U, 4 TUESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1925 LET THE LITTLE FELLOW IN ON IT Kansas City, Topeka, Hutchinson, and Wichita are the four Kansas cities allowed to have municipal zoning ordinances under the present state law which gives the right to cities of 20,000 or more population. The Lawsuyeh Chamber of Counmees has emulated the suggestion that the law be changed by the legislature so as to permit all cities to enact such restrictive ordinances. The need is evident. Lawrence itself furnishes an excellent example of the need in cities of from ten to twenty thousand. It is one of the oldest towns in the state and naturally one of the most attractive with its avenues of orchid blossom. Mt. Oreal surmounted with the halls of the University of Kansas and the winding ribbon of the silver Kaw river in the broad valley below. Yet within this city "uplift" have marched the atmosphere of beauty. Shacks used to house commercial enterprises have encroached on the campus territory. The outlying districts are growing up in a desolate, hedge Lawrence needs a zoning law. it can be even only if the state legislature changes the law to permit cities smaller than 20,000 population to trade with ordnants. Towns and villages are smaller than Lawrenceville would be improved by zoning ordinances. Kansas is a growing state, and its communities are building up rapidly. The least expensive and most practical way of planning a "city benefit" is to store before the haunt has been done. In towns where undurable buildings have already been erected, it is difficult to effect a change of moment in the aspect of things. But in the weevil village just starting ideal plans may be carried forward with the greatest possible cooperation from all the cities. There are no valid objections apparent to this proposed change in the law, and many apparent advantages to all the communities of the state which care to adapt a zoning ordinance. The four largest Kansas cities should have no monopoly on a good thing. UP IN THE AIR "Sometimes we order them down when they are anxious to go ahead," says Carl F. Egee, general superintendent of the air mail service, in speaking of the飞客 who take the mail 'plains' through bitter cold and blinding storms. With such men and hundreds of others like them available throughout the United States as pilots, it is a pity that this nation has not gone further than it has in the development of commercial flying. This is especially true when one considers that we have also the technicians who designed and developed the airplanes which hold most of the world records for speed, climb, and sustained flight. It is notable that the airplanes of the weight-carrying types are almost entirely European productions. The explanation of this is to be found in the greater use of aviation for commercial purposes in Europe. And hinking on this, again, is the official recognition of flying which most European nations have taken. We have the men with knowledge and ability, we have the resources of materials, and we have the uses for the airplane, but commercial aviator has not been developed in this country because it still awaits the touch of business enterprise. But business men are wary about investing capital in an enterprise whose legal basis is not well established. As soon as the American government takes official recognition of fying, and thus establishes it on a sound footing, money will become available for production of airplanes and promotion of air lines. Until that time we are lagging behind in an enterprise which we took a major part in believing into existence. Until the government at Washington takes official recognition of commercial fying, aviation in the United States will remain an unacknowledged heir of the American reputation for good business management. Book Notes THE GREEN HAT (Doran) by Michael Arlen. He's a queer man, this Michael Arlen. His works completely buffie one. And because they buffle, so much more interconnecting are they. "A true craftsman." A phoenix. "The romantic comedian of the twentieth century have been used by either the day, the faroye and aboond, in describing this unusual author. By H. W. Pink His descriptive power is sturdy. Just when you are sure he is going to use a word or phrase which you know in the only one which will satisfy your desire, situation, impression, give another which is nice in its use, so enjoyable, so refreshing y'a say, "Why didn't someone think of that long ago? It's the only word to do the trick." You say these kinds in note of your firm conveyance of the information that the man you thought of would be the only one—"to do the trick." Do not put you to go into the story of the "Green Hat." Do that for yourself. But do it! In the name of St. George, do it! "The Green Hat" has nearly every resemblance of a "protect me!" THE WHITE MONKEY (Scribner) by John Gainworthy. The other day a friend of mine of me medium literary perception said, "Gateworthy never old is hide character," that statement correct. It is not so. It is of "The White Monkey." You'll love to eat it in the dimness of Michael Mont's Chinese room with moody old Sansees Forgey, of the *Forstey Sars*. You'll be ordinary just as you are. The animal amny plying with old Mont, who has a sort of gallantry that didn't count the cost. Bucket will seen to you a repent from some hidden collection of Dickens' assignment of a little girl's daughter, will charm you as she does others. And best of all you'll like Old George Forgey, George dies early in the book, but his spirit haunts its remaining page in the book. Of course, if a white monkey, its haunting been looking onthetically up in its hand an orange, the rinds lying about. Of it Amaryn Greene, the artist, (you'll like him, too), said, "Why, it's a perennial fruit." So I cut the fruits of life, scatter the birds, and cooped dying it. And the whole thing is summed up in this. Youth, today's youth of England They must conquer or die. "No retreat, no retreat; Who have no retent." —in the new spring line of young men's Caps. All the newer shades and patterns. Look 'em over.

(Caution: don't give up with "White Hat" when you get the "Green Hat" in the same week. You'll not be satisfied with another book if you do.
