vehicles and those on foot, are in many cases to blame for grade crossing accidents, that it is a fact that many have been sent to their graves because of inadequate protection, something that persists in every community in the county. Publicity should accompany the work of the coroner's investigator. We should know more about industrial accidents, of motor disasters that take lives, of life-robbing grade grossing, niblicity and the appliance of the law to life-takers may reduce the shocking rate of violent deaths. Deaths that oecurrtd in this county in 1!16 were in a proportion that exceeded by several times the toll in such crowded metropolises as ew York or Chicago. If care is not taken and prevention applied, at least one hundred lives will be needlessly taken hero in various forms of accidents this year if we may accept the prim record of the recent past as a criterion.

BE PATIENT AND SLOW. Thrift will bo the salvation of this country the risht kind of thrift. We tre traveling- too fast. What, every man needs to learn is to properly auge his strength. Thrift is good management. It is not only a matter of savins money, hut spending it wisely, advantageously, looking ahead, being satisfied with modest things until you can afford more expensive ones. Voii can be as happy in a fifty-dollar fiat as in a flve-thonsand-doUar apartment. Some kinds of debt are desirable, helpful and necessary. Some kinds of debt are nerve-racking and costly. Buy a home on the installment plan, but don't buy an automobile that way. Take out a life insurance policy, but don't pay more than you can conrfortably pay for. Dress well, but pay your tailor; live well, but pay your grocer; don't "hang up" one to pay the other they need the money as much as you. Earn largely, spend thoughtfully, and save consistently, so that you may have something to spend wjien your earning power is less than it is today, and your needs, it may ho. are greater. Develop financial strengih as the oxen acquire strength gradually. Don't pam'ole to get rich quick, nor mortgage the future to enjoy the present. To develop the ability to draw heavy loads is a slow, steady process. It takes patience and training. While the lives of some great men remind us that we can make money by taking chances, you can lose ii the same wav. Tackle big problems, undertake, big things, but let there be first the slow, patient training that develops strength and reserve energy, just as the farmer develops the strength of his oxon iy years of patient dragging of stones in the barnyard. Tew men can make one dollar do the work of two. and you had better not try. Better get the two first, and only hitch up to the tiling you know you can drag, for it may drag you.

STARVING OUT THE EFFICIENTS. Ther. is a widespread misconception that teachers are overpaid. In both city and country the idea is prevalent and deep-rooted thai the teacher has a soft time of it and generally is In affluent circumstances. School boards are reluctant to raise teachers" salaries to meet the increased cost of living. .The general feeling is that teachers should live singly"; That they should have families dependent upon them, whether men or women, occurs to school officials as a remote possibility. It is a breach of the conventions for a teacher to have to support anyone but himself. Summer vacation is charged up against the teacher as an offset to whatever he may earn. The facts that multitudes of instructors. workovertime, when they do work, and that they are under a constant mental strain during nine months of the year, are almost completely disregarded, because they are not realized. .Hist now the higher cost of living is bitting the teacher severely, botii in school and in college. At a college alumni dinner in New York recently, this remarkable statement was made: "The university is so badly off for funds that there are instructors so poorly paid that they cannot afford three meals a day. Some have to get along with two and some actually can afford to eat only once a day. Why do they work? It's the call to teach the feel the call for personal sacrifice.'" The United States Steel Corporation has just added $20,000,000 to rs annual pay roll, increasing the wages of 250,000 employes ten per cent. Many other corporations have made similar advances to meet higher living costs. Labor, where organized, is demanding and getting higher wages. Congress and the state legislatures are investigating all sorts of economic phases save where the members of thp teaching profession are concerned. It would seem as if the intellectual welfare of coming generations was not worth considering. If we are to have efficiency in the teaching staffs of our schools and colleges we must pay for it. The way things are tending we are starving the efficients out. Country Gentleman.

THE CORONER'S INVESTIGATOR. There is something refreshing in Coroner Graham's move in creating an all-time coroner's investigator who wilt have an auto at his command to go to any part of the county where his services are required. The investigator, who can give time that no deputy was able to, should be an aid, especially to industrial establishments, where, despite safety precautions, deaths occur quite frequently. But one of the widest paths for the coroner's investigator is afforded in motor disasters. Nearly a hundred persons have lost the-ir lives during th past eighteen months here. In some cases this resulted from criminal carelessness. So far no one has been ever really punished. This was because the facilities for investigation were inadequate. Now we may expect something different. The coroner's investigator, Mr. Green, a man said to be well fitted for the place, ought to look into every death that occurs on railroad crossings. There are many death traps in this county and in not a few instances the .murderous negligence of railroad corporations is responsible for several fatalities that have occurred. Yet no one acts. Dangerous crossings that might be made safe by the removal of a few obstacles and the installation of safety bells, needed in these, days of universal motor traffic, continue to exist. No one seems to think that they should be otherwise. Were it a private individual or an industrial establishment that maintained manslaughterlngdeviceg, there would -soon be a protest. It seems that only railroads and interurban lines have the privilege of not. taking adequate steps to protect, human life. It should be remembered that while motorists, those in horse-drawn
