After finishing a motor tour from Chicago to Seattle, MT. w. G. Funck, General Manager, Hewitt-Lea-F -Funck Co.,, Seattle, had many interesting ex- periences to relate.
 At one time, while travelling through Montana, he became confused as to the correct route. While at stand still in the road and unable to deter mine the proper course to pursue, he noticed the imprints of Firestone Non Skids in the trail before him.
 Says Mir Funck, "Firestone Non Skids have pulled me out of many a former difficulty, so l believe 1 will follow Jhis trail and see what hap pens."
 For nearly 300 miles he was able to follow the non-skid imprints, which proved a true guide and eventually led him into familiar territory. Fire stones have never failed me yet" af- firms Mr. Funck.

The Convict and His Family.

From the Glohe-Democrat.
 Aside from the disgrace the convict under the present system is punished far less than his innocent family. He has plenty to eat and wear, is com iOrtably housed and his labors are comparatively light But the plight of his family is pitiable. The average convict spent all that he had in the expense of his trial, leaving his fam fly destitute. A sense of shame often causes the wife of convict to flee the community in which she resided and where her needs would have been sup piled. Many families move to Jeffer- son City, to be near the prison. This throws an unfair burden on that city. Then the effect on the convict cannot De good. If he could contribute to his hmlly's support, he would have new Sef-respect and new determination to De law-abiding citizen after his reease. And he would not find his iailily scattered at expiration of his !efm' Every consideration of human 'V urges the speedy adoption of some such system in Missouri.

CENTRAL BANK OF ARK ANSAS
 CANNOT BE USED AS EXAMPLE,
Governor of Texas Writes Secretary of State Hodges for Information About Arkansas State Bank
 "ln Years Gone By"

Little Rock, Sept 26-Leopold Mor- ris, of the Committee on Banks and Banking in the Texas Legislature. has written the Secretary of State for in- formation about the Central State Bank, which he understands this state had "in years gone by"
 Gov. Colquitt has submitted to the Texas Legislature bill for the creat- ion of central state bank with a capital of $20' 900, 900 which ST. 500,000 is to be taken by the state Board of Education for the school fund of the state, now owned by the state. This bill is likely to be acted upon during the next two weeks.
 Secretary Hodges has replied that the experience of Arkansas cannot be used as an example of the success of such banking institution, if history and tradition may be believed. Many years ago there was central bank in Arkansas, but it was ill-starred, and the echoes of its mismanagement and financial weaknesses reverbearted through the state for generations. Gov. Colquitt will have to look else where than to Arkansas for an ex- ample that will aid him in the pass age of his central bank bill

PHYSICIANS MUST MAKE
 REPORT AS REQUIRED BY LAW
Secretary F. B. Young. State Board of Health Addresses Letter to Physicians of State Stating
 that Act Will eb Enforced

Little Rock, Sept 26-Secretary F. $. Young of the State Board of Health is writing the physicians of the state that the penalty is ot be en- forced against those who fail or neglect to make reports to the regis trars of vital statistics, as required by law. The penalty is fine of not less than SD nor more than S1OO. or imprisonment not exceeding sixty ldays, or both. There has been a great deal of negligence among the physicians, and in consequence the re- ports of the Vital Statistics Bereau lack great deal of being complete or accurate.
 Secretary Young's letter follows: Dear Doctor:
 1 am informed that you have failed to comply with the Rules and Regu- lations of the State Board of Health in reporting the various courageous diseases and filing your vital statis- tics as required by Act No. 96, Leg islature of 1913. It is our desire to avoid bringing charges against the physicians who fail to comply with these requirements. Such being our attitude, l am writing you this per sonal letter calling this matter to your attenton. Act No. 96 prescrbes a definite penalty for those who vio- late it's requirements, but l trust it will not be necessary to resort to this means to get you to comply with it. It is our intention to carry on a cam paign of education and persuasion as long as possible, but if it becomes nec- essary we will invoke the full penalty of the law
 A number of Supreme Courts have held that one who violates the require ments of vital statistics codes or who fails to file his vital statistics is guilty of gross negligence and malpractice, and that a civil action for damages would stand against such negligent physician. 1 am sure that you would wish to avoid such action, but your present course lays you open to it. If you would avoid such troubles in the future it would be well for you to comply with the requirements of the law and the Rules and Regulations. l wish you would carefully con- slider this matter and if you have any comments to make upon it, I would be glad to have you write me fully.,I as- sure you that it fs the intention of this office to act with fairness in every way to the practicing physicians of this State, but they must remember that they owe a very definite duty to their clientele and that the courts and the people recognize this duty and are beginning to insist upon it. These re- ports would require but few minutes of time each month and practically no expense. I trust that in the future we may have full and complete re- ports from you each month without the necessity of asking you for them
 Fraternally yours,
 State Registrar of Vital Statistics.

Wibaux, Montana. It is a beautiful
building and we'll arranged to meet
the needs and purposes for which it

two stories high, while the rear is
one story. The first floor contains
the mems room, the reading room and
library, the ladies' rest room, a large
commodious hall which is so arranged
as to be used as a gymnasium. A
fine stage has been built at one end
of this hall. The shower baths, etc.
are also on this floor. The second
floor has the office of the secretary
and the balcony or gallery for the
hall.
