The firet is the daily vacation Bible school wliich,vns sUigcd with such success here lor the first timo last summer; and tho second .is the public playground .supervision that is advocated for July and August. '1 The' ;playgi'ounds would be provided in three different sections of the city and would give organized recreation to the children of the city. Both projects are worthy because they offer carefully directed activities to many children who would otherwise be idle, and the result will be better youthful citizens physically, morally and men tally. : 7 , .... . ., ... r . , .... f MOTHKH-IN-LAW DAY. , " The Exchange club of Meridian, Miss., is reported to be making preparations for the observance of "Mother-in-Law Day" at some day yet to be fixed. A program committee is it work and something of "unusual interest'' is prophe-j Bled. At inst tnis sounds line one more veiwon ot tne ancient mother-in-law joke. "Actually, however, it may 1 1 a i i . : r . i i i l : 1 mapK me iiegiuiiiiiu; .oij-jt new aim juaiei policy. After all, mothers-in-law are useful. They undoubtedly ;do more good than mischief. They have a wonderful way of coming to tho rescue with' cheerfut services' in times of emergency. They make nice grandmothers, They come (across .with more helpful advice than harsh criticism., But why give them a separate day of honor? ;i They are her&v first, 'before they are mothers-in-law, and the one's who arc good, successful mothers to their own chil dren do not change their nature and habits when those children ..marry. Give the mothers-in-law due honor and jlove in the Mothers' Day observances already established, jand justice and affection will be better served. OLD AND NEW CARS. ."The biggest problem of the automobile , business to- :day," says a dealer"is disposing of the accumulating stock (of used cars traded in on now ones." Automobile manu facturing is more efficient than ever before. 1 Automobiles are better than ever before. Compared with othor manu j factored products, .and with former prices," there are few ipurchases that give the buyer so much for his money. Cars can be made and sold in unlimited quantities. , . .But this very situation has created the problem com plained of. Because people buy tho new cars so readily, jthe old, ones are turned in before they Have outlived their (Usefulness. So the stock of used oil's piles up and denim's 'have more and more trouble getting rid of them. This is beginning to work backward and check the orders for new 'cars, threatening to slow down the automotive industry. . It might do no harm to slow down a little this nbun idaiitly prosperous industry, and give some of the other in dustries a chance to catch up, but the problem may solve itself. There is a natural and obvious solution. It all de pends on the state of mind of the nutomobilisls, j Since it has got so that the possessor of an old ear, when ho trades it in for a now one, can seldom obtain what he thinks it is worth, he tends more and more to keep it himself, and use it as an extra when he buys a new car. Two cars, one new and one old, may soon come to be the lute. That will enable the old ones to get their natural wear and give full value to the original purchaser, while keeping up tho demand for new ones. Yes, the wife will drive the new one, and you the old one. You run mill rind inodi'Hly Innocence In the dictionary. UMll tic "I'll Inko tliu rirr,t lu lances."
