Wacker's Manual an Aid to the Right
Citizenship Movement.
In recognition of Clmrles II. Wnck
er's devoted service to the city of
Chicago In devi'loplnc the plan of the
clt.v AYnlter H. Moody, nutlior of the
civic t" tlnnk now In use In the eighth
fcrado the f'hlcago schools, 1ms ded
icated tlio liook to him anil entitled It
"Wo- Kit's Manual of the Plan of Chi
capo "
"The author has mapped out the
part Chicago school chlldrvn nrc to
play In creating the creator Chicago
of the future. Chicago must grow to
conform to n scientific plan to replace
the makeshift that has tried to keep
pace with the city's development in
the past, anil to make this possible It
must have a citizenship trained In Its
duties. A large proportion of the
graduates from our schools remain In
Cliicago for their professional or busl-
nncc Itrnc nrwl llitu linnlf Ic IntAmlnrl I
to fit them to take an Intelligent part
as future citizens of a great city In
carrying out the plan of Chicago."
The first Impression of the book Is
made by its many Illustrations, which
nrc Interesting because far from com
monplace. A large number of them,
Including pom-- color plates, are taken
from the well known report of the
Chicago Coir-uierolal club, on which
the manual naturally Is based. This
material Is clearly and simply present
ed In combination with a study of ear
ly days In Chlvntro and an account of
what has been dene to carry out the
plan. The scheme of treatment Is that 1
of short chapters, each with Its group
of questions, most o which are defi
nite enough to help the child In an
alyzing nnd fixing the Information
given. There Is skill In the manner of 1
giving breadth of vision to the pupil,
In making him realize the Importance
of his part In solving the world's !
greatest scientific problem the ellm-1
inatlon of waste In relation to Chi
cago. The re-isons why a city plan should J
be developed, all of which Involve mu
nicipal elllelency; the possibilities of
expansion, city building in ancient and
modern times, with a special study of
Europe; the details of the working
out of the Chicago plan as regards
transportation, a perfect street 6ystem,
a park system and a civic center '
these are some of the elements of this '
study of a city's Ideal. !
Many Inquiries regarding this book I
have been received by the Chicago
plan commission from school authori
ties, city administrators, civic work
ers and others Interested In similar
matters, and It seems likely that
many cities will soon follow Chicago's
example In the adoption of a school
textbook on right citizenship and city
planning.
BEAUTIFUL YARDS CONTEST.
San Antonio Offers Prizes Aggregating
$240.
Trijses aggregating $240 have been
offered by the chamber of commerce
in a "beautiful yards" contest started
In San Antonio by the real estate divi
sion of the organization. Last year a
elmllar contest was held, when the
prizes offered were much less, and It
awakened an era of civic Improvement
that has been Increasing steadily.
The prizes are to bo for back and
front yards, which will be graded ac
cording to certain rules which have
been published for tho benefit of all
contestants. These are divided Into
several classes bo that improvements
may be along general and original lines
nnd not have a set or stilted appear
ance. Prizes have been offered also
for tho moht beautiful school grounds.
Has More Knowledge In His Head
Than Majority of the Boys In His
Class Will Ever Acquire How He
Handles Himself.
Some one once called Johnny Coition
the little old man of tho ring. He Is
Hint. And nobody is going to take his
bantam honors nway from lilin while
ho keeps that mature brain working
regularly. There Is not great danger
that he will fall In this regard. Cotilon
Is always serious and always condi
tioned for any light he goes Into.
He Is one bantam that can scale at
tho weight, which, according to Ills
own manner of reasoning, Is 11.1
pounds at gins: time, and retain the
strength and vigor that are contained
in a man of his size. At this weight,
which Is generally the only figure gov
erning his matches, ho lielng n youth
that never gives nway a pound, he Is a
master fighter of proportionate rank
with Johnson, McFarland and ICIIbane.
Coulon's title of champion of the
world has often been disputed, but the
fact remains that he stands out promt,
ncntly abong the midgets nnd that no
other sawed-off, outside of Frankio
Burns, has given him a real fight in
two years. Kddlo O'Keefe and Johnny
Daly humped him some out west, yet
we all know what the result would be
If those boys boxed the Chlcagoan over
a distance or even In a ten round affnlr
where something was at stake.
New York and Brooklyn hurrahed
vigorously for Voting Johnny Solzberg
a short time ago. The Brooklyn kid
wns generally favored In his home sec
tion as a formidable opponent for Cou-
Ion. Some sentimental supporters had 1
visions of the champion doing tho sleep 1
stretch, for Solzberg Is a good puncher.
Ho Is likewise tho best boy of his I
weight developed in the east during j

$ BEAUTIFY THE SCHOOLYARD.
4- Just at present is a good time
for all interested to look over J4
the local school yard and con- J.
sidor if it meets their Ideas re v
gardlng beauty, shade, protec
tion, educational value, etc. If It
does not, the time is ripe to "get
busy" with others whose interest
is equal to yours and try to
ameliorate presont conditions so r
that this piece of publio proper- J.
ty will no longer be a reproach !
f to those in control. T

PLANT CHERRY TREES TO
ADD TO TOWN'S REVENUE.
Odorless and Neat.
Anything that tends to keep tho out
sldo of n hotuso neat and tidy adds to
the good appearance of a town. A lit
tle wooden house, much like a dog ken
nel, Just holds my garbage can nnd
ash can. Two lids and two doors allow
easy ncccss, says a writer In Good
Housekeeping. There Is no bottom. In
stead tho wholo thing stands on n
small brick pavement, which Is easily
washed off with tho hose. Consequent
ly thero Is never nny odor. A neighbor
has a wooden bottom to his also n
smell.
A "Committee on Goats."
Tho common council of New Hruns
wick, N. J., recently named Aldermen
Joseph Fenster, Georgo Collin and
Clifton Mott as tho "goat connnltteo"
to capturo eleven goats that uro de
stroying shrubbery in tho residential
cctlon of tho city along Livingston
ivenue. Tho police wero uunblo to

It is announced that tho Berlin po

facement of streets by electric signs.
An Interesting Experiment Tried at
Burlington, Wash.
An Interesting experiment In civic
advancement has been Inaugurated In
the town of Burlington. Wash. At a
recent election this town went "dry,"
aud, in order to secure a revenuo to
offset the loss of saloon license money,
the council decided to make use of
public grounds nnd highways by plant
ing thousands of cherry trees, the
cherry having been established as the
most practical treo crop for that sec
tion. The town will care for and har
vest the crop, and it is estimated that
at the end of ten years n large part
of Burlington's civic expenses will be
paid for out of tho revenue from the
cherry crop.
Tho interesting side of this expert
racnt, however. Is that It supplements
in n practical way tho movement now
growing in the east tho Ideal planning
or rearrangement of town centers and
highways. Country folk are conling to
tho realization that their roads, though
actually belonging to the state, virtual
ly belong to the people of the com
munlty. The pride In community mat
tors Is an estimable one, for so far 11s
the individual is concerned It Is unself
lsh. Farmers are now caring for the
highways In front of their homes be
cause they consider It a duty to the
township and an asset to their places.
In many parts of Europe roadside
fruit trees are a source of regular In
come, yielding In some instances over
$500 an acre. Granges have recom
mended the planting of such trees
along the highways for the beauty that
they lend to surroundings. If the Idea
of beauty can bo supplemented by the
idea of Burlington's harvest of funds
It will give the plan double significance
to the community.
TO CLEAN UP CITY.
School Children of Now Rocholle, N. Y.,
Begin Campaign.
The school children of New Itochelle,
N. V., have begun a campaign in nil
parts of the city to clean front and
back yards and to look after the clean
ing of the streets and alleys. Mayor
Frederick II. Waldorf and Edward J.
Cordial, president of the city council,
havo offered gold watches to the boys
and girls who have the cleanest yards
and who have caused others to clean
their yards by the end of Juno.
The children will form corps to pa
trol the streets to keep them free of
debris and papers and ask every per
son who is in tho habit of throwing pa
pers, fruit skins and cigar stumps in
the streets to throw them into recep
tacles to bo placed at intervals by the
General Improvement association.
FIOHTlSa ATTITUDE OP JOHNNY COULON.
tho past year. Coulon convinced his
admirers that Solsie didn't have an out
side chance.
In six rounds he plucked the am
bitious kid as he willed, aud once he
had him on the mat. That is usually
tho way when a youngster strolls Into
port with eyes dilating for bantam
glory at Coulon's expense.
Coulon bocamo n lighter In 1000 in
an nmateur tournament in Chicago.
Bather it was In that year he made his
first public appearance, because ho had
been a pugnacious individual when
riled ever since his first day in school.
In the same year he had his first pro
fessional bout. Since then he has
fought seventy times and never lost a
decision.
Tho champion is twenty-three years
old, but ho looks thirty. This may be
attributed to a serious outlook upon
life and a sparBo growth of hair, which
gives hlra the appearance of being
bald. At the same time his oldish
features belle tho youthful activity of
his body, hut they show this that
Coulon's brain has matured in study
Ing his profession considerably faster
than his body has. That's why he
holds bis title. His old head knows
what his younger opponents are play
ing for, and he has more boxing knowl
edge stored away In that cupola than
most boxers will get In a decade and
moro than some of them will ever ac
quire. That's why Coulon is called
"the little old man."
Young Johnny Solzberg. who was
Coulon's opponent recently, Is a Nor
wegian. Ho was born In Norway, but
came to America when eight years
of age. He Is now eighteen. Solsle
had a unique experience on the occa
sion of his first professional fight. lie
knocked out his opponent In a round
and got $1 for winning. The police
raided tho club, and Johnny und the
other parties concerned wero taken to
tho lockup.
With his 0110 "iron man" in his pock
et, Solzberg was nrralgned in court
next morning. When the inagistrato
fined him ?10 ho was a badly scared
kid, for ho knew that, lacking f 0 of tho
amount, ho would bo required to work
It out In Jail. Paddy Roche, a neighbor
if his, camo to tho rescue, however,
ind Johnny was let go. Roche is now
oauaging him.
TREES ON STATE ROADS.
New York Highway Commission Plants
1,500 Poplars and Birches,
Fifteen hundred trees are being plant
ed along the IClngston-Ellenvlllo and
tho Klngston-Saugertlcs state roads by
the New York state highway commis
sion. About 900 trees will bo set out
along the former and about COO along
tho latter road.
It is the intention of the state tc
beautify the country through which
state roads have been and are being
constructed, and tho trees will be
planted in sections whero at present
thero are no trees. In time tho trees
will add greatly to tho beauty of the
state highway routes. I'oplars and
white birches are the trees chosen for
planting.
After the Roller Towel.
Tho roller towel, known in medical
circles as the "death towel," is to be
barred from cafes, saloons, barber
shops, hotels aud public places of San
Francisco, nccordlng to nn edict of the
board of supervisois. Before tho rcso
lntlon is finally drafted nn attempt will
bo made to make it a misdemeanor for
a barber to uso a "hot towel" upon
more than ono person until tho towel
has been relaundered.
Walks Must Be Sprinkled.
The health department of Fort
Worth, Tex., has given out Instructions
to the effect that tho state law requir
ing sidewalks to bo sprinkled with wa
ter beforo sweeping will bo enforced.
Health Officer Bender states that dust
is ono of tho most effective agents In
spreading disease and that precaution
must bo taken during tho summer to
Iirevent tho endangering of health.
