that one fourth the victims of
street accidents in that place
are under five years of age.
Another fourth is between the
ages of five and 15 years. Last
year in Boston there were half
as many deaths from street ac
cidents as from tuberculosis,
the great scourge.
The danger of such accidents
is of course more pressing in
crowded cities than in smaller
places. However the danger
is real even in towns the size
of Freewater and Pendleton,
as the fatal accident at Free
water shows.
It is obvious that autoists
need to take extreme care for
the safety of children of the

so that children need careful
instruction along the line of
safeguarding themselves. Co

apt to result fatally.

A QUESTION OF WAR
METHODS
jm HE issue between the Uni
ted States and Germany
arises from the use in this
wax of methods heretofore un
known to the world and which
methods are not in keeping
with the recognized rules of ci
vilized warfare.
The Lusitania case was an
instance of ruthless campaign
ing; the sinking of the Sussex
was equally bad, if not worse,
and even where ships have
been warned the danger to
non-combatants has been
great. The Inverlyon furnish
es a case in point. This ship!
was stopped 110 miles off the j v-jew
coast ot ireiana. i nose on i
board were given 15 minutes in !
which to take to the life boats. !
tlV March 1. 1915, the Uni
lip ted States put a law into
enect wnose purpose is
to lessen the traffic in habit-
forming or narctic drugs. It
has now become possible to
make a reckoning as to the re
sults from this Harrison law.
This law is considered the
most comprehensive and effi
cient ever enacted against the
sale and use of habit-forming
drugs. It provides an original
method of controlling the
manufacture, sale and use of
proscribed drugs as prescrip
tions from their arrival as raw
materials imported to their
consumption. The undertak
ing is a huge one. It deals not
only with importers, manufac
turers and sellers, but with 500
manufacturing chemists and
wholesale druggists, 3000 hos
pitals, 1100 veterinarians, 42,
000 dentists, 48,000 retail drug
gists and 140,000 physicians,
the members of each of these
vocations registering under the
new law. The governmental
authorities charged with en
forcement of the law have the
cooperation of 250,000 persons
and firms.
From the beginning the law
has broken down much of the
sale of narcitics to those who
should not have them. But the
underworld has not been con
quered. In great cities syn
dicates have systematically
smuggled the proscribed
drugs. The smugglers work
through ports of entry and
across our Mexican and Cana
dian borders. Spokesman-Re-
DINOSAURS AND SUCH
The sea was stormy and the
people forced to rely upon
boats for safety were in great
peril. One of the boats, in
which two Americans were
carried, managed to reach
port, all those in the boat be
ing in an exhausted condition
when rescued.
Such warfare as that should
not obtain in a civilized world.
It is not warfare against war

Drobable death, it is warfare

thren are pointing to the

He trusted to prepar
edness and had no intelligent

That brings us to the ques
tion of what is an intelligent
foreign policy for an unpre
pared and defenseless nation.

OWNKRSKU' OF LIGHTS
(San Francisco Examiner.)
The efforts of citizens to secure a
splendid lighting scheme for Market
street are approaching a successful
conclusion. A great deal of effort has
been necessary to bring about the de
sired result a result that will be of
advertising value to the city and a
pride and convenience to the cltliens.
And some further effort Is still neces
sary and some further generosity on
the part of property owner.
This effort should bring to the men
most intimately concerned and to the
cltliens generally the value of munici.
pal ownership in such matters, and It
may cause them to cast their eye for
w srd to the time wnen the Hetchy
Hetchy water project, when fully de
veloped, will furnish San Francisco
with lighting at a price that will not
make It a struggle to illuminate or.e
thoroughfare without robbing other
thoroughfares of adequate illumina
tion. Seattle can give to a San Francisco
student of civic conditions some val
uable ideas and examples In this mat
ter. Seattle is a much smaller oiti
than San Francisco. It 1 not neurit-!
as rich a city. But It ha far better
street illumination than her greater
sister by the Golden Gate.
The main streets of Seattle are
lighted for many miles by five-globe
electroliers placed ninety and ore
hundred feet apart on both sides ot
the thoroughfares. For many more
mile three-globe electroliers llcrht
the way Into far residential districts.
There is adequate lighting, In short,
an.l the burden is not too great for
the city to bear.
The secret lies In the fact that Se
attle owns her own hydro-electric
plant and sells light and power in suc
cessful competition with private cor
porations. She lights her own streets
from her own plant. Seattle wouldn't
think of going back to the old condi
tions when she was at the mercy of
private ownership. San Francisco has
been slow in such matters. The fight
for municipal ownership of public
utilities has been a long one. But it Is
going steadily forward all the time.

Who Can Explain Away
177 Superfluous Parts
In a Motor Car?
THE difference between water-cooling and
air-cooling in a motor car is that direct-air-cooling
does it more efficiently, and takes
177 less parts to do it
The Franklin is the car! The only moving part
in the Franklin Direct-Air-Cooling system is the
turbine fan, and that fan is itself part of the flywheel.
It take 177 parts and some gas to pump the water
around the cylinder and through the radiator and then
you've got to watch out for old 212 Fahrenheit in the
Summer and 32 Fahrenheit in Winter. Besides all the
bother, think of the wear and tear!

detecUve, to meet the child In Jersey
City. He did so.
Coakley took the little girl to the
address she had given. No such per
son as the man Therese had said was
her brother was known there. Then
she told the detective she had an
aunt, Anna McDermott, living at an
other address. Again the detective
found that the girl had gotten the
address from her Imagination.
He took her to the Children's So
ciety. There she stuck to the story
she had told. She also spoke as one
well acquainted with both downtown
and uptown New York. The officials
were baffled.
Investlgtion in Philadelphia showed
that a Therese Duby had been report,
ed missing. A picture of Therese was
sent to Mrs. Duby. The mother nl'

that of her daughter.
When The'rese was told of this she
denied that her name was Duby. She
even went so far as to express sym
pathy for the Mrs. Duby who has ap
parently lost a daughter. However,
she was put aboard a train for Phila
