The troops at Chatsaoping are separated by 400 to 600 metres. Other points are also being attacked. J The Soviet Consul-General at Seoul ; is departing for Moscow. It unofficial- ly reported that the Consulate-Gen- eral is being closed shortly. Japanese Army officers tell the New York Times correspondent that the hardest thing to take patiently is the Soviet aerial bombing of Koeran soil, which they say is "almost like Japan itself." According to the War Office, Soviet front-line troops are moving to the rear, apparently making room for re- placement which Tokio thinks is due to several desertions to Japan by Soviet soldiers. The Premier today asked the initial session of the National General Mobilization Council to draft two clauses of the National Mobilization Act for an Imperial ordinance provid- ing Government control of all physi- cians, surgeons, dentists, and nurses, which would be usable as needed in the national interests, and the control of employment of university and higher school graduates. : Soviet artillery and airplanes at- tacked the four-mile Japanese front in the most intensive firing thus far of the month-old Changfufeng border dispute.

(Emmetsburg Democrat) Mrs. A. J. Wolfgang, 73, a resident of Emmetsburg, since 1895, and one of the finest Christian women of this community, passed away suddenly in the St. Mary's hospital at Rochester, Minn., at. about 8.30 Tuesday, July 19. Death was the immediate result of a severe heart attack. Mrs, Wolfgang had been failing in health during the past six months. On Sunday she decided to call a local physician who, after examination, ad- vised her that she had a serious in- 4 | ternal disorder and that she should go immediately to Rochester. Lizzie McNutt was born on Scugog Island, near Port Perry, on June 24, 1865. She was 78 years of age at the time of her passing. She spent her youth in that locality. On September 6, 1893, she was united in marriage at Port Perry to Albert J Wolfgang, a native of Wisconsin, Mr. and Mrs. Wolfgang immediately came to Graet- tinger ,this coutny, where Mr. Wolf- gang was engaged in the drug busi- 34 { ness. They remained at Graettinger for about a year. They later spent a short time at Whittemore where Mr. Wolfgang was likewise occupied. In 1895 Mr. and Mrs. Wolfgang came to Emmetsburg where they have since resided and where Mr. Wolfgang has since conducted the well known drug store that bears his name. A daughter Grace, was born to Mr. and Mrs. Wolf- gang. She is Mrs. Roy Johnston of this city. . She and her father survive the deceased. There are also two brother, John McNutt of this city, and | Fred Allum of Chicago. She was for many years a leading member of the Eastern Star, also an active member "of the Methodist Epis- copal Church, and widely known in social and charitable circles. Mrs. Wolfgang was a woman of high ideals and a cultured mind. She was capable and enjoyed the really She readily recog- Her There was no limit to the had nothing but In her passing she leaves to her husband, to her daughter-and to the other imediate relatives a memory they will long cherish--a memory of a life well lived, a soul always striving for perfection, and a woman whose admirable human qualities were second to none. » RADIOS # ELECTRIC A LIMITED QUANTITY of Brarid New and slighfly used Battery and Electric Radios to clear | at greatly reduced prices to make way for fall merchandise.

McEvoy, noted satirist, novelist and feature writer, recently wrote a book called "Father Meets | Son", published by J. B. Lippincott Co., in which a modern father, patterned after the famed Lord Chesterfield, wrote a series of letters to his son who had just entered the business world after a rather hectic college career. The letters discussed every aspect of the young man's life -- questions of employment, marriage, social responsibilities, and so on. * : Un one occasion the lad, wha was working at the time as a private chauffer, took his employer's car out one night without permission and "wrapped it around a lamp-post." Father McEvoy, when he heard about the accident, sat down and wrote his son a letter containing a great deal of food for thought which should be thoroughly digested by everyone who drives a car. Here is what he wrote: : Dear Son,--You used up a lot of paper explaining how the accident was not your fault, and I can believe you. But you are going to continue to drive cars, and a few words on the subject won't do any harm. In the 25 years that I have been driving automobiles, I have never met anyone who had an accident through his own fault--it was always the car, the road, or the Other Fellow. Mostly, the Other Fellow. nT : This Other fellow is worth some study. There seems to be no escaping him. To look at him, you would think he was harm- less, but last year he killed a great many people, and injured many, many more. I have seen the Other Fellow, and certainly he doesn't look like a killer. Sometimes he is a young, nice-looking kid like you. = Sometimes he is a mild-looking, middle-aged fellow like me. Sometimes he is a gentle sweet little woman likegyour mother, but that only goes to show you can't judge by appearance. He's a killer, and no mistake, and something is going to be done about it--or is it? Some time ago, the champion safety driver of one of the largest bus companies in the world was given a banquet and a medal. He had completed half a million miles wihout an accident. When they called on him for a speech, he rose and said: "I ain't much of a hand at making speeches. 1 suppose you want to know 'how I got away so long without an accident? I drive like the other fellow was crazy." So that seems to explain-it. The Other Fellow is crazy. you cut out of line on a two-lane road, don't expect him to let you push him into the ditch, so you can cut in again. to let you by. cause you are on his side of the road. enough to think they have the right of way just because they are on a through street and you are coming in oft a side street. If you like to pass on a hill, don't be surprised if a car comes over the crest and the driver doesn't leap over you or run under you. That would be the sane thing to do, of course--but you see, he's crazy. Yes, he's crazy, but you are rude--and that's what makes him crazy. [I doesn't matter so much if you are walking down the street and you are rude enough to push someone aside, but if you are rude cnough to push him aside with a three-ton automobile going sixty miles an hour, you'll kill him. You can elbow your way through a crowd, if you are that impolite, and do no damage at all. But when you elbow your way through traffic with your bad manners stepped up to a hundred horsepower, you're bound to do a lot of damage to a lot of innocent people. For every accident caused by high speeding, there are a thousand caused by low breeding. Is it coincidence that the con- tinent which leads in fatalities lags in formalities? We may not be the most uncivil people on two feet, but we certainly are the prize terrors on four wheels. My boy, you may think it is sissy to be polite, but a kiss on a warm cheek is worth two on a cold brow. Today we put a premium on agility rather than civility. Each year our manners become cruder as our gasoline becomes more refined. Wide roads won't prevent accidents, so long as they continue to fill up with narrow people. Good brakes on cars are no protection against bad breaks in behavior. The growing pro- blem of automobile fatalities will not be solved around the drafting board but around the family table, Then we can have a monster under the hood, because there will be a gentleman at the wheel.
