SAFETY FIRST I
Throw out the clutch when ap
proaching a railroad crossing. This
will eliminate all noises about the
car, making it possible to listen for
the sound of an . approaching train.
In coasting, however, do not allow
the engine to Idle so slowly that
there is danger of its stalling.

when about 17. he entered the naval
service of the I'nited Slates and was
sent to the Asiatic station.
"Contact with rough men and life
of the water fronts opened my eyes
to the futility of a life herein no
one considered the coming of tomor
row In the dissipation of today, and
I began to question tbe future, to
explore tomorrow, In an attempt to
rearn some plane whereby 1 could
make life mora than one of the com
mon failures and tragedies to be
found In the brothels and resorts of
iniquitous Shanghai." he said.
"Every Sunday for the year in
which my ship was lying off the
shores of China, near the city of
Shanghai, there came aboard a group
of missionaries who struggled to in
still into the minds of the men some
conception of the beauty and desira
bility ot a true Christian life. At
that time I was dangerously close to
being an atheist.
Observed Missionaries.
"The fights along the slippery
wharves and In the low dlvea of the
city among the seamen of many na
tions, these missionaries coining
aboard every Sunday and preaching
the Gospel of Christ and telling us
they loved us and were concerned,
with our future, started me thinking.
"Religion must have something to
it, I thought. If it Inspired these peo
ple' to brave hardships, rebuffs and
Insults. The unselfishness and ap
parent sincerity of these missionaries
impressed me, and there crept under
my crust of cynicism and near-atheism
a desire to understand a little
more of God, who so Influenced the
lives of these simple, whole-hnatred
folks.
"From thinking about it I came to
ono conclusion that tho material
pleasures we get from this life are
but passing and Insignificant in their
possibilities ot happiness, and that
could I experience tha frame of mind
that caused these people to find con
tent and happiness in miniaturing to
the souls of men, nothing else would
matter a great deal.
"Fouaht Own Battle."
With this in mind I fnuc-ht out mv I
own battle of salvation. Nights, when
the cool fingers of the sea caressed
the sides of our vessel and the voice
of the mysterious East called out Its
Invitation to hidden pleasures, I lay
in my hammock, swaying gently to
the roll of the never-resting sea, and
prayed to God, and, praying, I made
my peace with lllra.
"At once I was fired with the flames
of a divine ambition to do my part
to better the lives of sea rovers who
drifted from one port to another.
After my honorable discharge from
the navy, in 1899, I relumed to China
and, In keeping with mv ambition,
opened what was known as the Tinel
Kent' In Shanghai, where the wan
derers could get a nourishing meat
and a clean bed at a moderate cost.
Doing this kept the men away from
the vicious places of the city.
"Fights between men of different
ships wero common along the water
front, and often the street In front
of my little mission would resemble
a battleground, resounding to tho
cries and curses of the fighting fac
tions. But never, except once in the
histqry of the "Ilest' did a fight oc
cur within the walls of my little
mission.
He Could Fight Still.
I "One night, however, three Iklllsh
I sailors entered full of tho terrible
i liquor dispensed by the ruffians of tiie
, brothels. These wen immediately
' began to curse In a most appalling
way and, for no reason at all, began
to pick an argument with several of
the others who were sitting peace-,

not before I had plastered the map
of Ireland all over Uielr faces and left
them out In the street In front of the
mission wondering perhaps what ship
had collided with them."
