Shes an American. Does she want to learn
japanese? Not at all She's satisfied with the
languages which she knows.
After her foster mother died, William Baeder
Adamson, widower and childless, adopted the
young Japanese Cinderella legally with the
consent Of her mother That was in April, 1880,
IL days after he had made the will which
rounded out her story of complete Americana
zation.
y this will, which left an estate of over
5000, 900, Miss Adamson was to receive the
income from trust fund Of $500, 900. The
remainder of the estate divided in half
between Miss Adamson and Mr.. AdamSons
nephew, William Adamson, who lives with his
wife and children in Bryn Mawr.

the will was probated,' Miss Adamson
said. II always called Mr.. Adamson daddy

dead. My own mother is now in Japan. Mr.
Adamsons will provides that If I die without
heirs 100000 shall go to my mother from my
part OF the money, and the rest shall go back
to the estate"
Fudge" Adamson seems to have acquired

THE ACCIDENT PROBLEM

The accident problem is of vital in
terest to every citizen.
During 1880 accidents accounted
for the deaths of $4,000 persons, and
10, 600, 600 injuries. For these acct
dents the American people paid 49,
$50, 600, 600.
Only five diseases cause more
deaths than accidents, and between
the ages TO five and fourteen, ac-
cidents cause more than twice as
many deaths as the most important
diseases. The death rate from ac-
cidents in this country is twice as high
as in the principal Europen countries.
,, The motor vehicle leads all other
causes, accounting for 80, 600 deaths
in 1880, followed by home accidents
with 80, 600, and industrial accidents
totalling $4,000.
But there is brighter side to the
accident picture. Child deaths have
been decreased by persistent Safety"
education. Accidents have been re-
duced % per cent in two years by
1900 industrial concerns reporting to
the National Safety Council. The
number of commercial trucks involv-
ed in accidents had gone down 10
per cent since 1927. And, in
scheduled air transport, the death
rate declined 81 per cent from 1928
to 1880.
But when $1,000 people can be
killed in single year in automobiles,
homes and industries, every motor
lists, every employee and all other
citizens must recognize their own
Individual responsibility to help re-
duce the accident toll!

RULING AGAINST LARGE
TRUCKS

The State of Pennsylvania has
placed a ban on trunks measuring
more than thirty-three feet in length
and on combinations of more than
seventy feet.
D. Marshall Schroeder, Acting
Commissioner of Motor Vehicles,
said the new ruling would not seri.
ously affect Maryland motor trans
portation as there are only about six
dealers in the State who operate
trucks measuring more than the
limits prescribed by Pennsylvania.
The Maryland Motor vehicle law
has a section which is adequate in
keeping unwieldly trucks from the
highways, Mr.. Schroeder said. The
commission is empowered to revoke
the license of any truck which is
large enough to be unsafe. About
ninty-five per cent of the trucks
and trailers exceeding the Pennsyl-
vania limits are used by dealers haul
ing automobiles from factories, he
said.

THE WAY OUT

eve believe that there is a way
out for the American farmer" said
c. E. Huff, president Of the National
Grain Corporation, recently, "and
that the key is organization and
cooperation. We believe that only
through organization for distribution
and sales on a national basis will the
farm producer be able to cope with
organized industry all around him,
make his production profitable and
maintain the individual farm as cur
rent fact"
It is probable that the farmer has
suffered less from low prices for
agricultural products than from the
fact that his share of the ultimate
sale price has too often been extrem-
ely small.
The farmer is left to hold the sack.
"a single farmer, doing business
with large dealer, is at an obvious
disadvantage. A hundred farmers,
selling together, are at less of a dis
advantage. And ten or fifty thous-
and farmers, demanding a fair profit
for themselves, have the advantage
on their side. Mass action, both in
production and sales, has made
American industry what it is today.
1t can produce the same good re-
suits for the American farmer with
reasonable prices for the consumer.

STATE COAL

An informal meeting design
ed to stimulate the consump-
ton of Maryland coal by native
institutions, industries and pri-
vate citizens was called by Gov
ernor Richie for last week, to
be attended by civic officials,
industrial representatives and
mining interests.
A movement was inaugural
ed several months ago by the
mining industry of the state to
increase the sale of Maryland
produced coal.
The majority of the coal
burned in the state now is pro-
duced in outside common

Purchase of Maryland coal
for use in Maryland institutions

SCHOOLS MUST PREPARE
FOR NEW PROBLEMS

The public schools have the re-
sponsibility of preparing the youth to
meet the changing conditions of the
social order, writes William John
Cooper, United States Commissioner
of Education, in an artical in the
United States Daily. He urged that
teachers prepare their pupils to meet
and successfully cope with the prob
lens with which they will be faced in
life. The article reads, in part:
obviously, in adjudication chang
ing so rapidly, as is the present, the
teachers most valuable contribution
to his pupils consists in showing
them how to face problems fearlessly
and attack them scientifically.
''But he will also need to make
some additions to their equipment.
Surveying the age in which he lives
himself, he must select those trends
which seem most significant and
help his charges to develop in their
youth those habits and attitudes
which viii serve them in good stead
in their adult years.
AS new kinds of minds enter the
schools new devices in education
must be developed.
1T may be asked what would we
do with these boys and girls if by
legislative enactment we were COM
PEELED to take care of all of them in our
schools until they were II, IS, or
perhaps even q years of age.
Il offer here three suggestions:
The educator today must somehow
or other keep the young citizens of
tomorrow in the school.
First, until he can prepare him
better to utilize the leisure time
which he will have as an adult.
Second, to help him establish the
habits and acquire the knowledge
which will enable him to care proper
ly for his health; and
Third, to afford him information
and the desire to vote intelligently in
a social organization which depends
on him as citizen not only of his
city, county, state and nation, but in
very fact, of the world, and to enable
him the better to do his part in solv'
ing problems increasingly economic
in character and international in
scope"

ROAD SIGNS REMOVED

A final three-day drive to force
illegal and obsolete signs from Mary
land roads has resulted in the re-
moval of 2,796 billboards from the
State highway, Harry D. Williar, Jr.,
chief engineer of the State Roads
Commission has announced;
In previous drive, during the
first three drys of July, 1884 signs
were taken from along State roads,
making a total of 81, $50 posters re-
moved by the two campaigns. The
second sweep began Aug. II.
AS in the first effort, about fifty
trucks and 200 men of the mainten-
