THE HAZARDS OF FLIGHT.

From the New York Tribune.
II would be well IL fight engi-
neers laid aside for a time efforts
TO increase the speed and carrying
capacity Of airplanes. and bent
every effort toward making them
safer. The Havana-Key West dis
aster. the second serious one which
has occurred in the same locality,
might not have been preventable.
But the risk of such accidents can
be greatly reduced-and will I'M
questiona'bly be reduced in the
futue.
The development OF the locomo-
tive and the steamship has been ac-
companied constantly by the inven-
ton and Improvement Of devices
which tend TO minimize accidents.
Indeed. no one now thinks of the
possibility OF accident in entrainlne
for a journey between New York
and Chicago. And such deraillngs
and collisions as do occur are al
most always traceable 10 human
falibility. which is past the power
of any engineer to correct.
The airplane has been brought
rapidly to its present stage. The
experience of the war did much to
improve speed and carrying power,
but In war, accident prevention is
secondary consideration. Everybody
must take chances on the firing
line.
Now that the flying machine has
come to be a recognized means of
tavel It is of the highest Importance
that construction, and engine re-
liability be brought as closely TO per-
lection as possible. Far better that
speed be limited. and that load
carrying power remain low than
that continual breakdowns, for
which engineering defects are alone
responsible. should make such hor-
rors possible as that which occurred
in the Florida Strait.

SAVINGS VISIONS.

From the Worcester Telegram.
The man who gets up the cir
culars which come to the home ex-
horting readers TO join the savings
clubs knows his fellow men. An in
teresting piece Of psychology is dis
played in the five pictures to repre-
sent many classes of savers. From
the bank book held in the hand of

vision OF realized desire.
The picture for the student shows
books for his education, for the pro-
fessional woman a vacation on a
bathing beach, FOR the wage Garner a
home. for the housewife a fur coat
and for the professional man a
coupe standing in front OF the en-
trance OF an office building.
The selection to represent the
dreams Of each class is so good, de-
plotting as it does the psychology OF

Recent conventions OF college Sc
cret societies in Washington and the
tone OF many of the addresses made
by some OF the representatives in
dicates the need of more Ameri-
| oanism in our colleges and univer-
! stiles. Most OF the propaganda in
favor of free trade and the can
collation. OF the debts owing us from
Europe. as well as an entrance of
the United States into the League
of Nations. albeit through the back
door, comes from our colleges and
universities.
What is the reason for this? Are
the professors and instructors in the
institutions of learning less patrio-
tic than the citizens elsewhere?
Have the professors and instructors
different view and understanding
OF the institutions and the mission
OF America, from what the aver
age citizen entertains? Do they
possess superior knowledge?
The true explanation lies in the
fact that most professors and in
structors teach theoretically and
from a cosmic point OF view. They
make themselves believe that they
are looking after the welfare OF the
United States by teaching the doc
trine that the whole world is a unit.
and that the United States should
act universally. not nationally. This
Is the theory of science and physics
It Is immaterial what college and
university instructors or professors
think about these matters: but It
Is very material what they teach the
young men and women. 1t is
great pity II not peril. that so
many young men and women in
our educational institutions are be-
ing bereft OF their real Americanism
by the un-American ideas taught
them by certain instructors tinctur-
ed with foreign notions and per-
haps influenced by insidious propa-
ganda distributed for a purpose.

cal economy in the colleges and uni

lie has a new job. He intends to
abolish the polar regions. He con-
fesses that it is almost as big a task
as It sounds. for he means to devote
himself entirely to changing the
popular conception of the far North.
He wants the world to regard the
far North as useful and habitable.
To Stefansson the attitude of the
average man toward the polar re-
gions is merely a continuation of the
age told attitude of the race toward
other geographical bogeys. As the
belief in n fiat earth and the exist
ence OF a Sea of Darkness was a

No Need to

Tells How to Make Hair Grow Strong,


Thick and LustroUs.
Thousands OF men and women are
growing hairless every day. This is
needless because badness usually
comes from neglect and anyone who
gives the scalp a little attention should
always have an abundance Of good
looking healthy hair. Dandruff and
dirt cause badness by clogging the
pores in the scalp and giving the dand-
ruff germs fertile ground for prolific
breeding.
The treatment is very simple; re-
move the dirt by shampooing and de-
stroy the dandruff germs by applying
the genuine Partisan Sage, most ef-
ficient antiseptic liquid that druggists
everywhere are now recommending as
one Of the quickest and safest treat
ments to surely stop itching scalp and
falling hair remove all dandruff and TO
properly nourish and invigorate the hair
roots.
Partisan Sage is in great demand by
discriminating women because II is
daintily pertumed. does not color or
streak the hair and gives IL a soft
ness and lustre that fascinates and
compels admiration. Eckerd's or Dan
forths Drug Store, will guarantee 1t to
you.

CENTRE IS BEATEN VERY DECISIVELY
Pennsylvania Piles Up Score of "A to 0 on Praying
 CoIonelS"

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 27-The famous Centre college football team. in it's fourth invasion of the east, met University of Pennsylvania today, 24 to 0. More than 10000 persons saw the Quakers score three touchdowns with the extra points and a field goal against the Praying Colonels."
 Except in the opening and closing periods, when the Kentuckians showed some ground-g gaining quail ties, the Centre team was outplayed in all points of the game. The only time that Pennsylvania was in dan ger of being scored upon was in the closing moments, when Lemon, right end for Centre, in desperate effort to avoid shutout, tried a field goal from Pennsylvania's 32-yard line. The referee decided it was no goal, the ball apparently going wide of the posts. There was some discussion with the officials by the Centre players about it.
 This came immediately after what appeared to be fight among several players. There was a scrimmage and then a mix-up. Who were the prin cipals could not be seen from the stands, except that when Dewhirst. a substitute, extrieated himself from the scrimmage he left the field and Pennsylvania was penalized half the distance to the goal line, about 15 yards. There was booing among the spectators, which seemed to be aimed at both sides.
 Pennsylvania. the heavier team pounded the Centre line hard and consistently broke through the Colo nels wherever attacked There were no very long runs, but some good passing was indulged in which netted substantial gains. On the defense, Pennsylvania held like a stone wall. Repeatedly the dashing Kentuckians struck the line, only to be hurled back for serious loss.
 Captain Hamer, Thomas, McGraw and Dern played strong game. The task of carrying the ball was given to them and they seldom failed. Ha- mer's bunting also was good. The lineup and summary:
 Pennsylvania (24)-Westgate, left end; Graf, left tackle; Mckinley, left guard; Adams, center; Kaufman, right guard; Sutherland. right tackle; i; Fairchild, right end; Dern, quarter back; Hamer, left halfback; McGraw, right halfback; Thomas fullback
