ments of the day. It represents one of the few organized
efforts that mankind is making to understand the nature
Of this mechanical age Of ours. We have called innu-
merable machines into being, and we have to live with
them for better of for worse; but we have devoted re-
markably little time to the job Of finding out Just how
we can get along with them without getting hurt.
In the old days there was little need for a safety
movement. The factory hand worked in a small shop
and generally used his own tools: II he were not more
than ordinarily clumsy-in which case he would not
have his job at all-he hardly had a chance Of hurting
himself.
Today, though, it is different. The worker is sur
rounded by a multitude Of whirligigs that can grind the
life out of HIM If he is not careful. A moments tnatten-
ton can cripple him for life; a bit Of carelessness can kill
him. The effort to keep from being hurt has to be or
ganized-and 1t is to the credit Of American industry
that it has been organized.
Indeed, the same sort of thing, to a lesser extent, Is
true outside of the factory as well as in. Mechanical
traffic kills 10000 men, women and children a year. We
have to be watchful, even on our more casual errands.
Carelessness has become fearfully expensive.
The safety movement is a sincere intelligent attempt
to meet some Of the worst of the problems that the ma
chine has raised. That is why it deserves countrywide
support.

Pertinent Questions

The Indiana Taxpayers association recently directed
a series of questions to all candidates for state offices.
The questions covered a wide range Of tax matters, in
GLIDING asking whether or not the candidates knew their
own local tax rate. whether they had studied their local
budgets to see if money was spent wisely. II they were
familiar with the tax rate over a number Of years. If they
had ever worked to keep taxes down, and II they were
willing to advocate economy In government.
A major obstacle in the path Of tax reduction is the
laxity Of public officials in insisting on economical gov
eminent. When the people analyze the attitude Of Of
fice-seekers and office -holders in regard to taxes, waste
will begin to be replaced by efficiency In the conduct Of
public affairs. Other states should follow Indiana's
lead in challenging the qualifications Of candidates.

badly that he can't believe the doctor when he tells him
that he Is well and can go about his business.
The Christian Science Monitor reports running across
a folder which tells the same story in another figure:

strike every time q minnow approached the glass

SO long as fear remains, business will stay quiet.
But sooner or later the country viii find that the doc.

THE EARL OF SANDWICHES
INVENTION

About the middle Of the eighteenth
century al English earl who was an
i~nveterate card player invented a new
kind Of quick lunch. Not wishing to
take any time away from his card
playing, he asked the waiter to bring
him a slice Of meat between two slices
Of bread 70 he could eat from one
hand while holding the cards with
the other. Many Of his friends started
doing the same thing, and this soon
became a popular way Of using food
for a hurried lunch. As he was the
early of Sandwich, these combinations
Of bread and meat we're soon called
sandwiches"
Sandwiches are now Of many kinds,
ranging from the simple two slices Of
bread with a filling to the fancy sand
wiches consisting Of three or four
slices Of toasted bread with different
kinds of filling between each slice and
garnished with olives, pimentos, to-
matoes, lettuce, mayonnaise, gravy and
whatnot.
If you will watch the average Amer
lean dine you will soon become con-
vinced that sandwiches form the
principal luncheon all over this CONT
nent.
All kinds Of mixtures are used for
making the filings Of sandwiches,
with white. rye, wholewheat or toasted
bread used for the covering. The least
injurious Filings are made Of meat,
cheese, olives, avocados, sardines,
chicken, ground nuts, lettuce, chopped
celery, ground raw cabbage or other
wholesome non-starchy vegetables.
The least wholesome sandwiches are
made Of tomatoes, jelly. jam. onions.
pickles, gravy or acid dressings. II
sandwiches are used at all, the whole
wheat is the only bread that should
be used, and when I say wholewheat
I mean the pure wheat-not the imi-
tationS often found on the market.
Wholewheat combines better with the
proteins and the fatty foods than the
white bread, but. at the same time, 1t
should be remembered that whole
wheat contains q large amount OF
starch and should not be mixed with
acid fruits or acid dressings or you
will have unwholesome combinations.
The ordinary sandwich is not as
wholesome as q well balanced meal.
However, it continues to be popular
because 1t takes the place Of a small
meal and is usually Of an agreeable
flavor. It is also commercially profit
able for lunch counters to put out
sandwiches which may be prepared in
advance of the noontime rush.
Leaves of raw lettuce or cabbage, or
finely chopped celery, make a pal
atable addition to sandwiches and
