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-

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

as the science and art of living is
concerned.
EXPERIENCES OF WORLD’S

(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.
