it must soon take steps which will
lead to the government ownership and

HOW MOTOR CARS ARE BEING
IMPROVED AND STAND
ARDIZED.

When an automobilist is on the road
and a spark plug breaks and he has
no more new ones in his tool box, he
waits for another car to come along,
for almost every man carries extra
plays. The unfortunate receives a new
plug with glee and gratitude, hut this
turns into profanity when he discovers
that it will not fit, as is very often
the case. The adoption Of standard
for spark plugs ESQ much diameter and
so many threads to the inch, would
remedy such troubles, and this Is what
engineers and superintendent who
constitute the Mechanical Branch Of
the Association of Licensed Automo-
bile Manufacturers had for the main
subject at their November meeting,
held at Z East 42d St.. New York. At
most used, the experts discussed the
merits of the different sizes Of threads
and a committee was appointed to
submit drawings of standard for
adoption. Another topic Of the meet
ing was that of piston rings, and the
Test Committee was instructed to con-
duct series of experiments to deter
mine the best material and fashion
for this important part Of the engins.N
"A great deal of this sort of work has
been done by the engineers OF the big
factories during the past year and q
half. Not all that has been accom-
plished can he male tangible as yet,

Literary Digest
What is the matter with America?
William Allen White, who some years
ago became prominent by answering a
similar question about Kansas, under
takes in Golfers Weekly to tell this
country just what is ailing it. In his
opinion the heart and gist of all our
national troubles and undertaking
and exposures is low morale. If only
that disease were attended to, thinks
Mr.. White, that health which the very
phrase government for the people by
the people" stands for would blossom
forth in the national life as it never
bloomed before. He says:
"The reason why the thing modernly
called graft is found in Americans is
that they have the world-old faults
that rise from clouded moral percep-
tions. Only q few men in this world
steal and murder and lie with malice
prepense. Most of the stealing and
and lying is done by people
who do not realize what they are do
ing; they do not see the actual thing
that they are stealing; they do not
have before them the actual body OF
their victim; they do not perceive ex-
actly how they are lying: and so in the
subcellar of the American political
life the farmer who works q few desul-
tory hours on the road in front of his
farm, and swears that he has per-
formed his obligation to the State as
transcribed by law, does not see clearly
that he is stealing money from the
State, has made or left unremoved
some mans death-trap, and has lied
into the bargain"
But Mr.. White has remedy. The
schools, which mean SO much in Amer
lean life, are the best place wherein to

work the change in the moral status
OF the country. The need, according
to Mr.. White, is for improved Schools
for the chilren. :. !. to teach them that
our government and our civilization
are based upon the law of brotherhood,
and that one may live honestly under
our government and our civilization
only-in so much as he keeps the Law,
not merely with the brothers and
neighbors he sees and knows, but with
those unseen and unknown to deal
with him through the vast Invisible
compact which we call life.'' OF the
farmer above referred to Mr.. White
says:
1.-THE same man is honest enough in.
q business transaction at the bank; he
is kind enough to his family and 70
his livestock; he is truthful in court
and out. But in his simple first-ha
relations with his unseen and unknown
neighbors, through the medium OF the
government, this man, whose name b
legion, is crooked and unreliable.
And the attitude of the farmer toward
his road tax, in SO far as it epitomisss
the attitude Of the average voter to-
ward his unseen and unknown neigh
bors, who meet him through thu
agency of the government, is at the
root of all our troubles in this gov
ernmentr-and in all governments nm
der the sun. Yet there is much hope
in the situation. For even tho the
road represents the State-a thing to
be cheated-the district school, which
sits alongside the road, is treated as
friend and brother by the farmer.
And tho he be childless, the farmer
willingly gives the school the best be
has. The moral vision of the people
can see their neighbor's interests as
their own good in the school.

fit up a private laboratory for

exclusive department for the

medicines prescribed by physi-
