"Why do you think that the whip
ping post, if revived. would be so eff.
fective?" asked.
Because today our problem in the
crimes of burglary, robbery and house
breaking Is to prevent criminals from
repeating their crimes just as soon as
they have served one sentence. The
more times criminal returns to crime
after serving a sentence or several
sentences the more expert he becomes
in committing crime and improving
his chances of not getting caught the
next time.

'Most of the crime of which I talk
Is done by repeaters. The present
punishment we give this kind of
criminal seems to have no effect on
him so far as getting him to reform
and to stop returning to the criminal
trade after serving sentences. Now,
if we revived the old whipping post
we would soon get rid of not only re.
peaters, but first offenders as we'll.
Of course. I am speaking relatively.
1 mean that we would get a large re-
duction in the crimes of burglary, rob-
berry and housebreaking If we whipped
offenders instead of filming them or
locking them up.

collecting walking sticks for 40 years
and I've only 800. I've not consciously
tried to acquire a single enemy, but
they number far into the thousands.
1t should be vice versa. The walking
sticks should be acquired incidentally,
and the enemies should be chosen
with the utmost care, for one can
never be too careful in choosing ones
enemies. -. Still, all considered,
l believe great men adown the ages
have suffered far more at the hands
of their little friends than at the
hands Of their big enemies"
''In all France" told him, I'm

If one wishes to become a flyer he
needs good eyes. no obstructive condl.
tlons in the nose and throat, sound
heart, lungs and kidneys, a stable
nervous system, quick reaction time
and a good sense of equilibrium. The
most important are the eyes and
nervous system.
So far as the eyes are concerned,
the man must not only be able to see
clearly, but he must be able to judge
distance, as for example in landing,
when he needs to judge his distance
from the ground, trees, poles, other
planes, buildings, etc. He also mus.
have good color vision to detect navi-
eating lights. airdrome lights. colored
panels used in signaling. and normal
color vision also helps him to appre-
ciate the character of the terrain
when picking out a landing field He
must be able to change his focus from
far to near in order to see clearly at
distance and then read his map or
instrument board. He must have no
disease of the eye or it's appendages
that would interfere with clear vision.
Finally he must have normal visual
fields, or, in other words, be able to
see out Oh lne talI OF MS eye When
looking straight ahead.
Good Breathing Essential.
There should be no obstructive con-
ditions or marked disease conditions
in the nose and throat to interfere
with free breathing
Inasmuch as the plane of his equi-
librium is constantly changing, he
must have no disturbance of his
e.uilibratory mechanism. The latter
includes his eyes, his ears, his
muscles, joints and the sense of
gravity and one or two minor factors.
The old method was to whirl him
in a revolving chair and test his re.
actions following the whirling. The
disadvantage Of this, however, is that
1t tests only one of the factors con-
cerned In equilibrium, namely the ear.
We use, now. a more general test.
A general physical examination tests
his heart, lungs and kidneys, the mo-
bility of his joints and other general
factors. Individuals with organic dis
ease of any important organ do not
make good flyers or do not last long
because of the general debility caused
by the disease and because of the ex-
ira strain thrown on the organs in
yolved by the stress of flying.

added up his accounts, he found that
he had cleared $4,000. That looked
pretty good to him, and he began to
WELD prolific pen. There is about
him the vitality of the man who has
not been overcome by the ease and
monotony Of civilization and who de-
rives the keenest delight from the
powers of his imagination.
And the servants Of today are not
only much less loyal and industrious
than those Of % years ago, but they
are far less honest. Theft, you know.
Is one of those real menaces that we
have in America, but over which the
people seem to slumber in complete
oblivion of its existence. 1t is decid-
edly alarming to read some of the
estimates by reliable statisticians on
the cost Of crime in this country. And
by far the greatest item on the list
of crime is that coming from bur-
glaries, robberies, housebreaking and
general dishonesty"
"Well," I answered, "the laws
against burglary and robbery are

could be. have never in all my life
seen anything to equal the terrible
roughness Of the characters found in
an Alaskan mining camp. And yet in
all the camps where I mined we never
had but one case of thief. Every
one knew that the whipping post
would be used.
* X * X
"The law governing robbery in the
first camp I came to was prescribed
as follows:
"'A robber, thief or housebreaker
no matter how much he shall take or
how little, shall be punished by fog.
ging at the whipping post, and then,
If it be Summer, he shall be put on a
log and allowed to drift downstream,
or if it be Winter he shall take the
trail to another settlement
Drifting downstream on a log
meant that the mosquitoes would get
him, and starting out on a trail in
Winter meant that a thief would per.
ish from the cold. OF course, this
latter part of the sentence was only
put in to make the punishment seem
as terrible as possible. 1t was never
invoked The flogging was deemed
sufficient.
II have talked with men who have
been flogged and their testimony is
unanimous that there is no punish
ment so much dreaded as f1ogging.
The very thought of it after one has
been f1ogged once In his life is enough
to almost turn the stomach. And, as
l say, 1 have never heard of any man
who has been flogged repeating his
offense and risking another flogging."
What do you think Of the brutality
OF such a punishment as fiogging?
Isn't the tendency today all away
from brutality in punishment"
asked.
Lets look at it this way. When
we lock a criminal up. honest people
have to pay for his upkeep. Money
that might otherwise be saved Is taken
from charitable organizations to help
his family. Then, at the end Of sen.
tence, a criminal starts anew in his
old trade and society is soon paying
again. The man is no better in char
acter than when he started.
when you start flogging our
burglars, our robbers and our house.
breakers you will reform them, you
will stop taking money out of honest
peoples pockets to pay the board bills
of the dishonest, and you will see
these kinds Of criminals growing less
and less in numbers. In a fiogging
you don't kill. You don't impair for
life. All you do Is to hold up a form
of punishment before the eyes of the
underworld that will be regarded with
respect" 5

Finest Prehistoric Pottery in America
Held to Be That of Tlaxcala, Mexico

Among the most beautiful pottery
made by people in America before the
coming of the Spaniards is the pottery
of Tiaxcala. in Mexico, says DIR.
Eduardo Noguera of the Mexican de.
partment of archaeology. DIR. No.
guerra. who has been excavating an
Aztec temple near the town of Tlax-
Gala, has found a number Of specimens
of the Ceramic art of that race.
The typical Tlaxcala pottery Is dis.
tinguished by it's extreme hardness
and its red color. 1t Is made of well
mixed clay and Is better baked than
most pottery of other regions, he said.
