DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS If we pray for any earthly blessing, we must pray for it solely. "If it be God's will, if it be for our highest good;" but for all the best things we may pray without misgiving, without reservation—certain that, if we ask, God will grant them.—Canon Farrar. The purity of the home is the guarantee of national safety. There would be no security if the moral foundations of the home were shaken. Bring the child up to obey parents and teachers. This training in obedience may save the child from a life of crime, vice and lawlessness. Of course the Turk will flourish and have much his own way in Europe, so long as the European powers are divided and jealous as to the disposal to be made of Turkey. There are several things to be learned at college or university besides how to shine in athletics. The scholastic part of the college or university career should not be obscured. The Turk is behaved, so far as Christians are concerned, only when he is made to behave. America should make him behave, so far as American citizens and their possessions are concerned. Bankers of the country are serenely confident that business and industry are on the way to liveliness and prosperity. The bankers know what to expect, in these things. They see clear economic skies ahead. The leading bankers of the country are forecasting a prosperous fall. TURKS HOLD SCIMITAR AT EUROPE'S THROAT Turkish Nationalists again arrogantly are demanding the cession of European territory and privileges to them. Schism among the Allied powers emboldens the Ottoman. He is playing his old game—fattening himself off the jealousies and suspicions of Europe. News from the Near East is vacillating. One day it indicates complete settlement on a peaceful basis, of the questions at issue. The next day the news is bellicose, indicating that the Turks have taken up their hostile march upon Constantinople. All that is certain is that the situation is fraught with the gravest perils and yet the European powers do not work with that solidarity of action and purpose which would overweave the Turk and make him behave. Meantime, the political enemies of Premier Lloyd George, in the midst of this grave crisis, are raising a hue and cry for his political downfall, using the slogan referring to him as "magnificent in war, but a failure in peace." This attempt upon the political life of the renowned Premier has little chance of succeeding. His tact and resourcefulness may find a way out of the Near East crisis, and then many of those who now cry for his political crucifixion will turn about and praise him fuselily. Such is the fickleness of public opinion. AIR RECORD IS MADE FOR SUSTAINED FLIGHT A remarkable new record in aerial flight has been made, and it has been achieved here in Southern California. Two army aviators—Lient John A. MacReady and Oakley Kelly—have shattered all known records for sustained flights in a heavier-than-air machine. This notable feat was... The Turk is behaved, so far as Christians are concerned, only when he is made to behave. America should make him behave, so far as American citizens and their possessions are concerned. Bankers of the country are serenely confident that business and industry are on the way to liveliness and prosperity. The bankers know what to expect, in these things. They see clear economic skies ahead. The leading bankers of the country are forecasting a prosperous fall and winter in business and industry. Their forecast is worthy of respect, because they know intimately the conditions which produce prosperity or adversity. Official recognition of the national government of Mexico by the government at Washington would seem to be in order. It would strengthen the hands of President Obregon and should bind the two countries more closely together in friendship. Support the schools by word and deed. Vote for additional housing and equipment, when needed. Give words of encouragement to teachers and pupils. Stand by the schools as though they were your own personal property. They are, in a way. You have a proprietary interest in them. Manifest this interest. That Canadian forest fire, taking scores of lives and destroying property worth millions, is another horrible object-lesson in the peril of fire. Every conflagration of this kind should bring home its lesson to every man, woman and child. It should impress upon all the imperative need of exerciising extreme care in handling fire. AIR RECORD IS MADE FOR SUSTAINED FLIGHT A remarkable new record in aerial flight has been made, and it has been achieved here in Southern California. Two army aviators—Lieut. John A. MacReady and Oakley Kelly—have shattered all known records for sustained flights in a heavier-than-air machine. This notable feat was made at San Diego in the big army monoplane, T-2. The time made was thirty-five hours, eighteen minutes and thirty seconds. This exceeds, by several hours, the longest sustained flight previously made by a German aviator. Success of this test is attributed, by experts to the Liberty motor. The primary purpose of the demonstration was to try out the endurance qualities of this motor. The same two aviators soon will attempt to make a non-stop flight across the continent. It is noteworthy that the national government is recognizing the superiority of atmospheric conditions here in California for aerial feats of test and training. Intelligent, thinking voters no longer are impressed with "We point with pride" or "We view with alarm," in political platforms. The thoughtful, independent owl does his own pointing and viewing. He strips platform promises and claims of their camouflage and judges every party by what it actually has done or attempted to do; or by what it has failed to do, or failed to attempt to do.

The new improved Super-Six motor, introduced a few months ago, makes it the smoothest—most delightful of all the Hudsons to drive. It has charms in performance that owners of earlier models never knew. Everyone has conceded Hudson top place in reliability. For seven years it has led in fine car sales. More than 120,000 Super-Sixes are in service. The new prices and Hudson of today with refinement in chassis and body give it a attraction careful buyers of cars cannot ignore. Of special interest to those who aire a closed car at little more open car cost—is the Coach. Car of its utility and price advantage is to be found within $500 its cost.

Blessed are the peacemakers. The making of a treaty is a division of spoils. The making of peace is a revision of spoils. The rights of the minority are protected by nearly all states except the state of matrimony. A sophisticated woman is one who never leaves that conspicuous streak of powder under her chin. If there wasn't so much fiction about nations, there wouldn't be so much friction between them. It must be fine to be a French idol and have nothing to do but get knocked out once in a while. It is rather difficult to judge the social status of the new neighbors until you smell their dinners cooking. In this age of bluff and bluster, it is refreshing to meet a girl who talks about her "other frock." It isn't hard to love your neighbor unless he greets your best jokes with puzzled and unhappy silence. The married man has one advantage: Every once in a while he has a woman to greet him when he comes home. A sport car never will reach its highest development until manufacturers learn to nickel-plate tires. The notes you sing indicate that you are happy; the notes you sign indicate that you won't be happy long. About the only thing you can say NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—There is a spot in New York, where you may see its worst and its best. From a highpoint in Washington Heights close to the Hudson around One Hundred and Ninetieth street, you find yourself in the midst of grassy slopes, old trees, abandoned farm houses, and the remains of an older civilization. Just across a gulch to the east lies Broadway, built up tight with apartment houses, motion picture theaters, and all its characteristics lower downtown. Nestled among the trees on the prettier side are several old brick buildings, now utilized by George Grey Barnard, the sculptor, for housing his studios, and his famous Cloisters. The Cloisters represent a collection of ancient sculpture, arches, gargoyles and cathedral glass, some of it dating back to the sixth century. Mr. Barnard has set these old bits into appropriate brick structures, preserving their ancient fidelity, and exhibiting them exactly as they were taken from their original locations. The collection is an institution in itself, and frequently rumors reach us that it is to be bought and moved elsewhere. The city of Los Angeles is negotiating for it just now, and New York may well lament its passing if that event must come. Carl Friedberg, one of the best known pianists and piano teachers of Europe, will give a course of instruction in New York this winter. Mr. Friedberg made a concert tour of the leading cities of this country in 1914, but this will be the first occasion of THE BACKBREAK OF OUR CIVILIZATION IS MADE UP O' FELLERS THAT EAT IN THE SHIRT SLEEVES, CHEW SCrap T'BACKER, SAY 'HAIN' T'SAW,' AN' TRIM THE RINGER NAILS IN PUBLIC, SO DON'T NAG 'EM.'

When Greek meets Greek, then comes the abdication. Oct. 27 has been set aside as National Navy day. However, the sailors are interested in Oct. 20—which is pay day. CHANSON AMOUR You made me what I am today. As through the years we've rambled; Now rectify the mess you've made—I want to be unscrambled French baron arrested for stealing an actresses' car. The lower class just won't behave. A reporter has discovered that a rancher can't legally kill a hunter who trespasses on his property. What's the difference to a dead hunter whether it was done legally or not? Mexico is considering national prohibition. Considering everything, prohibition in Mexico is something to consider. In Louisville Ky., a pickpocket robbed a girl in the sheriff's office. Thirty deputies present escaped without loss. A Freshman from the Amazon. Put nightlies of his Gramazon; The reason's that He was too fat To get his own Pajamazon. A man can do without any trouble, but he can't do much. Mr. Anon has been checking up on Heeza Dumbell and says that Heeza is so dumb that he thinks: That Gem razors are South African miners. That the Knights of Columbus is a novel. That San Diego's Sun (Sandy Ago's son) is a Scotchman. A philosopher believes he might as well smile because things are going wrong anyway. Carl Friedberg, one of the best known pianists and piano teachers of Europe, will give a course of instruction in New York this winter. Mr. Friedberg made a concert tour of the leading cities of this country in 1914, but this will be the first occasion of his teaching here. Frank Damrosch director of the Institute of Musical Art, who has just returned from Europe, announced that the pianist will come here in February to give this course at the institute, for the most advanced students. Teachers and accredited amateurs from outside the institute will be able to attend as listeners. During his visit here six years ago, Mr. Friedberg played with symphony orchestras of New York, Boston, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, St. Louis and other cities and gave several concerts in conjunction with Fritz Kreisler, in addition to his individual concerts. Ernest Almless is an apartment dweller, like the rest of us. He has a studio, of course, and has been the cook of his loft, only one other tenant living on the floor with him. That tenant was most inoffensive and seldom around, so that when he moved in the general moving scramble here on the first Ernest was distressed for fear he would draw a less desirable neighbor. His feeling turned to horror when the moving man, who took the tenant out, announced his intention of moving in. Ernest could not quite see this type of person in his artistic surroundings, and acted to prevent the catastrophe. First, he called attention to the fact that there was no heat in the apartment and that he gas grate cost about fifteen a month during the cold weather. He then reminded him that the water pressure was very bad and that to take a bath on Sunday night required turning on the water Monday morning. That settled it, but now Ernest is complaining that it takes all of his time shooing off tenants who do not look good to him. We are to have a season adorned with titles, according to the present prospect. A veritable flood of English nobility is promised during the coming months. Lord and Lady Mountbatten, who are already here, are of course the most important, since they represent the reigning family of Great Britain. Very soon the daughter and son-in-law of Ogden Mills, the Earl and Countess of Granard, and their pretty children are coming, and the Mills residence on Fifth avenue and Sixty-first street is receiving an unusual amount of attention in anticipation of their visit. The Marques and Marchioness of Dufferin will be our next titled visitors according to present plans. It isn't hard to love your neighbor unless he greets your best jokes with puzzles and unhappy silence. The married man has one advantage. Every once in a while he has a woman to greet him when he comes home. A sport car never will reach its highest development until manufacturers learn to nickel-plate tires. The notes you sing indicate that you are happy; the notes you sign indicate that you won't be happy long. About the only thing you can say for the fluctuating height of the skirt hem is that it gives the waistline a rest. The girl who isn't afraid of freckles needn't worry about rescue homes. In this free and glorious country, every man has a chance to advance except the one who thinks the boss is an enemy. It is hard to be pessimistic when you remember that war hatreds, doughboy French and white shoes are disappearing. Correct this sentence: "After five years of marriage the man brought his wife a box of roses and she expressed no surprise." The office cynie says a man should patronize the members of his own church unless some outside bootleger has a little imported stuff. America may tax the whole people for the sake of a few, but even that is better than Europe's plan of taxing the whole people for the sake of a feud. WISE AND WITTY A lender's memory is better than a borrowers. The man who can't laugh is a menace to any community. One sign of old age is when a man thinks all women are good looking. In applying flattery, you get better results with an atomizer than with a sprinkling can. It is a serious mistake for any girl to get married before her father can afford it.

The name of George Baldwin Selden would mean little to the average newspaper reader, if it were not coupled with the explanation that he was the inventor of the automobile. He died the other day in Rochester N. Y. There is considerable dispute, as usual, over the credit for this great invention. Some maintain that the first practical, commercial motor car was built by Ransom E. Otis at Lansing, Mich. Others give the honors of Shelden's claim to have been the pioneer developer of the internal combustion engine which is used now by nearly all automobiles, and which has made the airplane possible. He began working on a self-propelled steam hicle in 1873, but soon gave that up.

The name of George Baldwin Selden would mean little to the average newspaper reader, if it were not coupled with the explanation that he was the inventor of the automobile. He died the other day in Rochester N.Y. There is considerable dispute, as usual, over the credit for this great invention. Some maintain that the first practical commercial motor car was built by Ransom E. Otis at Lansing, Mich. Others give the honor to Alexander Winton of Cleveland. Although priority is claimed for an Englishman named Butler and a German named Daimler, there is little question in this country at least, of Shelden's claim to have been the pioneer developer of the internal combustion engine which is used now by nearly all automobiles, and which has made the airplane possible. He began working on a self-propelled steam hicle in 1873, but soon gave that up. The idea occurred to him of utilizing, instead of steam pressure, the pressure produced by explosions within a closed chamber. He exhausted, one by one, the possibilities of ammonia gas, bisulphite of carbon and other liquid fuels, and finals, in 1876 concluded that the solution of the problem was to be found in volatile petroleum products. The "gas engine" and the motor car followed quickly. Chaffees WHERE CASH BEATS CREDIT Store No. 36—Now at 127 W.
