Gust What He's Been Looking For"
Of road building and car design can
eliminate the human element from
driving. The Is or so vehicles which
piled up a few weeks ago on the New
Jersey Turnpike did not do so because
of any car defects or faults of road
design. The vision of the driver of the
first car was obscured by smoke from
field along the highway, and he had
no choice but to slow down. Whether
he was good driver or a poor one,
whether he was young or old, whether
his car was large or small. new or old,
he could not see the road.
The recent accident on the Baltimore
Pike, in which the drunken driver of
one car not-enly lost his life but caused
the death of three people in the other
car and the serious injury of fourth,
was caused by excessive speed of 80
miles an hour. IF driver wants to
endanger his own life by travelling at
such speed it is his own business, but
when he endangers the lives of others
it ceases to be only his business.
Many people, even men, can't pound
a nail into piece of wood or use
screwdriver correctly Yet we think
nothing of placing ton and half of
speed and power in their hands and
setting them free on the roads to en-
danger the lives of others Cars should
be in good driving condition and should
have sufficient reserve power to meet
emergencies, but unless they are to
be confined to super highways, with
quarter of mile distance between We
hicles and no pedestrians in the vi
cinity, they must be restricted to rea.
sonable and safe speeds.

Q. In various parts of the world there
are said to be disappearing" islands.
How many are known, and where are
they?-J. S. S.
A. It is not known with certainty how
many disappearing islands there are
at any given time because the number
varies constantly. In one year 358 new
rocks and islands we're reported, and
Ia volcanic islands disappeared. Falcon
Island, in the South Pacific, and Bogo-
SLOW, in the Aleutians, are two notable
examples Of islands that have sunk be-
meath the ocean and reappeared many
times.

spend at the North Pole when he finally
reached his goal in 1909?-B. I. r.
A. Peary reported that he and his
companions reached the Pole on April
at 10 o'clock in the morning and spent
36 hours there. Before returning, men,
bers of the party planted flags in the
ice at the top of the world and gave

@. Where does the sun get its vast
store of energy?-R. L. K.
A. The sun is an atomic engine which
derives its energy from the slow chang
ing Of hydrogen (the lightest chemical
element) to helium (the second light
est element). This atomic reaction in
the interior of the sun frees a vast
amount of energy. of which tiny frac-
tion reaches the earth.
