Unless the worlds most cour-
teous bootlegger ceases to run his
loads in along the Baltimore
Boulevard, every State and county
policeman on the road will be
driven to the point Of madness.
Driving a small black sedan,
he never fails to salute, with a
puff Of smoke, any officer he
passes, afoot, driving an automo-
bile, astride a motorcycle or
otherwise occupied.
State police have clocked him
at 80 miles an hour, and still
they say he goes away from them
like they were tied to post.
A week ago State and Prince
Georges county police heard he
was coming through and blocked
a bridge near Laurel, leaving
room for Just one car to pass.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 15.-The
amazing thing about modern mar

today, Is not that so many end dis
astrously, but that more do not.
In Judge Lindseys opinion, there
is no enterprise more important to
humanity, and none undertaken In
a more haphazard. ignorant man
ner. The average man could apply
to his business twice the knowledge
and thought he devotes to
matrimony, he thinks, and go
bankrupt quickly.
An honest, thorough education is
all that a successful marriage needs.
1T by no means is a cure-all, -
Judge Lindsey said. There have
been and will be instances of in
durable misalliance.
IncOmpatibility Cause
"But I believe it safe to say that
a large percentage of unhappy
marital endings could be prevented
by knowledge, not to speak of the
miserable unions that preserve be-
cause Of a moral aversion to divorce,
in spite of the unhappiness of one
or both parties.
THE largest single cause of
marital unhappiness, now masquer-
aiding in our courts under dozen
euphemistic names, is Incompatible

physical, or a combination. I be-
lieve physical incompatibility leads
all other causes.
Physical incompatibility is, for
the most part, a fungus that -four

Need Revision of Attitude
''What we need-what I believe
we must have--is a revision of the
adult attitude toward marriage. AT
present it is a fearsome mystery,
undertaken in an appalling fog OF
ignorance and trepidation.
"This is a condition almost pc
culiar to America, and it is sig
nificant to know that this country
trails other and older countries both
in pre-marital knowledge and in
marital success, and one in proper
ton to the other.
What is needed is a renaissance
in mass thought realization that
If the customs and habits of mat
rimony form the groundwork of the
institution itself, there can be no
harm in frank, honest, study of
the facts.
Great Strides Taken
"At present, the average young
man is sent into marriage with only
the knowledge he obtains from
back fences; the average woman
with still less.
I'VE need a national realization
that there is nothing shameful
about the thorough preparation of
children and adolescents for what
is to be their most important adult
experience.
Great strides have been taken in
recent years in the emancipation Of
decent sex literature. Works that
were bootlegged five years ago now
are legally available. This is en-
couraging.
I'VE are headed, hope, toward
the day when there will be no So

sion of one of the really significant

Curley Reminisces
New York, March 22.-Of the many
persons who add to the minor insan-
tiles of this era, one of the more sue
cessful and persistent is Jack Curley,
who not only matches wrestlers for
the various New York arenas but also
engineers marathon dances, flag
pole sittings and other freak endur-
ance tests.
AS might be imagined, many are
the amusing and odd incidents and
personalities encountered.
But there's one team In particu-
lar" recites Curley, that staged a
funny one-a married couple by the
name Of Beckland. It was owed at a
Brooklyn marathon dance. Being a
husband and wife, they went through
the usual spats about lot Of things,
and couldn't agree on lot of others.
And that's what made it funny. For
they started dancing together in the
contest and after half q dozen days,
Clarence, the husband, wanted to
quit. But the missus says NO The
next day the nissus Weekend and
agreed that maybe they had better
stop. BY this time the hubby was
stubborn and wouldn't. AS the re-

was staged in Hagerstown, Md. There,

minds Of the politicians, as they meet
in their various conventions to de-
velop candidates and issues, is the
great Democratic vote. Like Banquo's
ghost, it will not down. If many Re-
publicans desert the June primaries
and call for Democratic ballots, what
Is going to happen to candidates who
file as Republicans? In the past the
party label has not meant very much
in this state except as a stepping
stone to office. Now the party label
seems to be losing In value and the
candidates are celebrating in what
camp it would be best to land.
Not SO long ago, William Lemke of
Fargo, League candidate for Con-
gress, suggested that all Nonpartisans
file as Democrats. It Is not too late
for them to do that now. Maybe the
10000 votes will revive Mr.. Lemkes
unusual II not illogical suggestion.
When Townley organized the Nom
partisan League he used the Repub-
lican party as the vehicle to storm
the citadels of power and patronage.
He filed only one candidate as Dem
ocrat and that was Casey for state
treasurer. The embattled farmers,
much as they wanted Casey, could
not shift over to the Democratic COL
umn In the November elections and
Casey was the only one who fell by
the wayside. Even though the jour
mails Of the militant Townley issued
warnings such as Don't Forget
Casey" the Republican habit was too
great and Casey lost office, even
though he remained loyal to his
party.
The speculation now is: Will farm
ers stay in the June Republican
primaries or wash their hands Of that
party and 90 Democratic? There are
q lot of clever politicians in North
Dakota trying to answer that ques-
ton.
There is this much to say about the
whole chaotic condition. Regardless !
Of Lemke's advice sometime ago, it
seems certain that the two contend
ng political factions, the T. v. A. and
the Nonpartisan League will choose
to run as Republicans.
Senator Nye will oppose Shafer
unless someone upsets the
apple cart at Valley City next month.
Burtness, Hall, Lemke and
Sinclair will be opposing congression-
al candidates. Burtness, Hall and
Sinclair united with the dry con-
,ressmen in the recent test vote. Bur-
lick has declared wet and Lemke has
aot gone on record as yet, but as the
proceeds he may have to
lake a definite stand.
X X X
The voters generally are going to
be interested most in national issues
IN the June primaries. These will be
in selecting United
States senator and two congressman.
State issues will be more or less OBJ
scured by national ones.
Definite positions must be taken on
many perplexing national issues. The
voters are in no mood to stand |
hedging and lodging. They are 60
ing to smoke out the candidates and
try at least to see if they square up
with the demands of the present
crisis.

must be held for certain definite

ture, distribution in sterilized bottles
and proper handling of the bottles
that are collected from the homes

Instances are recorded in which

and peddled 1t from door to door in
nearby communities, without observ-
ing any sanitary precautions. and at

law.
One instance Is recorded in which
such q farmer peddler delivered milk
to q home where there was scarlet
fever and each day collected the bot
ties from this home, rinsed them in
his wagon and refilled them with
milk from large can, and then left
these bottles in other homes in the
community.
Such performance is far more
