ELECTRIC SELF STARTERS
 APPLIED AUTOS % YRS. AGO

This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the practical applf- cation of the electric self starter 10 automobiles and plans are under way to take note of the event in New York in connection with the annual automobile shows in mid November
 Charles F. Kettering. now Vice President of the General Motors Corporation in Charge of Research. developed the self-starter in 19II working with a loyal band of help- CTS under severe handieaps in the barn which served as tne first "faa- torya and executive offices" of the Dayton Engineering Laboratories Company
 The self-starter wus applied tirsf by Henry NJ. Leland to Cadillac cais and became standard Cadillac equip- ment in 1912. On the strength of this epochal improvement. Cadillac that year won the famous Dewar Trophy in London for the second time. Soon other makes of automo- piles were so equipped and the rapid expansion of the automobile indus try followed. The self-startiug mech anism made motoring safer. easier and cleaner and, in particular met the driving needs of women.

 TO the discerning oues living in this island kingdom. this relatedness of life is an open book from which there are important things 10 be learned. Education is that consid- cred effort of society to make that interrelated life of man more mean ingful and more satisfying.
 TO do this. education must be not merely related to life. but life itself participating in the events and urges of life as a whole.
 Ill would be difficult to discover an experience of humankind which could be more significant for edu- cation than this one which is ad- iusted to the salmon cycle. Integra- tion is possible. Insight, understand ing and points of view can be read fly developed through the exper- fences of direct participation.
 The Third Salmon Class at , Wrangell Institute has completed its work and this book is a record of their experiences and fnvestiga- tions. It is evident that the work of the year has been a significant participation in the life and events of the island fisheries.
 Probably the most enduring re suit of these experiences for the students of this class will be the perception of their relationships to other people, and their realization that they are members of move ment which concerns a great many people and in which their intelligent participation will bring much of life's deeper satisfactions."

SURGING GLACIER LAKE FLOOD
 ENDANGERS LIFE LITUYA BAY

Floating timber and uprootad trees drifting now some 50 miles southward of Lituya bay mark the passage of a surging flood which sought the lives of four men iso- lated on the Lituya shores and des- troyed all ground and property in its path.
 Arriving at Juneau Bernard Allen on of the men to witness the flood of the four men to witness the flood told of the events of the day, Oc- tober 27, when the onpushing of ] 250-foot wall of water awakened him and his companion, Jim Illus croft, at 2 a. m.
 Completely crushing a warehouse storing 50 barrels of salted fish on the banks, the flood swept for a length of four and one-half miles along the shore, carving new bank from the stone and soil, and hurling rocks and trees through the waves.
 The cause of the flood was stated to be damming up of water by Cru
  With thaWing, the ice broke loose and allowed the glacier lake to sweep through.
 Allen and Huscroft were aWak- ened by the roar of the flood, des- cribed as the drone of 100 airplanes at low altitude" and found water already up to their door, They fled up the side of the hill. Later they discovered Fritz SErikson and Nick Larson, fur trappers, safe in their trolling boat, the Mine, which had been lifted from anchor and washed down shore.
 Trees and mountain shrubs along the side of the shore were cleared away to an altitude of 500 feet, Allen reports. He estimates the rate of water movement to have been about 20 knots per hour. The flood swept over the shore in three waves of increasing altitude.

THE NEED OF MODERN
ZEALOTS
BY R. A. ADAMS
(For Literary Service Bureau)

Usually the term zealot is used
in derision. Often it is used as a
synonym of fanatic. In almost any
dictionary or encyclopedia you
will find, "zealot, one of a fanati-
cal sect of Jews which carried on
e desperate struggle against the
Romans until the fall of Jerusa-
lem. A. d. TO-" But even these
fanatics" are due commentator
for fealty to a cause they consid-
cred right, though it was unpop-
ular and a losing cause.
In this age of shameless mater
ialism, when the of value
seemsutterly lost, in an era when
ideals and standards r. Knocked
and trampled, there is a need for
modern zealots who will contend
for principles of right, for integ-
rity, and against the fragrant and
arrogant moral laxness now .ev.
erywhere prevalent.
For these purposes and tol
this work there is need for spirit
ual and moral zealots who, re-
fusing to be undaunted will fight
against that which is wrong and
against the degraration of our
There is need for those fighters
to contend for the reestablish-
lishment of customs, conventions
and safeguards which have stood
the tests and demonstrated their
intrinsic value. All honor to sane,
honorable and honest zealots. And
may their tribe increase.

A GIRLS PROBLEMS
(By Videtta Ish)

Alta Yesta to Her Father mo 27)
Dear Father: l am SO happy
that I feel just like jumping up
and down like a little bird I saw
today. I wonder if birds think and
if they know when they r happy.
I like birds, Father, and i wonder
If that is foolish. Sometimes |
wish I had a nice little bird in a
beautiful cage. I'd be so kind to
him that he'd just love me and
sing for me lal of the time.
Now, Father, Christmas is past
and l wish I could see you. That
would have been a wonderful
present for me. I know l saw you
Thanksgiving but when l think of
you l want to see you, it seems
like it was a long time ago.
Oh, yes, Daddy, ] paid Santa
Claus to buy you a present. Aunt
Cornelia saw him for me and l
hope you liked it. Oh Daddy, i did
love the Christmas music coming
over the radio. They sang "Silent
Night, Holy Night" and I sat up
so close and listened.

NOT LUCK NOR CHANCE
By R A. ADAMS
(For the Literary Service Bureau,

There's no such thing as luck or
chance,
And never do men make advance
By means of Fate's benign decree,
But by persistent industry.
TITS folly undisguised, to wait
Upon the whims of tickle Fate,
Since It is true even the stars
Only are reached thru bolts and
bars"
By fallacies be not deceived,
For, whatever has been achieved
OF things worth while, was at the
price
OF patient toll and sacrifice.
And always win the truth remain,
All who would eminenee attain,
Striving, must win full victory
Against hostile adversely.

not understand the depth of mean
ing in those words, but I could not
help asking myself questions.
Why must l be true because

erybody thinks so. In fact, many
a man regards it as very stupid

Sooner or later, however. he

clever, for the abuse of confidence
ends in the loss of confidence, and
where are we if we cannot trust
one another? Think, for instance.

child when they have lost faith
IN each other. Is there a sadder Ia
ment than 81 can no longer trust

On the other hand, responding
to the faith others have in us
Faith is a miracle worker. Men
have been reused out of sloth and
degradation by the discovery that
somebody really believes in them;
even the memory of such an one
has at times worked wonders. And
when they feel the touch devine
81 still believe in you" they are
conscious of a mighty urge to take
the ~proffered hand, and in the aw-
full stiffness of that moment they
hear the psalm of Bethlehem sung
for them as never before. They
realize they must be true, for
there is one who loves them.

it is the South and West against

In the bred Scott Decision the
Supreme Court based its opinion
upon the right of the slave-hold-

the supreme court on the "New

ground of local sovereignty over

A. NJ. E. Sunday School
Holds Limelight In
the Church
(By J. H. Adams for AMP


Waco, Texas, Jan. 10 What is
the A. M. E. church going to do
with Ira T. Bryant, secretary
treasurer of the A. M. E. Sunday
School Union at Nashville, Tenn,
and admittedly the most dynamic
layman in the denomination? 1t is
the one question among ministers
and laymen, and the angles from
which the question is approached
and argued afford the first def
mite clue to the answer
There is a division of opinion as
to what constitutes Bryant's
Crime and as to what charges to
be brought against him. Is he a
murderer? Is he a thief? Is he a
traitor? Is he a moral stencil?
Is he a doctrinal renegade? Is he
an incompetent physically and in
tellectually? No one seems able to
find here an indictment that will
stick.
Is Ira T. Bryant failing to do
his work with credit to the church
and the Sunday School union? Is
he Incorporating the funds en-
trusted to him? Is he abusing his
office to promote unholy and UNI
justified ends? Is he involved in a
scandal now or running back
through the years? Is he ambi-
tious to defeat the best detectives
of that church? No n seems able
to produce a charge here.
is he insubordinate? Is he dis
courteous? Is he lacking in either
his blood, his breeding or his
caste? Finally, is he a coward?
A charge that will stick is the
thing needed for the church to get
rid of a general officer who has
proven himself to be the one en-
livening, energizing, thought-pro-
voking source in the A. M. E.
church since the days of Henry
McNiel Turner.
Mr.. Bryant occasionally runs
amuek in the exposition of things
and men in the church which dc
not square with his theory and
understanding of duty. He is
smart enough to know that he is
protected by the constitution Of
the United States. After all, a
man need not be very smart to
know the law. He is very, very
smart when he succeeds number.
less times in going within one
sixteenth of an inch in breaking
the law. AS long as he is editor
of the Sunday School literature
he is protected in expressing his
individual opinion. Country eritors
know that.
Personally and frankly, | do moi
could no more follow his course
than float upstream. This differ
ence between us is not a matter Oh
character or fitness but rather Of
temperament. There must be some
body in the church to keep il
awake and thinking. Bryant is
tempermentally cut out to do that
thing. He prieks as, sticks us
stings us, bites us and all of il
hurts. Like the aggravating flea
he is no respector of persons and
attacks us in our most vulnerable
spots and where complacency is
the rule.
What is the A. M. e. church
