OUR LAWS PROVE MISF1Ts
IN CENTURY OF FACT

In the century that made our
law, government was a public and
business a private function. Eco
nomic changes have since rsed
the facts, but not our legal theories
of them.
Juristic casuistry has managed to
find a fiction by which to fit the an
cient legal theory to the modern
economic fact in the case of public
utilities" which have been defined as
affected with public interest,"
This Kansas law was an attempt
to extend the same principle to the
problem Of industrial peace and the
uninterrupted operation of the es-
sential processes of modern life. But
this was beyond the old definition,
and it cannot be done.
Because. in the eighteenth century
it was vital to protect the individual
in the right to cut his own fuel and
draw his own water. unhampered by
law. it now becomes logically ,neces-
sarv to deprive modern communities
Of the right. by law. to assure them
selves a continuous supply of fuel
and water.
The eighteenth century was the
Century of Logic. Therefore our
laws. because they are logical. are
misfits to the twentieth century, the
Century of Fact.

Letter From Nurse Anderson to Mr..
John Alden Prescott


John Alden Prescott
My Dear Mr.. Prescott: think I
should inform you of something that
is happening here. A man by the
name of Orson Gibson is paying a
great deal of attention to your moth
er. This man seems very much of
a gentleman. He probably is about
the same age as your mother. He
evidently is a staunch church mem-
ber, and your mother and he go to
church every Sunday morning and
every Wednesday evening.
They are both very much opposed
to dancing and cards, but after
much consultation they decided they
would 60 to see moving picture
depicting the life of Lincoln. After
that it was an easy jump to the Ten
Commandments, which they have
concluded tells great moral lesson.
They have been going now for
some weeks almost every afternoon
and it is rather laughable to see that
they are not talking as much about
great moral lessons as they are about
good acting and good entertainment.
Perhaps. Mr. Prescott, you had
better write your mother and ask
her about this man, or better still,
come over here yourself. l don't
want to take on the responsibility
Of this growing intimacy.
Sincerely yours,
NURSE ANDERSON.

JUDGE LINDSEY IS A
NATIONAL ASSET

Judge Lindsey may. like other
prophets, be without honor among
a part of the people in his own
country. From the closeness of the
election, it would seem so.
But the rest of the country at
least, as we'll as half of his own
people, will rejoice that the recount
leaves him in office, even by close
margin. The man who made the
more than any other person, taught
the rest of US that juvenile wrong
doing is a human problem. to be
handled humanity, is national as
set.
1t would be a national disappoint-
ment if he were to be sacrificed to
a local quarrel, even if half the To-
cal people are on the other side of
that quarrel.

ON HEALTH--
LACK OF BLOOD CAUSES PAINTING

Many have an incorrect idea of
the cause of fainting, Mrs. Jones
learned.
Painting is caused by lack of
blood flow to the brain, instead Of
too much. 1t is because the brain
is not getting the proper supply of
blood that patients are placed in
lying position with the head lower
than the feet.
The sitting position is very dam
gerous. People have died simply be-
cause the head was not lower than
the feet.
Often it lis advisable to let the

the head down and the hips up.
This causes the blood to return
to the brain.
Smelling salts may be held to the
nose and heat applied over the heart
to stimulate its action.
Windows and doors should be
opened. Plenty of fresh air is need
ed. Unfasten the clothing to per-
nit free circulation of the blood.
Cold water may be sprinkled upon
the face and the hands.

CHEWlNG.GUM AMERICANS
ARE AT HOME ABROAD

A sudden demand for American
chewing gum is reported from Lon
don, but the dealers are mystified by
the fact that nearly all the sales are
in the summer. They see no neces-
sary connection between summer
and gum. They are right. There is
none. The explanation is simpler.
Summer is the time when the gum

Others Forced Out.
Phil Shafer, driving a Duesenberg
Special, quit after the third lap.
Shattuc was obliged to pull up after
finally getting started with a steam
ing radiator. Far outdistanced, he was
game, however, and with a hasty
drink of water went on. Benny Hill
dropped a valve in the twenty-first
lap, and he backed his car off the
track. Shattuc, hopelessly outdis-
tanced, also retired.

AS they came pounding around and
around the track toward the last few
laps the spectators got their real
thrill of the whole race. Apparently
nobody knew it but the officials, who
had failed to make the announcement,
but De Palma had replaced Hepburn
in Devore's car and he was still in
the race. AS De Palma rounded the
steeply banked curve beyond the
grandstand his machine was above

watchers in the grandstands saw the
drivers body shoot out from the ma

after a sickening slide along the track
and into the sandy border next the
lower rail.
But De Palma was game, and, while
the crowd expected worse, he rose and
waved both hands in the air to show
that he was unhurt. The tirst-aid
boys, who had been waiting impa-
tiently all through the race for some
thing to happen, rushed toward the
driver, and, while he consented to a
little hasty treatment in the firstaid
