MAKE "JOV-RIDERS" WALK.
Judge Wilbur, of the Los Angeles juvenile court
claims at last to have found a way to stop indiscriminate
motor cycle speeding. When A. M. Haas and Donah!
Wliitsell, 16-year-old boys, were brought before Wilbur
recently the judge meted out punishment that is likely to
exercise a restraining influence on other speed maniacs.
The lads were sentenced to give up their motors for a yea r.
Until that time has elapsed they may not throw a clutch
nor open a throttle on their machines..
It is an American trait to disobey laws when no out
is looking, and of late many deaths have been caused hy
speed maniacs. If Judge Wilbur's precedent be followed
and " joy-riders" made to walk, it would be far more ef fective
than the imposition of a fine.

There will be a -school meeting i i
the schoolhonse at Talent on Thurs
day evenins:, Amnist 19. to snhmif
the matter of having grades higher
than the eighth taught in the Talent
school. This is a matter that should
arouse the merest of the citizens of
his place. If Talent is to become
an education center, now is the tima
to make the start. There is nothing
that will give the impetus towards a
high school and the building up of
onr town than a practical -demonstration
of its advantages. With the
higher grades in onr school it is al
most certain that there will be sev
eral pupils from adjoining districts in
to attend. The immediate cost 'of
putting in the advanced grades may
bo considerable, but in the end the
advantages derived from it will be
great. Everyone who favors edu
cation should attend the meeting.
James Garvin and Samuel Nether
land have set a good example to the
citizens of Talent .by repairing tho
sidewalk near their place of business
Others in Talent should do likewise.
Talent is an unincorporated town
and there is no way of compelling,
tlio repairing of tho sidewalks, hut
it does look as if every business man
would see the advantages of repair
ing the sidewalks. What is the use
of representing our resources to the
stranger, and then when that strau-'
ger comes into onr midst let him sec
that we have a class of citizens who
have not enough pride in their town
to even repair the 'sidewalks? How
can we expect to grow when our cil
'izeus are liable at any time to get
ci-ipplcd from defective sidewalks?
