Put Body Above Soul.

In 3O00 and 4000 B. C. the Egyptians
believed in life after death and in
a day of resurrection belief brought
out of Egypt by the Children of Israel
and handed down by them to all sub
sequent Christians. No biblical scholar
now wholly disbelieves this. But the
Egyptian belief was materialistic
rather than spiritual; a tenet that took
little or no account of the soul. The
body was the thing. Hence mummies
and statues in tombs.-Exchange

Some Very Rars cnins

Some United States coins are very
rare. There are only three of the gold
eagle of 1898 in existence. The gov

made in the first United States mint,

with tiny silver spot was issued.
Perhaps none of these is in existence.

The past week of concentrated effort toward estab-
fishing greater safety for Washingtonans has been
cessful in that il has fixed in the public mind the vital
need OF cooperation and action "No Accident Week"
but the opening broadsde of the fight which must b.
carried on until Washngtons streets safe for her

The OF the motor car is increasing daily. 1t
makes possible the efficient operation Of modern business
and is essential to the transportation Of people apace
with the times in this city in every other. With the
growth Of traffic and the increased difficulty Of traffic
control due to the growth of motor transportation 1t
has been customary i'll other cities to provide adequate
Of protecting both motorists and pedestrians from
traffic accidents Control of traffic in Washington is SO
handicapped to OF horse-car days in spite of the
fact that the District officials doing all nj their power
To for the public. 1t is simply case OF master
workmen without tools-they know what to do and when
do it, but true traffic safety cannot be built without
fairly paid and equipped police force
Until the powers that be" make possible the EN-
poyment and proper equipment Of police force suf
cient to enforce traffic laws, the people of Washington
will continue TO pay the toll exactcd by traffic condi
tons beyond control.

District officials the reckless driver is getting away

be converted by his conscence-he can only be
reached by fortified of the law and punishment to

part of the who in frontier days jabbcd his spurs

Traffic safety will never be gained until the irresponsible
of every Washingtonan to carry the work of "No

FORD FACTORY MAKES
5000 STARTERS DAILY
Department Takes Lead After
Ten Months of Operation.

Ten months ago the Ford Motor
Company was not manufacturing
electric starters; today the output
OF its starter departn NJ is greater
than that OF any other manufactured
of electric starting devices in the
world. Its nearest competitor max rs
1000 day, whereas the Ford Com
pany's output is fast approaching the
three thousand mark, 2,Ss1 already
having been manufactured In one day.
The Ford starter--and generator.
for IL is really two separate units-is
not the result of a new idea or Of a
sudden decision. More than eigat
years ago Henry Ford's vision saw
the need, and his electrical engineers
were instructed TO begin experiment
ing. After seven years of constant
research, which took into considera-
ton the many different climates in
which the Ford car is used, together
with the factors of size and weight
and an adaptibility to quantity pro-
duction, twenty-three trial starters were
built. These were tested In many
different ways. Mr.. FORD himself
used one on his car for year. Still
the engineers continued their expert
ments and improvements.
Then came the order from the Gov
eminent for 10000 three-ton tanks.
each one OF which was to be equipped
with two synchronized Ford motors.
A starter was essential, so the one
now being installed on Ford cars was
evolved. But, only one starter and
generator was used to turn over the
two Ford motors in each tank. jan

pany began equipping enclosed cars

Threatens 70 hold-up The work Of the
Federal government in improving the
Chesapeake and Delaware canal.
This provision holds that adj new
work on which the actual cost is 10
per cent. higher than the original esH-
mate must be abandoned. The esbi-
mates for the new work on the canal
were made by the engineer Of the WI
mingion district several years ago. Since
that time The cost OF materials, labor
and other items has nearly doubled
This same condition applies 10 nu-
merOus other waterway projects
throughout the entire country.
Both the Delaware Senators, Or. l..
Heisler Ball and Josiah o. WolcOtt, aud
Representative Caleb r. Layton, are
working TO eliminate the 40 per cent
provision from the rivers and harb0rs
act and from what has been learned
from Washington, are confident they
viii succeed.
Colonel Jervey said today that while
he was disappointed in the delay which
would ensue from the provision in
carrying forward the canal improve
ments, nevertheless, he had sufficient
funds 20 so ahead with surveying and
