Romance Sails Again

A MONG the four things which King Solomon listed
in the Book of Proverbs as mysteries beyond his
understanding were "the way of ship in the sea"
and the way of an eagle in the air" Those are still
wonders which grip the imagination of most human
beings In this mechanical age it is easy for most to
understand how an airplane flies, but the flight of
bird is beyond So with ship The steamship is
modern mechanical marvel, but the sailing ship car
ries with it tradition and appeal to something
deep i'll the human spirit that has its roots back in
the beginnings of Mans conquests Of Nature as deep
rooted as the spirit of adventure itself
So there is something deeply moving to the imagi-
nation in the news that the annual of the grain
ships from Australia around Cape Horn to the mar
ket ports of Europe is under way again. Thirteen
towering windjammers, their sky-sas set and their
holds full of golden grain, plugging eastward and
northward the courses which Magellan and
Drake and Captain Cook and the host of adventurous
explorers who sailed those perilous seas when the
world was young 1t is pageant which strs the blood
of everyone who has feeling for the romance of a
vanished past of which these ships are almost the
sole survivors.

Junk The Old Cars

THE proposal has been seriously put forth by an
automobile manufacturer that the Government
should spend hundred million dollars to buy the mil
lion worst old automobiles on the roads and de-
stroy them.
There seems to be much sounder common-sense
behind that project than there is in some Of the
things which have been proposed actually under
taken III recent years 1t was difficult for the average
American to the justification for the wholesale
destruction of livestock and produce under the old
A. A A. Those were real wealth.
Many of the old automobiles in use, however, are
not only practically valueless but positive menace
to human life and public safety Most of them are be-
yond repair, and their od-fashoned twowheel brakes
cannot be adapted to modern safety requirements.
hundred million dollars would be high price to
pay for only million of these "jalopies" There are
probably five million outdated cars cutte1ing the
highways which could be junked for that amount
We do not advocate unnecessary government spend
ing, but if it's being DONE why not spend some where
it would do public service? And if spending of pub
lie funds is to continue for the benefit of special
groups and classes, why are not automobile manu-
factuers entitled to MUCH consideration as cotton
planters or any other group?

Some Vice-Presidents

FEW Americans, perhaps, would be able to tell off
hand how many vice presidents of the United
States afterWard became president and for the bene
fit of any who might be interested may recall that
there were nine.
They were, in order John Adams, jefferson Van
Buren, Tyler, Fillmore, Johnson, Arthur, Theodore
Roosevelt and Coolidge The first three were elected
president after serving terms vcepresident while
the remaining six became president upon the death
of the chief executive with whom they elected
John Adams served two terms as vice-president un-
der President Washington; elected president in
1896, but defeated for reelection in 1900 by his own
president, Thomas Jefferson In fact Adams ran
third i'll the election Of 1900 receiving 65 electoral
votes, while jefferson and Aaron Burr received 73
EACH The election thus thrown into the House Of
Representatives, and Jefferson was elected Burr be-
coming vice-presdent under the system then in ef-
feet
Martin Van Buren vice president during the
second term of President Andrew Jackson whom he
succeeded to the presidency in 1897 Van Buren, was
defeated for reelection in 1910; defeated for nom
nation for president in 1884, and nominated but de-
feated in 1848
Tyler, Fillmore, Johnson and Arthur merely served
out the unexpired terms of their predecessors al
though Fillmore tried for an additional term and
failed
Theodore Roosevelt and Calvin Coolidge were elect
ed president in their right after serving out the
unexpired terms of their dead predecessors McKin-
ley and Harding.

Friends said her loyalty to the former
chancellor was so great that they be-
