No high degree of morality has ever
developed in many lives as a result of
the Sophism of Georgias, the Sensa-

Berkeley, the Skepticism of Hume,
the Agnosticism of Huxley, or from
the general teachings of the leaders OF
any of the doubtful PHILOSOPHERS.

Hume says that Berkeley's writing

Ancient philosophy is considered as

Medieval, from 500 A. d. to 1900 A. ID.
and Modern, from that time 10 the
present.

TIRE CHANGE URGED

Rear and Front Castings

Longer Life From All.

When a passenger stands on one foot
until it gets tired he can rest it by
standing on the other one. When both
feet get tired he can sit down. But the
tires on an automobile can't do any of
these things. They must hold up the
car day in and day out, while 1t is
standing, starting. stopping, going for
ward or backward at slow or breakneck
speed.
When feet get tired little rest will
rejuvenate them. When tires get tired
they are practically done. There Is no
rehabilitation. Like feet tires need a
change - not necessarily having the
weight removed, but from running in
the same old position. They should
be moved around on the car to accom-
plish this purpose.
When tires are run in the same posi-
ton continuously they naturally develop
q wear peculiar to that position, where

COMFORT APPEALS

JauntS Made More Joyous by
Stoves and Beds
With Springs.

COLORADO SPRINGS.-Automob
tourists and campers who are starting
on their long, joyous Summer jaunts
like the wilds, but they look for real
stoves and beds with springs.
Although beside cascading waterfalls
and under murmuring pines. the pres
ent-day outdoor dweller prefers hint
of comfort even in the wilderness, ac-
cording to observations of the United
States Forest Service.
The foresters divide the travellers into
three classes-nomads, semi-nomads
and Summer residents.
Nomad Has Choice.
And the nomad who once exulted in
sleeping under the stars now prefers a
real bed. He has a sneaking fondneSS
for a small stove instead of q glowing
bed of Goals for his bacon and eggs.
For this reason the lure Of the pri-
vately operated pay camp is increasing
The Forest Service is encouraging the
obtaining of permits for such camps
where tourists can obtain the small
comforts and Injuries they desire and
which the Government can only meet
with the simplest facilities.
In some of the camps the Govern
ment has installed q modern system Of
sanitation, stone fireplaces, shelter
houses, information booths ana other
conveniences.
Last year more than $4,000 900 peo-
pie visited the national forests, which
embrace at least part of every inpor-
tant mountain system and every i'm
portant forest region within the Nation.
Over 100000 went by automobile.
Private Parking May Be Obtained.
To the man or woman dreaming Of
scented stiffness beside waterfalls,
deep, quiet pools or rugged mountain
trails, the national forests put his
dream within reach when the national
and even State parks may be too far
away. Permits are given individuals
who wish to establish private camps,
build Summer homes or small hotels,
provided they comply with regulations.
The Coast Ranges Of the Pacific, the
Cascades. the Sierra Nevadas, the
Rocky Mountains, the Black Hills, the
Ozark Mountains and the White Noun
tains of New England all offer refuge
and solace to those trying to forget
everyday cares of existence.

MARYLAND STARTS
'SAVE-A-L|FF DRIVE
Campaign Includes Testing
and Inspection of Safety
Equipment.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, June 15.-In an eff
fort to reduce auto accidents in Mary
land, Statewide "Save-a-Life" cam
paign is being conducted this week, it
was announced by z. Austin Baugh-
man, commissioner Of motor vehicles.
Gov. Ritchie issued a proclamation
calling upon all municipal authorities,
motor organizations and civic and COM
mercial bodies to cooperate in the
campaign. The proclamation also calls
attention to the new motor vehicle in
spection law.
Safety Equipment Studied.
Under the provisions of bill en-
acted by the last General Assembly the
commissioner of motor vehicles is au-
thorized to require an inspection of the
safety parts Of all motor vehicles in the
State The inspection of motor vehi-
cles consists of brakes, lights, horns,
steering mechanism, windshield wipers,
rear view mirrors, obscure license tags
and operators licenses.
Service stations and garages in every
community in the State will serve as
official inspection stations to July Is.
During this period every motor vehicle
owner is requested to drive or send his
car or truck to one of these of1cial
inspection stations to be examined re-
garding its mechanical condition. This
inspection will be made entirely with
out charge at Official garages and serv-
ice stations, and the motor vehicle own
er is free to choose any Official inspec-
ton station he desires.
Official windshield stickers will be
issued in the name Of the State motor
vehicle authorities and one of these
will be placed on every motor vehicle
that passes inspection as being In good
mechanical condition in so far as It's
safety factors are concerned. Cars
that reveal mechanical defects which
render them unsafe will have to be put
in good order before the official State
sticker will be issued to the owner.
Brakes Are Great Factor.
"The proposed 'Save-a-Life' inspec-
ton of autos will be devoted chiefly to
the brakes, horns, lights, steering
mechanism, windshield wiperS and
mirrors" Commissioner Baughman
said. These are the items most likely
to get out of order on the average auto
and truck, and statistics show that they
are the most frequent causes OF acct
dents.
1--WE want no unsafe autos on the
roads of Maryland and cooperation OF
every citizen and motorist in getting
toward saving lives and preventing &C
cidentS.
1T is perfectly obvious that the best
driver in the world cannot stop car
that has no brakes or warn pedestrt-
ans and other cars If the horn is not
! working. Inspection Of drivers Is not
sufficient; the vehicle they drive also
must be in a safe condition.
Forty per cent Of deaths from auto
accidents In the United States are
caused by defects in the mechanical
| condition of the auto itself. A mod
ern auto is good for tens of thousands
of miles of service and it is entirely
safe in the hands of a careful driver
but being piece of machinery, 1t re-
quires regular mechanical inspection at
least once year to keep it in good
running order and to operate it eco
nomically and safely"

tire. Generally the right rear tire
wears the fastest, the left rear next
then the right front. The left front
wears slowest.
Service men recommend that drivers
change their tires from front to rear
and vice versa whenever the rear tires
are worn more than the front ones
because the rear tires will naturally be
worn out first If left in that position
The user who wants uniform results
should make the change after the rear
tires are about one-half worn down.
Changing tires in this way prevents
intermittent failures from excessive
wear on one wheel and gives the motor
ist longer service from all his tires so
they will all wear out at about the same
time.

been paved. This is the link between
Omaha and Dunlap, Iowa. At the same
time, 1t assures good all-weather
route from Omaha to the East.
"One of the important accomplish
ments in the Southwest was the paving
of the stretch on u. S. No. 80 from
Abilene to Sweetwater, Texas. This
goes long way toward eliminating the
bad road between Dallas and FL Paso
and completing the work under way
on u. S. 80 for some time
"These outstanding additions to the
Nations network Of highways, together
with others of lesser Importance in
every State, have done much to facili-
tate the use Of the roads by motor vaca-
tioniSts."
