The editorial says: Every Sunday a hundred motorists are arrested for speeding by motorcycle policemen in suburban villages. The policemen lie in wait on side roads, or in clumps of brushes, and dart out from time to time to make aprests. Once he has made an arrest, the policeman returns to his hiding place to wait for another opportunity. > THURSDAY, JUNE 10, 1926 As big game hunting, these tactics rate high. As a _ 1 means of preventing speeding, they are not so good. Moâ€" _ torists will not speed when a policeman is in sight. One _ motorcycle policeman in plain view is worth a dozen in hidâ€" ing, if the safety of the roads, rather than the collection of _ _ fines, is the end in view. In too many instances, it is true, policemen seem, to have the notion that their efficiency depends on the number of arrests they can make; this is wholly the wrong attitude toward their job. To prevent law violation rather than to collect fines for infractions is the province of the patrolman in most instances, and especially of the motor cop. Fortunately this is realized by the Highland Park police and motorists find no "speed traps" when passing through this city. s > e Some months ago there was held a Peace Conference of ‘Naâ€" tions at the little city of Locarno, in Switzerland, where unofficialâ€" ly the United States participated to reach an agreement that, beâ€" fore taking any steps to war over boundary or territorial disputes, international arbitration should be employed. More recently, the success of the Locarno Peace Conference was celebrated in a great religious festival, at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, New York, at which officers marched up to the central aisle carrying the flags of eight great nations. Accomâ€" panyg(rjlg these standard bearers, the diplomats of each nation apâ€" peared. + There were the flags of Germany, France, Great Britain, Belâ€" gium, Poland, Italy, Czechoslovakia, and.the American fAag. It was probably the first time since the war that these flags have been carried together or that a German flag has been seen in an Ameriâ€" can church. Later on in the service, while the "Te Deum" was being sung, the standard bearers marched up to the high altar, and stood with the flags held aloftâ€"the French and German interâ€" mingling. It was fitting and proper to observe the event in the cathedral, because that conference was a triumph of the spirit of brotherliâ€" ness and good will over the spirit of distrust and fear and hatred. It marks the highest step yet reached in the bringing in of peace and fellowship among the nations, and greater far than its specific agreements, is the moral effect of that conference on Euâ€" rope and upon the world. . The United States of America is a visible demonstration that 48 separate and distinct local governments, handling local probâ€" lems and local conditions, can function successfully under one strong guiding hand, on matters pertaining to the national or inâ€" ternational welfare of the 48 separate units. | Hatred, jealousy, envy, greed or the desire to acquire territory from a neighboring state, does not exist in the United States. The American people play politics through their different parties and they play it hard, but when their interests clash, they have learned to leave the settlement of their difficulties to their courts or to their federal government. As our nation has successfully solved the problem of combining 49 separate and distinct state governments under one national head, in handling affairs for the wellâ€"being of the nation collectiveâ€" ly, why will it not be possible ultimately for European nations to pattern after our example? The problem of harmonizing the afâ€" fairs of many different races is more complicated, but basically the problem is no different than was the harmonizing of many quesâ€" tions pertaining to states‘ rights, under our own central form of government. Our own 48 separate states, the provinces of Canada and the central governments of Canada and the United States live side by side, and no thought of war or conquest, jealousy or hatred exists between people of these nations or their separate states. . ‘FEurope and the rest of the world have an example to pattern after, if they so desire. The fact that their problems are more intricate and difficult at the present time, should make them more determined than ever to group themselves under some central or controlling organization with the power to harmonize and settle local grievances as they arise, just as do the local and central govâ€" ernments of their neghbors in America. How intelligent should a business man be? It may be a new thought and yet it must be obvious that intelligence, according to the ordinary understanding of the world, is not everything. : In a famous intelligence test given to a large group of successâ€" ful business men, two or three of the lowest scores were made by presidents of their concerns. However, even these were fully equal to the average of American intelligence, suggesting that at least this minimum of metality is needed for success in business, says the Nation‘s Business Magazine. _ In this connection, Dr. W. V. Bingham, director of the National Federation of Personal Reâ€" search, raised the question of the relative importance of intelliâ€" gence and of nonâ€"intellectual traits as factors in business achieveâ€" ment. He asks whether beyond a certain point brains count more than character and personality. "University teachers," he says, "are prone to magnify the imâ€" portance of intelligence. It is, indeed, liket' to be the chief factor in their own success. They tend to estimate the effectiveness of their colleagues in terms of intellectual accomplishment. They rank their students in order of ability to master and manipulate ideas. "In the world of business, on the other hand, success is first of all a matter of getting things done. Ability to persugde and conâ€" trol people is an outstanding asset. Effectiveness within an orâ€" ganization demands such traits as dependability, coâ€"operativeness, energy, promptness of decision. If traits like these agre present in high degree, a man may make a notable business success even though his mental alertness test rating on the army scale is only B or C. Intelligence there must be, above a certain minimum. But this minimum is, perhaps, not so high as is often supposed." _ Published weekly by The Udell Printing Co. at Highland Park, No WeT oc No â€" TRIUMPH OF UNDERSTANDING sn rnmuennast on ergenruet icow P 2CA CAN LEARN FROM U.

For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker. For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand" (Psalms 95:1, 3, 6, 4). The Lessonâ€"Sermon also included the following passage from the Chrisâ€" tian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "God is indiâ€" vidual, incorporated.
