Playing Safe The awful chances which Americans take in jeopardizing their lives appal the European visitor and observer. It seems to be one of our characteristics to "take a chance." One frightful accident follows another in quick succession, but the lesson of caution and care which the fatalities should teach remains unlearned. The heavy toll of lives which was taken in New York last Sunday , might have been pre

vented, press dispatches say,' if the thousands of people on the Atlantic coast had heeded the warnings the weather bureau issued 48 hours

before the storm broke. ' For two days the oppressively hot weather had warned the people of a break in the temperature. The weather bureau had warned the public of thunder showers and atmospheric disturbances. Despite the warning,' thousands of persons pushed out from the shore in small boats and risked their lives in their, desire for pleasure. ' It was our habit of "taking a chance", that was responsible for the deaths that resulted, and the chances are ten to one that the warning of last Sunday will be no preventive next Sunday or in the days to come. . . . " , ,:'' Our thoughtlessness manifests itself in the reckless driving of automobiles, in carelessness in crossing streets, in' dashing across railroad tracks without stopping to look, and in scores of other ways that combined give us the lead in the world in the number, of casualties of all kinds. ..:

City Insurance . .. .. "Charles H. Cheney, city planning director for several Pacific coast cities, tells Chicagoans that continual trouble will be the result if zoning regulations are not established here,' says the Chicago Tribune. "That is so evident as to leave hardly an excuse for argument. A walk through

any section of the city where new building operations are very active wall convince the most skeptical. "Within the radius of one block in one section of the north side, for instance, three modern residences have been moved away within a month to make room for business and apartment houses, while a fourth is being remodeled for offices. While that does not necessarily mean loss of money to the owners of those homes, as they probably made a profit on the lots, it does mean an economic waste. And if, instead of an apartment house, the building to go up next door were a garage or a machine shop, the loss to adjacent property owners would be severe. "It is to eliminate such dangers that a zoning ordinance is required. Zoning is city insurance.

It gives stability to property values. Under such

regulation a home owner who buys or builds a3 an investment, not as a speculation, is insured against depreciation of the value of his property because of the encroachment of undesirable neighbors. A factory owner is insured against the trouble and expense of neighborhood opposition to the putting in of switch tracks, special sewers for trade wastes, etc. An apartment owner , is , insured against the possibility of a garage becoming a nuisance which will disturb his tenants and lower the value of his property. "Such an ordinance is now being prepared for Chicago. It is likely to meet with opposition, as all constructive legislation' is likely to meet with opposition. The Tribune does not know whether its provisions will be adequate and entirely just or not, but we do know that zoning regulations are essential to the economic and efficient construction and maintenance of a modern city, and the public should inform itself on the subject and be prepared to support a measure which will provide such city insurance."

CONFESSIONS OF A CYNIC t I believe vacations are great. things. It always seems so good to get back home', I believe that most of the old frumps who spend their time knocking young women of today do so from a spirit of jealousy. I don't know how . some of the screen "6tars" manage to put it over, and I don't suppose I will ever find out: r I think it was very catty of a certain ex-actress to tell the world that Marv Pickford was a , fellow patient of hers at a face-stretching beauty hospital. : - I have no hesitancy in saying that . Bull Montana ia my favorite male celluloid actor. He looks like a regular man.

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" WHISTLES. -; ; . The fellow who knows how to whistle and whistles Is a benefactor to mankind. Whistle. Just pucker up your lips and whistle. Any tune will do, or no tune at all. Just whistle. Whistle the-poison out of your soul. Whistle the anger' and bitterness from yo'ur heart- Whistle hope. Whistle cheer. Whistle ideals about you. Whistle. r Did you ever hear an unhappy man whistle? Did you ever hear an angry, man whistle? Did you ever hear a discouraged man whistle? You never did, because unhappiness and anger and discouragement and all other unpleasant and ugly things blow right out with the first breath of a genuine whistle. . ' So bo game, and whistle. When you feel failure in your bones whistle. At the moment you start to scold whistle. Before you begin, to burden anyone with' your troubles whistle. Keep your whistle moist and ready all the while. Whistle for whistling is contagious. As soon as your whistle starts, the other fellow's is apt to begin. Whistle with your lips and whistle with your heart. Whistle out, and whistle up. But whistle, whistle, whistle. For whistling makes the difficult things easier, and the big things- possible, it makes folks happier and the world run smoother Whistle 1

Who's Who in the Day's News

Way down in the Arkansas hills some odd 50 years ago a youngster was born. When he was six months old his father was shot in a feud leav-

his( mother a widow 'with three other children and $25. At seven this lad was working 10 or 12 hours a day. as a farm band. Then he deserted the plow for the pickaxe of a section hand. He had brawn, muscle and ambition and the latter

prompted him to study long and hard after his tire

some day on the section. Eventually he completed a law course and put tip a shingle in Jonesboro, Ark. Now he's known as "T. H. Caraway, Democrat of Jonesboro." That's his autobiography, the shortest in the congressional directory for he's now Arkansas' junior senator. As United. States senator he is now wielding a sturdy pick on the policies and actions of Attorney General Daugherty. He's Daugherty'a chief critic.

After Dinner Tricks

N'o. 204 Ring Taken From String Thread a ring on a double loop of string and place the loops over a spectator s forefingers. The trick is to remove the ring without taking the loop from the forefingers. To do the trick, gather up a loop from one of the strings (Fig. 1) and place It over the opposite forefinger of the spectator (Fig. 2) and below the loop originally there. Then remove the original loop..- The ring will come quite free of the string, which still remains looped on the fingers. If th movements are done rapidly they will not be detected. By reversing the process, the ring can again be threaded on the string. Copyrtcht, !2t, by Public Ledger Company

We find you can bring out the beauty of your hair to its very best advantage by washing it with canthrox. It makes a very , simple, inexpensive shampoo which cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly of all the dandruff, dirt and excess oil, leaving a wonderfully clean, wholesome feeling. After its use, you will find that the hair dries quickly and evenly, is never streaked in appearance and is always bright, soft and fluffy; so fluffy, in fact, that it looks more abundant than it is, and so soft that arranging it becomes a pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful of canthrox, which you can get from any good druggist, dissolve it in a cup of hot water; this makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so, it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head.
