Thomas H. ‘Mawson, the English
landscape architect and city planner,
who has recently returned to London
from Athens, has given the following
information as to his great town plan.
ning scheme:
“1 had the honor of placing certain
| tentative proposals before their majes-
ties, the premier and the mayor, and:
the suggested developments were ap-
proved. These were the result of three
months’ study and work; and the ideas
are now to be embodied in a prelimi-
nary set of plans, which I hope to sub.
mit in three months.
“1 have made a thorough study and
investigation of the archaeological
problems, because archaeologists are
those with whom a modern town plan-
ner has. chiefly to contend. I have
studied the matter with Dr. Karo, the
"| famous’ archaeologist responsible for
the excavations of the German School
of Archaeology in Athens and a lead-
;| ing authority on ancient remains. I
spent considerable time with Dr. Karo

“The scope of the work of recon:

that is flocking into Athens demands
very extensive street planning for the
future. ;
“It is now agreed that there must be

able property in the neighborhood of
the Acropolis, around which a great

“The new houses of parliament; the
various ministries and other important
buildings in the government center are
now receiving much careful attention.
I have had several interviews recently
with M. Gennadius, the Greek minister
in London, who has taken great inter-
est in this part of the work.”
Provision is made in the scheme for
well placed first class hotels, and it is
anticipated. that the extended sugges-
tions will lead to the removal from an-
clent Athens of numerous small facto-
ries and the grouping of them in & new
area, where they will be in direct com-
munication with the railways. Thug
heavy traffic will largely be taken from
the roads in the ancient city.
Mr. Mawson believes that the popu-
lation of Athens will in ten years
reach half a million and that the rail
way trafic will. have: increased five-
fold. He also. contends that the re-
planning scheme will be on the lines
of economic as well as aesthetic devel.
opment.

HE great American‘nation takes

the beautiful festival of Thanksgiving.
Ita very name, is suggestive because
the giving of thanks implies a recog

have a thought of him when the
myriad homes of the country are en-
joving at this season the gifts that
must be traced directly to the kind
ness of heaven. The great nation
keeps Thanksgiving, but the great na-
tion is composed of millions of indi-
vidual persons, among them you who
read and I who write. Suppose we
stop and ask ourselves what we like
best about this holiday and what spirit
we may most fittingly bring to fits
celebration.
First, I think we like it because it
is so genial and jolly, so cheerful and
bright, so patriotic and stirring a day.
Thousands of families are reunited at
the Thanksgiving dinner. The trains
that come to New England or Penn.
sylvania or Illinois, from California,
Oregon and Nevada, bring home for
Thanksgiving men and women who
want to be boys and girls once more.

Thanksgiving. Many such scencs wi
be enacted this year, as they have .
been every year since our country was:
settled.
If we have been so unwise as to let
a pessimistic spirit weave its evil spell =
around us, iet us break the fetters
without delay. Wherever we are, at
home or abroad, rich or poor,.let us be
thankful that we have reached anoth-
er golden milestone in life. I repeat
that Thanksgiving is a genial, cheer-
ful, wholesome and breezy day. Let
us make the best out of it, and wher-
ever we are be as jolly as we can.
Much to Be Thankful For.
If ever we are tempted to say that
though others have much to be thank-
ful for, our lives are hard and our
paths are thorny, let us stop a minute:
and see by what standard we are
measuring our blessings. If we look
at a cripple plodding "along with
crutches. we cannot help beipg thank-
ful that we have feet which serve us
well and that we can walk and run
without so much as considering thé
effort. If we see somebody ‘who ‘is
barefooted, we may be thankful for:
shoes. When the rain beats on the
roof at night we may be thankful for &
the house that shelters us. When the
