90 TO IT

The attorney general may have
read the Reflector editorial tDf q few
days ago urging the officers to en-
force the automobile license law.
Anyhow he has ordered something
done. Easy as it is to detect the
car with an old license 1t Is past ~
Outstanding why there should be any
trouble about 1t. Two cars stood for
hours on the street yesterday, both
with old tags-and here 1t is nearly
three months past the years begin
ming. Officers seem to dread to en-
force motor laws. Cars run all over
town nights without rear lights,
with only one front light. with no
lights, with glazing headlights-and
only at long intervals is anybody
arrested. II the officers would en-
force the law strictly every time they
find a violation we should have few
er accidents and people would learn
to live up to traffic laws which are
made for the protection Of the pub
lie.

creasing in Kansas while the pri-
vate plants are increasing, until now

former Is serving total Of only 1856
towns, while the latter serves total
Of 1913 towns In tho state.

cipal plants and only one private
plant were discontinued. At the
present time fully G5 per cent Of the
states population is supplied with
electricity-the population reached
by municipality owned plants num-
bers 437,621 and the population
reached by private plants is G71, 654.
It is the lines Of the private plants

served by private plants. While fig
ures are not definite, approximately
20 per cent of the municipality own
ed plants have been discontinued
during the past -four years.

and their daily output Is rapidly in
creasing. There are 80 municipal
plants purchasing current from pri-
vate plants and only three private

marked by cheerfulness, patience and
gratitude, revealing plainly that her
life had been committed to the keep
ing of Him, who alone is able to sus-
tain in every time of suffering and

ing Snsoothed Out
Perplexities of the income tax law
are gradually disappearing, accord
ing to H. H. Motter, federal internal
revenue collector for Kansas. Less
confusion existed in the filing of re-
turns this year and fewer errors
were made than ever before, Motter
said.
"The credit for this change is due
principally to the newspapers" the
revenue collector declared. II am
preparing a letter to all newspapers
in Kansas thanking the publishers for
the liberal publicity given to income

Child Suicides

Among the suicide figures compiled
for 1921 by the Save Life League
it is horrifying to find 858 children
The youngest Of these was five years
old. A condition Of society which
leads almost 1000 children to destroy
themselves in single year, in the
most fortunate and one of the most
enlightened countries Of the world
needs much consideration.
Too few properly balanced meals;
too much unwholesome mental stimu-
lation and not enough bodily building;
too many entertainments and not en-
ough mud pies; too many subjects in
school to permit the mastery of any
with consequent worrying over failur-
es;; too many parents lacking self-con-
troll and not enough old-fashioned
fathers and mothers; too much whirl-
ing about in automobiles and too little
wholesome home life, too much jazz
and not enough Sunday school-all
these things have helped to pile up
this pitiful toll.
Children have suffered from all the
disruption of the war, no less than
their elders; more so in many ways
because they had no philosophy OF
