- Industry aids the farmer. In
two DAYS metal surfaces can now
be finished more durably and
beautifully than they formerly
could in 81 days! The new lac
quers use a farm product once
wasted - cotton linters.
- Invention is distinctly per-
sonal in character. All of the
great inventions are closely con-
nected with the work of some
individual. The race always makes
progress through the individual
and not through the mass. =

AS a result of industria,

Along with the slogan shop and
mail early for Christmas" should be
another one of even more impor-
tarice. It should be "drive and walk
safely for Christmas" In order that
you and others may be able to fit
fully enjoy the holidays when they
arrive.
In keeping with this thought the
National Safety Council makes the
appeal, stop the Christmas car
nage!" to the drivers and pedestrians
Of the country In an effort to cut
down the heavy December trafIic
toll.
Each year the council points out,
the Christmas spirit Of Peace on
Earth, Good Will Toward Men" un-
dergoes an ironic tranformation. It
is converted by the very geniality
and excitement Of the holiday sea-
son into suffering and sorrow
through wholesale slaughter on the
streets and highways.
The Nation wide campaign con-
Quoted by the council and partici-
pated in by 30 other national organ
izations has two-fold significance
this year. Not only Is 1t aimed at
the blight on Christmas happiness,
but it is last ditch f1ght to prevent
traffic fatalities this year from ex-
ceeding last years total.
Traffic deaths this year through
out the Nation are about even with
1898. This is true in the District
of Columbia as well. The margin
of difference is so slight that De-
cember will tell the story whether
the Nation will reduce its traffic toll
for the second consecutive year, or
whether part of last years gain will
be lost.
Last year 3,43O persons died in
December traffic mishaps. Records
show that the December death rate
on a mileage basis is one-third
higher than the average for all
months. The month when joy anc
happiness should reign untouched
by tragedy is more than one and
a half times as hazardous as the
safest month-June.
