JW(IM by Arthur Brisbane DYNAMITE AND HAILSTONES y I FREE YOUR EMOTIONS GAMBLING NEVER PAYS PROVIDENCE PROVIDES

Lightning struck a boat carrying, dynamite, off Cockburn Island, in the St. Lawrence, killing thirty, blowing the big SIOO,OOO boat to splinters. We like to read about that. / At St. Johns, Newfoundland, win- | dows, roofs, were broken, animals killed by hailstones weighing, ten pounds each . We've heard -of hailstones as big as hens’ eggs, but not Btaui hens. That interests 1,000,interests The learned Dr. W. J. Mayo, the earth’s greatest surgeon, able to remove anything you have except your citizenship and your complexes warns you that restraining your emotions is bad for your heart. Every time your mind intereferes to check your instinctive impulses, the heart suffers. That will encourage modern young people, increasing their expectation of long life. When you suddenly jam on your four-wheel brakes, your tires suffer; so with your heart when you suddenly apply y° ur wiJI and c° ntro ‘ the emotions, which are your driving force. Captain Saul of the Southern Cross can teaufy to man’s progress in transportation. As navigator of the Southern Cross he flew the Atlantic in two days. Some years ago he made his first Atlantic crossing in a square rigged sailing vessel, and was six months on the journey. In spite of that, many still doubt that ocean air travel will ever become practical.” Children of today will ask about ••the old days when people crossed the ocean on the water,” as they now ask about stage coach days. And those now living will crosa to Europe for about $lO. Charles S. Waters, his savings gone, killed his wife, his daughter and himself. The money went in stock gambling. Gambling causes suicides, ruin, poverty, sorrow. Bootleg whiskey causes some suicides, many murders. Leave stock gambling and bootlegging alone. The kindness of Providence supplies us with things when we need them. The ravens fed Elijah. After the Napoleonic wars Europe heavily in debt, faced long poverty. Then came steam power, debts were paid, prosperity was great. Kings and nobles in steel armor enjoyed leading miserable peasants to wi*r. The latter were left dead, the nobles in their armor rode back. Then gunpowder and bullets went through the armor, nobles and kings went home, wars became leas frequent. The automobile made gigantic supplies of gasoline necessary. The country yields so much oil the oil men don’t know what to do with it. Finally in flying, clouds and fogs, out of sight of land, make necessary information in mid ocean. Ard the radio supplies it. The flyers arriving from Ireland say that without the guiding radio they could not have made the flight. As we need things we get them . Mr. Franklin D. Roosevelt says: •‘Character building begins in the cradle." Parents should train children from their babyhood. Avoid English horae trainer, asked “when should I begin training my colt," and told that the colt was three weeks old, said: “You have lost three of the most important weeks. ** Children should be trained with kindness and explanation, never with whipping or other brutality, from babyhood. But don’t waste too much time correcting and nagging concerning" the faults that the child will outgrow with time; and not otherwise. Two kinds of bad news from India. In the Madras presidency police firat a crowd of "rebels,* wounded seven. More serious from the imperial point of view, is the disastrous slump in cotton prices on the Bonbay markets. Price restrictions have been withdrawn and many of cotion merchants are expected. IVall Street wit which described a broker opening his order book, releasing several moths, now says, “Constructive forces are now in the saddle, but the saddle is not on the hoirse," That talk is pleasing to the busy bears, but saddle and horse may be together soon and bears less happy. .Ulen Hoover, son of the President, bought a set of union overalls and Jhti gone to wrk in a New Jersey plant of the American Radiator company.

BOY DROWNS WHEN BOAT TURNS OVER Tragedy Is First In Ten Years Os Camp Crosley’s Existence The first drowning accident in 10 years of its existence occurred at the Y. M. C. A. Camp Crosley on Tippecanoe lake Wednesday morning about 10:30 o'clock, when John Langley, aged 15, met his death. John Langley, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. John Langlej/Sr., of Muncie, had gone out fishink with Charles Oberly of O, and the Harper bo/ from Muncie. Oberly had a broken arm, and it is understood he dropped his oar which he had used with the other arm. In attempting to recover the oar, the boat was tipped, and shipped water which caused it partially to sink. Langley sank immediately .and Oberly and Harper who clung to the boat, were rescued by one of the camp workmen who saw the accident and hurried out on the lake to their assistance. Young Langley was honor boy of the camp- last year, and one of the respected camp workers this year, serving as assistant to the doctor at the Camp hospital. He could not swim, but this was not known to his companions in the accident until aftewards. He was not a Boy Scout, but was a Y. M. C. A. worker, When news of the accident occurred, doctors, and grappling hooks were sent for, in nearby towns, and tht lung moto w** rushed to Camp Crosley from Waco. The body was not recovered until about noon, it having gone down in 50 feet of water. When the lung motor at Waco was sent for, the Journal office learned of the accident and sent a representative to Camp Crosley to get the facts of the story. It was impossible to drive into the Camp, t.ie boys of the camp having been stationed outside on the roads to prevent a|| pars coming into the camp, save those of doeU»r» apd such assistance. When the tragedy occurred. boys who had not been stationed on the roads were ordered out of camp 10 where they played gam** to k#ep them occupied while the work of atl#)upt#d rescue went on.

Announcement was made Wednesday of the appointment of A. L. Mil--1 ler of Syracuse as manager of the Central Lakes Telephone Corporation. This new corporation embraces the plants of Syracuse, Milford, North Webster, Leesburg and Cromwell. It comes as a result of the petition filed last April with the Public Service Commission in Indianapolis. At that time the telephone comi panies in the county asked for permission to re-group without changI ing rates. The purpose was to decrease the number of corporate books, records and reporta neceseary formerly and to place the toll service under one manager best qualified to ' improve and develop the service. 1 Last month the Public Service Commission approved the re-grouping of I companies ,and yesterday the mana- • ger of the group in which Syracuse is included, was announced. 1 This Centra) Lakes Telephone Corporation is part of the interstate Tel--1 ephone and Telepgraph Company, I which comprises 85 plants.

Last Thursday morning, as last week’s issue was going to press, he came into the Syracuse Journal office, and said: “I got arrested last night. They said my car didn’t have any tail light. I told ’em at least I could get a story out of it for you, and got the napig* of tfcp pfficers and what they were doing. Here it »/' be ponpluded with a grin, State policeman Floyd Fertlg of Plymouth, State Policeman Harley D. Person of Warsaw, and . Sheriff Frank McKrill had been in town Wednesday night of last week. After th# ba;)d gonpert about fifteen cars were stopped by these officers, and drivers warned as to the headlights of their cars, tail lights, cut outs ,and as to reckless driving. In many cases driver’s licenses were asked for by the uffieprg. Jones wa* the only one arrested, and the officers took him to the home of Justice Levi Kitson, whom they roused o’u.t of bed to hear the case. Jones was charged with driving a par yvjtfjout a tail light. He was fined W.76.’ The officers, according to Jones, said they would return later and check up on the warnings issued last week, and also the matter of chiljdren under age driving cars. Th# gage against Jones last Wednesday evening wa* the third in a busy day for Justice Kitson. He had heard two other cases, one against John Helmth for having in his possession a short perch ,and one against L A. Davis for having a short bass. These fi*h*rn;gp had been arrested by Bruce Staple*. ° Each was fined $24. -- ——b— —— The Misses Helen Leacock and Mary Bushong are expected home from Evanston, 111., this evening.
