mask affords any relief. Only a
very small quantity is necessary to
render a room or bank vault unten-
abe for many hours. It is not
poisonous or deadly, but instantly
blinds whoever is exposed to it's
vapors as long as they remain in
contact with it. It does not cause
permanent injury as does mustard
gas, phosgine, Lewisite, and other
poisonous gases.
The method devised for the utili-
patton of C N for bank vault pro-
lection is such as to make it entirely
safe for everybody except the
yeggmen who armed with his acety-
lene torch, has heretofore found
little difficulty in cutting his way
through thick doors of vaults and
money safes.
While foremost nations seem to
favor the discontinuance of gas in
future warfare, there is certainly no
reason why it should not be used as
peacetime protection of life and pro-
perty, and now that bank yeggmen
are daily becoming more desperate
and daring in their nefarious trade
IS high time some such deterrent
was used to stop them.
These gas bombs were installed il
both the First State and First Ma
tional banks this week.

Tomorrow and Sunday the Ely
team goes to International Falls on
the occasion of the State Convention

with the Falls team. Both of these
games will be holly contested. Ely
has won three games from the Falls
and the latter have taken one from
the home boys. The games tomor-

championship matter and it is ex-
pected that both teams will exert
themselves to annex the honors.

circuits and no douu. will give the
Ely boys something to think about.

can perform in fast company and

UNIFORM TRAFFIC REGULA
TIONS NEEDED.

Uniform traffic laws for pedes-
trian and driver should be adopted
throughout the United States.
In one state where records show
that for every thousand automobiles
in the state, one person Is killed
d year, and seven are injured. there
is a loss of more than 100000 a
year traceable to street and high
way accidents.
AS long as one city has one set
of traffic laws while the next city
has different regulations, there will
be a heavy traffic toll. With the
great amount IF tourist traffic, uni-
form laws should not be confined
to the cities of a single state, but
should be adopted by all states.
In no field is there such con-
spicuous waste of both time and
life as that caused by accidents on
our streets and highways.
Realizing the Importance of the
movement to prevent automobile
accidents, politicians have hit upon
the idea of compulsory automobile
liability insurance which, in theory,
would "pay" for accidents after
they have happened. The idea does
not seem to work out as well as it
sounds on paper. And even if it
did, compensation is not nearly so
important as prevention of acct
dents.
Enactment of uniform traffic
regulations throughout the coun-
try, and their enforcement, would
probably do more than anything
else to curb automobile accidents.
