HAPPINESS
By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Illinois.

EVANS had been born in New York
He was about as provincial as most
people who have been reared in a
large city and who think they have
seen the world His first view of Ne
braska as his train rolled slowly along
the valley of the Platte was not a very
alluring one. The level farms stretch
ing parched and treeless to apparently
limitless distances, the low, bare, I'M
painted farmhouses in the midst of
the haystacks and cattle sheds, the
absence of everything beautiful or
comfortable, seemed to him to make
life there hideously impossible.
do men and women choose to live
in such placer" he asked me. "How
do they spend their leisure time if
they have any? Nothing to do, moth
ing to see, nothing to go tol With
all this level ground I haven't seen
a tennis court since l left New York" !"
Evans had played tennis ever since
he was a boy in 'prep" school, and
he could not understand how with such
wonderful opportunities for the sport
tage Of them.
'They have their household duties,''
| answered, Every laborious ones at
times, and they have their children"
II should think they'd go insane"
he continued.

swered, "as women do in the city,
worn out by society and too much lei
sure: but in general they work as reg
ularly and as hard as their husbands y
ut seems hell to me-" Evans said
On our way back from Denver busi-
ness required that we visit one of the
despised farmhouses The man of the
house was gone, but his young wife
was able to transact the business for
which we came. She was an attrac
tive young woman with a shy little
youngster hiding behind her skirts.
Both she and her husband had been
to college, we discovered they had
Travelled some, and, much to Evans
surprise, they had even been to New
York
How do you live in such placer"
Evans asked.
1T isn't so bad" she replied simply.
1--WE have each other, we are going to
have home, and we have him." she
said tenderly, laying her hand on the
child's head "Pm very happy"

The picture of the pretty school
frock shown here tells its simple but
pleasant story with much complete
ness The dress is made of wool jer-
sey, in castor shade, and has just
enough adornment of fine tucks and
buttons to reveal the expert workman
ship that gives it class AS an expo
nent of the mode in school frocks it
cannot be excelled-they are nearly
all made on the same lines. The
round collar, of unbfeached linen, is
frightened by little fancy stitching,
done in a high color, and 1t is by far
the most popular neck finish. There
are small, practical pockets at each
side, long sleeves with tucked cuffs,
and a narrow belt of the material.
In spite Of their sameness in style
there is plenty of diversity in school
frocks-because there is great variety
in the materials used for making
them. Plain and patterned twills,
striped and crossbar fiannels, vel
veteen, kasha and fancy WOODEN
weaves are used. Pipings in bright
colors brighten up the darker colors-
as pipings of bright red or green on
navy blue, and short rows of round
buttons to match these pipings make
a very pretty finish.

STATES TEND To
IGNORE ROUTE
NAMES
Adoption Of Numerical System
More Practical, But Loss
in Sentiment.

State highway departments gen.
orally are adopting the numerical
system Of Identifying State high.
ways along with color bands for
the designation Of arterial high.
ways through the State.
Maps carrying the information
as to the numbers and color band
scheme Of the various routes to.
gether with explanatory signs at
cross roads make 1t easy for the
visiting motorist to find his way.
The value Of this service is quite
evident to any motorist who has
visited q State where this plan of
highway Identification has been
carefully carried out.
However it IL to be depIored
that there Is a tendency on the
part Of some States in adoptinH
this most excellent plan Of ROAD
marking to ignore the well eatah.
lished name OF some historic frniI
or national highway created as a
memorial to some beloved Ameri-
can patriot.
AT a small additional cost the
explanatory signs and the State
maps could carry the name as weII
as the number OF the rout. How
much finer 1t will be for the motor
tourist OF years to come to know
Tor example that he is travelling
the modernized Daniel Boone trail
rather than to merely know he is
travelling on Route 63 of the stats
highway system.

Remove Cylinders to Find

Il sometimes happens with q new

of this is leakage past the piston

Automobile Digest.
The moment this trouble mani.
tests itself the cylinders should be
removed and an inspection made of
the rings. The slots may have
worked round until they are in
line, or one Of the rings may be
cracked or broken. A discolored
patch denotes a leak, but II the
rings appear to be In good order
the cause must be sought for else
where. The mixture may be too
rich, but this would result in over
heating of the cylinders as we'll.
It 10 quite within the bound of pos
sibility that the bearings are at
fault: they may be a shade tight,

Official Figures Give Cars
Lead, Though Usual Guess
Would Be Otherwise.

CHICAGO, March 15.-Which are
more numerous, automobiles or tele.
phones, in the United States? Don't
stop to look up statistics. What II
your guess, right off the reel.
Mine out of ten persons, 1t IL
safe to say, would guess wrong in
answering the question: said T. l..
Hausmann, president Of the newly
reorganized Templar Motor Car
Company of Cleveland in an address
here: Most people would have no
hesitation in saying there are more
telephones. They probably would
be willing to bet on it. And may
be, give odds.
Telephone Is Usual Guess.
1.-THE reason for thinking 30 il
obvious. Telephones are every
where. In our homes, In our Of
fees. In the homes and offices Of
our friends. We are always using
them. Life would seem q total
loss without them. Business and
domesticity march to the music Of
the telephone bell and the lifting
melody of Number please
But, for all this, there are more
automobiles in this country than
telephones. Telephones number a..
346,701, according to the United
States Census department and auto
mobile 14,500.00O, according to the
National Automobile Chamber Of
Commerce. So, these being official
figures, that's that.
No Longer Luxury.
There is another question in this
connection which perhaps is equally
Interesting. Between telephones and
automobiles, which is the more
necessary to the people Of the
nation. Both are great necessities.
Having learned the convenience and
unitarian value Of both, the world
would find difficulty to get along
without either.
MANY people used to look upon
the automobile as a luxury. Today
it Is as necessary in the routine Of
daily existence as telephones, street
cars. railroads, or electric lights. 1t
solves the problem of personal trans
portation and in doing that, it is
one of the vital factors in the ma
TONS business today"
