Rev. Otto B, Moor breaches
Sermon Against Wild
ness of Youth.

"In these modern days running
away is youths most popular sport, "
said the Rev. Otto B. Moor in a con-
frmation sermon Palm Sunday at
the Emmanuel Reformed Church,
Prospect and S. New Jersey SITS, on
Whence and Whither?"
AT u many boys and girls have
more education than their parents
ever had" he said. Being favored.
youth is tempted to think himself
highly important. He is tempted to
call his parents back numbers.
Then in his conceit he runs away
from good home influences, from the
control Of his parents and from church
associations But thinking time comes
to everybody. The sad thing for so
many is that 1t comes too late. The
question is sure to come, Whence
contest thou?
Follow Only Best Teachings
The best time for thinking time is
now said Rev. Moor. whether you
stay in your home town always or
whether you go TO the ends OF the
earth. if you remain a captive to the
best that has been taught you In home
and Sunday school and church you
will always be at home with happy
memories and with your God"

Ne,U Auto Bumper
Held automatic
Check or, Machine
Designed to Stop Car
When 1t Comes in Con-
tact With Pedestrian.

District officials 'who are directly
interested in traffic regulations yester-
day witnessed a demonstration In front
of the District Building of new bumper
for automobiles, which automatically
stops the machine when it comes in
contact with a pedestrian or any other
object.
The city authorities saw a man
start the automobile along the drive
way in front of the District Building
and then jump out, leaving the car In
motion and place himself in its path
The impact of the bumper against his
body applied the brakes and turned
off the ignition, causing the machine
to come to a stop.
Mrs. Blanche Greene, who is as
sistng the inventor, X. Osten Schau-
man, in demonstrating the device,
said Mr.. Schauman was prompted to
work out the new bumper after he
had seen n woman caught between
two machines in a Western city.
Among those who witnessed the
demonstration were Maj. w. II. Hol

BOY, 10, PILOTS
SHIP HOME AF TER
BATTLE At SEA
Youth Sails as Seaman,
Comes Back Second in
Command,

By KEA Service
SAN FRANCISCO, May 81
Romance of the sea, with its hero
a 19-year-old boy, has come sailing
through the Golden Gate aboard
the schooner S. N. Castle.
Eighty-seven days the Castle
was buffeting seas from Sydney,
Australia. Eighty-seven days of
adventure, hardship and peril they
were.
And when she reached here the
boy, Daniel Blackie. was second
in command A few months be-
fore he had sailed from his home
in Vancouver. B. c.. as a seaman.
Since early boyhood, Blackie
had felt the call of the sea. And
just before the Castle set forth
on her last trip, Blackie answered
that call. He expected to be home
again after a short voyage.
First Mate Fired
But shortly after the Castle
cleared, friction developed be-
tween the first mate and Capt.
Werner Remnant. The climax came
in Suva, a South Sea Island port.
The first mate was discharged.
Then the second mate became i'll,
and he. too, was left behind.
Blackie was named first mate.
With the crew, it was a popular
choice. And with the skipper the
lads Drawn was ample assurance
all orders would be obeyed
promptly.
Then came the storm. And then

Blackie.
But we couldn't stop the leak.

Eddie Edenburn, official A A. A.

Boyer did not finish the car he was
nominated to drive he cannot have
credit for points won by him. COrum
will get credit for laps which he
drove. This makes the official

90; Conner, 40; INQUIRE, IS; Melon
Ough. 80, and Vail. 80.
Although Boyer will get little Of
the prize money, at least officially.
nothing can take from him the glory
of being crowned with the speed
king head piece at the finish of the
race and Of having the thrill of
coming home a winner.
Corum Deserves Credit
Corum drove a magnificent race
and deserves big share of credit for
his handling of the car which he
spent two months helping to pre-
pare.
The increased stability of the cars
is shown by the fact that despite the
terrific speed only five cars fell by
the wayside out Of the twenty-five
that faced the starter.
Two Duesenbergs were put out in
crashes against the wall with 10
casualties, and three Nillers went
out when the metal straps holding
the gasoline tanks in place proved
too light for the strain of heavy dgiv-
ing on the track. Other Millers had
this same trouble. but managed to
make successful emergency repairs.

PHONE ANNIVERSARY
Long Distance Installation Forty
Years Old.

BIZ Times Special
NEW YORK, May 31.-Long dis
lance telephony was born just forty
years ago when the New York Bos-
ton line was opened.
Up to that time the telephone was
considered as more or less a neigh
borhood affair, and most people felt
that. beyond the radius Of twenty
or thirty miles. a telephone system
would not be a paying investment,
while many believed it would not be
practical.
The anniversary Of the opening of
the through line to New York will
be celebrated on Sept. Of this year.
Telephone communication was actu-
ally first established on March 81,
1884, and the success of the expert
ment established, but it was not I'M
til Sept. 4 Of that year that the line
was opened for regular business.
