I SAFHYY OF THE STREETS.

f'* A Tribune reader In commenting on 1 the editorial, "Auto Aocidents," In Tuesday's paper suggests that an or distance be passed "which "would require that every person who sells an automobile he compelled to Instruct the purchaser until he is able to operate the machine properly.

Whether all the responsibility should be placed on the dealers is open to question. There is no question, however, about the necessity for a law covering the object discussed. Such a law ought to be enacted. Added to it should be a section keeping those learning to drive from using streets anywhere within the congested section as a practice ground. When enacted the law should be enforced to the letter and without partiality. For such a statute, if properly enforced, would do much to lessen the Increasing dangers of city traffic.

The biggest menace to life and limb in the city streets or, for that matter, on the country thoroughfares is an Inexperienced man at the wheel of an automobile. The lnepcperienced driver is not only a danger to himself, but also to other automobilists, as well as pedestrians. To the inexperience of persons at the wheels of automobiles is due an increasing number of accidents.

In the city of Washington, for ex***"ample, no one is permitted to drUve an automobile without a driver's license.

These licenses can only be secured after the applicant has passed an examination demonstrating a knowledge of traffic regulations as well as ability to handle a motor car. The result of these regulations has been a greatly decreased- accident list.

THE LAND OF PLENTY.

Commission men are said to be dumping the peach crop on the garbage pile for the reason that peaches are so plentiful throughout the country that they cannot get a price for them that will Justify the freight charges. i. Wheat and oats by no means comprise all of America's good fortune in the line of crops. Apples have not been so plentiful and so perfect in quality before in years. The Vegetable kingdom. too, ha? given liberally of Its bounty.

But peaches are the particular food blessing of the season. They fairly overrun the market. A farmer with a peach orchard has no cause for chestiness, for his fruit brings a low price quite probably, he permits many bushels to rot on the ground rather than perform the profitless task of bringing them to market.

So acute, indeed, has the peach situation become that the department of agriculture In a special bulletin calls attention to it. This season's crop is estimated at nearly 6,600,000 bushels above that of last year. Housewives are urged to make as generous a use of peaches as they can, using them for Immediate needs and preserving for winter as many more as possible. Mer-

chantr, are urged to move as many as they ran. The suggestion is timely and may prove valuable. Generous Inroads on the peach crop should be made, not for the benefit of orchardists or merchants, certainly, but for the benefit of the consumer, who has few enough such lifts in his cost of living burden.

PEACE A MEMORY.

Announcement is made that at St. Benedict's church tomorrow services will be held invoking Providence for peace. The announcement brings strange reflections. From a tiny paper published in Palestine by a Swiss missionary, whose press room has been a donkey cart and whose office equipment has decked a camel's back, it Is learned that the holy land is now a training camp and a place of military evolutions.

The sky above Bethlehem, where the low-hanging star marked the coming of the Prince of Peace, is blurred here and there by swift-flying airships. The rising slopes of the Mount of Olives are drill grounds for Turkish soldiery, and the dark-faced fighting men tramp through Jerusalem and bivouac on GOIT gotha. On the road that leads down from Jericho into Judea busy picks and shovels in Bwarthy hands are at work A road Is being constructed and where the tinkling bells of the mule train faintly wake the sullen echoes, the siren blast and rumbling roar of armpred motor cars soon will be heard.

Across the rolling plains, lines of buffalo carts, guided by Arab peasants, are drawing munitions for the Turkish armies. Brown tents, like evil mushrooms, have sprung up along the pilgrim trails and dispatch bearers on swift dromedaries of the camel corps, hurry on through clouds of yellow dust

The most sacred spot on earthmeasured by the reverence of countless multitudes of civilized men, is trampled by careless feet and scarred by ruthless battery wheels, and where the deathless tiding of great Joy "Peace on earth, good will to men," rang forth, is now an armed camp.

If these untoward conditions in the Christian year of 1915 were foretold by St Paul, or the prophets, no one has called attention to the fact.

HOLDING BACK.

The great mass of people in England seem to make war service a matter of personal choice. The morning dispatches declare that Premier Asquith has added his voice to the warning of Kitchener and Lloyd George in advocating conscription as a, last resource for thq preservation of the empire. Asquith and Kitchener kre definitely looking forward to the time when Great Britain will be compelled to adopt methods similar to those which all her allies and her enemies haive found necessary.

Meanwhile a strange condition is developing, not only in Great Britain, but also in other parts of the imperial domains. The more generous the response to the call for volunteers the less pressing becomes the need of conscription, yet the popular sentiment favorable to conscription steadily Increases. As more and more families send their young men to the war there is a more and more consistent demand that the other young men who are safely and snugly at home go forth and bear their share of the burden. The mother whose son is in the trenches looks with undisguised dislike on the young man next door who still fills his position as bank clerk and who eats three meals a day off a white tablecloth. The larger the number of mothers whose sons have volunteered the more general becomes the feeling that all should participate in bearing the nation's burden. This sentiment undoubtedly tends to Increase recruiting, but this Is not enough. The British sense of fair play demands that all share alike.

There is still, of course, a widespread feeling against compulsory military service. It is held to be un-Britlsh, and radical organizations loudly oppose It.

An alleged arson trust has been unearthed in St. Louis. Happily, nobody attempts to connect it with any propaganda, it being understood that the trust merely wanted the money.

A Brazil girl fell out of a secondstory window and landed on a basket of peaches. The peaches were considerably bruised, but the peach escaped without Injury.

Sunday, September 19, 1915.

Astrologers read this as an exceedingly unfavorable day. Neptune, Jupiter, the sun and Uranus are all adverse.

It is a difficult time for those who desire to awaken the better aspirations, and ministers may find conditions discouraging, especially if they present any plans for new activities.

The sway is a forbidding one for all who desire to enlist aid in any charitable venture.

Neptune Is in a place held^to encouragre fraud and deception. Warning is given against secret machinations that may cause national disaster.

This is a forbidding configuration for whatever concerns shipping. The loss of a United States warship is prognosticated.

As this rule is believed to cause a desire for luxury and to encourage extravagance, women are cautioned against self-indulgence.

Today is not an auspicious time for lovers. Marriages and engagements are badly directed.

Amusements of the less ambitious sort are under a direction indicating a national demand for recreation.

The death of a famous scientist is presaged by the stars. He will be engaged in a distinguished public service when he meets his end.

Persons whose birthdate it is should guard their conduct. Business affairs will require strict attention. Travel and change will be unlucky.

CITY COURT HANDLES VARIETY OF CASES SCHOOL HEAT CONTRACT

MRS. STIMSON FIGHTS

Clashes

With

Trustee Greenleaf

When He Supported New Scale— Night

Schools Reopened,

A wordy setto between School Trustees Mrs. S. C. Stimson and George W. Greenleaf, over a leave of absence which evidently had been overlooked during the two-and-one-half hour caucus in which the board members Indulged Friday night, was the only enlivening occurrence during the half hour public meeting following the caucus.

The clash began when Mrs. Stimson voted against signing a heating contract for the library and gTeenhouse. The price of heating as fixed by the contract amounted to $959 for the library and greenhouse. Ac6ording to the report of Librarian Hughes, the price for heating the library is 5144 more than last year and Mrs. stimson designated It as a "hold up*' and voted against it. Greenleaf seemed somewhat surprised and when Mrs. Stimson a short time after asked how long a leave of absence Miss Adamson, librarian at Montrose, wished, Greenleaf said, "until the heating contract expires," to which Mrs. Stimson said. "No, this happens to be at your school, the Montrose school, where you want to pay so much for one little corner."

Reopen Night Schools.

Owing to the popularity of tne night schools last year the trustees voted to reopen them October 4. The same subjects will be taught as last year.

The board, following a request from residents of the southeast part of the city regarding vocational training facilities, ordered the superintendent of publio schools and the head of the vocational department to make arrangements to take care of the colored boys of this quarter at the Booker Washington school.

Four new Instructors for the vocational training school in the building formerly occupied by the Temple laundry at Seventh street and Lafayette avenue, were appointed. They are E. W. Feree, formerly of Rose Poly shops, Prof. C. C. Knipmeyer and Prof. O. Stock of the Rose Poly, electrical and free hand drawing, and James H. Boyer, instructor in mathematics.

The board ordered the business director to draw a warrant for the purchase of the building and lot adjoining at the corner of the Montrose school. The price Is $4,816.

Teachers Transferred. ,,

Guy Stantz, Instructor in manual training at Garfield high sohool, was transferred to Wiley while Herbert Meyer, Instructor In manual training at Harrison school was sent to Garfield and Bryon Fisher will take Mr. Meyer's place.

At the recommendation of Mrs. Hughes, several orders of books, both fiction and non-fiction, were purchased, and arrangements were made to enlarge the library facilities at the Fairview school and make the school a three day branch instead of one day a week.

The board also ordered the library room at the Albert Lange school changed to the sewing room and shelves made to accommodate the books. According to the librarian, formerly the children in the main building had to go down the front stairs to get to the library, wnile this way the children In the main building may reach the library without leaving the building.

Contractors Disputes.

The arbitration committee appointed to settle the dispute between the board and Robert E. Meyer, contractor for the addition to the Lange school, and N. C. Klntz, for the Booker Washington school, was ordered to report at the next meeting.

Miss Ruth Adamson, librarian at tne Montrose school, was granted a leave of absence for the winter and will attend the Carnegie school of librarians at Pittsburgh, Pa. Mrs. Frank Coleman was appointed janitress at the Wiley hl«h school. William Forshee, chauffeur appointed by the school city, was discharged for infraction of the rules. Mrs. Stimson stood out for Forshee. ..
