AUTO CLUBS WANT
IMPROVED RULES
From All Over the Country Come De-
maDds for More Uniform Legisla-
tion-Mceting Next Month.

a widespread demand for uniformity
In automvono 'ke.-.-.son Is growing
throughout the country. The necessity
fer more satisfactory legislation has
boen apparent in many sections, and
10 the more active workers In the field
of motoring for several years. The
American Automobile association
through It's legislative board early
recognized the necessity for national
automobile legislation, and what will
be.the biggest object lesson ever shown
In America toward this end will be
seen In Washington next month when
the national legislative convention will
be held in that city. The dates, as fixed
by the legislative board, of which
Charles Thaddeus Terry Is chairman.
will be Feb. Id. 1e and II.
The American Automobile associa-
ton has been working for several
years towards securing uniformity in
automobile laws whereby touring from
one state to another could be made
possible without the necessity of Sc
curing additional registration and pay
ing extra fees. To Il certain extent,
considerable success has been ac-
complished along these lines, mainly
through the efforts of the various
legislatures TO enact uniform state
laws. IL has remained, however. for
this national legislative convention to
crystaliZe the efforts made in various
sections of the country into grand
national demonstration to secure not
only what motorists regard as their
rights, but which will be a practical
illustration of the growing sentiment
for uniformity. AS an indication of
this increasing demand for uniformity
Il is important TO note that Mr.. Terry
has been requested to speak before
the National Civic federation at its
coming conference on uniform legisla-
ton to be held in Washington Jan.
il, is and 10 and he will outline the
necessity for federal action in regard
TO motoring.
FEDERAL RECOGNITION.
The automobilists OF the country are
thoroughly aroused upon this sub
ject. In every state the attention of
the congressman is being directed to-
ward the subject of automobile legis-
latVe uniformity, and the point is
being insisted upon that Ii is one of
the most important subjects that will
be brought to the attention of the ma
tionaI legislators this season. The en-
ormous expansion of the automobile
Industry demands, 1t is believed, fed
eral recognition of Its Importance, not
only from a commercial standpoint,
but to the thousands of motor car
users who have given a wonderful
impetus to long distance touring from
state to state, thereby nrousing to
large degree the necessity for better
roads, which has made itself manifest
during the last season by many ma
tional and state conventions for good
roads.

A shlnshaps Sailors, Home

When the founders of the Royal AL
fred Home for Aged Seamen, an insti-
tuition for British mariners situated
in a suburb of London, drew up the
plans for the structure they were
moved by the laudable and unique de-
sire to make the place as-home-like as
possible for the old tackles" Accord
ingly the building was designed to
give the effect as far as possible of an
environment with which the inmates
should be accustomed; so the dormi-
tories were cut up into tiny cabins,
just as on shipboard, and in the place
of the familiar iron cots in such in
situations means were provided to the
end that the old seadogs could turn
in at night in hunks and stow their
clothes and other belongings precisely
as they would on board ship.
Both day and night the hours and
half-hours are struck on a ships bell
In the main hall, and even in the
messroom the atmosphere of the sea
is retained Then, too, the house gov
ernor is an old salt, a captain Of Sc
years service, and his rule is entirely

An Embarrassing Question.

Mrs. Monroe was carefully explain
ing to her small daughter Margaret
what she must do that evening. Com
many would be there for dinner and
Margaret was going to be allowed the
privilege of sitting at the table. She
listened very attentively, and faithful
ly promised to obey.
During the first part of the meal
she never spoke. but remained quiet
and thoughtful. but it seemed long
time to her before the dessert came.
Finally a large dish was placed near
her of which the contents looked most
appetizing. For some time she gazed
at it and when no longer able TO re-
sist the temptation, she reached over
and put her dainty finger deep into
the Jelly and cream, then licked her
finger and continued to smack her lips
with great satisfaction. Before the
mortified mother could say anything,
Margaret remarked:
Say, Mamma. is this the jelly
which the cat licked the cream on
and you said it didn't matter, there
was more cream?"

The Beet as Food.

The beet beats all II is one of the
most valuable of cultivated plants.
The sugar beet is a main source of
sugar and alcohol The large forage
beet supply an excellent food for cat
tie and the red garden varieties pro-
vide savory table vegetables. The
usefulness of this valuable food has
now been increased by the production
of an edible flour from sugar beets.
The desiccation of sliced sugar beets
is practised in Germany on an extern
sive scale. but the product is EN-
ployed exclusively as fodder for cattle.
In Belgium a meal is made from
dried beets. 1t is entirely free from
the distinctive flavor of the beet and
is suitable for cakes, buildings and
pastry AS it contains about 65 per
cent. of sugar it can often be substi.
tuted with advantage for sugar in
somewhat larger quantities.
The processes of desiccation and
grinding not only cost less than the
extraction of sugar, but preserve all
the sugar of the beet, part of which is
rejected in the form of molasses in
the process of sugar making.

Younsster Felt That He Was Alto.
gether Too Well Dressed to Minale
with the Other Boys Of the
Neighborhood

A small boy sat by himself on a
stone wall. Behind the wall, and at
some distance from ii. was an ivy
covered stone house suggesting wealth
and comfort The other houses in the
neighborhood were much more mod
est. and the group of children playing
on the common in front of the stone
house had the cheerfully soiled and
ragged aspect of youngsters whose
parents are not much given to pro-
viding fine clothes for their children
TO play in. But the boy sitting on the
wall evidently belonged to the stone
house. and his garments had a CORE
spending neatness.
Presently lady came out of the
house and moved down the path TO
the sidewalk.
Hello Bobby" she remarked, when
she reached the small boy. "You' seem
to be fiocking to yourself. Anything
the matter?"
Bobby looked up gloomily.

piled, bitterly. That's what's the mat

Clothes! What's the matter with

That's because you're not a boy"
replied Bobby, briefly.
Perhaps it is" agreed his aunt.
But what's the matter with them?
You're quite the best dressed little
boy in the neighborhood."
'Humphi" shifted Bobby. He leaned
toward her confidentially. Don't you
s'pose you could make mamma let me
have a couple of patches-just little
ones?"
Patches? What under the sun do

"Just on my knees" insisted Bobby.
"All the other fellers have patches, or
holes. I've made holes myself in my
knees, but 1t don't do any good.
Mamma always goes and gets me a
new pair of trousers. 1t makes you
feel silly always to have whole pair
when all the other fellers have holes
or patches" He kicked his heels dis
consolately against the stone wall.
"You can't have any fun when
you're different from all the other fell
lers," he added.

your kind" said Aunt Ellen, thought

your mother between us if l stayed to

his hostess. so he went nearer and
drew stool close by her side and
seated himself upon it, thus being able

WAGE WAR ON THE SHARK
People Of the Tropics Have Somewhat
Cruel Way C Dealing with
Oetested Enemy.

For many years the question as to
whether sharks will attack living hui
man beings when in tie water has
been hotly debated By scientists.
sportsmen and laymen IN general
Practically none of the dissenters
lives IN the tropics Put the direct
question TO an inhabitart Of tropical
countries who lives on the seashore
and he viii unhesitatingly reply in
the affirmative.
The average Panamanian would con-
slider the question foolish. The bay on
the Pacific side abounds in sharks.
and none OF the natives will ever take
swim in the deep waters of it. Some
foreigners used to do so until one of
the engineers working on the canal
during the French regime. a young
Colombian named Jules Patterson.
was killed by shark a number of
years ago. When his body was recoy-
cred 1t had been almost entirely
stripped of flesh.
This incident led to a war of renrisal
on the sharks. Many of the natives
are content with simply catching and
killing them. but the favorite method
is called "crucifying." The shark is
hooked and drawn on deck, care be-
ing taken TO see that he cannot use
his terrible mouth for biting. He is
laid down on boards and his fins Sc.
curely nailed thereto in such n wav
that he cannot use them. The tail is
then cut close off. and the unfortunate
animal thrown overheard. He cannot
swim and he cannot steer himself. He
is helpless and the other members of
his own family attack and devour
him

Boston sportsman. who has Just
returned from the Maine woods. tells
of an incident which happened in one
of the small country stores in the
Pine Tree state. Laid up with a cold
one day, and consequently forced to
remain indoors, the hunter went to
the village store in search of some
thing TO read. Robert Browning Re
held as his favorite author. so he
promptly asked the rather elderly
shopkeeper to look over his shelves
and see if he had Brownings works
among small array OF books tucked
away in an obscure corner.
Nope" replied the storeman, run

blueing, backing and whiting, but |
