nance Providing Severe Maxi
mum Penalty for Violation

Children Prohibited From Driv-
ing Motor Cars on Streets

The city commission last night
amended and passed the traffic ordi-
a(lnce introduced by Qommiss ioner

a stiff penalty clause, and discretion
permitted by the magistrate IN the
severity of the penalty. 1t Is planned,
it is said, to enforce the new ordi-

One of the chief features OF the new
ordinance is that giving the driver on
the right the right-of-way at intersec-
tions. a new method now being used
in the larger cities instead of the old
method north and south" or least
and vest right.of-way. The method
is said to have REDUCED the number
OF accidents in large cities material
ly. The section reads: "Hhe driver or
person in charge of vehicle, on ap-
preaching street intersection shall
have his vehicle under perfect con-
troll. and the vehicle on the right, un-
der ordinary conditions, shall have
the right-of-way." 5.
The penalty for violation of the or
dinance was fixed at fine of not
more than 500 or Imprisonment not
more. than 60 days. Among the pro-
visions of the ordinance sare: speed
limit 20 miles, approaching intersec-
tions II miles; cars must be equipped
with brake so that it can be stopped
in so feet while going 20 miles an
hour. No one under the age of 16
shall drive motor vehicle on the
city streets. Mufflers mus. be used
ard lamps shaded. Autos shall not be
parked in front of or within rs feet
of either side of the entrance to a
theater or public building. Autos must
not pass street car rtopped to take on
or discharge passengers. Cars may
not be parked on streets, avenues,
alleys or public grounds Within con-
gested district (fire limits) for longer
period than ~ hours. Persons may
eso1s streets in congested district
only at intersections, a provision
against "joy-walking." Persons may
not play in the congested district. Au-
tos following fire apparatus may not

MOVES Altogether TOO FAST
Writer Makes Complaint About Life
That Will Be Echoed by Many
No Longer Young.

Here is another new one already
started and even on the second day we
can seem to feel the finish just ahead
Of US, F. II. Young writes in Provi-
dence Journal We shall have just
time to save up for the summer Vaca-
ton and then for another period of
scrimping preparation for Christmas
and first thing we know they will be
handing around the 1923 calendars.
That is really the most alarming as
pect of life, after one gets to be about
so old. 1t is this Internal and relent-
less speed of the passing years which
steadily becomes speedier. 1t is only
youth that is able to worry about love-
measuring machines, the erratic con-
duct of the equator and the north pole,
the speed of the moon and the speed OF
turtles and all these contemporaneous
scientific matters.
And yet, science is just wonderful,
isn't it? In Toronto the American AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of Sci
ence has just received report from
professor at the University OF Wis
consin which reveals new speed rec
ord. The champion racing turtle in an
event which included 1853 entrants fin
ished the mile in three years eleven
months and nineteen days. All we can
get out of this is the thought that we
would like to have life move as slowly
as it does for turtle.

IN CHRONIC 9 STATE OF FEAR
Observing Author About Right When
He Describes Conditions Under
Which All Live.

In his book, ''The Conquest of Fear"
Basil King says:
"Look at the people you run up
against in the course Of few hours.
Every one is living or working in fear.
"The mother is afraid for her chill
dren.t The father is afraid for his
business. The clerk is afraid for his
job. The worker is afraid Of his boss
or his competitor.
"There is hardly a man who is not
afraid that some other man will do
him bad turn. There is hardly
woman who is not afraid that things
she Graves may be denied her, or that
what she loves may be snatched away.
"There is not home or an Office or
a factory or school or church in
which some hangdog apprehension is
not eating at the hearts of the men,
women and children who go in and
out.
II am ready to guess that all the
miseries wrought by sin and sickness
put together would not equal those we
bring on ourselves by the means which,
perhaps, we do least to counteract.
"We are not sick all the time; we
are not SHINING all the time; but all
the time all of us-or practically all OF
us-are afraid of some one or some
thing"

Ct AD. HAND FROM I. I0HN -
How Defeated but Still Great Pugilist

Theodore Dresser, writing in the

ences as a reporter in st. Louis. One
Of his assignments was an interview
with John Z. Sullivan:
Jaw, haw! haw! haw!' I can hear
him even now when I asked him my
favorite question about life, his plans,

He wants to know about exercise
Yuh're all right, young fella, kinda

newspaper men are all all right, to me.
I'm for 'em. Exercise? What think?
Haw! Haw! Write any id thing
you please, young fella, and say that
John L. Sullivan said so. That's good
enough for me. If they don't believe
it bring it back here and I'll sign it for
yuh. But I know it'll be all right;
and 1 won't stop to read it neither.
That suit yuh? Well, all right. Now

say I didn't treat yuh right, cause l

Amono Immortal Writers.

The year 1921 was so taken up by
interest in the Dante sexcentenary that
most persons failed entirely to note
the fact that the year was the four
hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the
death of another of the worlds i'm
mortals, Thomas a Kempis, the au-
thor Of the Limitation of Christ"
quarter Of a century or so ago
a discussion with regard to the worlds
greatest books was precipitated by an
ingenious London editor who asked the
question: IF you were to be marooned
on a desert island for life and could
take only a dozen books with you,
what books would you select?" In the
lists of answers Dante and Kempis
invariably occurred, in fact KEN
pis was omitted from almost none
of the lists of university men, and was
included by many scientists, even Hulk
ley himself selecting it.

Gifts of the Ocean.

AS soon as the season ends, the
beach combers get busy on all the
beaches of the famous summer re-
sort, says a New York correspondent.
One beach comber observed was carry
ing a silk umbrella filled with jewelry
and another half filled with coins. He
explained that the rain had aided him
in detecting the presence Of the jew
elry and coins in the sand. For years
beach combing at Rockaway has been
a fall industry. Hundreds of persons
frequently take part in the search and
discover many valuable articles lost
by summer visitors. Last year so
numerous were the combers that the
supports under some sections of the
pavilions and hotels were weakened as
the result of their activities and the
police had to patrol the beach in an
effort to check the undermining of
buildings. :.

Of Interest to Bee Keepers.

Keep large, long-tongued bees, adj
vises J. H. Merrill, of the Kansas State
Agricultural college. He has found
that the bees with the longest tongues
and the greatest body weight bring
home the most honey. TO the Ameri7
can Association of Economic Ento-
mologists' meeting in Toronto he de-
clared it is possible to tell which col
ony of bees in a beeyard will collect
the most honey during summer by
measuring the tongues, the amount Of
nectar, and obtaining the weight of
forty bees from each colony in the
spring.

maxim Gorky" a Pseudonym.

Maxim Gorky," who was reported to
be on his way to England on a visit to
H. G. Wells, but is still held up by the
Bolshevist authorities on the frontier,
is Ale2ei Pyeshkof, the poet and
chronicler of the pariahs and vaga-
bonds of Russian society.
"Gorky'' means "bitter.' The full
name, Maxim Gorky," may, perhaps,
be read to mean the "bitterest of the
bitter" The pseudonym effectively
symbolizes Pyeshkof's attitude toward
life, for his fiction is the distilled es-
sence of the disappointed.
He was not at first Bolshevik, and
he seems only to have joined the
Bolshevist ranks under pressure.
Given his choice between low diet and
high Office. hee preferred the latter,
which. is one, happily; that does not
require him to take any active part
in the preparation of atrocities. -Liv-

Milk Bottle Thermometer.

A North Woodward housewife, who
lives in a house boasting a back
porch, says she can always tell how
cold it is by the length of the cone
Of frozen milk in the neck of the
bottle she finds on her back porch
every morning. BY comparison with
a nearby thermometer, she says, she
finds that at about 20 above the cap
of the bottle is barely lifted and the
contents frozen about two inches
down. At II above she found the cap
showed up about two inches and the
milk solid some three inches down.
Seven above. is good for projection
Of "solid" milk some four or five
inches above the bottle neck and the
contents semi-solid throughout. The
bottle of milk thermometer is reliable
only for aboye-zero temperature, as
lower temperatures must be judged by
the curvature of the frozen neck of
cream.-Detroit News.
