Starr Children
Write of Birds,
Medicinal Plants

RIO GRANDE CITY, March 30
Essay contests in the rural schools
Of Starr county have resulted in
the collection of much valuable
data, according to Mrs. Florence j.
Scott. county superintendent.
Children competed on two sub
jects which were: Plants Used in
Starr County for Medicinal Pur-
poses and Birds We Know and
See in Starr County"
The first of the series brought to
light the names of forty trees, plants
and shrubs to which medicinal
properties are ascribed. A compila-
ton of this material is being pre-
pared by Mrs. Scott for the Texas
Folk Lore Journal as well as per-
manent data for the schools.
In the bird series, a valuable
contribution was secured by the de-
scription Of species of birds found
locally. lYany of which differ from
ordinary North American or semi
tropical classifications.
DR.. l.. H. Pammel. Iowa State Col
lege, a recent visitor to the VAL
ley, commended the work of Starr
county children and urged that all
available material be forwarded to
the Botanical Observatory at
Washington.
Mrs. Scott stated that these es-
says were a part of her general pro-
gram and were aimed at familiariz-
ing the children with an appreci-
alton Of their county. The first Of
the essay group concerned historical
values Of the county and border.

Need of Tolerance
Stressed In Film,
'Abie's Irish Rose

Instances Of a girl Of one religion
marrying a man of another are fire.
quent.
And it is often that Irish and
Jewish families are brought to-
gether through the bonds of matri-
mony.
In those instances, a wonderful
spirit Of tolerance is displayed by
the men and women of the families"
declares Anne Nichols, author and
producer OF "Abie's Irish Rose"
made into a Paramount screen at
traction, and now showing at the
Ritz theater, Weslaco.
1T was from such a case that I
got my inspiration for the story Of
Able
After 7 had written it. I assem-
bled a cast Of able players, among
them Bernard Corey, who had
been doing a big part in 'Katinka,'
an Arthur HammerStein production.
Il explained the plot to each of
the players, and 1t was then that 7
learned that Corey, who went to
the synagogue regularly, had some
time before married Josephine Con-
don. an Irish girl.
The story of Mr.. and Mrs. Corey
reads not unlike that of my central
characters in 'Abie's Irish Rose
Corey kept secret from his
parents the fact that he had mar
ried one of another religion, and his
wife did likewise. When it came to
the discovery Of the marriage, each
family took the news like Trojans,
and took the girl and boy into their
hearts.
THAT spirit Of tolerance is Just
what I have been trying to further
for years. There is too much big
otry and racial misunderstanding in
this country. 1t should be eliminated,
and if I can help with 'Abie's Irish
Rose I will be extremely happy"
Anne Nichols was the advisory
supervisor on the Paramount Pro-
duction of "Abie's Irish Rose" which
was directed BY Victor Fleming,
with Charles Rogers and Nancy
Carroll as the featured players.

LIST MILLION CARS
Southern California Has rs Per
Cent Of Total U. s. Auto
Registration.

Southern California has passed the
million mark in number of motor We
hicle registrations, according to the
touring bureau of the Automobile Club
of Southern California. The check
shows that in the IS southern counties
there are 1,077,4S2 vehicles registered
out Of total of l,859,432 in the State
This is rs per cent of the entire regis
tration for the United States. These
registrations include pleasure cars,
trucks, motor cycles and trailers.
Unless the population of the State is
more than $780, 900, it is indicated
that California will retain first place
IN the number of motor vehicles per
capita in the United States, as it will
have one registration for every three
persons, or probably q fraction less than
three
This huge registration at the begin
ming OF 1929 indicates that residents
OF the State have made an enormous
investment In motor transportation
Assuming that the average investment
per car is $500. which is a low esti-
mate, 1t is indicated that California has
spent nearly 81 500, 900 900 in automo-
biles that are in operation now on the
highways.
Californians last year used more than
1000, 100000 gallons of gasoline to
operate their cars, on which they paid
more than 100000, 900 in gasoline taxes
With all this showing, it is indi-
Gated that 1929 will be big year in the
automobile industry Announcements
from manufacturers are in effect that
more cars will be made than ever before
indicating that during the present year
Caiifornias consumption Of new cars
will be the greatest In its history in
spite of the fact that it already leads

TESTED BY RAILWAY
Western Line Plans to Supplement

Tests are being made by the South

car-with a view to determining how
and where it can be used to best ad-
vantage in public service.
If the tests are successful. the Brill
Westinghouse car just received from the
East will become the forerunner Of
other cars Of this type to be operated by
the company.
The car introduces to the West a re-
cent development in modern transport
tation, designed to meet special require
ments. 1t is one of the most powerful
units of its kind and embodies all the
latest features of its line.
Manufactured at Philadelphia, the
car is equipped with electric generators
and motors from plant in East Pitts
burgh. PA. The motive equipment in
cludes two gas engines developing to-
tai Of 500 horsepower.
Each engine drives a large electric
generator. The electric current Is sup
piled to four traction motors, each
| rated at $50 horsepower, geared to the
car axles.
Specifications call for the car to be
used as unit or to haul two standard
day coach trailers at maximum speed
of so miles an hoGr.
The car is 70 feet long weighs

RECKLESS DRIVING
NOT ALONE SPEEDING
Baltimore Magistrate Declares
Many Motorists Misccnstrue
Meaning Of Charge.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE. March MANY mo-
florists who are charged with reck-
less driving construe it as meaning only
that they are driving at a high rate Of
speed, according to Magistrate Alva
Lamkin of the Traffic Court, who said
that it is almost impossible to convey
to the mind Of the average driver that
he may be fiagrantly guilty of reck-
lessness and yet his speed may be very
low.
AS an instance of reckless driving
when the motoriSt was travelling at a
very slow speed, Magistrate Lamkin re-
ferred to a case which recently was
before him.
TT was an accident involving the
automobile driver and a pedestrian
crossing the street." said the magis-
trate. THE pedestrian was within her
rights. The automobilist was approach
ing the intersection and saw the wom-
on his way, with the result that he
struck the woman and seriously injured
her.
1.-THE driver testified that he saw the
pedestrian crossing the street, and as
he was going at very low rate Of
speed and sounded his horn, he could
not comprehend why he was charged
with reckless driving. He further testi-
fed that he thought the pedestrian
would stop and permit him to continue
on his way. Here Is another case of
taking something for granted: In this
particular case the pedestrian had the
right of way and she took 1t for grant,
ed that the automobile would permit
her to continue on her way. While the
pedestrian might have reasonably taken
1t for granted that the motorist would
give her the right Of way she should
not, from a common-Sense standpoint,
have insisted upon 1t to the extent of
subjecting herself to injuries and pos
Sible fatality.
However, the automobile driver was
reckless, or, rather, he was needless.
Speaking of taking 1t for granted
that the pedestrian is going to stop
and permit the automobile to pass
brings to my mind the fact that we
have several hundred blind men going
to and from their work. A majority
OF these toilers make their way alone
and while they are able to negotiate
their journey under normal conditions,
they are not able to cope with the sit
uation which arises by reason of the
automobile. driver assuming the blind
man is going to stop.
Don't conclude that any pedestrian
Is going to stop and permit you to pass
along: When you pass q street car
standing at safety zone always think
OF the possibility of blind man cross
ing the street directly in front Of you"
