CARE OF PAINT IS IMPORTANT. That secorndâ€"hand look which is characteristic of a large number of i automobiles is a large factor entering! into the value of a used car. The] present situation tends to give these, used cars a small»r selling price than should obtain. ‘ There are three classes of people who have a share in this condition of affairs. They are the manufacturers who put on the paint and varnish in the first place, the concerns which muake these covering products and the owners of automebiles. Most of the blame, however, can be: laid at the door of the owners. Manuâ€" facturers of cars, as a rule, deliver automobiles that are well painted and varnished. Makers of paint and varâ€" nish who sell these auto manufacturâ€" ers in general deliver high qualicy in such products. The best car manuâ€" facturers will accent nothing else. But ers in general deliver high qualicy in such products. The best car manuâ€" facturers will accept nothing else. But the owners of these machines do not, as a rule, take proper care of their cars once they eome inio their posâ€" session.

And I wondered whether civilization had rightly worked out the problem of crime. What is crime? The penal law says it is "an act or omission forbidden by law." But all acts and omissions listed in the statutes as crimes have not always been forbidden by law. A crime toâ€"day, in many instances, was a lawful act yesterday, and some doeds that were criminal yesterday are lawful toâ€"day.

Soâ€"called Greater London conâ€" tains nearly eight millions of inhabitâ€" ants, and is spreading steadily in every direction. The administrative county, called the County of London, contains 117 square miles and about 650,000 houses sheltering five millions of people. _ It has 2,200 miles of streets, 329 railway stations, 144 loyal governing bodies, and it costs $130,000,000 to administer. While the size of administrative Lonâ€" don is definitely fixed, Greater London extends constantly.

Bootlegging, under the statâ€" ute, is a crime, but it is not a crime as the great majority of the individâ€" nals in society look at it. Everybody who wants whisky gets it â€"the comâ€" mon citizen, the legislator, the execuâ€" tive, the lawyer, the clergyman, the judge. It is about as easy to get a pint of whisky as a pound of sugar. Nobody who wants whisky suffers reâ€" morse of conscience when he gets it. He is not conscious that he has comâ€" mitted any crime. Is Crime Really a Talent? Is it not so with all criminals? Citizens of the highest respectability gamble at the race track. They scoff at the law. They do not abet the commission of crime, as they view it.

Pilgrims wishing to inquire about relatives or friends who are still on the way may go into telephone call offices and talk to the neighboring towns of Jeddah, Taif and | Medina. If Mahomet‘s coffin is not to ibe seen suspended between heaven "aud earth, its place is taken by the ‘airplanes of the King of the Hedjaz, ‘and the more upâ€"toâ€"date pilgrims now | use automobiles to .visit the holy | places. Although Lord Headley long ago became a Mahometan, not until a few weeks ago was he given the opporâ€" tunity of making the pilgrimage to Mecca and of wearing the green turâ€" ban. It is said that, while a few Europeans have penetrated in disâ€" guise into Mecea, Lord Headley is the first to go openly as a pilgrim. As a matter of fact, when King Husein heard he was coming he sent down a special automobile from Mscea to Jeddah, the pilgrim port on the Red Sea.

The highâ€" waymen were petty robbers; they took by violence only a few dollars where the armed nations of Europe took peoples, palaces, and provinces. But could the nineteen culprits halp their view of things? Society disâ€" agrees with them and will not tolerâ€" ate their view, but could they change their view? The attitude of society toward crime is archaic. The treatment is alâ€" "A fixed determination to sucâ€" ceed, a persistent study, concenâ€" trated and continuous thought, coupled with fortunate cireumâ€" stances and good health will enable any one to succeed. This I have demonstrated."â€"Elbert H. Gary. Nature fashioned every child as he is, and would it not be better for society to start in the schoolhouse to deal with crime rather than to wait for the court room? Maybe the talent in the lad which leads him in after life to crime could be diâ€" rected so as to lead him to useâ€" fuiness. Perhaps some method could be invented to test the tastes and inclination of young pupils, as the ages of mental deâ€" fectives are tested. If so, then the children could be classified into groups, maybe, groups of mechanics, mathematiciias, actâ€" ors, artists, accountants, musiâ€" cians, merchants, lingnuists, hisâ€" torians, â€" engineers, . sculptors, farmers, and so on. ‘@nen each group could be instructed along the line of their natural bent and each individual trained to be what nature intended him to be.
