Tom Nautilus OFF
Bit On Theor,

About $50 years ago Thomas
Robert Nautilus. an English eco
nomist, set forth the Malthusian
theory of population-the doctrine
that population tends to increase
faster than food supply and that
lack of food would limit the size
of the nations of the world
Nautilus looked at the oriental
civilizations of India and China,
where famine and death for CEN
turtles followed failure of the rice
crop and where an increase of
the food supply resulted in a rise
in the birth rate Nautilus be-
lieved thdt England's population
at that time was close to the
saturation point, and most of the
learned world shared that view.

CHRYSLER Goes
IN FOR COMFORT

IN the final analysis, riding com
fort Is generally the factor that
most endears a motor car to its
owner No matter how many fine
mechanical qualities It may have
II cannot be entirely Satisfactory
unless il Is a comfortable car.
Comfort is a combination and syn
chronization Of number OF quail
tiles and elements, among which
are springs, depth and type Of
cushions. shock absorbers, weight
distribution. tires. elbow room.
head room. the design and placing
Of controls and appointments and
the quality Of upholstery.
The new Chrysler Royal and
Imperial for 1889 measure up TO
all the requirements for lasting
comfort. In the first place. they
have the now famous Chrysler
floating ride which is founded on
a scientific distribution Of weight
that cradles the passengers be-
tween the axles.
Shock absorbers are of the aero
hydraulic type individually con-
trolled These devices operate on
the same principle as those in the
landing gear OF the big transport
sirplanes and the recoil mechan-
ism of heavy artillery.
Insulation and ventilation, two
very important contributors to
comfort. are excellent. Chrysler 5
all-weather ventilation is controlled
by adjustable wings on front and
rear-quarter windows. which are
easily opened and remain firmly
in any desired position. The body
is mounted on outriggers with rub
Der bushings that eliminate metal
to-metal contacts between frame
and body.
The drivers seat is adjustable
over wide range by means OF a
conveniently located lever. AS the
seat moves forward and back, ii
also rises or lowers. thus insuring
a comfortable position for the
occupant.

Graham, the Spirit of Motion
car which proved to be the style
sensation at last years automobile

TURN FEW LEAVES

How many millions of people come into, and go out of the world, ignorant of themselves. and of the world they have lived in The world is certainly a great and stately volume of nat ural things; and may not be inn properly styled the hieroglyphics of better: But, alas! how very few leaves of it do we seriously turn over. This ought to be the subject of the education of our youth, who, at twenty, when they should be fit for business, know little or nothing about it.

FATHER HUBBARD PAYS TRIBUTE KING ISLANDERS

In the past 50 years, King Is- land has not had a suicide, a murder, a divorce, serious theft, a quarrel or case of ven ereal disease, the Rev Bernard R. Hubbard, SJ., who has just returned from spending year on the Island, reports the Ju- neau Empire.
 The Chief of the King Island CTS, who accompanied Father Hubbard on an oomiak voyage around the top of North Amer ica, as far as Demarctation Pt. told the Glacier Priest he had personally delivered l,200 Eski- mo babies without fatality.
 That the Eskimos are a uni lingual people is indicated by the fact that the King Islanders could converse all along the way with native residents, Father Hubbard said. He referred to the Eskimos as refugees from Gen ghis Kahn and said that some day some scientist will find a tribe in Asia which speaks Ian guage identical with that of King Island, off Seward Penin- sula.
 Father Hubbard said all the na tives in the north said the wal rus were on the increase and that no new regulations were needed for their protection.
