Crowd on R. R. Track,
 Commuters in Danger

Authorities of the New Haven railroad complained to the local po- lice yesterday afternoon of the ac- tions of the commuters who take the 7:2s morning train for Hart ford.
 The substance of the complaint was to the effect that they persist in crowding out in front of the train as it draws into the station. They fear that such tactics can only result in fatal injuries to some one unless the practice is stopped.
 The matter was referred to Ser geant John King and Officer Joseph Moore.

GOOD ROADS ADD TO
NEW YEARS JOYS

Happy New Year is the popular
greeting everywhere. Here's hoping
that your happiness will not be con-
fined to January l, but will continue
throughout the whole year.
Good roads will contribute to your
happiness, says Highway bulletin,
and the joy of travelling over paved
or graveled and well maintained
highways winter and summer should
make the payment of your motor
vehicle tax pleasure. For the lie
ense which you buy gives you the
privilege of travelling not only on all
of the streets and highways of Min
nesota, but other states as well. And
the money you pay for the license is
a small fraction of what it would cost
you to run your car over the roads
you had before 1921.
The money only goes on the trunk
highways and not on my local road,
you may say! But the bulletin points
out that since the trunk highway
plan was adopted, the counties and
townships, relieved of maintaining
the through routes, have been able to
devote all their funds to the second
airy roads. Twice as many miles of
feeder roads have been graveled and
improved in the last nine years as in
the whole previous history of the
state.
Furthermore, the bulletin points
out, your license tax is in lieu of the
personal property tax. In thirty-five
other states car owners pay per-
sonal property tax in addition to the
license tax, and in many of them the
license tax and personal property tax

ton.

Unclean hands carry more infec-
tions to the human body than any
other single agency. There is no
more dangerous pastime for boy or
girl than that of attempting to i'm
prove the complexion by removing
pimples from the face. 1t is not only
hazardous, but the habit has proven
fatal in a number of cases. Too Of
ten the hand carries infections.
The Educational Committee of the
Minnesota State Medical Association
in bulletin today endorses the move
ment launched by the national or
ganization warning people to keep
hands away from the face.
"In utter disregard of one of the
primary lessons in hygiene and bact-
eriology, the average person insists
upon using his hands as his careless
habits direct. He complacently rests
his face upon the hands, rubs the
hands and fingers over the face or
about the mouth, introduces the fng-
ers into the nasal cavities. mouth or
ears, and squeezes a pimple or in
grown hair with the same degree of
surety as if he were an operating
surgeon whose hands were thorough
ly scrubbed and fitted with sterile
rubber Gloves" declares the bulletin.
among girls and boys, especially
during the adolescent period, the
change in skin texture and hair foil
icle formation often gives rise to a
condition of troublesome acne, or
pimples. During this period, youth
should be rigidly taught the lesson of
hands off the face. Comedones, or
blackheads, should not be expressed
or pimples squeezed. If expression
of infection becomes necessary, it
should be done aseptically. The
hygienic care of the face at this per-
iod of life is an important subject
within itself. Suffice it to say that
soap and water vigorously applied
with a rough wash cloth and the
adoption of the policy Don't pick,
don't squeeze and hands down." will

not marred by bumps, scars and
blemishes.
''The blood vessels in this area are
large and numerous. The veins
which carry the blood back to the
heart from here empty first into the
larger veins beneath the brain and
then into still larger ones before
reaching the heart.
Zone an infection of any size
occurs in the butterfly area, two
things may happen. First, it may re-
main localized, run it's usual course
and subside. Second, it may have
been squeezed or tempered with and
some of the bacteria forced out into
the veins; then we have condition
known as septicemia, or usually
spoken of as blood poisoning. The
bacteria are then carried to all parts
of the body. Sometimes, and as is
usually the case with infections in
this area, the large sinuses or veins
beneath the brain become infected,
and then meningitis may occur.

Evading Gas Taxes

BECAUSE of the lack of uniformity among the
II states in the matter of gasoline taxes a consid-
cradle traffic in ''booteg" gasoline has grown up,
in spite of all efforts of officials to suppress it.
The plan is of course, to buy gasoline in state
with low tax, transport it the line and sell it
IN state having higher tax, without reporting the
sale to the authorities This has been done on large
scale by of tank wagons, but through increased
vigilance by state inspectors great many such law
volators have been apprehended and made to pay
tax and fine besides
In Missouri alone $178,574 in evaded taxes and
fines collected during the last four years, while
no knows how many of the "bootleggers" escaped
detection.
The practice will no doubt continue to greater

Liked in This City

At the close of morning service
at the Gospel Tabernacle Sunday
Rev. E. B. Peterson announced his
resignation as pastor of that con-
gregation to take effect September

result of being unanimously called
to take the pastorate of the Bethel
Church of Sisseton, S. D.
Rev. Peterson is native of Bos-
ton, Mass, and he came to this
city little more than a year ago.
His work in this community has
been one of unusual progress, for
during his administration the
membership of the local church
has more than doubled.
During his period of labor in this
community he has proven that his
splendid training and sterling
character have fitted him for a
very high-type of ministry. He has
won the esteem of a host of friends
and acquaintance, who while wish
ing to see him remain in the city,
offer their best wishes to him for
a prosperous ministry in his newly
chosen field.
Rev. Peterson also founded the
Gospel Tabernacle at Little Sank,
which has progressed favorably.
This church stands as a monument
of consecrated service.
The Bethel Church of Sisseton,
S. D., has a large congregation
and affords a greater opportunity
for work in the future, in which
everyone is confident the resigning
pastor will succeed.
According to Rev. Peterson his
successor has not yet been select
ed but it is understood the pulpit
will be supplied by guest pastors
until the congregation finds a suit
