L' Tossibly tlie birth rate in France will improve some
what when there are prospects that the coming generation
is not being raised for cannon fodder.
i
The fashion doctors have prescribed suspenders as the
proper and stylish means for keeping one's trousers in
place. Now the job of getting men to wear them is quite
another matter.
When some people reach the turn of the road they con
sider it an opportunity to rest. Jlathcr it is an opportunity
for broader vision, greater and more rapid accomplishment,
und service to one's fellows and community.
Traffic conditions in La Grande are not so complicated
as to require the importation of experts to solve our piolV
lem,'. but certainly they are serious enough to require a
more rigid obyvance of signalling rules as a step toward
fewer smashups. All drivers signal part of the time, a vciy
ifew signal all of the time, but we arc"far from tile' lcr
jfoction that would be possible if everyone signaled their
(movements with every turn of the wheel, with every pres
sure on the bnike and accelerator. Educating drivers to
Unch a degree of efficiency would not eliminate the acci
dents that occur or almost occur because a driver suffers
'from stiff-neck or blindness and can't look back or to
either side before turning or passing an intersection, but
t would do much to improve the safety of our streets
and the ploaiiure of driving on those .streets.

j When a Chicago matron was asked if she would like
.to 'accompany the Roosevelt brothers on their expedition
into the Hinterland of Asia she displayed a flapper's thirst
for romance and adventure by emphatically replying, "No,
because I don't believe it would be half as exciting or dan-j
jrnrous as living ncro in uiieago. fSlie was expressing a
world of truth.
i In the wild, uncivilised readies of Asia the two Uoose
velts will be in less danger of bodily haim than in Chicago
or any other busy American city. The danger of being
trampled underneath an Asiatic bear or gored by a moun
tain sheep will be immeasurably less than of being run
flown by a taxicab or truck in the wild and rushing II. S. A.
If a band of Mongolian bandits kidnaps them or .steals their
money hells two governments will quickly obtain their re
lease and restore their lost goods. In most any American
city they would be inconstant danger of being robbed or
hot down by niolor bandits with little hope of the restora
tion of their piopcrty or the avenging of their cold-blooded
murder. While in Kurope the Roosevelt ian chips will
breathe pure air and iincontaminaled, unmedicated water
after they have rid their systems of the foul air and taste
jess water of home.
, The adventitious used to go forth from the quiet vil
lages and small cities into the wilderness for excitement
mid danger. Now they come from the wilderness into tlu
city for. their adventure. They find dodging automobile.
more thrilling than slaying lions, walking the streets lalo
nf night more dangerous than stalking Indians, and driv
ing an automobile on congested city streets wilder than
roping longhorns.

to t'oolidge. When every battle of
the Civil war can be seen and
heard. When the sinking of the
Titanic or the building of Noah's
Ark can be viewed without getting
off your chair. When the parting;
of the Red Sea before Moses and
the shouting of Pharaohs army in
pursuit can till be seen and heard.
When Noah's preaching. can bo

opto t he morning when the ani
mals, wild by nature, but mov
upon by some unseen Instinct, com
menced lo march to the door of
that Jtik. Then Noah and his fam
lly also march In and the dour
was shut from the outside. And
the doublet's of the day shall also
listen to I lie thunder nf Koah's day
