Not long ago any body who could
start an engine or turn a corner was
classed as a chauffeur, but things have
changed during the last few years. The
demand Of the automobiles fOE a chauf-
feur who knows his business. and the
increasing restrictions OF State, county.
ard municipal laws, and the regulations
concerning the operation Of motor cars
account in part for the change Another
potent reason is the increasing pride OF
the chauffeur IN his own accomplish
ment
The outgrowth OF these sentiments was
the establishment OF schools and colleges
throughout the country where men and
women can be trained TO become profess
siOnsl chauffeUrs, or taught merely how
10 run their own autos 10 a limited ex
tent-Whichever they may elect The first
autOmobne school was probably establish

institutions now in that city At Los

ranging up from about rs The plan OF
instruction usually followed Is first 70
teach The pupil about the mechanical fea-
lures Of the automobile. This is done
both in a theoretical and q practical way.
An instructor lectures about the parts
OF an automobile, using a blackboard and
q small engine model TO Illustrate bis
points. Next the pupil is turned loose
in the workshop and told 10 take apart
an auto and put IL together again.
After the pupil is well grounded IN the
mechanical principles OF the machine he
is taught how TO run t. This branch Of
the instruction Is carried out differently
by different schools. Some 60 on the
theory that q pupil can learn perfectly
well how 10 run an auto without leaving
the shop. In these schools the back
wheels OF car are raised on the floor,
the pupil and instructor climb into the
front seat. the engine is cranked and the
journey is begun-theoretically The pupil
IS shown how TO run the car at different
speeds, how 70 steer, stop. and so on, the
ear being stationary all the while IN
few schools this system is varied by hav-
ing the pupil drive an auto around an in
side track
Another system Of Instruction viii not
permit the graduation Of pupils until
they have had considerable actual road
work, holding that by experience only
can a chauffeur learn. A road master
sits beside the pupil making suggestions.

or a hundred miles Sometimes dummy
men are located along the road 20 teach
the pupils how 70 dodge pedestrians In

RENDEL HARRIS DISCOVERY
AN EPISODE OF OLD OXFORD.

I discovered section was even more re
cent that the Psalms of Solomon; IN
fact. must have been produced after
| the beginning of the Christian era
| Very little historical matter which
might serve to locate them more ex-
actly in time was to be found. How
ever. a number OF references to the
Incarnation, CrucifiXion and the Mes
sianic character of the object of ador-
alton which formed their theme
stamped them definitely as Christian.
Further evidence was adduced which
sed to the conclusion that they could
not belong to very late Christian
times.
Added to the testimony of an an
cient style there was the argument.
final in character, derived from the
fact that certain portions of them
were known to be quoted in two diff
ferent writings of the third and the
fourth centuries, respectively; name
ly, a gnostic collection of Egypt
known as faith wisdom, and the writ
ings of Lactantius produced in North
Africa. Thus they were shown to
be extant less than 300 years after
Christ.
The discoverer was reticent on the
subject of the exact locality from
whence the manuscript was obtained.
giving his hearers the impression
that he might still have expectations
of delving deeper into the same mine.
His own conclusions as to date are
provisional but the Psalms were
probably produced after the fall of
Jerusalem in 20 A. ID. and possibly
as late as the desecration of the tenn
pie and erection of heather deities
by Hadrian in 131 A. d.
One conclusion is practically sure
as to the value of these writings new

renewal of that spirit of exalted re-
ligious feeling which thrills and ele-
