The reader of a country weekly ,uys everythin}; from shingles the roof to cement in the cellar floor ,-ery advertiser hux in him i possible customer. What is the matter with our fhil iren? Not much, but a ifreat deal S the matter with some parents. The police are hunting for a little :irl, ten years old, invited to go to party by a plausible man, fifty rieht years old. The child did not kiw the man, the parents did not iow him. But the parents said, ertainly.” Off she went in nranger's oar, and that's the last seen of her.

The fliers have beaten all trnis, including Lindbergh's long distance flight over water. It is 5.538 miles of ocuun from Oakland, California, to Suva, Fiji Islands, via Hawaii, The 250 Fiji Islands, about eighty of them inhabited, belong to old grandmother Britannia. She rarely overlooks anything When .young people that now read this column get their arour.d- the-world flying machines they may find chances to grow up with the cuontry on some of those unin habited, unexplored Fiji Islands. Crops in the corn belt have taken an upward turn. The Arkansas River Valley report* ‘Whuut will make thirty-fife bushels to acre.” All that is cheerful for the Re publican candidate. Nothing melts irritation on the farms like good rains, good crops, good prices. George Bernard Shaw, becoming lesy important and less accurate after seventy, declures that accumu lated money is the root of all evil. Without accumulated money Nia gara Falls wouldn’t be harnessed, the Panama Canal, which helps Britain as much as it does us, wouldn’t be dug; automobile production wouldn’t be on a quantity basis and this country wuold have, perhaps, 240,000,000 in expensive automobiles. Great accumulations of capital, like great accumulations of water going down hill, represent power. Eliminate accumulated capital, and you would eliminate possibilities of higher civilization. If the people haven’t brains enough to watch and control accumulated capital they wouldn’t have enough to control small capital. PURE CARELESSNESS CAUSES ‘ MOST ACCIDENTS Ninety per cent of all industrial, ] home, street and highway accidents are from trivial causes. “Major violations of the law and spectacular acts of criminal negli gence produce but u small fraction of the total number of deaths and injuries that occur annually,” de clared Marcus A. Dow, eminent safety engineer. ‘‘Boards left lying on factory floor* with nails sticking up in them cause more serious injuries than boiler explosions. In private homes more people are killed and seriously hurt by falling down stairs than killed and injuried in fires. “The majority of street accidents FOR SALE—Wtan'i Millinery Rsady-to-wrar Store.

Women's Saif Sar- vica Store 38S, 3rd Street seat dear ta Laaaras Jawelery Micaa, Ga. are caused by little acts of thoqght- lessnciw, rather than by drunkenness or other violations of the law in driv ing automobiles.” A careful analysis of street and highway accidents shows that about 16 per cent urc caused by backing up carelessly to get out of parking spaces. Failure to get under prop er control when approaching street intersections causes another 15 per cent Following too close behind a vehicle to allow proper braking dis tance .accounts for 12 per cent of cidents. Improper signaling causes 10 per cent, and skidding eight per cent. Miscellaneous small act* neglect cause 30 per cent, while drunkenness and other violations of the law cause only 10 per cent of cidents.—Exchange.
