Men! Danish Those
Pirnples Right Now

Isn't it a pity to see a fellow with
looking features-but his whole
appearance is ruined by pimply
face?
People shun him those ugly
blemishes are so disgusting. to them,
girls even hate to dance with him.
How would you like to have a per-
son say to you, Tomorrow morn
ing when you wake up you will no
tice that your pimples have started
to disappear-in three days they'll
be gone-in a week you'll have a
clear, velvety skin"
This is exactly what Peterson'S
Ointment offers you and if your ski
isn't marvelously cleared your money
will be returned.
Thursey Pentecost of Springfield,
Tenn. says: al had used several kinds
Of Ointment. but they did not help. 1
used PetersOn's 3 or 4 times and my
face was at last cleared of pimpIes"
Put your faith in Peterson's Oint-
ment and be free from pimples and
blackheads in a weeks time-one 80
cent box will prove it-all drug stores.

SCHOOL NURSES
CUT CHILDREN
DISEASE TOLL
Pure Milk Crusades and
! Sanitation Efforts Are
Given Credit.

Marked reduction in diseases Of
children, directly traceable to hy-
CHEMICAL efforts of school nurses, is
revealed in the annual report sub
mitted by them to DR.. Herman G.
Morgan, public health officer, today.
While in other years summer
complaints have led the mortality
lists, the opposite is true in today's
report, respiratory diseases being the
paramount factor.
Credit for this reversal is given
to pure milk crusades and other
sanitation efforts of the depart
ment.
Comparison of the two years in
major diseases follows:

Debtors to the bank have slowed

Combined claims Of depositors

Forty-eight school nurses made
2l,3l8 visits to schools in 1890, the
report shows. There were 48,O40
special inspections and 25O,241
routine inspections.
Financial depression that swept
the city caused $50 children to be
taken to the city hospital for free
operations or treatments while there
were only 658 such cases in 1929.
In 1929 total of 343 were able to
pay part of their hospital bill, but

SURE!' ADMITS
BILL THOMPSON
Better Be That Than a

Chicago Chief Executive.

CHICAGO. Jan. 3o.-Big Bill

Gay that he is for:
Bill Thompson for mayor. Amer

morality.
And that he is against:
King George, prohibition, and all
other aspirants for mayor.
The occasion was busy day in
what promises to be the. most ex-
citing mayoralty race Chicago has
seen. The place was the mayors
Congress hotel suite, overlooking
Grant park on the lake front.
Well again, after his operation for
appendicitis, Thompson, in his
booming voice, "recollected" the
past, discussed the present and fore
cast, in measure, the future,

He chewed at cold cigar. waving

The Big bill smile and the
Thompson handshake that have
made him one of the most colorfuI
OF Americas politicians were back
on the job for the campaign.
What do you intend to do if re-
eleeted?" he was asked.
Make Chicago the most beautiful,
cleanest, healthiest city in the
world"
He pointed south to where the
first worlds fair buildings are being
erected.
IF it hadn't been for your mayor
there wouldn't be worlds fair site.
He pulled 1t out of the lake"
What about prohibition"
It's the worst curse ever visited
on the nation"
will you enforce it?"
SIaps at Reformers
Your mayor will do his duty.
When he raises his hand to God to
take the oath, he'll do his duty as
The law prescribes, whether they
call him Kaiser Bill or traitor-what
the hell does he care?"
What do you think of re-
formers?'
"Crookedest institutions on
earth"
What do you think the special
grand jury investigating the police
department will turn up?"
They won't go to work until some
dupe puts up hundred thousand

Chicago was broke a year ago.
What is the financial condition
now?"
When your mayor took over
Chicago four years ago from Mayor

wanted to tell our school children
Washington was a traitor and a
rebel. To prove he wasn't pro-

The mayors attention was called
to the fact that his enemies call
him 'circus mayor"
Sure, I'm circus man. Better
be that than an undertaken. When

friend who was an auctioneer.
Business was bad. Finally he
thought of a wonderful plan. He
got a German band and keg of
beer. The band played, the people
drank and he sold his stuff"

Worse Than War!

During Is months of the World war, 5O,5l0 members of the American Exped-' tionary Force were killed in action or died of wounds During the Is months pre- ceding January, 1o31, 50,9O0 people were killed in automobile accidents in this coun- try. There could be no better illustration of the seriousness of the automobile accident situation.
 According to survey by the Travellers Insurance Company, the leading cause of accidents in lo30 yves failure to give right of way, which accounted for l5 per cent of deaths and 3l.5 per cent of injuries. Sec ond was excessive speed, which was re- sponsble for 2l per cent of all accidents. and third, driving on the wrong side of the road which totaled l6 per cent.
 Higher speed is a natural result of i'm proved roads and cars. But the other two primary causes of accidents which to- gether accounted for 27 per cent of deaths and AZ per cent of injuries - amount tO SlHlple ISHOidHSe, leShleSSHeSS OI Sdleieoo- ness. They show improper training on the par. of the motorist coupled with inade- quate enforcement of traffic laws. That eurbed by examining and licensing laws such accidents could be at least partially and by adequate enforcement of modernized traffic codes, is we'll within the limits of plausibility.
 Every year complete and detailed re- sumes of the previous years accident record are prepared. Study of them should show what enforcement is needed, what can be accomplished A few states, in a period of rising hazards, have managed to appreciably decrease accidents within their borders. All other states can do the same.

states one must have permit to carry con cealed weapons The second amendment of the Constitution says: "A well reg ulated militia, being necessary to the seeur- ity of a free state, the right of the people to bear arms, shall not be infringed.' How ever, the right of the people to keep and bear arms is not right granted by the Con- stitution. It is a right which does not de- pend upon the Constitution for its exist ence The second amendment declares that this right shall not be infringed, but this means no more than it shall not be in- fringed by Congress. A state can regulate the carrying of arms in any manner it pleases through methods in accordance with its own constitution. The first 10 amendments to the Constitution, popularly known as the bill of rights have always been construed as applying only to the federal government They were intended not to restrain the states, but to protect them from the federal power. ;" The Pathfinder.

According to all reports from the Capitol Governor Cross does not intend to take any action against Commissioner of Aeronauties Charles L. Morris or his deputy. Jack Lenox. for their participation in the fatal air tragedy at Newington in July. A find ing of the Hartford county grand jury blamed the accident on Mir Lenox who it is believed, was the only civilian flyer in the vicinity of the army air squadron. The presence of this civilian plane is believed to have caused the army planes to have shifted their formation. In doing so two of the planes crashed and two men were killed. The grand jury held Mir Lenox responsible for the crash and censured Mir Morris tor withholding information and not conduct ing a thorough investigation. However, 1t must be remembered that the grand jury also found that there was no cause for criminal action against any individual, so the govern or very we'll can't order one. As to the question of voluntary resignations we won- der if that would improve the morals of the aeronauties department. Of course if States Attorney Alcorn decides to prosecute such action may become imperative. But until then the less said the better of for all con- eerned

Prison Terms

The special Illinois prison eommisslon which has been studying penal problems in Europe is expected to make some revolu- tionary proposals. According to Judge Dennis E. Sullivan it will recommend these innovations: First there will be no more maximum sentences. When a prisoner IS adjudged guilty, the judge will impose the minimum sentence, Then the parole board will keep him under observation and hold him in prison as much longer as it seems necessary. If found hopeless menace to society, he could be segregated for life. The present system virtually gives an offender maximum sentence redueble by good be- havior. parole or pardon.
 Other contemplated reforms are system of logical rewards and punishments. parole boards sitting continuously, wardens who are criminologists, properly trained prison guards. smaller prisons. continuous obser- yation by alienists and psychiatrlsts, and abolition of solitary confinement and indis- criminate herding. The general idea IS not to ''vindicate the law" but to cure the criminal.
