THE SPECTACULAR DRIVER

Accidents naturally flourish
with the additional number of
cars, for we presume that for
every ten automobiles sold there
is at least one buyer who is 60
ing to show the rest of you fell
lows how to drive like the wind.
And he usually does. You can
see his like every day in the
year (when the roads are good
going through the country like
a double winged bolt OF Hades.
There is no more thought OF
danger in the head Of such men
than there is in a mushroom. He
couldn't conceive the possibility
of an accident with himself at
the tseering wheel if the word
was written in mountain high
letters right across the top OF
the nose and if he did see it he'd
think it a Joke of some kind. He
sees a team ahead of him, but
the thought that the horse might
shy and step into him as he goes
tearing by doesn't come where
he is supposed to harbor com,
mon sense. He sees a bunch OF
cattle, colony of pigs, a socl
ETY. of chickens, a squad of ducks
and he slows up-like thunder.
Now he goes right on and il
is only fool luck that keeps the
brindle heifer from stepping II
front of the car spilling the driv

NO LET-UP IN WAR
AGAINST FLIES
Now Is The Time To Prevent
Swarms In Spring

The war on the house fly must
not stop. The recent ruling by
the Board Of Health requiring the
covering of food products within
the town Of Newark is a matter
of precaution taken to prevent the
few isolated cases of fever that
might occur from that source of
infection.
The killing of flies during the
late summer and fall will prevent
the immense swarms found in the
early summer following. The flies
that exist from Sept. to Nov. Is
are the ones that lay the eggs
which produce millions of flies six
months later.

Special cubte to the Evening Ledosr.
Bv FRANCIS w. HIRST

LONDON, Aug. 5-The drain OF gold
disclosed by yesterdays bank return Is
another indication that money may rise IN
value with corresponding declines In gilt
edged securities. The present tendency may
disappear but It is equally possible that II
may be accentuated by the usual autumnal
demands acting on market heavily laden
with treasury bills.
The Protectionlsts and their new LIBERAL
Imperialst allies are coming to close quar-
ters with the Free Traders. and Bonar
Laws first trial OF his tariff discrimination
plan in favor OF the crown colonies suffered
severely under fire of criticism yesterday.
The debate reminds me that when opposing
Chamberlains tariff reform proposals AS
quith declared there were only two poll
cies-free trade and protection. "All the
rest is fudge" he added.
In official circles there is some talk Of
reciprocal free trade with France after the
war The French Socialist party Is said to
have been converted by the war to free
trade and direct taxation.
The stock markets are dull and are not
assisted by The heavy tone of Wall Street.

combination.
l referred last week to the results of the
war as exht tied in the public budgets and
lists or estimates of casualties. The diff
hculty of plcturing the sums spent Is
prodiglous. A prominent mathematician at
Cambridge has made an attempt to convey
the meaning TO minds which are unaccus-
toned to handle miliors. His illustration
is as follows: "If Adm were still living
and had occupied himself from creation to
the present time in casting fifty soveregns
into the ocean every hour of the day and
night he would not have sunk as much
money as has been expended by this coun-
try in the present war"
