It i entirely natural feeling. The Republican Party, ¢! h responsibility in the last two Congresses, found itself unvble to exert its full power because of dissension within its own ranks. The voters have seen fit to give the Repub- licans a clear majority without the aid of the insurgents the party has been given power as well as responsibility. The Republican Party, through its legislative majority must go its own way and build up its own record regardless of those bearing the title Republican who would destroy the party. But the mere desire to bring humiliation upon insurgents, or the display of vindicativeness, will bring the party nothing. President Coolidge is not apt to set an example for the rest of the Republican Party in this regard. The utter fair-mindedness of the President, his keen per- soaa! sense of the obligation of service to all the people of the nation, doubtless will lead him to endeavor to unite ail factions and to seek aid from all for the common good. It is to be hoped that the Republican majority in Congress ! offer to the insurgents every opportunity to join in 1 lesome service to the nation.

And only six deaths took place. However, that’s one killed out of every 8400 — one death for every 667,000 miles of flying. Air travel will have to be safer before the public takes it up on any large scale. Safety will come. Railroad journeys once were highly hazardous. Now it reads on’ most accident policies that the company will pay you double liability if death takes place on a train. AUTO ACCIDENTS One of the most dangerous places to be is in an auto, claims a prominent insurance expert. Thirty per cent of the accidents he investigates occur in autos. Almost as many accidents (25 per cent of total) happen in homes. Commonest home accidents are cuts, falling down stairs, slipping from ladders. However, regardless of where you are, safety is largely a matter of personal caution. Develop the safety-first habit in your children. Worth more than a large cash legacy. BREATHE DEEPLY Science note: Shivering in cold weather is an automatic response to the body’s demand for more oxygen, according to a lecturer at London School of Medicine. So breathe deep- ly to get warm. The lecturer, Pro. Cullis, compares the human body to a moisr car engine. Your fuel is oxygen. Sleeping with bed- roor indows closed is like trying to run an auto without g the gas tank.

Experts tell the American College of Surgeons: Their researches indicate that there is no universal cancer germ, but rather a variety of parasites that cause this dread malady.

RY CONDO name, is| Hous offset some of the} MONDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1924 UNTIL DEATH DO YS PART By Albert Apple i Here is romance of the sort that persists through all ; human history. Mary MacLaren, one of the pioneer movie | stars, has retired from the screen. Married about a month {ago in California, she has sailed with her husband, a British \army officer, to spend the rest of their days at army posts. | From the fascinating life of movieland, Mary MacLaren | retires to the obscurity of a lonely military station in north- {ern India. ! You are familiar with her screen work, among the more | recent being “The Face in the Fog” with Lionel Barrymore, '“The Uninvited Guest” and “The Dark Swan,” this latter filmed in Jamaica with considerable color photography. 5 ! i To young women who are deluded that a star career in |the movies would be the greatest thing life could give them, | we recommend the wise example of Mary MacLaren. ' | She knew, in spurning her movie career for a home at the? joutskirts of civilization, that love is the greatest thing in i ife. More than that, it—with the joy of parenthood—is the ; only thing that really counts. | The young woman who is happily married has something |far better than movie statdom. \ | | Happiness is in obeying natural processes. And nature ‘intended us primarily to work for a living and to reproduce. 'Commendable is the desire for a career to perform service for humanity, whether the service is in making drudgery {easier for all or counteracting monotony and making people iforget their troubles for the moment by entertaining them {on the silver screen or otherwise. | Understandable, too, is the desire for a career based on a i craving to shine in the spotlights. All is vanity. | _ What, after all, is real success? It is not in the mere ob- taining of power. Nor is it in acquiring vast riches. Su- preme success is in being a good citizen and a good father or mother—making loved ones happy, keeping the home as our greatst institution, and bringing irto life babies, then guiding them that they may better perform the tasks of this spiritual gymnasium known as life.
