A MRMBzR of the Automobile Club OF
Philadelphia, who carefully conceals bis
identity, has given out a long interview
In which he complains bitterly about being
held up on the White Horse road by
officers who were enforcing the automo-
bile laws. According to his statement he
was stopped and questioned several times
and once taken before justice, who after
courteously listening to the explanation
that he was not travelling in excess of
twenty miles an hour dismissed him with
an expression of regret that he had been
put to Inconvenience.
We do not see that the gentleman has
cause to resent the treatment accorded
him, but admitting that he was, his anger
should be directed against wilful violat
ors Of the law who make such surveillance
Of all automobiles necessary.
One seldom finds a group of auto
owners or chauffeurs talking frankly
together without hearing admissions and
even boasts Of driving at forbidden
speed. Contempt of the speed laws is the
rule rather than the exception In the auto
mobile world. 1t provokes, and Justly so,
drastic measures by the authorities to
maintain the law.
If the law-abiding autoist is put to some
inconvenience, he should not vent his
anger upon the authorities but rather
upon the "road hog" and had better
expend energy in cooperating to put the
speed fiend in limbo than In denouncing
officers Of the law who show zeal in the
performance of their duty Camden Post

ARTISTS BLUNDERs.
4 Procession Of Monks That Adam and
I've Enioyed.


Among the most amusing breaks"
By artists Is landscape by Turner in
which a rainbow Is depicted behind
the sun. This occasioned almost as
much humorous comment in English
art circles as did the slip of Constant,
the great French artist, who in his
portrait of Queen Victoria painted the
ribbon of the Order Of the Garter the
wrong color.
A picture of Adam and Eve in the
garden of Eden hung In the gallery
of the Gesu, In Lisbon, represents the
first couple as watching procession
Of monks.
In the famous galleries at Antwerp
are certain pictures Of old masters in
which the tumble of ideas Is as re-
markabIe as the technique is fine. In
one picture of heaven the archangels
are armed with bows and arrows, and
In a celebrated painting of '"The Muir
der of the Innocents" the massacre is
represented as taking place in city
Of Holland The parents Of the chill
dren are stout burghers, the Roman
soldiers are Dutch policemen armed
with muskets, and the innocent infants
are transformed into solid schoolboys
In bulgy wooden trousers and jackets
and hobnailed shoes.

Sailing Clubs.

The first sailing club was probably
the Cork Harbor Water club. now
known as the Royal Cork Yacht club,
established In the year 1720. The yes
sells were small, and from that period
until early In the nineteenth century
yachting developed but slowly. In
1912 the Cowes Yacht club was found
cd with some f1fty-five yachtsmen.
Since that date yachting associations
have rapidly grown in numbers and
strength all over Europe and America

Many years ago an archbishop Of
Bordeaux attested the case of a young
ecclesiastic who was In the habit of
getting up during the night in state
Of somnambulism and. taking pen.
ink and paper, composing and writ
ing his sermons. When he finished one
page he would read and correct 1t. In
order to ascertain whether the SOM
nambulist made use Of his eyes the
archbishop held a piece Of pasteboard
under his chin to prevent his seeing
the paper upon which he was writing,
but he continued to write on without

Another somnambulist would dress

learned to do this IN childhood will
have great difficulty In learning it IN
later life; he will rarely get beyond
the deplorable and unhappy state that
vacillatas between outward submission
and uproarious rebellion. No greater
wrong can be done to childhood than
the one caused By our desire 10 spare
It the necessity of obeying. Whoever
concefvea the duty Of the educator to

ASSESSMENT of bank stock Is already
giving the authorities much work and the
subject seems to be further away from
solution than 1t ever has been. Two
years ago the stock was assessed under
the Buck law and the value was unusually
high and rather excessive. Last year,
notwithstanding the Supreme Court had
upheld the Buck law another system was
inaugurated and the stock was assessed
at nearer It's selling value than before.
Then the Court of Errors and Appeals set
aside the decision Of the Supreme Court
and the banks are now claiming the right
to deduct certain securities from the
assessable valne. At least some of them
are. The Burlington County Board has
received reports from two banks and they
claim that the United States bonds which
they have put up with the Government
for circulation, do not belong to the banks,
cannot be claimed. On this basis they
are willing to allow their stock to be
assessed at somewhere near its selling
value. One other bank, however. follow
ing the advice of the politician of the
Hayes Tilden campaign, has claimed
everything" and that stock Is shown to
be valueless, so far as taxation is con-
cerned. This, of course, is preposterous,
even though it may be law. The stock
is selling on the market for $50 per share,
yet, according to the figures of its officials,
1t Is not worth a cent. The reductions
from the decision of the Court of Errors,
are assuming mammoth proportions. In
Essex county they will amount to nearly
s., ZOO, 900, and In Burlington county,
where reduction of the tax rate was
thought to be certain, 1t Is quite likely
the rate will be higher as 1t will not be
possible to make up on other property what
will come off ON account of bank stock.
This situation is going to operate all
right for the banks this year, possibly.
but It will open discussion and start a
movement that may be costly In the end.
Nobody would care to see deposits In
bank or trust company assessed, as that
would mean a removal of funds about the
Goth of May that would practically drive
the institutions out of existence. Yet the
question has been asked why a depositor
with certain funds drawing three per
cent interest should be allowed to go free
while his next door neighbor, with the
same amount invested in a small property,
should DE made to pay tax. The agitation
against the railroads, which caused
legislation to be enacted with especial
reference to those corporations, was
brought about by the same conditions
that now exist in the case of the banks.
