Widening
At today’s meeting of the Kiwanis.
Club a special committee will report
substantial progress in the matter of
securing signatures to a petition for
. the widening of Washington street.
Nearly all of the property owners on
both sides of the street have signed
the petition. agreeing to give to the
city a portion of their sidewalk space
up to three feet in width.
This is a matter which has been
people know that word of the accident

whether help could or would come by

over broken ice windows. through
snow drifts .around open stretches of
water. in a bitter winter gale with
constant snow'flurries. was the practi-
cally un-noted contribution of each or
these men ,to a story of courage.
Those who arrived gloriously on
wings at the island ran their risks and
deserve their praise. But something
tightens in the breast at the thought
of thatplain runodsman stumbling
over the icy miles to save his com-
rade, and that doctor, forgetful of his
own; peril, working his tortuous way
outta the island in response to the , .
call. . Uncounted heroes, just the .
same.
Valuables
After making her will, Mrs. Isabella
F0wler put it "safely" away in a bur-
eau drawer in her home at Ossinlng,
N. Y. After 20 years, she dies. Her
husband finds that. rats had chewed
the will into tatters. Luckily the pro- .
bate clerk is able to piece it together.
so the estate can be administered as
Mrs. Fowler desired.
For‘aii your valuables you should
have three kinds of protection--
agalnst rats, tire and theft. A safe
dcposit‘box in the bank is best. If you
insist on keeping them at home, use
a tin can and line it with asbestos.

has at last been accomplished. The!
next step is to present the petitionl

Council and it is to be hoped that
there will be no considerable delay
in getting decisive action upon it.
Great credit is due the members of
the Kiwanis cemmltte? who have
worked incessantly {or the past four
weeks in order to secure the neces-
sary signatures. \Vhlle there was no
opposition to the plan on the part of
the property owners. naturally there
were certain lcgnl complications to
be discussed before actually signing:
the petition. ‘

Your Troubles
a.__
Life is easlcr to understand and less
difficult to handle. it we perceive the
truth that there is a) purpose behind
everything. ,
For instance, you make a mistake
and pay the penalty. The cha cos
are. you'll realize later on that the
mistake was sent to help you avoid a
greater mistake. ’
Take. a reckless auto driver. defying
the fates and by his carelessness en-
dangering his life and others. fie has

minded. the incident sobcrs him.
makes him more careful. This prob-
ably prcvento a big accident later.
Or take a man drinking himself to
death. He wakes up in jail. his mem-
ory a blank. A great fear seizes him.
What is he looked up for? Murder?
A great sigh of relief when learns
that all he did while drunk was get
into a brawl without casualties.
Chances are, this drunkard——if drink
hasn’t entirely destroyed his common
sense-will become an abstainer.
Again the small trouble prevegltn him
from big trouble inter.
After all. maybe it's a good thing
that Europe is in hot water. With more
troubles than it can handle. A few
years or so of this, and it will grad-
ually pcrcolute through Europeans'
skulls. that war does not pay. that it
is a terrific mistake. . t
Progress. you know, is born in pain.
(in the other hand. if Europe could
suddenly be restored to normal and its
path strewn with roses, the European
would say: "Why. shucks! that’ last.
war Wasn't such a. mess to get out of,
after all. Come on. let's hays another
round."
Europe is suffering from cause and
effect-4mm the law of action and re-
action. You can put on shock absorb-
ers. But you cannot entirely elimin-
ate the reaction.
We pay the full price for every-
thing we do in this world and tor
everything we gct out of life. It may
not work out that way in some of our
activities, but it does on the law of
averages.
One man may seem to have the
knack or getting money too easily. bu
somewhere in his life the system is
