President Hoover's success as an engineer may ho due to the fact that he doesn't waste the steam on the whistle. If the United Stales ever becomes overcrowded increasing the number of week-ends and holidays will remedy the sit uation, When they look the swimming suits off the backs of fair bathers they took the food out of the mouths of the cloth weavers. Wo won't object to the more lively baseballs and golf balls if they don't give the militarists the idea of a more lively cannon ball to speed up the war game. HE. WAS ON THE SPOT Publicity has been given recently to an announcement by a so-called historial that July 2 and not July .1 should'properly bo celebrated ns Independence Day. The gentleman perhaps has never read any of George Washington's diaries, in "which wo may read the following entries: ' 'Sunday, July t, 1790; "Went t,o Trinity Church in the forenoon. This being the anniversary of the Declaration of Inedepenilency, the celebratioi-wns put off until tomor row." July 'I, 1798: "Went up to the Celebration of the Anniver sary of Independence and dined in the Spring Gardens near Alexandria with a large company of the Civil and Military of Fairfax County." And there are similar entries for other years. Surely George Washington and his compatriots knew -what they were doing. They were on the spot. SELF-REFORM Most reformers advocate such large measures that they cannot possibly be put into effect; so nothing comes of their efforts except a quarrel.' ' A modern philosopher makes a recommendation that is simple and workable. It is, briefly, that individuals better their own conduct, lie explains: "I do not suggest that a hundred thousand got together for a sunrise prayer-meeting, or that a million march on Washington, but that every individual accomplish reform by behaving a little liotter (hiring the day, and continue the good work during the evening." There were to be taxes, collections, drives or campaigns connected with such a reform movement. This new "reform er" is unique in that the reformers the nation has known in the past have always demanded something in payment, either in the form of a contribution or a vote or surrender of some personal liberty. Reform should begin at home, is the creed of this modern apostle of luHter living and better reform. It suggests that perhaps some of the reformers of old have been more piv fessional than spiritual. Kefoim comes from practice. U KKNKKDA V PItOdlt.lMS The Niulonul llroatlcuatlng Co.: fl:3tf.

Gilbert's moth-r had brought him ; down to the beach to spend the day. j They were playing ball when a friend '. of hers greeted them. Without excuse she dropped the j ball and sit down to one of thosa ; Intimate conversations which make ; It plain to any child that his pres. ence Is a nuisance. 'j Gilbert tried to be a good sport, j He bounced the ball for a while, i played along the edgt. of the water : and dug In the sand but mothe:; Btlll sat talking. At last he could en- I dure It no longer. He walked up'Kr his mother and said: j "Look hero mother, you had a date with me. You said that we were go-' ing to spend the day here at the ' beach together. You said we would play games and have a regular time : and now you are not doing any-: thing but Just sitting there and talking." j There was Justification in Gilbert's 1 complaint. His mother's time gener- ally was divided between social en- I gagementa and the tennis court. Al- ' thowh he was permitted at the fam-. lly dinner table there usually was i grownup company present and his ex istence was largely ignored. ' j He had counted on having his mother play with him this one day, and it was only natural for him to feel both hurt and disappointed that even now sho took tno first oppor tunity to escape from his society and devote herself to one of those ever present grownups. Children should have their Innings. They want sometimes to claim theii right to an exclusive enjoyment of , thtr parent's society. They do not need nor do thoy even want very muchof it, but when they have counted upon it for .some par- ; tlcular occasion It seems unfair to . disappoint them.

RoKirts for the year to date confirm the fears of nytny that tiaffic casualties this year will exceed all femu r years in proportion to number of vehicles in ojvration as well as in number of fatalities. The caina.ee is startling. Motor vehicles are killing men. women and children by the thousands and mangling them by the hundreds of thousands, and yet the only difference In'tween highways reasonably free fiom accidents and highways strewn with vieckage and dead and injured is a degree of care that is within tho easy reach of every driver. It is possible to drive safely under the most adverse condi tions, yet many do not drive safely when conditions aie most favorable. Most fatal accidents occur late at night when streets and highways ai-e relatively deserted, because many drivers throw all caie aside when they presume the way to 1 e clear. The trouble is that, in our hurry we seem to have forgotten the instinct of self-pivseivation. Not even uniform highway lvgulations. strict enforcement ei nignwav laws ami witter highways can n down the accident rale against such odds.
