EXACT CAREFULNESS IN AUTO DRIVING The careless, incompetent driver is coming into very stern disfavor with the constituted authorities in California. The Legislature will be asked and urged to enact measures stiffening tests and requirements for applicants for driver's licenses. District Attorney Keyes is working actively to effect reforms and to abate this menace. Co-operating with him are many organizations of the Southland. Physical examination of every driver or applicant and tests to determine each motorist's mechanical ability are among the chief suggestions which are to be formulated in to a tentative state law to be urged upon the Legislature. Other suggestions are: Heavier penalties in manslaughter cases and a change in the law to enable courts to sentence drivers to the county jail when they cannot be convicted of manslaughter; and provision that every driver who has had three accidents must have a black license plate, instead of the ordinary color. This would serve as a warning to other motorists, as well as to those who must display the black plates. Heroic measures must be adopted to curb the carelessness and incompetence found among drivers. The number of the reckless and incompetent is small compared with the total number of licensed drivers. But the menace of the few stigmatizes, in some measure, the careful many. This should not be. Each individual is shaping his or her destiny, day by day. Prejudices and blind partisanship are sorry elements in politics. Conscience and honesty are the rule in business, not the Heroic measures must be adopted to curb the carelessness and incompetence found among drivers.

DURER SAYINGS The man in the corner seat was heard to groan so terribly that he frightened the other passengers, and one hastily produced a flask and told him to take a good swig of it. Which he did. "Do you feel better now?" asked the giver. "I do that," said the man in the corner. "What were you suffering from?" "Suffering from?" "Yes; what made you groan so?" "Groan! Why, confound you, I was singing." An American in London was bragging about his automobile. He ended his enquiry by declaring: "It runs so smoothly that you can't feel it, so quietly you can't hear it, has such perfect ignition you can't smell it, and as for speed—boy, you can't see it." "But, my word, old dear," interrupted the Briton, anxiously, "how do you know the bally thing is there?" Bernard Shaw has a reputation for being self-possessed to the verge of being inhuman. In a letter to a friend he once illustrated the fact that he never cried over split milk by likening himself to an Indian prince whose favorite wife, when banqueting with him, caught fire and was burnt to ashes before she could be extinguished. The Indian prince took in the situation at once and faced it in a thoroughly Shavian manner. "Sweep up your misseus," he said to his weeping staff, "and bring inthe roast pheasant!" Two men, evidently business partners, took their places in the line that was wending its way toward the ticket window for the evening performance. Suddenly one of the men seemed to remember something. He clapped one hand to his forehead, gasped and in consternation said to his part- PILE Cuprable without surgery.

Extracts of certain glands, like the thyroid and the pancreas, possesses certain well-known medicinal virtues; but the extravagant claims made for "gland treatment," as a cure for all, are unwarranted. A Class Ad is best little salesman. Health and Diet Advice By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" FOOD COMBINATIONS (Continued) PROTEID COMBINATIONS. (Continued.) If proteid and starch are used at the same meal the starch will be rendered unfit for digestion in the small intestines by this delay in the stomach and the proteid food will not be perfectly digested and assimilated because of the starch interference, so it seems advisable not to use both of these at the same meal. STARCHES. Starch is a very concentrated food and requires the combination of some other bulky foods such as the non-starchy and salad vegetables to assist in separating it thoroughly, so that the digestive juices may penetrate and the starch be more easily digested. Those animals, such as the cow, which use the largest amount of starch, masticate the starchy grains which they eat, and their chewing of the cud is simply for the purpose of digesting the starch by the action of their saliva. They also grind up along with the starch all of the green succulent vegetables they can find, and when man eats starchy food, exactly the same combinations should be used as the farmer feeds to such of his cattle as chew the cud, excepting that in place of hay, man confines himself to the tender, succulent, non-starchy vegetables. Cattle must always be given enough hay with their grain and whenever a domestic animal breaks into the grain bin and eats too much of this kind of starch without having hay at the same time, the animal is liable to die of violent digestive disturbances. I do not believe that we should copy animals exactly in our habits of eating, but I find that the successful farmer is often more careful about the feeding of his cattle than he is in the feeding of his children or of himself, and it is reasonable enough at times to look for valuable lessons from some of these homely animal comparisons. (To be continued) GEN. W. W. ATTERBURY Although the retirement of Samuel Ren as president of the Pennsylvania railroad system will not occur until he reaches the age of 70 next year his successor has already been chosen, according to word from New York. The man is Gen. W. W. Atterbury, now vice-president. William Wallace Atterbury was born in New Albany, Ind., January 31, 1866, and was educated at Yale University, where he received a Ph. B. degree at the age of 20. In 1911 he was granted an honorary A. M. degree by the same university and in 1919 he received the degree of LL. D. from the University of Pennsylvania. The year of Mr. Atterbury's graduation from Yale University he began work as an apprentice in the Altoona shops of the Pennsylvania railroad. Later he became road foreman on various divisions of the same line. From 1892 to 1893 he was assistant engineer of the Northwest System of the Pennsylvania Lines motive power. During the three years that followed Atterbury was stationed at Fort Wayne, Ind., as master mechanic for the Pennsylvania company and for the next seven years until 1903 he served as general superintendent of lines east of Pittsburgh and Erie, Pa. From 1903 to 1909 he was general manager of that division. During the world war Atterbury was granted a leave of absence by the Pennsylvania railroad and in the rank of brigadier general of the U. S. army he directed construction and operation of the U. S. military railroads in France. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal by the United States, France, England and Belgium honored him by making him commander of the Legion of Honor, companion of the Order of the Bath and commander of the Order of the Crown. Atterbury is a member of the COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying COMMERCIALIZED ATHLETICS—Glendale News Commercialized athletics are bringing more notoriety than credit upon schools and colleges, and the recent clash between Stanford and California and U. S. C. is only another example proving that the entire system is wrong. Athletic coaches drawing salaries larger than those of college professors and even presidents, give all their attention to developing a champion team of some kind. The athletic prowess of a few trained athletes is given columns of newspaper space all over the country, while other students, including championship debating teams and those who win other academic honors, are never heard outside their own schools. One must judge from reading newspapers that the colleges and universities are operating solely to turn out championship athletic teams. GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE "BREVITY IS THE SOUL OF WIT" It is more difficult to be truly wise in fifteen words than in fifty or five hundred. It is a characteristic of great wit to convey a great deal in a few words. La Rochefoucauld, Frenchman (full name, Francois Due de la Rochefoucauld), one of the great wits of all times, compressed more cynical wisdom into his less than a thousand maxims than most men could produce in as many pages, and made it obvious that "Brevity is the soul of wit." "We have all of us sufficient fortitude to bear the misfortunes of others." "Philosophy triumphs easily over past, and future evils, but present events triumph over philosophy." "It requires greater virtue to support good than bad fortune." "Nothing ought to so diminish the good opinion we have of ourselves as to see that we disapprove at one time what we approve at another." "Truth does not do so much good in the world as its appearances do evil." "Grace to the body what good sense is to the mind." "It is difficult to define love. All that we can say of it is that in the soul it is a passion for reigning; in minds it is a sympathy; and in the body it is nothing but a latent and delicate desire to possess the loved object, after a good deal of mystery." "Almost everyone feels shame in being loved when they love no more." "If we judge love by the generality of its effects, it resembles hatred rather than friendship." was granted a leave of absence by the Pennsylvania railroad and in the rank of brigadier general of the U.S. army he directed construction and operation of the U.S. military railroads in France. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal by the United States, France, England and Belgium honored him by making him commander of the Legion of Honor, companion of the Order of the Bath and commander of the Order of the Crown. Atterbury is a member of the American Philosophical society, of the American Society of Civil Engineers, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, American Academy of Political and Social Science and the American Railway Association of which he was president from 1915 to 1917.

NOTHING ought to so diminish the good opinion we have of ourselves as to see that we disapprove at one time what we approve at another. Truth does not do so much good in the world as its appearances do evil. Grace to the body what good sense is to the mind. "It is difficult to define love. All that we can say of it is that in the soul it is a passion for reigning; in minds it is a sympathy; and in the body it is nothing but a latent and delicato desire to possess the loved object, after a good deal of mystery." Almost everyone feels shame in being loved when they love no more. If we judge love by the generality of its effects, it resembles hatred rather than friendship. Love of justice in the generality of men is only the fear of suffering from injustice. Men would not long live in society if they were not the dupees of each other. Everyone complains of his memory, and no one complains of his judgment. Everyone speaks well of his heart but no one dares to do so of his head. We are inconsolable at being deceived by our enemies, and betrayed by our friends; and yet we are often content to be so by ourselves. Weakness of mind is the only fault incapable of correction. It is more easy to be wise for others than for ourselves. The good copes are those which exhibit the defects of bad originals. C. M.
