Reparation For Killing

It is no longer valid excuse for killing man in Pennsylvania to plead that he was mistaken for d deer A hunter has been convicted in Wilkes Barre for making that mistake. The example will tend to make hunters everywhere more careful. To many people, the most interesting thing about the case is the form of punishment.
 Along with minimum term of two years to be served in the county jail. which may be modified under the jurys recommenda- ton of mercy, there is fine of Sl 900 to be paid to the victims widow. We might have fewer killings. especially of the deliber- ate kind. if it were the general practice to make a slayer support his victims family for reasonable period.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

 Is the wearing of a mustachc conducive to health and beneficial to the cycsight? (H M.)
 Answer--lt has no effect on the health or the eyesight.

 Answer--Wall paper often contains arsenic Gin the color) and one exposed 10 the dust of this may suffer from chronic arsenic poisoning. Pallor and red eyelids are common signs of such poisoning. A dose of half a tcaspoonful of sodium thiosuIphatc in one-half gassful of water once week or so might not be a bad thing for one with chronic arsenic poisoning.
 Ncrvy or NcrveIcss

 Answer--Thcsc are ngurativc expressions and have no actual significance There is no such thing as nerve energy. nerve strength or nerve or nervous exhaustion. Nerve or nerve cells or tissues or brain tissues do not create or expend energy They merely transmit m- pulses or receive or give them out. So far as scientific observation goes. the working or func- tioning Of nerves brain uses no energy. or so little that 1t b negligible.

Here, There And Euery1vhere

He was told that these tragedies brought about by the curse of liq- uOr would be stopped. It was merely question of whether the great majority of people who didn't let liquor interfere with their lives should sacrifice some. of their personal rights for the bene- fit of small majority who were constantly in the tolls of dilemma as result of booze.
 We read "The Face on the Bar room Floor" and others of the sentimental pieces directed against the menace of John Barlcycorn and we were duly impressed. To- day we hear about the curse of booze.
 It has become distinguished 10 be drunk. 1t is rare good fortune If we manage to scrape up 0 couple of quarts of questionable liquid with which to hall n new year. We read of the auto acci- dents and the fights and poison death, and we do not stop to think of the curse of booze. We merely wonder whether the stuff " have home in the closet is good.
 The noble experiment has not helped the situation at all. We shake the bottle and examine the beads and smell 1t. and still we are not sure until they send for the ambulance whether 1t really was quick poison that we drank instead of something that kills slowly.
 Where are all the poets that sob bed over the curse of the saloon in the good old days?

which is defined as diving at or throwing the body through the air. Again in rule 6 we learn that Players on defense are for bidden to strike an opponent on the head, neck or face with hand. wrist forearm or elbow. ..."
 We don't anticipate a decrease in football attendance figures next fall due to these rule changes. Perhaps attendanee may fall of. Hard times undoubtedly will still be with us. But since they did not prevent a steady outpouring of fans last fall there IS no rea- son to believe that the decrease in turnstile clicks will be so noticeable in l932. We look for superior brand of play in which speed and shrewdness will be the important factors. The light Shifty team should not experience too much trouble with the bone -bruisng type in the modern game of football And we look for fewer fatalities. In fact we hope there will be none 10 mar the season.

Clareless Pavements

Some one has thought of putting color in paving material not for the purpose of in- creasing the general gaudiness of contem- porary life but as relief to the eyes of motorists. Some surfacing materials used on highways shine with peculiarly pain full radiance on bright days. so that drivers who travel many miles in day suffer ser- ous eyestran from the binding light. With coors which would relieve this strain mixed scientifically in the paving material. the result might be both pleasanter and safer. The elimination of glare should eliminate many accidents.
 There are other possibilities which the humorists and cynlcs will not overlook. such as colors in harmony with the cbarae- ter of the community approached good idea, however, should not be ridiculed out of existence before it has been tried. Pave. ments of restful grass green would be blessing to motorists along those highways which arc destitute of shade trees or of any thing oveler than billboards.

Fire-Setting Bremen

Nine members of the fire company in small town in New York state have recently been arrested for setting fire 10 buildings The big idea, it appears. was 10 relieve their own boredom. There weren't enough fires in the community, and the firemen sought little activity for their company.
 The fact that none of the fires they are occused of setting in the past two years be- came serious. and that property loss has been low, doesn't lessen the enormity ot their ohense. They say they were con- graduated on several occasions for their promptness in getting to the fire and put ting it out. That was part of their plan. but it was luck that the plan never mis- carried When people play with fire. they sometimes get burned.

THE THERMOMETER
(New York Herald-Trlbune)

(NeW York Herald-IrlDune)
 Calvin Cooldge's description of the true Vermonter Is tcrse, but many outlanders who have visited the Green Mountain state will take pleasure in doubting that 1t js quite accurate The Vermonter, like Yer mont soIl MT Coolidge told the Vermont association of Boston. "is a little inhospitable, but always re- liable" None will quarrel with the conclusion. Solid and unwavering as Mt Mansfield is the ture Yer monter. The first part of the say ing, however, sounds strange to those who, all the way from Brat tleboro to st ,Johnsbury, from Woodstock to Burlington, back and forth, up and down, have found Vermonters hospitable.
 It may be granted that the Yer monter Is q little standoffiah--more reserved in manner, certainly, that Virginiar. But he does not know himself If he thinks he is inhosp,t- able. The Tribune fresh air fund in It's experience with Vermont hosts and friends of New York children has any amount of evidence to the contrary. People who summer In Vermont or pags through the beau tiful hill country on tour have q welcome to their liking. No. "in- hospitable" does not fit. MT Cool idge for once seems to have missed the right word~-Whatever 1t may be--to describe q native Vermont trait easier to feel than to express.

War Costs

On February 17. 1918. the U. s. war department at Washington es- timated that its gross expenditures in the year ending June 30, would be $8,790.00O.O 900. Expenditures to December 31 were given as 1.- 762,000,000.
 Rumania received an ultima tum on that date from the Soviet government demanding immediate evacuation of Bessarabia by Ru- manian and counter-revolutoinary troops.
 The right to transport Russian troops through Rumanian terri tory was demanded in the same ultimatum.

is part and parcel of the most popular schemes. The interstate commission on un- employment insurance mas just turned in its recommendations In time they will be presented 10 the various state legislatures. Just now James w. Hook of New Haven. a member of the presidents board on relief work. believes that the voluntary eontribu- non of the worker is an essential of an un- employment insurance plan. However. be- fore any such plan can be adopted most legislatures will have to commit themselves to program of old age pensions or unem- ployment insurance and there seems to be SO much opposition to the former that it may carry over 10 the latter.

CROSS AS A FAVOIlITE SON.
(New Britain JIerald)

Governor Cross probably is quite surprised at this boom for the presidential nomination on the democratic ticket, which has been started for him in Bridgeport, Be- ing man wise to politics, he probably Is not much aroused over the possibilities.
 The boomsters desire an instruct ed delegation from Connecticut for the governor. That means n dele gation instructed for favorite son.
 If q large number of states in- struct delegations for favorite sons manifestly the convention will be in quite q jam at the beginning. But that is the object of the fav- orite son business. After due bal loting with nobody getting an ad- vantage, the delegations which were instructed for favorite sons can change their support to more likely candidates; which means they will be controlled by politi- clans doing the wire-pulling.
 The favorite son racket is 0 part of this preconvention game. Governor Cross is well versed In how the job is done& he has studied his politics. He probably will not be deeply interested in this boom- let until he hears that half q dozen other state are sending delegates instructed to vote for him. As the object of q faction in the democra- tic party Is to create as many fav- orite son candidates as possible 1t is quite likely that there will be several dozen favorite sons men toned. all to be knocked down like ten pins just as soon as tho con vention managers get to work Tn the wire pulling department.

Recognizing the Danger

It was perfectly obvious last fall tha,
 when the college football officials met 10
 discuss rules revision there would be d serl
 ous effort made to end such plays as were responsible. directly or indirectly, for an
 alarming number of deaths last year. So smuch publicity was accorded the thirty or Iorty deaths on the 2rdron tbat there was
 but one thing left for the National Football
 Rules Committee to do. namely eliminate such plays as the flying wedge flying block. and various mass formations in which the slves of young men were often endangered. r There were plenty of men who were Aquiek to declare that there were other .things at fault than the rules which per emitted rough tactics but in the main the 4general public on which college football is -ioday totally dependent had its way. There %can still be spirited contests of brain and s-brawn without consequent. danger to the aeontestants. After all mothers and fathers szdo not send their boys 10 college to become -football martyrs. And even if the sport is rplying for tuition for many player who 4mght not be able 10 afford lt otherwise we swant to sec football games in which the agood health of the player is preserved.
 The salient points in the rules revision as Awe view them are embodied in numbers 2. g. and G. The flying wedge is eliminated. 1bht at the same time there is still left in 1the game the chance of seeing run for Touchdown from the kiek-o The rule says that "On kickoff or free kick the for smation of the team receiving the kick off IS ssstrieted to its own 45-yard line until the
 psn is actually kicked :" In rule we find Tt will no longer be legal to use flying block or tackle of any opponent
