 Honolulu, T. H., Feb. 17-(UPp Lieut.. Gaden jerked his thumb toward the wide open space below us and over the side we went for an 1100-foot ride to earth.
 It reminded me of nothing so much as hitch-hiker's gesture asking for another kind of ride.
 There were six of us in the 4-P- 10 flying over Schofield airport at a height of about 5000 or 5000 feet when the trouble started.
 Clouds closed in under us just as the engines stopped. We entered a forced glide as the mechanics tried vainly to restart the motors. There seemed to be something wrong with the gas feeds, and the earth was coming up to meet us at dizzy pace.

More safety should be taught in our
schools. Statistics show that youthful
drivers of high school age are motor
iously unsafe. The high schools pre-
pare those boys and girls for various
activities of life, but when it comes to
an activity that we are sure of most OF
them will take up-that of driving a
car-they do comparatively little.
Accident prevention and safety in
automobile driving does not come
naturally. Youth is reckless and
daring. It wants to speed-it wants tc
travel fast-it wants to take chances
it wants to create a sensation.
These are not safe practices and eff
fort should be made to instruct high
school students and college student.
about the art of safe driving and the
necessity for concerted action.
If it's an educational problem il
should be given consideration in the
schools.

Badness May Be
Hereditary Says Bulletin

The question: How can keep from
getting bald" is usually asked by the
son and grandson of man who Suf-
fered prematurely from the same mis-
fortune, says a bulletin issued by the
Public Health Education Committee.
The question is very hard to answer
because there appear to be people who
are bald for no particular reason that
anybody can find but except that their
fathers were bald before them and pre-
mature badness seems to run Gin the
family"
A typical stretched condition of the
covering of the frontal muscle of the
forehead and top of the head is said
to be found in most of these cases and
for them, tonics and creams and packs
are not likely to do much good
In all cases, however, proper, regular
washing, and prompt treatment of
eruptions, eczemas and even mild
seborrheas, inflammationS of the oil
glands which result in dandruff are
advised in the bulletin as good general
preventive hygiene.
Stiff hats worn for long periods OF
time are also to be avoided They press
on frontal arteries and besides shut out
sunshine and air.
Excessive use of water on the scalp
is also thought to be a factor to be
considered in premature badness, and
it should be avoided.
The badness that comes after middle
age is another thing, according to in
veStigators and may be the result OF
skin changes due to age in the scalp
Chronic disease, also undoubtedly pre-
dispoSes to hair loss. Anemia, rheu-
matism, malaria neurotic changes and
even anxiety and worry are things to
watch. OF course acute diseases and
feverS, are known to cause loss of hail
| though the loss is often only temporary
| in these cases.

Hunters AdUised to Use
Dogs and Common Sense.

With hunting season open, every
hunter should inform himself on both
his state and federal hunting laws and
regulations, for many changes have
been made in both, bulletin of the
American Game Association points out
No sportsman will knowingly violate
such laws, but ignorance of the law
excuses no one and stiff penalties have
been fixed for violatorS, particularly in
view of the depletion of many species
of game by the drought and floods.
Here are some of the general prin-
ciples of law that obtain in either every
state where the law is federal or in
nearly every state where the law is
local. Besides, observing them is good
craftsmanship.
1t is against the law to
Hunt without license.
Hunt from a power boat, automobile
or airplane.
Hunt on any posted land without
pCI1llSSlOll.
Hunt waterfowl with any gun larger
than a 10-guage.
Hunt waterfowl without federal
waterfowl hunting stamp.
Hunt for hire or hire anyone to hunt.
Sell wild game alive or dead.
Shoot within specific distances of any
public road.
There are many such laws and many
states vary in detail but practically all
have these principles as their basis.
If these principles are followed and a
hunter watches his bag limits and
possession limits, chances are he will
not run afoul of the 700 or more Fed
eral Game Management Agents (war-
dens) and the horde of state wardens
and volunteer keepers of the game.
The Federal and the State authorities
are cooperating closer than ever this
year, particularly upon waterfowl regu-
lations enforcement.
The American Game Association
urges every hunter to use a dog re-
treiver this year. About a third of
game shot down is usually lost without
one. Use of a retriever, of course, cuts
down on the kill to say nothing of
eliminating suffering of wounded game.
