Beauty in Open Space

Now that the census bureau population esti-
mates for 1923 are out, we may e.-pect state
and civic boosters to begin calling attention to
them. Florida is already pointing out that
half million more people live there now than
in 1920; states like Michigan, which gained
100000 and California, which gained a full
million, will probably do likewise.
There is one state that probably will main
tain dignified silence No estimate was made
for Nevada; that state showed decline in pop
ulation between 1910 and 1920, and the census
bureau tentatively gives it it's 1920 figure
|77,4O7.
So Nevada probably won't say much about
the bureaus figures Yet, to our mind, these
figures give that state an excellent talking
point.
Consider the situation for moment. Our
national population has gone up 100000
since 1920. In this century we have seen the
'open spaces" contracting steadily, year by
year. Texas, once a synonym for vast,
|thinly-populated area, now has upwards Of
100000 inhabitants. The rolling hills OF
Oklahoma are filling up In the mid-westetn
industrial areas cities like Detroit, Toledo In
danapolis and Buffalo are constantly extend
ing their borders. Millions of men and women
do not know what it is to see an unfenced field
But amid all this growth and expansion, Ne
vada remains the Nevada of the past century.
It's 10000 square miles of territory support
fewer people than live in city like Canton, o.
1t is larger than all the New England states
put together with population less than one
sixth Of Rhode Islands alone. 1t is, we might
say, an oasis Of emptiness in land of crowds
The time is not far distant when the average
American will come to appreciate openness If
this kind at it's true worth When that day
comes Nevada will be host every summer to
hordes of automobile tourists. This will be
good for Nevada, and it will also be good for
the tourists.
For Nevada, praise Heaven, is still one of
those states where you can drive all day with
out seeing house or tree or fence or a
town. 1t still has the marvellous, refreshing
openness of the old west. It's air is as clear
and sharp as though the world were newly
made; it's rolling sage brush plains are framed
by backgrounds of distant, haze-wreathed
mountains. The motorist has nothing to do
all day long but soak himself in freedom and
beauty.
So, We repeat, Nevada's boosters ought to
begin quoting the census figures. A decline
in population would be fatal blow to the
pride of some states, but not to Nevada A
good part Of that states magnificence is the
sparseness of its population.

Good Taste Best Censor

You may remember that couple Of years
ago, or less, there was much in the papers
about the nudity of New Yorks musical re
vues. We had endless discussion Of it, and
many clamors for some censorship or super.
vision that would compel the girls to put on
more clothes.
No censorship came Of it, however, and the
producers were allowed to go their own sweet
way. And what happened?
Just this: the nudity disappeared. Revues
today, for the most part, are featured by elab-
crate costumes. The public simply got tired
of nudity. The producers discovered it was
no longer drawing card. So they bought
some dresses. Which proves, perhaps, that
the American public doesn't need anyone to
protect its morals. Its own good taste is its
best protector.

Editorial Comment
$50 Billion Miles a Year

Tine heSlSLer-GaZeCCe, hOck1OrQ, ILL.,
How would you like to be assigned the task
Of driving motor vehicle around the world
sixty-one million times? Driving constantly
at an average speed Of 80 miles per hour it
would take you $1,000 years. But that is
exactly what you would be forced to do could
you undertake to duplicate the travel of mo-
florists of the United States during 1927.
These interesting figures were compiled by
the American Road Builders association fol-
lowing the associations report of gasoline con-
sumption during 1927. Motorists consumed
II 1858, 100000 gallons of gasoline, which at an
average of 13 miles to the gallon would mean
q total Travelled distance Of more than one hun
dred fifty billion (150,000, 600, O00) miles.
The average consumption per motor vehicle
during 1927 was $50 gallons and the average
distance travelled estimated at 1850 miles on
the ultraconservative basis Of - miles to the
gallon.
The American Road Builders association &C.
credits much of the increased motor travel to
the existence Of good roads. these roads," it
Is claimed, "save from three to four cents for
every mile Travelled. II all the roads of the
United States were improved to q degree pro-
portionate to the amount Of traffic they carry
the annual saving ii transportation costs
would exceed four billion dollars"
The United States now has 10000 miles OF
improved highways, according to the Amer:.
can Road Builders association. There is 4
great demand for additional improved high
ways in the secondary system.

ness?"
Answer: Yawning is caused from
oxygen starvation. If you will take
deep breathing exercises each morn
ing and, at first, occasionally
through the day, you will supply
your lungs with enough oxygen with
which you can satisfy the bodily
needs.
Question: M. J. J. asks: care

orange juice good combination for

Answer: Milk and orange juice
is a good combination for breakfast,
or to be taken in place of any other
meal of the day; but graham crack
ers or other starchy foods should not
be used with this orange-milk COM
bination.

Answer: It is possible for pus
to enter the blood stream, but usual
~ the Emphatic circulation takes
care Of pus, which is composed of
toxic material along with the white
blood cells. Pus in the blood cannot

taking the toxins and white cells
away and rendering the toxins less
dangerous.
Question:: K. L. L. asks: "What

Answer: Whether a local or gen.
eral anesthetic is used by your
dentist depends entirely upon the
condition Of your health, the
teeth to be extracted, and many
other factors which your dentist
alone can decide.
