A NEW KIND OF SCHOOL. Tnis editor once taught a country school. He was tlien only nineteen. If he were doing it now, he -would io this also. lie would ask the school board for an acre of good gTOund plowed and ready for planting. He would ilivide the school into two classes of equal numbers and equal average age, as he used to do for the, regular Friday "speJl down." lie would take his pupils to the acre plot and lay It out into two equal pets of planting beds. He would eay to the school, "This is our experiment station. We are going to learn .something besides reading, writing, spelling, geography, arithmetic, etc. We

his manner of living seems to explain his number of years. However, longevity appears to be his only claim to distinction. It is not recorded that he is notable, in any other way. If "we live in deeds, not years, in thoughts.

YEARS LEAST OF LIFE.. Better knowlod.ee of the laws of health has Increased the average lenpth of human life duo mainly t a redaction in infant mortality and better sanitary surroundings. Ixm;; ac-o it was declared "the days of our years are three score and ten" to which was added that by reason of streneth they inisrht be fourscore. The latter would seem to have been the extreme of life in the days when the Psalms were written and we are led to believe that such a great ae was not desirable.

A sorrow of the "Wandering Jew" in the legend, lay in that those he cherished died while he was condemned to live on. This is true in a measure of those who outlive their generation and doubtless it is a wise provision of nature to make the inevitable end more welcome. While it is natural to wish to live to fulness of years, unusual age may not proe an unmixed blessing nor greatly to be desirt'd. Years are by no means the measure of usefulness nor that by which one wilf b long remembered. Bodily vigor is a valuable asset, but only es an instrument of the mind and the oul for performance of deeds, for the expression of thoughts that will survive after the body is gone. Years are the least of life.

TOOLS FOR WOMEN. Tne fk;od Housekeeping Institute received a com plaint from a woman who had had her vacuum cleaner five years. It neve worked very well, she said. The Institute asked u have "it sent in. They found that for five years the cleanm? tube had been used upside down, with the nozzle attached to the wrong end. The mystery was that it had worked at all. Another woman complained to a friend that It took her laundress just as long to iron with th hip electric ironer as by hand. The friend investigated, and found the laundress ironinp one towel at a time. Instead of feeding them all in as fast as possible without stopping

the roller, folding and sending ten folded ones through

In this day many octogenarians are quite youthful , at once, and centenarians are known, but the case of the Ken- j a set of kitchen knives formed the basis of a comtucky mountaineer who boasts of 131 years, and whose plaint to the Institute.

haps leaves a pamphlet with a picture of a model different in some respects from hers. She doesn't know what a gear is, or why the motor makes the drum in her washing machine go around. How could she? There may be danger In switching education too far from the cuitural to the practical. But before it swings back, let it be seen to that every girl in school- gets ?. little elementary knowledge of mechanics, elect licit j- and the use of tools. A NEW JOY OF AUTOMOBILE TOURS. A St. Louis judge has decided that a husband is justified in spanking his wife who ridicules him for failure to repair his automobile while on the road. By that dcree motoring for the married man opens a vista of novel and entrancing joy. The only dai-K ?mt on the horizon of the much wedded motorist was the certainty that, if the machine went wrong on tour' and he set about o repair the difficulty it would be to the accompaniment of stinging comment or ridiculous advic from his wife from her dias of comfort in the maimed touring buggy. Hut the decision of that Just and thrice-Just Missouri Jurist will bring an end to euch persecution. W"ien the good wife offers her suggestions for repairing a gas leak or adjusting the distributer, she will do so in the spirit of real helpfulness and not with that scorn that the muddled husband ought to be oiling a wheelbarrow instead of running a complicated gas engine. If instead

she reverts to ridicule and sarcasm as the old man grovels j

under the machine she may find herself face to face with the authority pranted the husband by the St. Louis Judge to administer euch punishment as fits the offense. The St. Ixwisan ruled with mich sympathy that be himself must have been plagued by the same wifely attitude .'-hown to the defendant before him. Only a husband who has experienced the scorpion sting of a wife it ease sputtering platitudes to a distressed husband struggling with a mysterious or obstreperous mishap of a motor car could rule bo wisely.

as a record. The place of his residence is evidence th.it he has lived the simple life, for in the Kentucky hills there is no other manner of living. While he doubtless breathed the pure mountain air it is more than prooaole that corn pone and fat meat stewed in grease constituted his main food, for that is the mountaineer's reliance. He admits that he drank "moonshine" whiskey, a habit that

'Through the advice of your service station we have applied a full set of Goodyear Cord Pneumatic Truck Tires, and although we have not had them long enough to give any statement as to mileage, we can say that they greatly increase our daily mileage and lessen the daily breakage of material hauled. The local service station has afforded us speedy and efficient service since these tires were applied' v Ora Hershberger, The Lion Store

THE Lion Store's truck makes deliveries of a wide variety of merchandise daily, to homes in every section of Hammond. Among the loads hauled there frequently is a considerable quantity of articles easily broken. Solid Tires were used on this truck for a considerable length of time. The jolting over uneven pavements and occasional unpaved stretches sometimes resulted in damage to merchandise hauled. The owners quite naturally desired to eliminate this breakage. They also believed that the truck should make a larger number of deliveries in a day cover a greater number of miles and deliver more packages to more homes. On our advice they equipped the truck with Goodyear Cord Pneumatic Truck Tires. Greater mileage, more deliveries, were immediately made possible and breakages

were minimized. Now the Lion Store is a confirmed user of the big Goodyear Cords. It may be that Goodyear Cord Pneumatic Truck Tires would effect a like saving for you. Or, if your problem is quite different from that of the Lion Store, it may be that Goodyear Cushion Tires or Goodyear Solid Tires will better fit your needs. x Our experts can help you decide. You can be sure that no tire will be recommended or applied to your truck that is not correct in size and type. Note that we give service "Before Application, Of Application," and systematically "After Application." Certainly you will not be content merely to read about the savings that Goodyear Truck Tires, plus Goodyear Service, are affording to others if you also can Obtain similar savings through this same combination.
