All rigrhts of republication of special dispatches herein are also reserved. Automobiles in Indiana .Those who believed that the high mark in automobile ownership had been reached in Indiana will find their calculations wrong in the light of a recent report of H. D. McClelland, manager of the license department of the secretary of state's office. In the first six months of this year his department issued 370,979 pleasure car licenses and 48,669 motor truck plates, an increase over last year for either type of motor vehicle. The increase of motor trucks is best revealed ,by a comparison of the 41,609 plates issued last year with the 48,669 issued so far in 1922. The number of licenses for pleasure cars exceeds last year's total by more than 22,000. The revenue derived from the licenses amount to $2,741,738, his report shows.

These figures disclose the general prosperity of the state, and moreover demonstrate the

healthy condition of the motor industry in Indiana and elsewhere. Local dealers have shared in the increased use of cars this year. All report a gratifying demand for automobiles that bears out their pre

diction of a few months ago that buyers would

be begging for cars this season.

The automobile business ranks next to the steel industry in importance in this country. In

automobile exports our country leads the world. No foreign competition has been able to undermine the favor with which drivers of other countries look upon an American-made automobile. Another phase of McClelland's report that will be read with interest is his statement that the certificate of title law, which last year netted the state road fund more than 1,000,000, has brought already this year a gross profit of $353,549. "The decrease in revenue," he said, "is due to the fact that it is not necessary for owners of an automobile to obtain a new certificate of title unless they no longer have the machine on which the original certificate was issued." The automobile industry has established itself on a stable footing. The vehicle is gaining in popularity daily and has been accepted, as the most adaptable form of locomotive for business and pleasure purposes. The rapidity of its development has been a most powerful influence in the creation of substantial roads everywhere. Communities that have neglected road making are shunned by motorists.

AN AVERAGE, EVEN TEMPER

highly of tempers or else

He

The Creator must have thought

wouldn't have given us each one. I have often wondered what a human being would be like with no temper at all. I am inclined to think that he would be a rather 'tame affair. A man might as well lack all spirit! The trouble lirs, I believe, in the neglect that our tempers have been given. We educate our minds and teach our hands to do our bidding, and train our voices but our tempers we quite overlook." That's why they spring up so quickly and in such wild style. Occasionally, however, you meet the strongly controlled, even temper. And it is a fine spectacle indeed. How many unkind things have been spoken during the reign of a quick temper. And how we would like to have blotted out forever such words so full of hidden poison. The control and uses of a temper should be part of the training rf every child, and we grown folks should compel our tempers to become servants and not masters. There are plenty of times when a good temper comes in handy but there never comes a time when it should be lost, and allowed free run. An average, even temper what an asset! The natural thing for us to do when a temper belonging to someone else comes at us like a rushing, mad animal, is to go after it in kind but the biggest man, and the wisest, will take his stand and let the storm blow by. It is surprising how soon a -temper cools or runs away in the face of strong control. Under the glass of one of my desks is this motto: "The- dog tarks, but the caravan passes on."

GLOVES OF BOXERS LEADS TO ARRESTS o By JOHN O'BRIEN (United Press Staff Correspondent) PARIS, July 17. When Inspector Balaguerie, of the Paris central office squad, who was watching a boxing bout in the cellar of a Montmarte saloon the other night, noticed the kind of gloves the fighters were using he put two and two together rapidly and before the night -was over two much-sought-for burglars and a 'fence' were behind the bars. Balaguerie, who won the Legion of Honor ribbon on the battlefield, Is an Inveterate habitue of the ring. He was invited to a match between Charles Monin and Paul Flrmlnleux. waiters by profession, boxers la the making perhaps and, as it turned out, devoting their leisure moments to other more lucrative but less legitimate occupations. Monin went to the mat and took the count in the third round. He was in pretty bad shape and Balaguerie went into the ring to see is he might not be of service. Getting close to the fighter, he observed that the gloves on his hands were the rubber kind used by burglars to prevent finger prints being left on the furniture.

Judicious questioning of Monin and

Firminleux led to confessions that they were the authors of dozens of mysterious robberies of saloons, cigar stores, jewelry stores and so on, be

After Dinner Stories "Thomas Hardy," said an English lecturer, "is a serious enough individual today, but there was a time in London when he was the gayest of the gay. "At a Bohemian club one evening Hardy rang up one after another 30 or 40 of the most distinguished people in town dukes, bishops, actor-managers, society queens, stage beauties, and so on. He told all these people to call up '625 Chiswick' at once. " 'You are wanted there badly,' he explained to them, and the celebrities all thanked him hurriedly and rang off. "Well, when Hardy got through his

teleproning we looked up 6.o Chis
