"As comfortable as an old sihoc" is an expression that
probably doesn't apply in the case of the bridegroom who
gels one as he enters a taxi after the ceremony,
NO "CRIME WAV IV
. There is.no "crime wave" and juvenile delinquents arc
not increasing, in numbers, declares Dr. G. W. Kirch wcy,
formen warden of Sing Sing prison, and he has; figures to
sustain his assertions.
It is the belief of Dr. Kirchwey that the universal be
lief that crime is increasing is an obsession, n fixed emo
tional state, which the new psychologists call a "complex."
The belief is contradicted by accurate statistics.
What should disturb the nation, according to this au
thority on penology, is not an imagined increase of crime,
but the indubitable continuance of it. If crime would abate
temporarily there would be more time for preventive work
for getting at the causes of crime.
It is readily to be seen that the public might acquire
the, impression that crime was increasing from the more
daring methods now employed by some criminals and from
the sensational uses made of the automobiles by the mod
ern criminal. ElfihinaltMiqiior law violations and other
recently created misdemeanors and one can see at once that
crime actually is on the wane.
J)r. Kirchwey says, there is no reason or excuse for
supposing that boys and girls are any worse today than
they always were, the probabilities being that they average
better now than ever before.
Since juvenile courts .have been established generally
throughout the nation many have noted that what were
once childish pranks now 'constitute sufficient grounds U
bring the child into the juvenile com Is. When the rural
boy fills his blouse and pants pockets from Farmer I'.rown':-.
apple trees it is play. When the city Ixiy snilches an apple
from Tony's stand it is larceny. It is difficult to compare
crime conditions of two generation.

STUDEBAKER has discontinued the custom of
presenting a new line of automobiles each year.
Instead of bringing Studebaker cars dramatically
up-to-date once in twelve months, we shall keep
them up-to-date all- of the time with every im
provement made available by our great engineering
and manufacturing resources.
Improvements and refinements, of course, will be
made from time to time. New features will be added.
As in the past, wc shall continue to pioneer all vital .
betterments. But Studebaker will have no yearly
models to make your July car obsolete in August.
A dramatic story
There is a dramatic story behind this new Studebaker
policy that vitally concerns everyone who expects
to buy an automobile this year.
Amazing records of Studebaker performance and
endurance prove beyond question that the present
line of Studebaker cars is so soundly engineered
and manufactured and so satisfactory in the hands
of owners that drastic annual changes are not
required.
Authentic reports show that hundreds of Stude
baker cars have given from 125,000 to 400,000 miles
of sturdy, dependable service. One Studebaker Big
Six, used as a mail car, traveled almost 500,000 miles
in 5J years, giving 24-hour round trip service
between Bakcrsfield and Los Angeles, California.
Stupendous milcagcl But the same stamina and
rugged dependability is built into every Studebaker
that leaves the factory.
A Studebaker taxi in Jcwett City, Conn., has
traveled 31,008 miles without even having the valves
ground or the carbon removed.
In Stockton, Calif., a Studebaker Big Six has piled
up 138,000 miles over steep mountain grades and
rough country roads with negligible upkeep not a
single major part has been purchased or repaired by
reason of wear or accident.
It is a significant fact that wherever travel condi
tions are most severe, Studebaker by far outsells its
normal proportion of cars.
Bus Operators, Rent-a-Car Companies, Police and
Fire Departments all turn to Studebaker year after
year for their transportation equipment, because
they have found that it always yields scores of thou
sands of miles of reserve transportation, and has lev.
upkeep costs.
At the mileage when other cars are breaking up
Studebaker cars are breaking in. It's the second
and third fifteen thousand miles that prove Stude
baker superiority. It's this reserve mileage even
though you may never use it that greatly increases
Studebaker resale value.
Stamina is in-built inherent a vital and indis
pensable part of the Studebaker formula for build
ing fine motor cars.
Buy this "One Profit" car now
Remember under this new Studebaker policy
there is no need to delay the purchase of your new
automobile until annual changes have been made.
Lome in and see these sturdy, dependable, "one
profit automobiles. Today Studebaker offers greater
values than ever before. It is sound judgment to
buy now.
