AUTOMOBILE DRIVERS

With automobile accidents so common, thought
needs to be given to all conditions that tend to
create lack of watchfulness on the part of
drivers. It is hard to how operators under some
circumstances can give any thought to the job of
driving their cars, considering the atmosphere of
hilarity with which they are surrounded
Many automobiles parties seem to have set out
to paint the town red as they go along They are
yelling and singing, and calling out to people along
keep his mind the road.
These parties are frequently so jammed in
that has any space to move. and so that
the driver can hardly operate his transmission
levers. It is common thing also to see the back
seat empty while two or three people, usually girls
driver. Such operators are often more concerned
with the destinations of these fair companions,
than with the rights of the public.
Automobile drivers need always to realize that
they are attempting quite serious business when
ever they drive a through the streets Their
position is partly comparable to that of loco
motive engineer. Inattention and negligence cause
serious accidents. Even slow driver, whose mind
is not on the road and the steering wheel, may be
as much of peril as reckless daredevil who tears
across the country at double the rate of normal
speed.
Many ordinarily careful people add to the peril
of automobiles, simply by asking questions carry
ing on conversation with the driver at times when
he has all he do to make his way through
crowded traffic

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

If appreciation of human excellence be cor
rectly indicated by the material gains possible to
its possessor it hardly be denied that the world
still esteems the physical above the mental
Drawn and beauty command financial rewards
far beyond those accorded to mere brains. This
refers, Of course, to the personal earnings of the
top-notchers aside from any investment of capital.
We are willing to pay fabulous sums to those
who entertain us, while dealing less generously with
those who contribute to our instruction or our
general well-being.
Compare the earnings Of Gloria Swanson,
Mary Pickford, Jack Dempsey and Babe Ruth with
those of our eminent authors scientists and en-
gineers. While some authors receive handsome
enumeration, they are those who can turn out a
best selling novel; rather than writer's of solid
instructive literature
That the condition noted is becoming more and
more marked may be illustrated by the shower of
gold that was heaped upon Red Grange, famed
football STAR who received close $4,000 in less
than month after he left the University of I'LL
nois to join the professional ranks.
This includes the unprecedented sum of $780,
900 for his first moving picture film; $4,000 for
one football game and an almost equal amount for
other games; $4,000 in one day for lending his
name and endorsement to certain manufactured
articles for advertising purposes. rather ridicu
lous incident of commercialism was reported, to
the effect that he received large sum for permit
ing his name to be used in connection with a to-
bacco advertisement although he does not use the
weed himself.
About the only conclusion TO be drawn from all
this is that people will spend their money for the
things they want, and that in our present state Of
civilization Drawn commands the highest price in.
the worlds market, with beauty holding second
place and brains running rather poor third.

PLATOON PLAN SCHOOLS

Among the plans devised for relieving conges-
ton in school building of the country. the platoon
system gives promise of solving this important
problem.
Briefly, the plan is to divide the pupils into
groups, or platoons. whereby section pursues
purely book studies and recitations while the other
section is engaged in special activities and play.
It is claimed that this SYSTEM secures better
results through maintaining more lively interest
on the part of the pupils, aording specialized
teachers and fuller use of the school plant. thus
permitting larger enrolment
In bulletin issued by the board Of education
of Birmingham, Ala is is declared that in eighteen
public schools of that city nearly 1000 more pupils
are being accommodated under the platoon system
than could be taken care of under the old plan of
elementary instruction.
Progressive educators everywhere are earnestly
attempting to solve many pressing school problems
and from the success which has attended the
platoon system in about 100 cities where il has been
tried. it appears that il is developing into an i'm
pertant agency for overcoming one phase of our
educational difficulties.

"PRovINcsALIsM"

Some Of the people who take long travelling
trips seem to think that the people who stay at
home are narrow and provincial They think
that these nOn-traveIing people are limited to the
idess prevailing in their little neighborhoods
and locality, and have very little knowledge Of the
world and Of the point Of view Of people outside
Of their own circles.
But there is no special reason why stay at
home people need to be provincial Some who
travel freely have that quality. because they do not
read much and they observe only the surface as
poets Of the things they see In their travels
A person may stay At home every day in the
year. But II such one reads newspapers and
magazines freely 50 to know what Is going on in
the world. and what people are thinking and doing
elsewhere. that person Is not At all provincial.

1EAPER TOBUY

That Is Reason Politicians
Favor Adjustment of

By n. D. Cochran,
Times staff CCrresDondsnt

WASHINGTON, June 22.-Penn-
sylvania enjoys no monopoly Of the
fine art of buying votes. It is mere
ly distinguished by the superior size
and scope of it's activities along that
line.
Only a few years ago one little
County in Ohio, and rural county
at that, got on the first page of
newspapers all over the country
through the wholesale indictment Of
citizens of that county for the high
crime of selling their votes.
The inside story fof those whole
sale indictments is interesting. The
selling of votes had been going on
SO long in that county that it had
become a habit So long as it wasn't
too expensive, this thrifty habit of
the voters didn't disturb the politi-
clans in either party. They kept on
running for Office and paying the
price.
Prices Mount
For a long time nobody worked up
enough Indignation to kick up a

bauchery of the voters. But the
