NOT DEAD ENOUGH

Lenin and Trotzky, Russian boil

According to newspaper reports,
this is about the twentieth time they

as dead as the czar, and that will be

himself was dead-quite dead--dead
all at once and with revolutionary

the man of the hour in Mexico, and
we have since had very little trouble

not even possible for an American

If Messrs. Lenin and Trotzky
will expedite their final demise, and
make thorough and complete job
of it, we may soon find conditions
quite different in the land of the
bolshevists. Mexico came back"

numbers. That is good SO far as
it goes, but it doesn't go far enough.
The home and its surroundings
should keep pace with our personal !
appearances. 1t doesn't look just
in accordance with the fitness of
things to trip along in new toggery
and stumble over tin cans and other
refuse in the front yard.
Get the new spring suits by any
means. You will look good to 9TH

dress up the old town at the same
time. If every citizen would take
proper care of his own premises
there wouldn't be anything to crit
icise. Now wouldn't that be great
nothing to criticise?
We could easily set out new
shrubbery and plant acres of beau
tiful flowers, and keep the yards
and parkways green. We cannot
live forever, but we can enjoy life
more while we are here if we go
about it in the right way.
Now don shrug your shoulders
and say it is too much of job, "

GETTING AWAY Quickly

A number of drivers have formed
the habit of starting off in second"
when trailing in traffic. It saves a
lot OF shifting. makes for a snappy
start and saves a little gas. But it's
tough on the clutch and unnecessary.
The thing to do is to stop about
eight feet in back of the car ahead
when trahc halts. When it is al
most ready to start allow the car to
begin creeping in 'low," switching
to second" as the line starts NOV
ing. 1t is only necessary to use
low" long enough to overcome the
cars inertia. AS soon as the car
has a little free rolling speed no
harm can be done by shifting to
second" and picking up from there,
assuming there is no upgrade.
Under this plan car will get away
quicker than starting off in Second,
as the latter always results in a
hesitation of the engine and a

Curryina the Car

Curryins the Car
Speaking before a convention Of
parents and school teachers recently,
the president of an American col
lege took occasion to review the
trend Of the day in the younger
generation. This was developed
through series of contrasts, one Of
the pictures from the past being his
story of the days when as boy he
had a regular duty to perform in
currying the horse.
The educator was speaking with
particular reference to the need for
improving the soning generation
through forcing them to do more
constructive work, but. there is a
lesson in the story of the horse that
should be of value to the parent,
especially the parent who owns car
and who constantly bewails the fact
that he cannot find time to keep 1t in
good shape. D..
One is somewhat startled at the
fact that with the passing OF the
horse has gone that good old home
labor which did so much to cut costs
for parents and so much to make
more useful citizens out of fresh crop
of youngsters. There Is hardly
great man today who doesn't point

father made him curry the horse, if
his early days were spent on farm.
It certainly helped the horse and
helped the boy, and it must have
saved the owner many a dollar.
The contrast with conditions today
Is rather violent. Here are 13,000,-
900 car owners. many of them with
children who should be made to help
take care of the car and who could
benefit by SO employing their idle
moments. When the young folks of
today grow up there will be few to
say that their fathers made them
clean the car, and few will find any
particular pleasure in making this
admission.
Meanwhile, perhaps the parent
motorist can change the situation by
taking tip.
