E. c. Winters of III Greenwood
avenue is certain that a Ford for a
Cadillac Eight is not a fair trade
particularly when the Cadillac Eight
belonged to him and the trade was
made without his knowledge the
police and sheriff's force are tele-
phoning and telegraphing in every di-
rection today trying to locate the big
car
Some time during last night his
garage in Potwin was broken into. the
big car was rolled out by hand to the
street and taken away. Mr.. Winters
discovered the loss this morning when
he went to the garage to run the car
out He notified the police, also
Stephenson & Webb who carried a
theft policy on it.
A short time later the police found
a cara Ford-standing beside the
road out on Sixth avenue south of the
Winters number attached to it. The
police Immediately connected it with
the disappearance of Winters car.
From Oklahoma.
Officer Morgan made search
through the Ford and found papers
in it indicating that it belonged to an
Oklahoma preacher-James Catlin of
Atoka, Oklahoma There was mail in
it addressed to the preacher and a
Sunday school paper was found bear
ing the name of "Darrah Catlin," evil
IDENTITY one of the children in the Catlin
family.
The police are proceeding on the
theory that the thief or thieves stole
the Catlin car in Oklahoma, drove it
to Topeka. stole the Winters car,
switched the numbers, ditched the Ok
lahoma. car, and continued on their
way in the big Cadillac Eight.
A telegram was sent to Catlin today
notifying him of the recovery of the
car and asking him for the number of
his Oklahoma license. This number
might be of material benefit in locat-
ing the Winters car. Apparently the
big car is decorated with the Okla
homa license tag.
The Winters car is a 1916 Model So,
eight-cylinder Cadillac touring car and
the manufacturers number is 21449.
1t was well supplied with gasoline and
oil and ready for an extensive trip. Mr..
Winters is in the gasoline and oil

with their relatives for fifteen min

That was preliminary 70 the filing

MUSIC GIVES POWER

"a musical instrument in a home is,
next to the Bible and the mothers
knee, the greatest civilizer."
Who it was said this 1 cannot now
recall. But whoever said it stated a
truth which parents should take 10
heart.
Most of US give little thought to the
civilizing influence of music. Most of
us, for that matter, fail to appreciate
that music not only helps to civilize
men, but also helps to give them i'm
proved health and greater power
AS healing agent music has long
been made use of by wise physicians
1t IS especially potent in nervous and
mental diseases.
In hospitals for the insane music is
today a recognized aid in treatment
Many and remarkable are the ac-
counts of its remedial influence.
And it has great preventive as well
as curative value.
Even if he cannot play or sing him
self, the lover of music has only TO in

mechanical player in order to be as

the tension of modern life.
Listening to Wagner, to Beethoven,
to Chopin, to Mozart or any of the

gets his cares and worries in the sub
Unity of the emotions their music
music calls forth.
1t is in this emotional appeal that
music is of unsurpassed value as a
civilizing, power-developing agency. If
only for its influence on the emotions,
every child should be taught early in
life to know and love music.
AS President G. Stanley Hall, ad-
dressing the National Education asso-
citation, once pointed out:
The prime end of musical educa-
ton in the grades is to train the senti-
ments. to make children fee; nature
religion, country, home, duty and all
the rest, to guarantee sanity of the

And President Hall added:
| Il would have a mechanical PLAYER

a moral and aesthetic justification, and

increases his efficiency in his owr

Kansas Motorists Have No
Use for the Chauffeur"
Only 573 Registered Experts
Among 10000 Cars in State.
WHOLE FAMILIES DRIVE EN-
First It's Father, Then Mary
and Bud-FinaIIy Mother.
No Room to Waste in Front
Seat for Drivers.

Obstruction of the scenery by the
anterior end of chauffeur's head may
be popular with Eastern automobile
owners but it won't pass in Kansas.
Figures compiled in connection with
the taking of the state decennial cen
sus by ]. c. Mohler, secretary of the
state board of agriculture, show that
the hired driver is a rare appendage
to Jayhawker motor cars.
The average Kansas motor car own
err learns to drive his machine long
before he buys it. Suspicion that a
new prospective automobile buyer has
been located is passed about rapidly
and after Is or 20 statesmen have
painstakingly explained the working
arrangement of their cars, the pros
pective purchaser has been endowed
with enough information to qualify as
an expert mechanician.
Bringing Up Mother.
Following mastery of a dozen or
more cars by the head of household,
! the wise father paves the way for
courses of instruction for other men,
bers of his family. When the car fin
ally is purchased, a chauffeur is al
most as necessary as an extra horn, it
appears from the tales of local auto
agents.
The chauffeur is particularly out of
place in homes where the son bats
we'll with the neighDorhood bellies.
| Moonlight tours along broad paved
! highways or country roads are not
| journeys where hired automobile mot
ormen have a place.
| Few local physicians employ chauf-
| feurs. The average doctor grasps his
mericine chest, losses it into his ma
| chine, and tears out. diminutive
/ red cross above the radiator indicates
| that speed laws have no hold on that
car.
| Business Men Enjoy 1t.
| The majority of Kansas business
and professional men take keen de-
light in acting as their own chauf-
| fe.1rs On occasions of state, when
guests of the family appear. the
chauffeuring job usually is passed on
to the son. Not infrequently, too, Jay
/ hawker daughters take their turn at
/ the wheel. And innumerable smart
young men rapidly learn where these
| feminine car owners are to be found.
OF so little value is the chauffeur re-
garded in Kansas that while there are
more than 10000 motor cars regis
tered at the automobile department of
| the secretary of state, only 572 persons
are listed as professional motor car
drivers or chauffeurs.
OF the bare 500 professional drivers,
1 Wyandotte county has the greatest
number with 136, the report shows.
while Shawnee, with "A chauffeurs list
ed, is third. Montgomery has Sc pro-
! feSSionaI motor car drivers, and Leav-
enworth county has %, according to
i the report In a number of counties
| throughout the state there are less
/ than five chauffeurs listed, while 35
counties are altogether chauffeurless.
