Cut-OutS Wide Open
Trucks of a certain concern in this
city seem to be privileged. They
speed through the city carrying their
heavy loads with cut-outs wide open
making an %unearthly noise, and no
one seems to stop them. They are
engaged in carting all day and they
frequently the same route pass
inG one another going to and fro,
and it is common for the drivers
TO play a salute to one another as
they pass. They seem to think that
they are the only vehicles on the
highway. and that nobody else is
concerned. 1t is fine to see such en-
thusiasm, but it is extremely annoy
ing, to say the least, to have these
big vehicles going through the
heart of the city with c%ut-outs wide
open all day. a word from the police
would put a stop to 1t.

Disease existed on earth long be-
fore man, says DR.. Charles H. Mayo.
He might add that it'll be here long
after man becomes extinct-replaced,
probably, by insect life. The major
lty of diseases are caused by bac-
teria-which are forms of plant life,
parasites struggling to live and null
tiply in our blood and tissues. The
phenomenon, life, is a parasite proc
ess, which is one reason VIC have
poverty and great riches. The med
ical profession has made as much
progress in the last twenty-three
years as in the last twenty centuries,
claims DR.. Charles H.. Mayo, the
famous surgeon. Technically this
may be so. A similar claim can be
set UP for most professions and
trades. But what really counts Is
spiritual progress, and M one claims
decided gain i this direction.
Rather, the world appears to be go

More Than Fine Needed

MOTE lIdh GAAC NNCCAC0
When a person finds 1t possible
to make money by violating the law
| even IL he is caught once in a while
and fined, it is time he law was
| changed so that the punishment
would be more severe. The practice
of dentistry, for instance, is illegal
unless q state examination is passed
and a license is issued. But the
punishment for violating this law is
a fine of 500 for the first offense
and $500 for each succeeding offense.
The practitioner having no license,
there is nothing to be revoked or
taken away from him, and as he
cannot be put in jail, he comes to
look upon the fine that he has to
pay every once in a while when he
is caught as a high license. He runs
his business so that h, can afford
to pay these fines and continue his
illegal practice. There seems to be
no protection for the public in a
case like this. When a man has
been arrested four times on the
same charge, and each time he re-
turns to his Illegal practice, and
when it is practically certain that
he will continue to keep on practic-
ing illegally as long as he has only
to pay a fine when caught, it would
appear as if something more than
fines were needed to prevent the
public being imposed upon.

Laws and Technicalities

In 1850 DR.. William q. Wood
bridge invented a way to make can
nons more accurate by rifing the
barrels. Uncle Sam grabbed his in
vention in the Civil War. For many
years Woodbridge tried to get fair
payment. The other day the supreme
court finally ruled hal his heirs
are not entitled to compensation,
because of a technicality, Wood
bridge having failed to make his
final patent application within a GER
tain time. Law should be the ad-
ministration of justice. Too often
it's decided by technicalities, rather
than merits. Lawyers frame u
laws that way so they'll have bust
ness.
