FOOL TRICK" RESULTS
IN DAMAGE TO CAR

Shortly before IL O'Clock. midnight.
last night, an alarm Of fire was sound
ed, which was due to a fool trick of
a colored man driving a Ford car.
The chauffeur. and party in the car
were supposedly from Baltimore, and
refused to give their names. The man
driving the car. stopped the machine
in front OF the Capital Garage, West
street. got out and lighted match to
see If there were enough gasoline in
the car He found there was, since
what was in the tank exploded from
the lighted match. and soon the car
was in blaze. The top was burned
of and other damage done. but the
fire was put out by the firemen be-
fore the entire Ford car was consum-
ed. There was enough car left foI
the party TO proceed on its way. minus
the top. after the fire.
A curious incident OF the burning
car was the party of colored people
had with them a little dog which also
caught on fire and ran across the
street with its tail in flames.

TURNING MARINES
INTO GHOSTS WAS
NOT AN EASY JOB

A method OF Transforming Marines
into ghosts has been discovered at
last This has nothing to do with
the late war in which the majority
of the men of the corps were busily
engaged in Transforming Germans into
spectres. By this new method the
marine who takes on the ghostly APP,
pearance remains alive and well
throughout the process.
A new war play, which will soon be
produced in the New York theatres
has in its cast several actors who
play the parts of Marines at the front
in France In order TO carry ont the
plot, the men must be transformed
into ghosts on the stage before the
eyes of the audience.
The producers, after many expert
ments, were in despair when Quarter
master Sergt. Lyman Fuller, of the
Marines, came to their rescue. He
suggested that the Marine uniforms
be reproduced in a changeable silk OF
a steel-blue color on which calcium
lights could be played. These silk
suits were worn under the real uni
forms, which were tailored so that
they could be ripped off in a few sec
onds, leaving the men in their ghost
ly clothing. 1t was a complete sue
cess, and now the play can be put
on with a scene the like Of which
has never before been produced.

A tractor wheel designed to give
maximum traction with minimum road
damage. first built by Italian engi-
'neers. is described in Popular Me-
chanics Magazine for November. Es-
sentially the traction element consists
of number. usually II. of fiat steel
pads. held against the wheel rim by
individual coil springs hung from the
hub. Each of the pads is fitted with a
wedge shaped fiange which enters the
rim between rollers. so that there is a
roller in each space between adjacent
pads The rollers transmit the driv-
ing power to the pads, which are free
to follow the inequalities of the road
surface as they rock back and forth
on the arc of the wheel periphery.

"BACk TO THE REPUBLIC"

Harry T. Atwood. in his book,
Back to the Republic" and i'll
the public speaking he has been
doing on this topic, has urged a
return in theory and practice to
the form of democracy our Con
stitution provides the expression
of popular will by choice of rep
resentatives. 1t seems possible
to see trend toward such a re
turn III practicc-We have never
abandoned the theory-in the
conduct Of the elections Just
passed throughout the nation.
People have voted in good mum
bcrs; parties have stood clearly
for certain issues, and on such
stands have either won or lost ;
there has been everywhere evi-
dencc of intelligent interest that
has not made a clamor but has
gone to the ballot box to regis
ter lis will, This is in its way 4
move Back to the Republic"
Some time ago William Barnes
of New York argued that what
would really help most to unite
the nation politically and restore
pertinent and Illuminating dis
cussion was a return to import
ance OF the party platform, OF the
party code of principles, the
party organized to back plat
form and principles, rather than
men left to make their own plat
forms and principles.
As has been often pointed out,
the American system OF govern
ment is and must be party sys-
TEN. 1t began as such and con-
tinues as such. Candidates are
made by parties, save in the ex-
ccptional cases that go them
selves to prove the rule, and their
campaigns are conducted by
party organizations. The vast
majority of voters, when the final
ANALYSIS is made. are either Dem
ocrats or Republicans, and when
conditions call for party line
up, they array themselves with
one or the other national party.
\ fair and open primary for the
nomination of candidates; an in
telligent discrimination between
party platforms and party prin-
ciplcs. and an answering dis
charge on election day of the duty
to vote-these will bring us
back to the Republic" using the
term to designate the true form
of American government.
