THE AUTOMOBILE

We are not among those who class
the automobile industry as nonessen-
tial. 1t is probably true that some
people would be better OF without
machines, but 1t is also true that 1t is
none of our business whether they
are or not, says the Salt Lake Tribune
They buy them for pleasure or busi-
is their right to have such means of
travel il they can make the necessary
arrangements with the dealers. We
have been going full speed ahead ever
since the signing of the armistice and
we may be compelled to slow up in
the course of time. Yet 1t Is barely
possible that, owing to our excellent
financial condition and our foreign
trade prospects, we shall continue to
prosper and be able to enjoy life as
we go along. We should be thrifty.
of course, and put something by for
a rainy day. At the same time. we
believe in enjoying life aswe 60 along
and keeping some of our gains In cir
culation. We hope for a readjust-
ment of prices and wages. but we
have no desire to return to the good
old days" when labor was cheap and
cornbread and calico dresses the rule.
This may be reasonable when we
consider the vast amount of advice
that has been ladled out to a long
suffering public. If so, we cannot
help it. 'All work and no play makes
Jack dull boy" and we have no
sympathy with those who eternally
preach economy in order that we may
be laying up treasures in heaven by
making earth the most dreary abid-
ing place imaginable. The automo-
bile is the greatest modern source of
pleasure and we indorse the follow
ing statement by E. C. Stokes, former
Governor of New Jersey:
Next to the church. there is no
factor in American life that does so
much for the morals of the public as
does the automobile. Formerly the
pleasures of life divided the family.
The father had one avenue of recre-
alton, the mother another, the chill
dren another. To-day our roadsides
are crowded with family picnic par
ties, who carry their lunches with
them and who take their outing as q
unit. Any device that brings the
family together as a unit in their
pursuit of pleasure is promoter of
good morals and yields a beneficent
influence that makes for the good of
American civilization. If every fam
lily in the land possessed an automo-
bile, family ties would be closer and
many of the problems of social un-
rest would be happily solved. The
banker who says that a device of this
kind is nonessential possesses a
narrow vision and fails to see the
far-reaching influence 1t has for good.
The automobile is one of the coun-
try's best preachers.
Our voice Is still for thrift, but we
like good things to eat and passably
good raiment. We certainly have no
grudge against a man who lives well
and enjoys taking his family out for
an automobile ride when the days
work Is done.

Washington.-A surprising number
of American-born children are grow

country districts than in the cities ac-
cording to figures made public by the
children's bureau of the department of

Statistics in five states in which the
employment of children is general, it

children between IA and 16 more than
one-fourth could not read or write
their names leglbly. Nearly 10 per
cent have never gone beyond the first
grade of school and considerably more
than half were in the fourth grade or

SCORE KILLED BY
QUAKE N MEXICO
SEISMIC DISTURBANCES FELT
THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE
REPUBLIC Is REPORT.
Villages Destroyed and Heavy Casual
ties Have Resulted, People Fleeing
From Their Falling Homes in
Search for Safety.

Mexico City. Scores of persons
have been killed by violent earth
quake which occurred in many parts
Of Mexico Saturday night. The cen
ter of the disturbance is believed to
have been near the volcano of Orizaba.
The villages of Teocelo and CouZe-
tlan, were virtually destroyed by the
earthquake and heavy casualties have
resulted, according to late press re
ports received here.
Incomplete press reports indicate
that the state of Vera Cruz suffered
more than any other section, although
seismic disturbances were felt
throughout the entire republic. Adj
vices from Cordoba say that thirty
dead have already been accounted for
IN San Juan Coscomatepec. where
many houses were destroyed. There
are unconfirmed reports of a similar
catastrophe in Huatusco.
At Jalapa further north, fifty vic
tins of the earthquake have been
counted, including numerous dead.
Lack of communication with the
OllltT SlDtll tDWUS anu NlildStS III iiic
theatre of the disturbance make even
an approximate estimate of the cas-
ualties impossible.
The earthquake caused great alarm
in the large cities. Marine disturb
ances have occurred off Vera Cruz
city, and there were some casualties
there, although the number is not
known, with considerable destruction
of property.
The panic in the capital among the
ignorant classes was indescribable.
a1any of the people fled from their
BONES and flocked to the churches.
The Indians in the suburbs hurried to
the shrine of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
From Toluca, Cuernavaca and Pueb-
la come similar stories of panic
Slight damage was done to homes.
Panic reigned in various cities ana
villages in the state of Vera Cruz,
where the people left their homes anu
spent the night in the streets.
The damage in Mexico City Was lim-
tied to cracks in the larger buildings
There were no deaths and none of the
inhabitants were injured.
