The Horoscope
FRIDAY, FEB. 10.

According to the ruling planetary
influences, this bids fair 10 be a day
Of conflicting issues. While there
is some prospect of financial gain
under the benefic attitude of Lunar
10 Jupiter, yet the powerful place
of Saturn may threaten disappoint-
ment, obstruction, delay and care
less use of money. Accordingly, un-
der this aspect the tendency is to
let ones self be robbed and to be
duped by false friends. despite the
fact that the position also makes
one suspicious Under this con-
geries Of stellar forces it may be
said that If matters particularly
mOneys) are handled with extreme
care, they should eliminate TO ad-
vantage, especially since a benefic
aspect of Neptune TO Moon promises
assistance from some hidden source.
Those whose birthday it is should
have an augury for & successful
year. providing they handle their
affairs carefully, avoiding false
friends and lending money cautious

be prosperous and generous.

U. s. SPENDS MORE
ON HOGS THAN BABIES

Washington, Dec. 10.-That the
Federal Government apparently
thinks twice as much of hog as of
a human baby and fifteen times as
much of domestic animals in general
as it does Of infants. is the asser-
ton of Mrs. Maude Wood Park,
chairman of the National League Of
Woman Voters. who is in Washing
ton to urge the passage of the
Sheppard-Towner bill for public pro-
lection of maternity and infancy,
and other legislation for the bene-
fit of women.
In support of her contention, Mrs.
Park points to the Congressional APP
preparations.
Congress last year gave the
Children's Bureau only s36S.160,"
Mrs. Park said. For the same
year more than $4,00O,O0O, was APP
propriated for the work of the Blu
reau of Animal Industry in protect
ing domestic animals, and s446,-
900, Of this amount for the eradica-
ton of hog cholera. While the
eradication of pests is important
work and should receive due con-
sideration the conservation and de-
velopment of child life is of vastly
more Importance"
The United States is wasting lives
Of its mothers and babies, she points
out, as more than $4,000 women
died in child birth last year, in the
United States.

An Mrs. Santa Claus, bet, can

But how does Santa get his mail?-
tha's what I'd like to know
The postman couldn't carry it, I'm
sure;
It's not so easy goin' miles an miles
an miles in snow,
An nothin' like a little pleasure
tour!
Jes' think of all the hundred thous-
and million million tots
That told old Santa what they want
this year;
An even in this town O. ours there's
lots an lots an lots
o. kids that wrote an mailed their
letters here.
There's Johnny Jones that wants
bat, and Jimmy wants a ball.
An Harold Brown an engine that

MORE THAN 5000 KILLED
In Auto Accidents In 1920
Youngstown Heads List

Washington. Dec. 9.-Three thou
sand eight hundred and eight per-
sons were killed in automobile acct
dents, or died as a result of injuries
therefrom during the last year, the
Census Bureau announced here in a
statement offering suggestions for
traffic improvement.
An automobile accident death rate
of al out Of every 100000 OF
population was reported for 1919,
an increase over every year since
1915 when the rate was So and an
increase of 245 in the total number
of deaths over 1918.
Each year it becomes more and
more dangerous for a person to walk
on the streets, the Census Bureaus
Estatemeat said.
The reason usually given, and
probably the correct one, is that the
number of automobiles in use con-
stantly is increasing.
How then shall this ever-in-
creasing danger be lessened? The
obvious remedy is to improve con-
stantly the traffic regulations to
keep pace with the ever-increasing
number of automobiles.
This call for better and better
traffic regulation is not fanciful
one. Everyone is familiar with the
necessity for slow and orderly prog
ress when crowd emerges from
circus tent and, similarly automobile
traffic must be slowed down and
controlled until 1t becomes-safe.
'The 1919 rates for Kansas City,
NO., San Antonio, and Cleveland, all
much lower than for 1918, provide
a ray of hope that we finally are
waking up"
Suggestions made by the Bureau
for Traffic Improvement follow:
Erection at street crossings of
curbed safety islands. which, at the
most dangerous spots. should be
close together. 40
Construction OF additional cross
ings in the middle of blocks. where
automobiles can approach from only
two directions.
Demonstration Of great skill in
driving each machine before grant
ing drivers license for that ma
chine.
Reduction of the speed limit, es-
peciaily at crossings.

Imprisonment. each to have lis place

 Sure enough within few months the price of cotton advanced more than 50 per cent.
 Almost exactly the same condi- tions prevail today as in 1914. We have virtually had panic and tenn porarily there is no cotton market. If we sell now we must virtually give our cotton away. Yet there is little doubt about it that the worst is over and that prices will soon climb back toward normal just as they did after the scare of 1911, :, and as they did in the spring of last year
 Nevertheless, let us remember that until we organize for more eff fectively regulating cotton selling and cotton production, disasters such as those of 1914 and 1920 will
