In decid ing a case it may make a statement concerning a related point, and that statement, being unessential to the decision, is known as a dictum and is not a decision on the point. The difficulty faced by the su preme court, in the Olcott case, seems to have been an unwillingness to decide a most important point by a mere dictum. The question, before the court was whether or not Mr. Olcott could legally draw bis salary as secretary of state and also a salary as governor. The question of his term as governor was not in volved nor any question as to his right to resign as secretary, con tinue as governor and appoint a new secretary. Two of the justices seem to have taken this view and to have ruled on the salary question only. State ments in the other opinions on the related subject are dicta. Possibly some way may be found to get the question squarely before the court, but Mr. Olcott would be perfectly safe in going at it in another way that is, in putting the case up to the people by taking his chance on elec tion next year.

When Uncle Sam's armies finished the war the motor transport corps "ywiprlsed a force of rouyhly 150,000 craiued drivers of motortrucks, cars and motorcycles. Of this great force, only about half were trained drivers when, they en listed for the service, so It was ueces' sary in order to have this force of men to train 75,000 men to drive auto motive vehicles. The ammunition trains, supply trains, sanitary trains ami cusuul mo torized units which first wont over seas were composed of trained driv ers, as a rule. Those who came after were the men who did not know cars, engines, or any of the problems of driving, particularly such problems as driving over roads under shell fire or with the great congestion of the roads to the fighting xone in France. The men who came in the second great rush of men for the army had there fore to be trained from the very be ginning to know the machine, and then to know the problems of driving in formation on military roads. Big Problems Presented. The two big phases were the teach ing of the mechanism of the truck engine 1 say truck because this was by far the more vital part of the training of driving In military forma tions of huge fleets of trucks. Now that the war is over the prob lem of teaching the mechanism of the machine is by far the more important to the commercial truck operator. As to the military formation required in the army, this can be disposed of quickly. On the Mexican border, and with the Pershing expedition Into Mexico, the problem of mass operations with trucks was of minor importance. .The drivers went forward with some sem blance of military formation, with certain distances between trucks, ami with some attempt nt military cohe sion. The truck work, however, was more or less of a problem of every ninn to drive Ills own machine. New System Developed. When the Ainerlcun iiriuy reached France, with the greatly restricted area of operation, the shorter tils Unices for imllimry hauls, uud the In tense congestion of the roads, it was necessary to develop u mllltury pre cision In handling of trucks, before Hint unheard of. The French trail port was first to develop this pre cision, and its vital need wan .shown In the British offensive on the Aisne in 1917, when the enormous uuiiibor of over 5,300 trucks moved nn entire British corps in military formation Into the fighting line. Such a column meant nearly 100 miles of length for the train. And to have this body of trucks operating properly the strict est discipline was required. This truck discipline was flrst sys tematized on the French lines by work and experiments at Camp Johnson, Fla near Jacksonville, the mother school of the motor transport corps, und was soon developed luto book form and standardized for the army. Thorough Training Given. - To the commercial truck operator. however, the work done to train the drivers in the handling of their vehi cles was far more Important. Every man who went Into the corps wua given a thorough training In the opera tion ot the motor vehicles, and while the Camp Johnston school was work log out truck discipline enormous re pair and shop units were In full op eration In. other parts of the country. Such, for Instance at Camp Holnhird. near Baltimore, and at Atlanta, while over in the West there were such units as at San Antonio. These were mechanical organizations for repair work und for simp training. Writes Treaty by Hand. News dispatches from Paris report ed the old tradition that treaties shall be written by hand survives, nnil that Joseph Carlo of the French ministry of foreign affairs, official caligraphlst end painter, wrote the new peace trenty. For 40 years th? post of official Ilia rainator in the French ministry of for eign affairs was held by M. Gnrnpln. according to the Detroit News. He had one love In l'fe "the pen," to quote -his own words, "this simple and marvelous Instrument through which human thought Is transcribed and forever preserved;" one hate "Ihe vulgar and unaesthetlc typewrit er, which prints without art pages that time will not respect" Miners Appreciated Books. Officials In charge of Iowa's circulat ing libraries were afraid to trust a set of hooks to the people In a certain Iowa mining district. . They were aftald the books would not be enred for properly, and thought lliey could be plnced where they would be used and appreciated more than In the min ing town. Through the efforts of the home demonstration agent, however, one traveling library was sent to the community on trial. The demonstra tion agent Interested the schoolboys, who mnde a ense In which the books were plnced. This small library led to much Interest among the people of the town, and the demonstration agent reports that not n single book has been lost or destroyed. A Great Objection, don't take any stock In these 'ere paytent medicines," asserted Lafo Lopp, a languid citizen of Wayover behind. "They're nn enemy to the human race.
