HORNS WILL b[ARE| |
AUTO SHOW CLOSE
Bigger Crowds This Year
Buy New Models From
the Floor.

In keeping with tradition, exhibitors
At the Seventeenth Annual Automo-
bile Show will sound the horns OF their
new 1887 models at II O'Clock tonlgnt
TO bring to q close the most successful
from a buying standpoint-show OF
its kind ever staged in the Capital.
Attendance since the exhibit opened
last Saturday has been approximately
20 per cent greater than last year,
according to Richard ]. Murphy, man
ager of the Washington Automotive
Trade Association and director Of the
show.
Busy With Orders.
The crowds have shown more tnan
idle curiosity in inspecting the new
cars, too, Murphy said, pointing out
that dealers have been kept busy fill
ing out order blanks and scheduling
demonstrations.
The turnout of the public strength
ened Murphy's contention that sales
for the remainder of the year would
send the total far beyond that Tor
1885, when 28,539 new automobiles
were sold in washington.
Before the show opened the sales
had totaled more than 27,600. Muir
ply expects this figure to be increased
by some 5000.
Safety and Comfort Stressed.
Speed and power, selling points In
preceding years, are not being en-
phasied so much this year, but in
stead safety, comfort and beauty are
being stressed.
A trailer exhibit is one of the at
fractions at the show. This type Of
travel has captured the fancy OF the
American motoring public, with the
result that production of the rolling
bungalows" has almost been trebled.
The show doors opened for the final
day at II am.

Thanks to that group of st. Paul
gals for the generous, broad
minded deed they pulled during the
holidays. Well, if it will make the
New Year brighter and happier for
them, and makes them feel noble,
pure and sanity, far be it from me
to spoil their fun. 1t takes some
queer things to make some people
happy you know.
To those girls who wrote in and
asked me to suggest some suitable
topics for discussion at high school
girls club meeting, I'd say that if
you'll give me until next week to
think it over, I'll be glad to help.
Your letter arrived only this morn

in Minneapolis, and told all of the
celebrants to shush up their noise,
or else, and up at the Apex,
around 600 a. M, the fists started
flying. At another gathering one
of the society lights had pushed
another society light in the face,
and they had to separate them.

Keep your chins up, boys. -. A lot
of the girls on the campus have
said that if they could choose a

the hot-cha way he wears his
clothes, and dances. In other
words, they'd want somebody who
would make a Hotel Lowerish ap-

High and Dry
(Ohio State Journan


 Archeologists prodding and proving around among the dust and ruins of ancient civilizations often bring to light interesting discoveries relating to the men who once walked proud and ambitious over those grounds.
 Among these human interest sdeghts is the ob- servation provided by Dr. Paul S. Martin curator of the Field Museum of National History the Pueblo Indians who lived 1000 years ago in their curious stone and mud apartment buildings, prohibited from going on sprees of any kind.
 The doctor doesn't give the reasons for this pro- hibtive measure, but possibly the rule for the protection and comfort of other occupants of the apartment One drunk at the singing or dish throw ing stage in apartment building can keep everyone else awake. Then, too clear head needed to scale those lean, notched poles that the only form of elevator known in those days Even an Indian with all his fortitude and ability to take it the chin was of little to the community if he slipped off the ladder and landed in the canyon several hundred feet below.
 Doubtless some of the boys occasionally slipped away from the community restrictions and brewed something potent to nip at and break the monotony while waiting for the white to discover them But they always sobered up and ate mess of raw onions to the patina off their breath before returning to the cliff house.

Slow Recruiting

(New York Times)
 In the course of his oratorical marathon Colonel Knox has not confined himself his heroic task of saving the nation. He would also the Democratic party He is not fighting it but fighting for it. It must be rescued from those alien and un-American elements" that in the vision of his falcon eye, now control it. In his most moving and suasive manner he has begged the Democrats to vote against mis- government" He dwells again and again on the de- serton of their party by great Democratic leaders" In Massachusetts he dilates your great states man." Governor Ely
 We haven't heard of any more great leaders leaving the Democratic tent nor of any common dinary Democrats converted by the Colonels homies Yet it is happiness to record that when he went l to Maine he found that Judge Connolly of Portland who took his name off the Democratic voting list 1884 is still indignant with the Democratic party Let us count him a recruit since enlistments are so few Let us count him great leader" since the number of the great deserters is scanty Former Chief Justice PPattangal is straight Re- publican, we believe He is a grand old independent and come-outer It is impossible not to like him and to regret that he should be so lonely
 When Colonel Knox was in Maine he found Jim Reed and Governor Ely They are pungent and sturdy characters, strong speakers. Why the Democratic heather stiff-necked? Why conversions so in frequent among them? When Colonel Knox rolling out more of his 22,000 miles of speech reaches Mis- souri, he will ind Jim Reed again. He may be for unate as to find the fortyodd other Constitutional Democrats but where is the expected rush get out oi ee DeioCidlc party anu US contanlnatlng alien and un-American elements? Our own private hope was in the Virginia Jeffersonan Democrats who met in secret at Richmond few weeks ago. They were said to be fifty That the formal and sacred num- Der which assemblies of insurgent Democrats may not exceed. Even the of the fifty Vrginians were not disclosed Since the day that their solemn session ended many have inquired anxouSly about them So far as know nothing has been heard
 The Republican National Committee should in- vestigate this mysterious disappearance. Did Jim Farley have hand in it? Or political botanists collecting specimens?

SOCIAL SECURITY IN ALASKA

With the Legislature just around the corner, when it is anticipated that body will take some action relative to Social Security, the information given large gathering of Alaska citizens here night before last by Delegate Anthony J. Dimond is especially enghtening The Delegate pointed out that esti- mates indicate that the additional cost to the Terri tory for taking part in the Social Security program would only be about $107 800
 The last Legislature set up s4OoOOO for the bi- ennium or $2o0,0oo year. for old age allowance in the Territory Under the Social Security estimate, the Territorys would be approximately $3O7 8OO The amount set up for old age allowances could be applied under the act with the result that only about sl07800 year would be needed in addition to the regular appropriation to permit benefits under the Social Security law in Alaska
 But let quote the Delegate who is con- versant with the act. He said:
 Based on an estimate made on January l.
 1886, using the figures of the 1930 a
 basis, it is estimated that 87l Indians and
 1878 whites above the age of 65 are living in
 the Territory. Statistics from other states
 that have already avaed themselves of the
 Social Security Act show that not than
 one-half of the white citizens 65 en-
 titled to benefits under the act Consequently
 estimating 839 whites and 871 Indians Alaska
 would have 171o eligible amounting to $615,-
 900 year, the Territorys share $307,800
 year. Should the age limit of women be low
 cred 10 60, an addit1onal $540O0 would be nec-
 eSsary
 In 1885 the Territorial Legislature appropriated $620000 for the bienium $3100O0 year for the fol- lowing in the Territory: Old Age allowance, $4O0OOO Dependent Children $90,O0O Relief of Destitution $50,000 Needy and Indigent, $80000 in addition to an appropriation for public health and $50 400 fol the Pioneers Home
 It pointed out that the s2OO,OOO year olo age allowance would be applicable to the old age part of the Social Security act, and probably addi- tonal The amount estimated $371 800 or $368 900 ii the Legislature lowered the age limit would not greatly exceed that already carried by the Ter ritory
 The Social Security program is actualty. Il Is now in operation in many of the States and it will be one of the most important matters to confront the Territorial Legislature when it meets in January Applying it to Alaska will require careful thought study and it isn't bit too early for all to &C., quaint ourselves with the facts particularly those men and women who are to make up the next Legislature They have vtally important matter concerning the welfare of Alaska before them Thorough analysis o1 the act itself between and when the legislative session meets will pave the way for intelligent action at that time.
