Furnas wrote “And Sudden Death” for the Readers Digest, the editors preceded it with a warning, “the realistic details of this article will nauseate some readers.” The Journal publishes this warning also, to those who just can't read about it—but who must take the curves on the lake road at 75. In the case of reporting automobile accidents, the Journal has attempted to avoid giving the gruesome details, but the Readers’ Digest seems to favor the policy of telling all, so that some driver may be held back from taking chances — or taking a drink before driving. Many dailies are printing statistics on how many killed and how many injured since the first of the year; each Monday the papers state how many were killed in automobile accidents over the week end. But those are just figures. Publication of this article is not because of any one accident occurring. It isn’t the man learning to drive who is the danger on the road - its the man who knows all about driving, and just Must drive more than 60—the one who speeds down Main street regardless of parked cars and pedestrians, and who takes the corner at the bank, on to Huntington with screaming tires, regarding of machines in the line of traffic ahead—or who might be approaching from the other direction. * . a TO THINK ABOUT Lies are essential to good manners. —Bertrand Russell.

TIMELY TEXTS. By John A. Pettit. JOHN 14:23:—1f a man love me. he will keep my words. Life today would be a great deaj simpler than it is, if we could live it on a plane of Christian ideals. Life would be much happier, too, if men and women would conduct their lives after the pattern of Jesus of Nazareth. It is widely agreed by intelligent people, that this would be the best of all possible worlds, rather than the worst of all possible worlds, If it were only a truly Christian world. But somehow or other, society has failed to incorporate under the laws of Christianity. In spite of the tremendous numbers of Christians in the world, we still lack the power of the Spirit of Jesus in our modern living. There is but one way in which anyone can acquire the power of the Spirit of the Master in living. It is through constantly following the ideals of Jesus to their logical conclusion—and this very few people have ever done, Jesus said very plainly that the secret of power is love. If we loved Him, admired His ideals, and believed in Him as we say we do in the Western World—then we would keep His words better than we do. Too many people today do not even know the wordfe of Jesus well enough to begin keeping them. Now the failure of power in most human lives can be traced directly back to some failure of love in a human heart. The feebleness of the Church in the modern scene, the lack of vitality, is due to the fact that modern people do not love Jesus of Nazareth. They have little appreciation for Him, and for what His life has meant to the world. They know so little of His life, and even less of His teachings, that they have no sincere love nor admiration for Him. Some, because of their wickedness, are afraid of Christ. Others, because of their skeptical materialism, are suspicious of Him. Still others, because of the bitterness within their own souls, resent His goodness, and despise Him. Is it any wonder that there is so little Chrbtian power evident in our society?

Those who really love Jesus, know Him intimately, admire Him steadfastly, and follow Him courageously. Such are they who find the power of God filling their lives. It is the tragedy of the Church, as it is the supreme tragedy of civilization, that people have come to believe that they can be Christians without the Power of Love, the Power of Christ, in their hearts. Christ must dwell permanently in the hearts of men and women who call themselves Christians. And Christ in a man's heart always finds away of expressing Himself in beauty. The entire secret of spiritual power, which most of us seek, and so few of us find, is wrapped up in the brief words of Jesus: “If a man love me, he will keep my words, and My Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.* To have the power of Christ in our lives, individually or socially, we must love Jesus of Nazareth well enough, that we «re willing to keep his words. And now they threaten to take “tea" away from the “teetotlar."

MOTOR ACCIDENTS TAKE 15,200 LIVES First Six Months Rolls Up an Alarming Total. Hartford, Conn. —Approximately 15.200 persons Were killed and more than 900.000 injured in street and highway accidents the first six months of this year, according to state reports analyzed by the Travelers Insurance company. , Eight thousand of the total of 15,200 deaths have been pedestrian. Nearly 3,100 persons have been killed In collisions between cars. Almost 500 persons have been killed In the collisions of automobiles and trains. The percentages of deaths of pedestrians and persons involved. In collisions between cars as well as in automobiletrain collisions have been greater this year than for the corresponding part of last year. Fatal Collisions. More than 1,500 have been killed in the collision of automobiles with fixed objects and nearly 1,500 also have been killed In non-collision accidents, both of which totals are less In percentage than the first six months of last year. Deaths from automobile accidents have been around 2 per cent less than the casualties for the corresponding period of last year, but It is possible that this decrease will be more than wiped out by complete and revised figures yet to be reported by all states. During the last four years deaths from automobile accidents have been 34 per cent greater in the last half of the year than the first, and If this should hold true for this year, the total number of casualties would approximate 35,600. With more cars now in* use than last year, the number of persons who will be killed this year is likely to exceed the present estimate which will be subject to an increase because of upward revisions in state reports In keeping with the trend of fatalities. Drunken Drivers. Available records for the first half of the yeat show an Increase of almost 13 per cent In the number of drivers under the Influence of liquor who were Involved in accidents, as well as an Increase of 10 per cent In the number of pedestrians under the Influence of liquor who were involved in automobile accidents. Automobile-pedestrian accidents continue to be extremely serious, present figures show, as the records available for the first half of this year Indicate that about 40 per cent of all personal Injury automobile accidents Involved pedestrians, but the deaths of pedestrians comprised more than 50 per cent of all automobile accident fatalities. Although automobile-train collisions the first six months of this year accounted for half of 1 per cent of all personal-injury accidents, the Reaths resulting from such mishaps were In excess of 3 per cent of the total of 15.200. Non-collislon accidents accounted fur less than 50 per cent of the.accidents, but the deaths from them totaled almost 10 per cent of all fatalities. Boy Declared First to Discover Gold in West Danville, Calif. —George Van Gordon, nlnety-year-old rancher and horse breeder, arises to say John Marshall was not the first person to discover gold in California. “It was a ten-year-old boy, John Wimmer." recalled Van Gordon. "His father worked for Gen. John A. Sutter at Coloma. John gave the nugget he found to his father, who gave it to John Marshall, who gave it to Mrs. Wimmer, and she boiled It In the soap kettle. I’ve heard the Wimmers tell the story many times." Van Gordon perhaps knows. He came to California in 1846, remembers how everyone abandoned his work and rushed to the gold fields. He remembers Lola Montes, the dancer: Joaquin Murietta, most vengeful and dashing of American bandits, and the Vigilantes.

CHANGES ARE FEW IN WHEAT CONTROL PLAN FOR 1935-39 LAFAYETTE, Ind.—The new wheat production control contract which will be offered to Hoosier wheat producers along with those of the nation, will provide for an acreage reduction of 15 per cent on the 1936 crop below the average acre age grown in the base period, according to word received by Director J. H. Skinner of the Agricultural Extension Department of Purdue University, from AAA officials in Washington. The contract covers a four year period, 1936-39, inclusive but may be terminated at the end of two years by growers, if they Wish, or at the end of any crop year, by the Secretary of Agriculture. The main difference between the contract now under consideration and the original signed in 1933 include: a more specific provision for adjustment of payments based on actual average farm prices of wheat during the marketing year; a four year program instead of a three year program, but with the option for growers to withdraw at the end of two years, if they desire; maximum reduction from the total base acreage of 25 per cent instead of 20 per cent; although it will be 15 per cent for the coming year; provision that changes in the division of adjust ment payments resulting from changes of lease arrangements by land holders must be approved by county allotment committees; adn a provision under which a signer may designate a beneficiary to receive adjustment payments in the case of death or disappearance of the signer. More responsibility for county allotment committees and increased local participation in administration of the program is provided in various ways. In a statement received by Dean

Skinner, who is head of the educational work in this state on the AAA, Cheater V Davis, administrator of the Farm Act, points out that the new amendments to the Act which have passed both Senate and House, specifically enact the rates of processing taxes, thus meeting fully the question of delegation of legislative power, which was the point upon, which the processing tax provisions in the original act were held unconstitutional. Davis also stated that signers would be fully protected as to compensation for actual performance of compliance with the contract, up to time of termination. "Even if an adverse deeision of the Supreme Court should materialize at some future time, “Mr. Davis said, “the contract in its present form is admirably devised to protect both the farmers and the Government. The Government would have both a moral and a legal obligation to compensate farmers fully for performance up to the date of such a decision. The Government in fairness and honesty, would pay, and legally would be bound to pay in full for their compliance up to that time, but not beyond that time.” As soon as the contract and supplementary forms are approved and printed, a sign-up campaign is planned among wheat farmers. The national campaign will seek to place from 50 to 53 million acres of wheat land under contract. In the first campaign in 1933, about 51 million acres were placed under contract. This area represented about 78 per cent of the 66 million acres of wheat land in the U. S. The wheat *• control program as worked out was endorsed by a nine to one vote in the referendum vote taken May 25, and the new contract embodies the idea offered by farmers and wheat campaign leaders who were in Washington July 1 and 2.
