A CHALMERS stockchassis has broken
the 24-hour stock chassis record of
1919 miles in ID hours, which has been

This supreme achievement in motor
car endurance was attained when Joe
Dawson drove Chalmers Speedster

This marvellous performance was ac-

This is the fastest time ever made by
motor for such distance. The fastest

fever. and cancer. nine OF scarlet
fever. 201 of measles. four OF chicken
pox. twelve OF pneumonia, seven Of
tuberculosis. and seven OF bronchitis.
The requiring OF these monthly
morbidity reports from the state
board OF health is a new feature in
augurated by the bureau OF public

tons adopted by the tenth annual

thorities with the public health SER
vice held In Washington June /, 1912,

Ing from the war. II is really in line
with the procedure adopted by the

ganiZation and direction OF everything
affecting the security and welfare of

and former commissioner of charities
and corrections under the administra-

for Prohibition in Ohio this year. In
offering his services, Mr.. Winning
authorized the publication Of the fol-
lowing:
Thirteen years of experience in
the Department of Charities and Cor
rection, and in the Juvenile Court, con-
vinces me that there can be no real
progress as long as we have the liquor
traffic to contend with. Therefore, the
first thing to do is to remove the sa-
loon. To do this might make the posi-
tion now hold unnecessary, for two
thirds of the delinquency among chill
dren can be traced to the saloon, but
for the good of the children l shall
help to bring this condition about"

Wet Missouri Makes Loan.

st. Louis.-The Governor Of Mis-
souri, came to st. Louis recently to
arrange for loan Of 100000 to tide
the state over the financial breakers.
This action was made necessary, not
withstanding the fact that Missouri
receives large sum Of revenue each
year from her $500 saloons. Mis-
souri's next door neighbor, Kansas,
has not had saloons and liquor reve-
nue. for thirty-fye years, and does
not owe anybody dollar and her
banks are full of money, and she was
able to ship $50,000,000 to New York
bankers during the panic of 1907. It
does not look as If saloons are much
Of an asset to Missouri.
