DESTRUCTIVE MOTORISTS
The general ownership of automobiles has made it much
; easier for people dwelling in thickly settled communities to
get out a long distance in the country, and many of them
do not know how to behave when they get there. Some of
these folks call Biemselves nature lovers, and are anxious
to.obtain choice flowers and foliage with which to decorate
-their homes. So they swarm along the roadsides, uprooting
beautiful blooms which may be so sensitive to such treat
ment that they will be permanently destroyed. Or they
break down the branches of trees In blossom time, so tfiat
this vegetation subsequently has a ragged appearance. As
fruits and vegetables ripen, trees and vines located along
the road are frequently robbed, and the owners may get but
little of the product thereof. Many people seem to make
a business of this kind of thing, and they prospect for prom
ising looking gardens, and descend on such property on dark
night. Well equipped with bags and baskets, they stock
themselves up in a short time. Some folks do tiiese stunts

is merely the habit which they acquired in former days in
country towns. It used to be considered in many localities
quite legitimate for people to go out into the fields and pick
-what berries they could find, unless land was posted
against such trespassing. In those days such fruits were
very abundant. But now things are different, and all these
fruits have value. The country people have a hard enough
. time getting along without having to suffer these Josses,
which often deprive them of products which they have work-

fact that a graduate is entitled to use these cherished initi

that standards shall be so raised, that those who slip through

The U. S. Bureau of Labor reports that depression in
two leading shoe producing cities has been due to various
- causes, chief among which is the demand by women for ex-
. treme novelty in shoes. The report shows that production
costs are higher on such shoes. Yien the women go to a
store and demand the very latest wrinkle, they pay for this
satisfaction. If they could be content with something not
quite so extremely recent, they would have more money left
for something else. According to tradition, wearing the
very latest fashion makes a woman more fascinating. But
if it is done to please the men, they might reflect that those
critters may not know what the latest wrinkle is.

President Coolidge referred in his Norse centennial
. address, to the wonderful national unity which has been
achieved in this country, through that process of amalgama
tion called our "melting-pot". We have taken races which
in the old world could never get along in harmony, and we
have made one united people out of them. If we allowed the
faults and weaknesses of all our constituent peoples to
develop unchecked, our nation might gain material success

constituent peoples, we shall have a race whose power w...

Sinclair's Teapot Dome securities

night as the reault of the decision
by Federal District Judge T. Blake
Kennedy, upholding the lease of the
government oil land by ex-Secretary
Fall and white-washing the entire
transaction whereby the navy's oil
reserves were bartered away. The
court swept aside all allegations of
fraud, although admitting the lease
by Sinclair to Fall "suspicious" but
legitimate.
Doheny who loaned Fall 1 100.1)00

on the coast was not so lucky as
tne ederal Judge In California held
the lease fraudulent. However, Do

oil and no one will have to go lo

a reward of merit. It la the little

transgressor hard.
If Sinclair and Doheny had been
country postmasters and taken a
few dollars worth of postage

the navy In case of war. It would
have meant federal prison for a
long term. Justice Is quite relent
