Tall Corn and Hedges Make Of Every Blind Corner Veritable Death Trap. Appealing: to automobile drivers to "use the common sense they are supposed to have been born with," and declaring that the wave of "too much rpeed" is causing a. dreadful toll of death and injury in every section of Indiana, officials of the Lake. County Branch of the Hoasler State Automo-, biie Association have issued a Jlace-; cionian cry for relief. j "YVhat's your hurry?"' is the sentiment expressed by the automobile association. "Why not be sensible and be safe?" la aiso asked, and it is declared it is hoped that every driver in Indiana will take these Queries right Iiome to himself. "The hazards in the country, now that automobile touring is heavy, axe virtually as great as traffic hazards in the cities," declared Dick Schaaf of Gary, director of the Hoosier State Automobile Association for the Tenth district in a statement. M AX Y COKNEK DEATH TRAPS Tall corn may indicate a bumper crop for the farmers, but the same tall corn also means a b'imper of automobile accidents In every section of the state continued Mr. Schaaf. "Not only torn, but hedge fences, trees, weed and f jliage of all kinds now obstruct the country road intersections. ,'Uvery 'blind" corner in the country is a rotential death trap for automobile drivers. "We wish to appeal to the eenso of reason that musrt exist somewhere in the craniums of auto drivers. In short, our appeal Is simply to drive v. ith sense, nnd that means the driving will be done with safety. How any driver can go sallirur down the coun

try highway and into a blind corner

without reducing bis speed, knowin

as he must know that some other driver is apt to pop out on him at the Intersection, is beyond conception. And yet. we would feel free in offering a prize of a fur-lined safety razor or something for the first perron ever discovered in the act of using common tense and slowiag' down In such instances to a control speed. SLOW DOWX AT ALL COR.VER8 "Driving in cities, even the smaller co-jntry towns, is becoming more and more hazardous1 because automobiles ere in such general use everywhere !n Indiana. It has come to the point r.ow where it is only the exercise of yood common sense for a driver in any city to slow down at every street enrrer. There can be no sense in any driver continuing on through a city etreet Intersection, no matter what the o-ca!!ed right of way rule may be.

WAITING FOR RESULT OF DEVALERA - LLOYD GEORGE MEETING

"In short, there is always and continually toi mich ppeed at critical

t imps'. Speed in straightaways on touring may be all right. Reasonable spued between corners in cities may be ail right and usually loads to no accidents. But what we are crying against in the senseless" idea of never slowing up for anything that a majority of the drivers nowadays seem to be l:nb.ied with. ARlil.LhS.VF.SS IS CRIHI.VAL "The new rule if the road in tfc country district and finallor cities is .that the driver approaching on tiie right of you iias the right-of-way. Whether the right of way law is working in the country districts remains to be seen, but no matter what a right of way law is. the driver who doesn't slow down at a blind corner 1 sa potential criminal in his carelessness. "The Hoosier State Automobile Association is virtually a chvic organization and is constantly working for the welfare and safety of all mo'.oris's whether they are inemb.-rs of the association or not. We are having requests for hundreds and even thousands of danger signs to be erected at bad crossings, in cities, towns and even in the rural districts. If motorists throughout the etate would show their appreciation of our work by joining us in more liberal num bers it might be possible for us to comply with all the.se. demands on our treas ury. We. want to know that our work is financed solely by our membership fees. We are working all the time, right now, for a larger percentage of automobile owners to affiliate with us. We have branches now in South Bend. Fort Wayne.. Lafayette. Richmond. Muncie. Evansville, and in ad

dition to the Lake county branch, which we are now developing we will in a few days open a branch at Kokorno. All these branches In addition to our main headquarters at Indianapolis have special service to offer our menrbers such as, free town gasoline delivery, first aid mechanical and leg

al service. Wo have membership or motor clubs in all counties. "We wish therefore to Insist that motorists do two things: Drive with sense and safety. "2. Affliate .vnth the Hoosier State Auto association which is constantly working for the protection and benefit of the motoring public. "The first item, as noted above. Is highly important if the harvest of automobile death and destruction is to be minimized in Indiana. If drivers will Just remember that they can never depend on the other fellow and will apply the drive with sense rule to themselves all the time, the undertakers may get a chance to take a well-earned and needed vacation.

The late.-t effort of that kind, according to the lady's own husband, is the forcible taking away of her own child on the part of Mrs. Charlotte Catherine Mayo. Roy Alfred Mayo, the husband in question, who is a prosperous broker in town,

I says that he has made no violent ef

fort to regain the custody or. me child; but he scoffs at the th-r-rilling story that Mrs. Mayo and the baby were chased by five kidnapers in a marby town as the results of his efforts to take the child. "The whole thing is," he explains. "that Mrs. Mayo wants to get into moving pictures. The dramatic-looking pictures taken of her and the child recently shows her plans for publicity."

of City Farms, Lots and Houses

BY LUCY JEANXE PRICE. XEW YORK. July 30. Out to the

wilds of the Western hemisphere for big game shooting have come our two latest royal visitors, from the Orient. They are two Egyptian princes, cousins of His Highness Sultan Fouad. the reigning potentate at Cairo, Prince Youssef Kamal and Prince Haidar Fazil, who have just landed th other day from England. They are on their way to hunt in the Rocky Mountains and later will go to Vancouver to sail for Japan. The investigation of the New York city administration by a state legislative commitee is turning up some interesting information about our city even if it doesn't accomplish anything else. The Investigation is, in theory, at least .being carried on with the idea of finding out what Is best to do. about a new city charter, and New Yorkers are learning things abbut the charter they are now living under than they have ever dreamed before. For instance; this charter, which dates back to 1686, provides that the Mayor of the city shall have privileges to fish and hunt anywhere in the city, regardless of regulations

limiting activities to ordinary citizens. He has the "royalties of fishing, fowling, hunting, hawking, minerals and other royalties and privileges, gold and silver mines excepted." t charter also grants the ferry rights

to an neighboring islands, for "hvo shillings, to be paid upon the Feast

of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist." So Manhattan is now awaiting the sight of Mayor Hylan starting forth for Central Park with a ftiton on his wrist, but it doesn't think it

will encourage an action i:i regard to

the five shillings. Charter investigations cott too much to be spoken of in five shillings terms.

Anyone who has an idea that New 1 York is an exlravagance-madi city' even in times when thrift migh; well be cultivated by the country at luge is as emphatically mistaken as ar. those who cherish various other scornful theories about this hardworking metropolis. There is undoubtedly as large a percentage of home-keepers here who do their own marketing, for instance, as theie is in Gopher Prairie. Sometime. I think it's larger, remembering my own Gopher Prairie days. Women of d . -cided wealth not only make the rounds of the market piaces themselves for the supplying of their tables, but more than that within tho last few months, they have started making their purchases "in bulk" rather th.ui in prettily done up boxes and carton.; of all sorts of decorativeness. ' i don't know what is happening." ono grocer said the other day as he lal:l out my sugar. "Not long ago. everybody bought this package stuff; the prettier the packages were, the more they'd pay. Now they're going thother way. They've waked up, I guess, to the fact that a pound of crackers out of a good old-time barrel i. worth more than a quarter of a pound in a shiny paper-covered pasteboard box. I'll tell you what's the matter this city's getting thrifty." The poor movies! As a matter of fact, the time Is pretty well past when a front page sensation in the newspapers serves to place an "actress" la
