he imagines he can move the miss

part OF his brain that used to

DIALECTS

A play whica or.lgs phoneties
prominently befose the public has
been written by George Bernard
Shaw, the ERgli.a playwright.
As a result, there IS movement
on foot, starting from University
College Of London. for . standard
of pronunciation of the English
language.
It is suggested that yne standard
should be set BY some person OF
good education anc artistic quail
ties, who possesses 4 rsch, clever
voice. Mr.. Forbes-F ober;son, the
actor, is most prominently men
toned. Phonograph records would
be made to establish the standard,
and to be used al = soyt OF court Of
appeals.
Mr.. Shaw says it IS :. shame Ihat
someone did not get the play OF
Hamlet" put down ~ il Is spoken
By Forbes Robertson.
His dialect IS one ihat goes all
over America and mosA Of England
without challenge" Mr.. Shaw ex-
plains. HE speaks with good deal
Of beauty. It would increase the
circulation Of the transcript il you
could manage to say This is the
way that Forbes-Robertson speaks,
and If you speak like that your
social position viii never be chal-
lenged"
It would appear from this that
the advantage OF standard is a
great one for those not numbered
among the four hundred. One could
at least cultivate the dialect OF the
elite, according TO this plan.
But the plan provides Us with nc
assurance that the elite would not
change their intonations and modu'
lations Il they found they were be-
ing copied after.
America Is not in such urgent
need Of a standard as the British
peoples ATE. There were original,
three diaects in Britain-Northum
berland, Midland and Southern
Chaucer diG more than anyone els'

whole country. He used the Mid

Just what is to of this latest transaction re-

that Henry would cause stir in motordom when
he put his foot in the field of high-priced cars.

AUTO OWNERS
STUDY MOTORS
Average Motorist Has Acquir-
ed knowledge Of Engine
Parts.

Since pre-war days the average au.
tomobile owner has developed into
a motor mechanic of no mean ability.
Formerly at the first sign Of trouble,
he drove his car into a garage, say
ing: There's something wrong with
this boat. See II you can fix It," and
go on his way. 1t Is not altogether
the question Of thrift that has
brought about this change. Famili-
arity with various makes and models
and necessary emergency repairs
out on the road have brought to each
owner a knowledge of mechanics and
a desire to know that everything Is
operating correctly.
He has found out, too, that some
times the most expert mechanics
make a slip and forget to tighten a
bolt, or to place a lock washer where
vibration is apt to loosen a nut. Per-
sonal knowledge of the condition Of
his car the owner feels, is worth the
trouble OF attending to II himself.
While every owner does not feel
capable Of doing much mechanical
overhauling on his car. the majority
do care for the fabrication of 1t from
day to day and week TO week. Usu-
ally they have a half dozen differ
ent gallon cans lying around the
garage, partially filled with different
grades and brands of oil and grease,
collecting dirt. littering up the place.
and providing first class material
for a healthy fire.

have been collected win be OF value

Damage and collision insurance has

chances, which would not have been
taken II the driver thought the DAM
age cost had to come out OF his own
pocketbook. ..-.-.....
A case recently came to my atten-
ton where a man was doing foolish
stunts with his car on a wet street.
He was driving his car down this
street at a high rate OF speed ana
then attempting to skid 1t around
the corner. He was able to accom-.
plish the trick to his complete salts
faction for a dozen times. He then
became conceited about the expert
ness OF his handling car and Of.
fered to bet he could do q double
turn on the street. He not only sue
ceeded In doing two turns but five.
And he succeeded In landing In a
ravine after fall of twenty feet.
Then in his assurance that the acci-
dent would cost him nothing, be-
cause of his damage insurance, he
proceeded to demand that the insur-
ance company buy him a new car.
1t did not do 30. and he found out
that there is no insurance written
to cover loss from such foolhardi-
ness.
II It Is necessary to tow In g dam
aged car, keep the car to be towed
as nearly as possible in line with the
towing car. The two cars should not
be tied too close to each other, about
ten feet being good distance apart.
The rope should be attached to the
front of the frame or spring OF the
towed car and to the back Of he
frame of the towing car. II one end
of the rope is tied to the left side of
one car, tie the other end to the same
side of the other car. See that the
gears are not meshed and that the
brakes are released on the rear car.
The man in the towed car must be
careful in rounding corners, passing
cars and going down grades. Def
mite signals should be arranged be
tween the driver of the towed car
and the one doing the towing.

500 MONKEYS USED IN
BATTLE AGAINST FLU"

NEW YORK, Feb. 11.-Five hun
bred monkeys, imported as needed
from South America and Africa,
were used during the last three
years in experiments in which the
new vaccine against pneumonia was
developed, according to DR.. William
II. Park, of the health department.
The monkeys were used as part
of a nationwide campaign Of re-
search work on the subject Of in
fluenza and pneumonia.
Among other things the expert.
ments showed that the invisible,
unidentified organism which causes
"flu" can pass through a stone
wall.
The experiments were conducted
principally by the Public Health
Service in Washington and by the
local health department.

Believing that the proposed tariff
of IS cents a barrel on crude oil, rs
cents a barrel on fuel oil, and the
proposed 81 to So tariff on asphalt if
successful would materially and ad-
versely affect the individual auto
mobile owners OF the country and
add to their already heavy upkeep,
maintenance, and taxation burdens,
the American Automobile Association
has entered vigorous protest
against these proposals.
Speaking in behalf Of the owners
of more than ten million motor
vehicles, the A. A. A. representatives
appeared before the United States
Senate Committee on Finance and
made 1t plain that the organization
would fight to the last ditch any
proposal designed to take any more
revenue from the motor car While
the A. A. A. representatives. went
before the committee, prepared to
combat only q 35 cents a barrel tax
on crude oil, they learned that GER
tain interests were even planning oil
tariff to the extent Of 81 barrel.
In presenting argument against a

The spotlight. an accessory consid-

motorists, is not a light that should

justed so that the rays may strike

operator has not the slightest ex'
cuse for not using It properly.
