AUTO ACCIDENTS ON
THE INCREASE

Early Sunday morning a pick
up truck and a large coach or
sedan colided on the hill not far
from the beer gardens atop the
mountain between Maybeury
and Freeman. Both cars wound
up against the guard rail one on
each side of the road. The guard
rails held otherwise someone
would probably have lost his
life as there is a steep grade
off one side. This section of road
is as smooth and fine as any in
the state but has some mean
curves and hills. While we were
parked near the scene for a mo-
ment before passing on our way
we noted that most of the cars
were going much too fast for
the grade and investigation
seems to back up the idea that
this road is much used for
speeding after midnight week
ends.
Sunday afternoon we saw a
Ford A on its side not quite off
the road at the crest of the hill
at Pinnacle Rock. How the driver
succeeded in the trick we don't
know for the road is almost level
and apparently the vehicle did
not hit anything.
About a mile down the hill
we saw a huge pile of new
lumber with parts of truck
visible under it. Two men had
died when the truck had ran
away and smacked into a stone
wall with terrific force. The cab
Of the truck was pancaked when
the lumber slid along the bed.
The truck was practically new.

over this stretch of road before
and before he crashed sounds

or an agreement to live and let
live based on terms agreeable
to both. Such a course would be
honorable to both sides. Each
knows the other CAN wage war.
Each is confident it can come
out on top if there was one.
What would be dishonorable in
deciding to follow a peaceful
course after agreeing on such in
which both avoid stepping on
each others toes?
On the other hand supposing
there is German victory what
would Japan get? Among the
things would be status as a
German colony. Manchuria and
other Japanese territories will
be lost for on land Hitler would
be invincible and as soon as he

Aside from the obvious delight OF

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. . (UP)
Out on his acre and a quarter

Milwaukee county, Wallie Foltz
waits patiently for the day that
defense emergency and priorities
regulations will ~ relaxed.
That's when Foltz will be able to
obtain materials SO that his pat
ented. non-blstering pairing knife
can be manufactured on a large
scale.
A round, friendly man, he didn't
dream that he had potential for
tune when he invented the knife
in 1896. He did it merely to ease
the Job of his wife, Mildred, who
complained because her hand be-
came blistered when she pared
peaches for canning.
SUCCESS ON 2OTH TRY
Foltz started to Whittle knife
handles out of wood. The first was
no good. And its 18 successors Of
fered little improvement. But the
goth one was a success. Mildred
could pare fruit and vegetables for
hours and no blisters.
With his wife satisfied, Foltz
thought his job was done. But 1t
wasn't. Other women in the neigh
borhood we're bothered by blisters,
and they asked him to make knives
for them.
He didn't mind making the knives
for nothing. However, requests soon
became so numerous that he had
to begin charging for them, The
demand still increased. Soon Foltz
patened his invention. He also de-
veloped mold SO that he could
make the handles out of bakelite,
saving the work of whiting them
from wood

Season Variation
In Chiid's Mental

BERKELEY. Cal, Oct. CUP>-

hshed At the Institute of Child We'll
fare at the University of California
Children, according to DR.. Har-
cid f. Jones. director of the in
stitute. become more mentally alert
during the fall and winter months
of the yea. than during the spring
and summer months.
Similar findings had been made
previously at the University OF
Iowa but the findings of the Cali
lornia institute carried the research
one step farther.
TESTS MADE IN SCHOOL
The Iowa Investigations were
carried on with nursery school chill
dren and the deduction was made
that the children gained in intelli-
gence during the fall and winter
months more quickly than during
the spring and summer merely be-
cause they attended school
The California institute, however,
conducted its research on pre-
school children and it was found
that the same variation i'll intel
lectual development occurs in chill
dren who have not yet been to
school as in those who are in school.
Schooling therefore, has nothing
to do with the variation. it was
decided. and further investigation
is under way to ascertain what is
the fundamental causative factor.
II this can be determined. it is be-
lieved that much might be accom-
plished in speeding up the mental
