A record for Scranton, Pa., was
established recently when the
ISranton Drygoods Company car
ried more than 37 pages of ad
vertising in the three daily news
papers in connection with a one-
day sale. The management of
}the store reported after th« sale
that all business records for a
day were shattered. Special
traffic policemen had to he used
to handle the crowds that flocked
lo the store.
An appl’caton of electricity
whereby fish are literally
"shocked” away and saved
from destruction by the turbine
wheels of hydroelectric plants
has recently been developed in
Oregon. The device is made up of
two parallel rows of electrodes
suspended from a wooden frame-
mg down stairs than are killed
and injured in fires. "The ma
jority of street accidents are
caused by little acts of thought
lessness, rather than drunkeness
or other violation of the law in
driving automobiles.” A care-
fuli analysis of sheet and high
way accidents shows that .about
15 per cent are caused by back
ing carelessly to get parking
spaces. Failure to get under
proper control when approaching
street intersections causes an
other 15 per cent. Following too
close behind a vehicle to abow
proper brakeing distance ac
counts for 12 per cent of ac
cidents. Improper sign a I i n g
causes 10 per cent, and skidding
eight per cent. Miscellaneous
small acts of neglect cause 30
per cent while drunkeness and
other violations of the law cause
only 10 per cent of accidents

The Perrine Vacuum Fireplace
I have overcome the baek-freezing and the face-burning question.
A larger opening and a small firebox.
I can remodel any fireplace, or install the Perrine idea with any design
mantle you wish.
I absolutely control the fire in the firebox; no gases or smoke in the
room.
Have you a fireplace that smokes? Let me get at it; I will guarantee it,
or no pay.

New York State leads the wav
in taking definite aclion to re
duce crime. Instead of passing
new laws and regulations to en
croach upon the rights and privi
leges of law-abiding citizens, it
passed the Baumes law in 1926,
Which automatically sentenc«-a
life imprisonment. Naturally,
there have been objections to
this law because it has "teeth”
in it, but if crime is to be re
duced the number of criminals
and potential criminals must also
be reduced. There is no excuse
for a man committing four crimes
of a character to involve a pcni-
tentairy sentence. Why should
I he public be subjected to the
danger of meeting habitual crim
inals? New York has taken a
step in the right direction. Il
should be upheld in its program
to catch the crook, keep him
caught, hand him a fitting sen
tence, and see that he serves
it. Sentimental individuals claim
«hat severe punishment noes not
deter the ciiminal, but makes
him hate society. This appar
ently lias not been the ease in
New York. The certainty of
life imprisonment for a fourth
felony has stayed the hand of
hardened criminal. He thinks
before sentencing himself under
such a law. What New York
has done'the rest of the country
must do if it actually desires to
overcome the criminal elements:
make crime not only unprofitable
but highly inconvenient and
dangeious fo the perpetrator.

Ninety per cent of all indust
rial, home, street and highway,
accidents are from trivial causes.
Major violations of the law and
spectacular acts of criminal neg
ligence produce but a small frac
tion of the total number of
deaths arid injuries that occur
annually,” declared Marcus A.
Dow, eminent safety engineer.
"Boards left lying on factory
floors with nails sticking up in
them cause more serious injuries
than
boiler explosions.
