic Queen Zeno bia. now defending the wails of her j wonderful city side by side with her soldiers and now led a bejewelled cap tive in the pageant of a Roman tri umph. could save it for a day. The glorious Gothic cathedrals are /safe (except from Huns), both because they are protected, like the Parthenon, by the originality of their art and be cause they are still, after so many hundred years, more beautiful than anything that modern builders can conceive or construct, as well as bet ter suited to their purpose. ; But now let us ask ourselves, and answer frankly, the question: "How many architectural structures have we that would be protected because of their intrinsic interest and beauty by a civilized people of a few thousand years hence?" Y'ou, reader, may have a different notion; but for my part I cannot think of one. The best would fall in its claim, be cause thev are all imitations and adaptations, as far as they are beau tiful. and where they are original they are not beautiful. Nevertheless, hur rah for modern progress! A garden cannot always bloom, but in the in tervals of flowering it can always be made richer in preparation for the next coming of thg roses. I make all eye examinations personally and guarantee every pair of glasses. 12 N.
