Jobs For The Undertaken

Four out of every five automo-
bile accidents occur on dry roads
in clear weather. Four out of
every five automobile accidents
involve cars driving straight
ahead.
Here is the statistical proof of
the disregard for every rule of
courtesy and safety that charac-
terizes the reckless or incompe-
tent motorist. He constantly
oyerestimates the safety factors"
of good roads and modern cars.
A straight highway and a clear
day act as bait to make him
"open her upr-with the result
that the undertaken gets about
$4,000 new accounts each year.
A National Safety Council sur
vey lists the seven most import
ant causes of fatal accidents, in
order, as follows: Exceeding
speed limit or driving too fast for
road and weather conditions;
driving on the wrong side of the
road; disregarding stop signs and
signals; usurping right Of way;
cutting in; passing on hills and
curves; failure to signal for stop
ping and turning
These driving errors cause the
great bulk of all serious accidents
and the first is by far the worst.
Every one of them is human
error-and every accident they
produce could be prevented if the
drivers would observe the most
elementary rules of caution and
proper driving.
In conclusion, here is one more
fact you might think over next
i;L,e you feel ne urge to step oil
it: At 20 miles per hour, one
accident in 81 is fatal, while at
so miles per hour, one accident
in every IL produces corpse.

SO scale drawings of them in
water color.
The first wooden images for use
in trade have been traced as far
back as the year 1917, when they
were found in apothecaries' shops
in London. Their characteristics
then smacked of African lineage.
In Queen Anne's reign. when
shops were opened for retailing
tobacco products, wooden Indians
began to appear. Sometimes the
skirts were of tobacco leaves and
the headdresses initiated ostrich
plumes. They were called BLACK
Boys
Wood carving developed early
in America and we find Black
Boys, Wooden Indians, Sir Wal
ter Raleighs, Policemen, Uncle
Sans, Champagne Charles and
Forty-niners. But the Wooden In
dian soon held the field. His hey
day was from 1912 to the nineties,
after which he began to lose
much of his popularity and was
retired to storage or oblivion.
The Wooden Indian has long
been something of a joke, but the
Federal Art project people are
now placing the tribe among the
American Primitives together
with certain variety of early
portrait painting and of heroic
sculpture. Our artistic fathers
may not have been Michelange-
los or Da Vincis, but they knew
what they liked and what the to-
bacco stores wanted. The streets
of our cities may not resound
again with the silent war-whoops
of the Wooden Indians, but col
lectors and the WPA have pre-
served the ideal for artists of the
future to gaze upon with surprise
and perhaps, in some cases, with
artistic pleasure.

What's Wrong at Home?

After hearing a lot about the
waywardness of children of the
present, it occurred to Rev. Gin
ton D. Cox, of Chicago, to get the
viewpoint of the youngsters them
selves, which he did through ask
ing IT'S boys to write freely their
ideas on Whats wrong with the
homer"
Among the answers given by
these boys, who ranged from Ia
to 16 years of age, were the fol
lowing:
"A boy wants a mother who
can keep a secret and not tell the
neighbors everything about him. .
'.The girls word is always tax
en- and the boys word is always
doubted"
Home is court room and
every member in the family tries
to take a hand in raising the
boy"
Parents never admit it when
they're wrong"
People who led the widest
life before they were married are
the strictest parents"
Mothers try to hold other boys
up as models too much"
These are only a few of the an.
swers, but they indicate that boys
believe there are a good many
faults on the parents side of the
case, and doubtless that is true

Holding oar End Up

If the average citizen who is
barely making ends meet, or who
is falling behind financially,
would check himself up he might
find some interesting facts con-
corning his affairs.
He would probably find. among
other things, that his difficulties
arise principally from his indul-
gence in the ancient game of try
ing to outshine his neighbors.
Take our automobile problem
for example. First our neighbor
buys an inexpensive car, and we
must do likewise-on the INSTALL
ment plan. Then before it is paid
for another friend invests in a
six-cylinder machine, so in order
to keep up appearances we must
take another plunge, probably 60
ing little better.
It is the same with other
things. We must have better
radio set than the family next
door; better furniture; more
stylish clothes. We must send our
Mary to an expensive Boarding
school because Mrs. Jones is send
ing her Sally-when both would
be as we'll or better off in the
home town high school. Then we
must give expensive parties for
which the Smiths or Browns have
set the pace. We must have ex-
tensive vacation trips, when we
might see as fine a collection of
billboards right at home. And we
wonder why we seem to get hope
lessly behind financially.
1t is safe to say that at least
one-third of the average family's
income is spent for such gratifi-
cation of vanity, beyond what
would be necessary to live de-

A Unique Invention

A reading lamp that coolies the
reader by means of a four1bladed
silent electric fan mounted just
about the light bulbs was invent
ed recently by E. G. Simmer of
Chicago. The unique lamp was
one of the recent Merchandise
Mart lamp show.
Designed to sweep the cooler
air from the floor of a room the
fans horizontal blades draw this
air through the vented opening
which surrounds the top of the
shade. In this way the steady
flow of heat given of by the
light bulbs is in this lamp car
ried off through the shade rather
than falling about the readers
head and shoulders: The fan,
moreover, does not blow a direct
blast on anyone in the room, but
in blowing directly ceilingward
dispels such odors as tobacco
smoke.
The lamp has several other In
teresting uses such as for bed

Wooden Indians Sought

LLeaders in Federal Art project
of the WPA, engaged in recording
material representatives of early
traditions in design, have had
much to say of our old friend, the
Wooden Indian. In Michigan,
project workers unearthed nearly
a tribe of these inanimate abort
gines. In half lifetime, Dudley
A. Waters Of Grand Rapids. col
lecting Wooden Indians, secured
Al excellent specimens Of the art.
The WPA artists have completed
