Rivaled Mining Camps.

The road swings westward adjacent
to the New York State border to War
ren, which is the gateway TO the Al
legheny National Forest. Here l sug-
gest turn to the south to Oil City.
Prosaically named, this town once ri
vailed the mining towns of the West in
its wild life and feverish excitement,
for here in 1860 oil was discovered, the
stampede was on and the narrow ravine
called Oil Creek became the busiest
valley in the world and laid the foun-
dation for some great American for
tunes.
From OIL City the traveller may go
directly south to Pittsburgh and turn
east over the William Penn or Lincoln
Highways On this trip if you would

No Hint of Depression.
And then for miles we run in and out
Of attractive valleys, cross sparkling
streams and visit tiny "spotless" towns
among the hills. If you have time run
back into these hills and visit at farm

everything is orderly. There is no hint

Robert Fulton, whose first marine ex-

the first Conestoga wagon, later famous
as the covered wagon Of our Western
plains.
And here lived Matthew Quay on a
farm, the first great political boss OF

That, it seems to me, fittingly de-
scribes the life of Pennsylvania. The

with eating. Their land is well titled,
their stock well kept, their farms as

REPORTS SUCCESS

Maryland Commissioner Of Motor
Vehicles Promises Repetition
Next Year.
Special Dispatch 70 The Star.

BALTIMORE, July f6-"Courtesy
Week will be repeated next year. 1t
has shown good results, according to all
reports, and we will continue It. I
hope that before the week next year I
will have been able to get more COM
plete information concerning the plan
to residents of the counties. I was
handicapped this year by lack of public
ity throughout the counties"
That was the report of Col. E. Austin
Baughman, commissioner of motor We
hicles, upon the results of the week he
set aside as one in which drivers of the
State could demonstrate their driving
manners.
Records at the commissioners Office
showed that there had been 1853 acci-
dents reported during the days from
July to 9. 1t was pointed out that
these were probably not all of the acci-
dents, since the reports for Saturday
had been Scant and had probably not
all reached the Office At the same time
it was pointed out that the law requires
that only accidents involving personal
injury must be reported TO the COM
miSsionerS Office.
At the same time, the commissioner
felt that the total would compare IA
vorably with that Of last year, 346 for
the same time. This figure does not
include the minor crashes Of the period,
and Is comparable with Courtesy
Week" figures.
There were six fatalities during the
period, and four Of these involved out
Of-State drivers. The number was the
same last year. Three Of last years
deaths involved Maryland drivers, two
were from out of the State and one
was hit-and-run case.

not? If the brakes are properly equal

I pulled on the hand brake, locked the

LEGISLATION URGED
TO CONTROL SPEED
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, July 16.-Special legis-
lation regulating the use of cars capa-
BILE of high speed may be requested by
E. Austin Baughman, commissioner of
motor vehicles.
He termed high speed and low men,
tality "a deadly combination" and said
the use of super-powered autos by per-
sons unfit In mind and training.
THE motor-car manufacturers have
made speed prominent, I may say too
prominent, part of their sales talk" Mr.
Baughman asserted. They do not take
into consideration the prospective Gus
TONER'S experience or sanity. 1t is ex-
tremely dangerous to put novice
behind the wheel of car that will go
80 or 100 miles an hour. Safety, not
speed, should be stressed.
The sensation afforded by speed is
pleasant, but ntemperance in this sort
of enjoyment too frequently ends at the
morgue.
1T will undoubtedly be necessary to
require the applicant for license to
drive a high-speed car to pass a strict
examination on the mechanics and con-
troll of the vehicle.
Until the applicant could demon
strate satisfactorily that he or she Is
a responsible driver 1t would aid the
cause Of safety to deny that person .
