Over Four Miles a Minute.
(New York Times.)

Sir Malcolm Campbell in the Bluebird skins over the sands of Daytona at the record breaking speed of 276.8l6 miles hour and risks his life. For him it is either glory death. In the days when fifty miles an hour was regarded miraculous the track the laboratory of the engineer New stees, engines, tires, new transmits sions came from competve tests, and with them stock that fast, strong and inexpensive. Will much be said of this latest victory over time?
 Compared with the Bluebird butterfly is TO- bust She is built for dash measured by the ten miles required for acceleraton and retardation and by the seconds to measured mile in two directions Let her roar along for full hour at top speed and her engines would probably fail if only for lack of fuel of water enough to cool them. What appears to be smooth stretch of beach is to her rougher than corduroy road. Pebbles shells, wrinkles in the sand cause wheel spin and a drop in speed. She seems to flutter along she is tossed up by every slight inequality. Lead ballast and a tail must keep her down lest she become airplane. Twenty two coats of paint rubbed down to fine polish reduce her skin fric- tion And the tires At 2500 revolutions minute. with treads but thirty second of inch thick, they are all but torn to shreds. At than the contemplated speed of 300 miles hour they may be thrown off like mud.
 These are all abnormalities that have no place in the automobile in which Everyman darts about his business Add to them the indspensabity in actual practice of highways 800 feet wide and as straight as a surveyor make them and it $ evident that the record made is of little practical importance It is not likely that more than 100 miles an hour will ever be made on open roads as we know them So must content ourselves with admiring the man who flew over the sands at a speed that few airplanes reach. His courage his skill his coolness his physical stamina are magnificent But they are adornments of fine sportsman rather than aids to the engineer at this late stage in the automobiles evolution

TAKING TT IN STRIDE.

When the smooth and expert breaks the tape to win his without apparent effort, they say "he took it in his stride" and in all walks of life the world admires the person who without fuss or feathers, takes things in his stride. Some call it pose, others temper and the mariner will say Ines on an even keel" but whatever the term lis it's still wonderful quality, and this country has enc of the finest examples on record.

The largest registration ever recorded in Juneau is now the registration books at the City Hall. At two o'clock today 1868 had registered This number will undoubtedly be increased throughout the later part of the afternoon and during the evening from seven until nine after which the books will be officially closed.
 Such unprecedented registration is a healthy indication that the citizens of Juneau are vally aware of their civic duties and willingly and vigorously shouldering them exercising their fran chse to vote and speaking their will, rather than letting the other fellow do it. and later, perhaps, often happens in communities complaining about their city government
 If the vote Tuesday is comparable with the registration which it undoubtedly will be- anyone who is civic minded enough to register will most certainly make that registration effective by voting, the high men running will know that they have been elected to their posts by truly representative vote
 For those who have lot registered there is still time to do so tonight and the cooperative few who have not should, by al means register tonight.

 Against A True
 Rural Background

Notable in brilliancy of perform ances and sheer pictorial beauty 'The Strangers Return," filmed from the new Phil Stong novel o1 rural life, opens Tuesday, (tonight) at the Dream Theatre with Lionel Barrymore and Miriam Hopkins co starred in the leading roles.
 Directed by King Vidor, the Met ro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture achieves masterful sweep in dramatic power against a farm background that lends realism to the gripping story action. Written by the author od State Fair" the film transcends the glory of his earlier work in simple genuine, human interest
 With Lionel Barrymore cast as the 85-year-old farmer who refuses tc die until his house is in order, Barry more delivers the most compelling characterization of his career. Mis-. Hopkins, seen as his city-bred grand daughter, is superb in her interpre. tation ofra role exacting in it's de mands.. s4s
 Vidor scores heavily with the smooth flow of the story and inter esting treatment of his subject.
 Franchot Tone, rapidly coming tt the front as new romantic hero carries the love theme with Mis-. Hopkins and proves a valuable ac quisition to the cast. Stuart Erwir is seen as bucolic character of botf humor and sympathy. Irene Her vey scored in the part of the young farm wife and the splendid cast in cludes Beulah Bondi, Grant Mitchell Tad Alexander and Aileen Carlyle
