Fl HE police still are warning on

what police departments in
most American cities are doing most
of the time.
The craving for speed is. an in
tensely human trait; it has been with
us ever since our first Simian an
cestor Chats only a figure Of
speech. Mr.. Bryan dropped from
the trees, bobbed his tail, and begun
to run around on his hind legs be-
cause he could go faster that way.
And the automobile gratifies this
natural passion for speed more
readily than any other machine in
common use.
In Indianapolis the human liking
for speed has been capitalized. Out
on the west eIge of town we have a
temple dedicated to 1.-THE Motor
Speedway. Because Of that our city
is distinguished in far parts for
something besides solid civic accom-
pGshments or Il long name.
So the success of this current
drive, or any drive against speeders,
is bound to be only so-so or less. It's
easy enough to get any individual
human shooting star after he has
burned up the pavement. It's easy
enough to cool off that one comet
with a stiff fine or Jail sentence. But
for one so cooled a hundred get

His hair is all fraZzled and won

to him. There's full of the dickens
all over his face and he bubbles with
vigor and vim.
His shoe strings are Hopping al.

stocking hole at his knee. My guess
is that he's the inventor of sound;
he's as noisy as noisy can be.
There's maybe one button that's
left on his waist; his trousers are
ripped at the seat. It's cup cakes
and pie that appeal to his taste or a
big dish Of cream is a treat.
He's nibbled his finger nails down
to the quick and he's tan till he
couldn't be tanner. He never has
known what it is to be sick, cause
he just isn't built in that manner.

EDUCATIONAL NOTE

ri r. EDWARD C. ELLIOTT,
lD president Of Purdue. told an
IL Indianapolis audience that
the student who flunks at college is
a real asset to the cause OF higher
education.
It wasn't always SO.
Most of us, of pre-war school ex-
perience. recall when we completely
muffed a course in school no teachers
came around. patted us on the head
and called us their little assets.
They came around all right and
called us something. But the term
used was not asset. At least not all
of that word-only the first syllable
Of It,
Now we would be assets-we have
DIR. Elliott's word for it-even if the
Purdue faculty threw us out on our
ears because we flunked.
Isn't education making great
strides?
