SeIf-Restraint Valuable.

For want of self-restrain, many men
are engaged all their lives in fighting
with difficulties of their own making,
and rendering success impossible by
their own cross-grained ungentleness;
whilst others, who may be much less
gifted, make their way and achieve
success by simple, patient equanimity
and self-control.-Sam Smiles.

CANT0nMENTS WILL
USE MANY BASEBALLS

If anyone doubts that base
ball is the American national
game, the doubter should take a
look at the plans made by the
commissions on training camp
activities of the army and navy
departments. Every one of the
million and a half men under
training in this country will in
dulge in baseball practice at one
time or another during the pres
ent season.
1t is estimated that approx
mately $4,000 balls will be used
up Officially" in the camp
games in the course of the sea-
son. This figure is arrived at
by estimating that there are
over 400 companies in training
In the various camps, and multi
plying this number by II, which
is the number of baseballs
the training camp commission
is planning to furnish each unit,
in addition to gloves and bats.
Many more of course will be
supplied the men themselves,
and these will bring the number
nearer 10000, it is believed.

LEONARDO DA WINCH. WHO H.,
@- INVENTED TANK AND SUB
BY Henry Wood
Omitted Press =, Correspondent. ]

(Uniteds Press = Correspondent
Rome Dec. 5. tBy Mail Four
hundred years before submarines
and tanks were used in the great
European conflict, both these Instru-
nlents of warfare had been not orly
forseen but actually invented by pro-
hably the greatest all-around genius
the wcrld has ever produced.
Leonardo da Vinci, born in 1852,
is known to the world today princip-
ally as an artist and especially for
his Last Supper and ia Giconda" /"
AS a matter Of fact Leonardo was
equally as great a genius from the
standpoint OF sculpture, architecture,
engineering, invention, canal and
harbor building, music and Just
about everything else which calls
for genius. - =~& q h$
From his writings it is now estab-
lished that he not only invented SUBJ
marines and tanks, but even fors1w
their actual tractical use in precisely
the same manner as the recent war
has demonstrated that they can be
utilized best.
Writing to Leonardo II Moro, Duke
of Milan, relative to his tanks
Leonardo da Vinef had this to say.
II know how to construct covered
indestructibie assaulting cars, carry
ing artillery that will open a way
through the enemy's ranks and
pierce the most solid lines Of defense.
The infantry will follow them with
out difficulty. ~ 49,.
AS to the submarines which he
invented. Leonardo wrote:
.You ask why I have not written
about my means for staying under
water as long at 1t Is possible for you
to stay there without food, why ]
don't publish it and why don't
make 1t public? Simply because Of
the brutal manner in which men
would use this means for assassinat-
ing in the world of the sea, for de-
stroying ships and for sinking them
together with their crews"

HORSES. MAY LOSE THEIR r -

Gently about the city's $5,000,000
Lonesome Trail. zgS.ss.~s - u - ~
1t is the Harlem river speedway,
famous a generation ago as fash
ionable driveway, on which the OBJ
noxious horseless carriages were not
permitted to trespass. In order TO
assure the horses of perpetual i'm
munity from gasoline edors, a law
was put through the state legisla-
ture, forever banning horseless con-
traptions from the speedway.
II The speedway is a beautiful scenic
driveway, extending for several miles
along the Manhattan bank Of the
Harlem river The cost up it's up
keep is very considerable. ss.
Recently an unfeeling citizen, hay-
ing observed that the driveway was
absolutely deserted, drove his motor
car ON it. He was arrested and
fined. A supreme court upheld the
sentence. Statisticians who have
taken up. lonely watches along the
speedway- assert that as many as
three persons have been known to
ride hoseback on the expensive road
way in one day, during the last
years, while horse in harness has
been seen passing as. many as fifty
eight times withinS twenty-four
hours. Most of these horses are
racers, being exercised by their tend
ers.
Motorists want the speedway
.opened to motor traffic, like any
other parkway or drive. They claim
the city is not getting it's moneys
worth for it's $5.000,000, and that
the road members, almost the sole
moving figures along the long stretch
of highway, are having entirely too
easy a life. They are planning an
appeal to the legislature.
