When he breaks into jail for committing wrongs of varying degrees of gravity society as a whole has been sleeping on the job. Thst so many of those In this army of 27 million will wind up on the gallows Is not due to teachers or parents Instructing them in the science and art of wrong doing. It such were the case, the problem would be simple, merely a matter of weeding out thoee few pedagogues who impart such instruction. How ever, any number of those who em bark on careers of crime which lead to such endings have had the very best of instruction st both home snd school. Yet notwithstanding there is something they haven't gotten that they should have. Perhaps too much emphasis is laid on curing the disease of crime rather than pre- venting it. This suggests the thought of cor- reet living. Is the group of 27 mil- lion being given a firm grip of this art? Not all those who fall to learn the art are going to be murderers. If such were the case they would soon have one another killed off. But on the other hand all those who will take the life of their fellow man will be found to be illiterate as far as the science and art of living is concerned. EXPERIENCES OF WORLD’S FAIR TRIP RELATED. (Continued from last week.) Back in Minneapolis again, a large red “X" at rather frequent Intervals on the pavement, indica ted where some one had been fatally injured in a car accident and made a driver feel very cautious. The Ford dealer at Albert Lea, Minnesota, has no trouble selling a Ford because it is a Ford. The one at Blue Earth said, "I just returned from California last week. Down there I saw a negro chauffeur driv ing a V-8. I said to him, ‘How come’ and he said, ‘the boss liked it.” Across the Dakotas we made a startling discovery about gas. Here tofore, we thought all gas was about the same, but using a gas of i new name, we were alarmed to find we were only making 12 and 14 miles per gallon. Changing to Red Crown, we averaged 20 miles to the gallon travelling at a good i peed, a higher rate of speed. Across South Dakota was the most desolate country encountered. Numberless homes were deserted. SAT. NITE CRONKS BARN Estimated Expenditures. I Lil ___ J I General Government Salary City Recorder . $ Salary City Attorney . ...............

At Rapid City, South Dakota, there is a great influx of business owing to the stratosphere ascent be ing made from there this summer. Awaking to find five Inches of snow in Buffalo, Wyoming, we swung north to Livingston, Monta- na, avoiding the Big Horn Moun- tains. In Livingstone, the Ford dealer has outsold "all three' and again does not have the problem of this region. Swinging south to Yellowstone, we saw Old Faithful geyser spout in the moonlight and were some what concerned about a shortage of funds due to the fact that oil com- pany credit cards were not so well known in the east yet. The oil com- pany credit cards are a great pro tection to the traveler making it necessary to carry less money. Travelling all night on the bright ly moonlit oiled highways of Idaho. the next day found us again settled in the more active west. Our im- pressions were that the west Is more on the advance and that this par ticular section of the country is the coming one owing to Its assurance of moisture, and more temperate cli- mate.
