This was the Volstead- inspired
situation revealed at the annual glass,

bition which has just closed here.
Three hundred manufacturers Of
glassware were represented with ex.
hibits showing q variety of articles
in glass for home uses, but the dain-
ty liqueur containers that formed q
glittering part Of previous showings
were missing.
AS Allied arms drove Germans out

sideswiped an important branch of
the glass industry. forcing 1t into 9TH

guard of the vanishing army OF in

Manufacturers representatives at
the exhibit showed slight interest at
the mention of such glassware as
depends upon Liquors for its useful
ness. Quite unanimously they de-
clared that the demand Is insignifi-
cant. A few wine glasses. an occa-
sional set of goblets are all that are
being sold. Tankards have disap.
peared completely.
Prohibition has not affected the
prosperity of the glass industry, how
ever, despite the deep inroads it cut,
exhibitors declared. Manufacture
ers who formerly supplied glassware
essential to liquor consumption have
turned their attention to making
other tableware which Is proving
fully as remunerative. they said.

, Cars or moderate speed suburban cars
should 1t all times have the track in
front Of them illuminated for a SUI.
ncient distance ahead to detect any
obstruction on the track in sufficient
time TO bring the car to a standstill. !"
says the statement of the Public
Utilities Commission.
1T has also been the custom or in
structions to motormen on many
roads In our State IN operating cars
equipped with incandescent DINNER
lights. when the track is at the side
OF the highway. to turn off the high
power light and turn on their DINNER
light on approaching team or auto
mobile. when In their judgment this
can be done without danger.
This commission have never felt
that this was an entirely safe prac-
tice. and numerous accidents have
resulted In which cars have struck
teams or automobiles on the track
while these high power headlights
have been turned off. It frequently
happens that the automobiles will
not dim his light as an exchange of
courtesy. and the glare of the auto
mobile headlights will dazzle the
motorman's eye. AS set forth, the
incandescent feature Of this type of
headlight 10 practically useless for
Illuminating the track. and does not
furnish light enough to safely oper-
ute q car in motion.
1.-THE commission feels that electric
, railway companies in our State
should equip their cars with efficient
headlight equipment owing to the
greatly increased safety which such
equipment provides.
"Where the right Of way of a rail-
way company parallels a highway
used generally by automobilists. it is
even more important that the head
Night equipment used hy the railway
company should be such that the
lights Of the automobiles will not
kill the illumination of the electric
car lights and thus put the motorman
In darkness.
1.-THE commission is contemplating
issuing an order to all street or
electric railway companies in our
State to furnish headlight that will
give a pickup distance of different
speed cars AZ follows:

A EAILAC1ous DOCTRINE.

This demand" for higher pay and shorter
hours OF work Is bottomed on a fallacious doc
trne. Man attains his highest estate only whom
ho is employed. The idea that employment
is a curse or hardship is absurd. No man ever
attained independence success IN any under
taking who measured his efforts by the clock.
That ls n conceivable employment OF slave
who willingly admits his servltude. and who
feels no ambition TO rise above his menial po-
siton. But even q slave, would he gain his
freedom and become n free man. must needs
embrace his opportunities without regard TO tho
passing hours
The race Of life is TO the swift He who runs
by the clock will stop before the end OF the
course is reached and will lose even though
endowed by. nature with superior speed. The
parable OF the talents teaches us the great
secret OF success. 1t means, II It means any
thing at all 10 men of these times, that man
is required TO develop fully whatever genius
he possesses; TO embrace whatever opportuni-
ties may present Themselves.
The demand for shorter hours and higher
pay Is. In effect, demand TO return to the days
of feudasm and bondage; II IL a willing ac-
ceptance OF a position OF inferiority in society
ana should have abiding place In the thoughts
OF freemen undor form Of government such az
ia ours
Look about you. consider the frequent ex-
amples OF mon who have surmounted difficult
ties raising themselves to positions of inde-
pendence while their fellows remain stranded
in servlle medlocrlty. and note what their
methods were. II In true that all men cannot
rise 10 common level Of prmacy, but that
does not at all affect the wisdom OF every man
fixing his eyes on n high objective and seeking
TO attain II by individual effort.
