CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON For a Sane Fourth More people have been killed and maimed celebrating the Fourth of July than fell on the battlefield dur-| ing the war which won freedom for the thirteen colonies. That is a ter- tific indictment. A few years ago communities de- vised group celebrations of a public nature to decrease the hazards of The) Fourth. Of recent years the inter- est in the old-style Fourth c«lebra- tion has waned and civic societies are against the havoc of explosives. Already several serious accidents have been reported as the result of premature celebrating. Locally the| “sooners” have been busy in the ab- sence of any attempt to prevent ad- vance noise and din. There is need to renew the drive for a sane Fourth. Parents especial- ly should be on the alert tomorrow to avoid accidents which may mean crippling of bodies or even death. Better a return to the public dem- onstration with its safeguards than! the indiscriminate placing of high} explosives in the hands of children.

New York, July 3.—Here’s sad news for those trumpet-voiced spotiters who have been turned loose from time to time at national conven- tions in Madison Square Garden! No longer can it be said of them that they “made the very rafters ring.” In fact nothing can make the rafters ring from now on. The other day experts from General Electric's research department tackled one of the biggest jobs in the world. Some- thing like 70,000 square feet of sound- absorbing material now tones down the shouts and cat-calls of Brise- fight fans. Radio folk were largely responsible for giving the Garden suitable acous- tics. The reverberations interfered greatly with broadcasts of events in the garden, particularly when bands or choruses were being sent over the air. The confusion was known in the studios as “auditorium din,” and little could be done about it unless a soun- proof ceiling was built. * * * Sleuths of the world of sound have been snooping all over New York for many months trying to figure ways and means of decreasing the general in. The most difficult job ever tackled by the noise Sherlocks is that of try- ing to silence the subways, if possible. At least a year or more will be re- quired for a survey of subway noises alone. And then someone will have to figure out what to do about it. Meanwhile the dear old “roar of the city” goes merrily on! ee One of New York's swanky ice- creameries now places a cross-word puzzle before each patron. The puz- ale is printed on the paper service napkin which accompanies a soda or a@ malted milk. The puzzle is gener- ally simple enough to be solvable be- tween a lettuce sandwich and a final gulp of ice cream soda. ee * Out at Hunter's Island Inn, one of the suburban night clubs frequented by motoring New Yorkers, they have tical | Editor, Daily Health Service Rabies Prevention less * Hydrophobia, By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Journal of the American Medical Association During recent months California has suffered unusually and severely from the biting of human beings by mad dogs. Since 1920 42 persons have died of rabies in the state. Since 1910 and up to May, 1931, there have been 7748 cases of rabies in California. In southern California 275 cases have been established as occuring in ani- mals since January 1, 1931. Rabies or hydrophobia ts one of the most important of the infectious dis- eases from a historical point of view, because it was studied by the great Pasteur, whose name is associated with the method of treatment given to those who have been bitten by mad animals with a view to preventing the development of hydrophobia. At times when rabies is prevalent in the community the lives of both dogs and children may be freed from menace by protecting them against Depends On Curbing Home- Dogs * * in ed by Bite of Mad Animal, Shows Increase ach Cali lifornia Since 1910 xposure to the bite of a maddened anitaal. Homeless animals should &9 picked up and disposed of by the us- ual methods. Failure to enforce the laws regulating the control of home- less animals represents nothing in the way of friendship for the animal and exposes innumerable human beings to the danger of one of the most serious of all diseases. That California should now be in the midst of such a serious situation with relationship to hydrophobia is due to the fact that the people of many California communities have not taken sufficient interest in law enforcement in this connection and due probably also to the fact that more peculiar opponents to scientific medicine reside in that state in pro- portion to the total population than in any other state in our country. ‘The death of any child from hydro- phobia must be considered particu- larly a tragedy when the method of spread and the method of control of the disease are so definitely known. of the trimmings of the outdoor gar- den. It's a radio detector, by the way, and the latest gadget of Will Oakland, who has played about with radio devices since its early days. There is @ delicately adjusted spark gap, a sen- sitive relay and a signal bell hooked to an ordinary radio outfit. The ap- proach of an electrical storm is pre- saged by the ringing of the bell, which becomes a veritable alarm as the storm approaches and gives everyone @ chance to run indoors before the rain begins. * Oe And the entranceway to the high Peaks of the Empire State building now resembles some miniature carni- val. Since peeping from the highest building in the world has become a favorite tourist stunt—with the town- folk rushing the place, as well—con- cessionaires have bought up stands for Postcards, lunch stands, ice cream and any number of souvenirs.

People Will Vote Again | Under a supreme court decision; the validity of the petitions sus- Pending the four-cent tax on gas-| oline have been upheld. Despite! some irregularities, the court finds' the petitions comply, essentially. at least, with the law. This decision will be haled by many as sound and in accordance with Precedent in the handling of peti- tions. The intent of the signers was clear. It was a mere technicality that some compliance had not been made, the court seems to have cut through all red tape, to have elim- inated splitting of hairs and mere quibble and to have gone to the es- sential controlling factors. The formal opinon of the court, will be of great interest. Merely an order is on record at this writing and the formal opinion is to follow later. For the time being at least, the State Highway Commission abandon nearly a million dollars in new road ventures. Farmers and| _ townspeople who feel the pressure of high taxes and wasteful expendi- ture of funds will welcome this sur- cease. The people of the state spoke once against an increase in the gas- oline tax, but administration forces sought to force an additional tax from their pocketbooks, willy nilly. Next March, the people may re- verse themselves at the polls and ac- ./ cept the tax. The best side of the bet, however, is that they will defeat the tax until there is a more def- j4s, fer instax the new Sperry arti- ficial horigon and Aipagcoeneree: gyro. ‘This inst plane wl contr ch floats in Liquid and is isd by gyresc an aviator of any change plane's altitude or direction or cf any pes.

The cus- tom saved horses’ lives. After horse hats came into vogue, the horse mor- tality due to animals dropping dead while at work decreased materially. A few horses still work in city streets. During this year's record hot spell, an alert observer might have noted many of these docile creatures in sore distress, panting alarmingly under the pitiless sun. But the same/ | observer would have noted few if any | horse hats. Why not hats for horses once more—hats whose high peaked crowns might again hold dripping wet Sponges?

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER VIII i visiting star that week was Curtis Blue, 35, blond, with eyes of so deep a color they seemed almost the “violet eyes” of Victor- fan novels. He was of the matinee {dol tribe and professed to hate it. He had a wife somewhere in Holly- wood, a feverish, dark, young woman who was teaching the May- fair accent to Queenie Whitebait, the comedy star. “Isn’t he a lamb?” asked Muriel the day of his arrival. “He's rather nice. Mother played with him in ‘Cabbages and Kings,’ Liane returned indifferently, “You knew him before, then? Why, you sly piece!” And Muricl pretended to see something that was not there. Blue came along, perfectly groomed in his dark gray coat and striped trousers, his beautifully curved soft gray hat. His bow was a miracle of precision. He stopped with a side glance for the luscious Miss Ladd in her apple green sports shirt and shorts, her brown legs shapely and seductively bare. Liane performed introductions and Muriel cooed at him. “I en- jJoyed your performance so much!” He looked as modest as possible, “I thought you had threatened to break into the company this sea- son,” he said to Liane. “You wretch,” she pouted. “When I asked your advice last winter you said not to go on the stage what- Mr. Blue? Would you say I had a chance?” eee H= favored her with an eye half insolent, half honestly apprats- ing. “The chorus for you,” he said with cooiness. “You've the looks, the verve.

Come along and have a cocktail with me to prove you didn’t mean to hurt my feelings.” He glanced at his watch. “Five o'clock. How far is it? I've got to be back at the inn by six. Must have an early dinner or I'm all wrong for the evening perform- ance.” Muriel said airily. “I'll drive like & streak. You need a pick-me-up with that grouch of yours,” He stared at.her. He, the great Blue, being cheeked by a flapper! MABEL ever else I did. You told me I was an awkward cub, that I needed to learn to talk and walk and smile Properly. You told me I sald ‘gonna’.” “Well, so you did,” he returned, flashing his justly famous smile at ker, “But you've improved. You might learn. Who can tell?” Liane threw out her hands in de- spair. “How is a poor girl to know what to do? First you say ‘yes,’ then you say ‘no,’ I’m bewildered.” “Ob, you'll marry withiy the year and settle down to @ flock of babies,” Blue drawled. “Maybe it’s the best way, I don’t know.” But she was 80 pretty, so saucy, he decided to forgive and forget. Be- sides, a spot of something would perk him up. Liane watched them climb- into the speedy roadster half amused, half envious. No wonder Muriel al- ways got her man! She certainly went after this one cdlmly enough. Liane wondered just how deep her feeling for the impecunious Chuck Desmond had bitten. Muriel was rightfully susceptible. She was the modern feminine version of the roving sailor. She had @ boy in every port, Liane went ,down the aisle, “No, 1 shan't! through the now darkened theater, you!” she flamed.

Liane introduced the pair and to her utter amazement. Cass beamed on the young man, “Wasn't your mother Grace Franks, Who played Shakesperean toles long ago?” she inquired: Charles said “yes” very solemnly, “I thought so,” Cass nodded. “You run slong, Liane, and change your dress while I talk to Mr. Desmond. There are so many things I want to ask him.” Will wonders never cease, thought Liane, as she hastily slipped into her one presentable she did not notice the tangle of| froc! wires and she stumbled and would have fallen if the big man had not reached out and caught her in his arms.
