The subject may not be left with- out another warning to people who #till insist upon walking on the right hand side of the road at night. They are in constant danger of being run down by cars coming up from behind, the drivers of which may ndt be able to see the pedestrians. Walking on the left hand side of the road, the pedes- trian is able to see the headlights of driver any approaching car whose may not be able to see him, and the pedestrian is able to get out of the way it the driver, through such in- ability to see the pedestrian, does not turn out. All intelligent people, think- ng of this matter, will not only walk on the left hand side of the road themselves, but will explain the wis- dom of such practice to all pedestrians they see disregarding this rule. Some drivers of cars now are taking pains to stop in the road, hail pedestrians whom they have narrowly and explaln the escaped hitting, situation to them. RS e—— HARDING ON ENFORCEMENT.

Contractors, tradesmen and build- ing material producers are in danger of losing their source of income if the “strike"” continues. Companies which supply material must shave down their profits. Contractors must fig- ure their costs more closely. The men who wield hammers and trowels must be willing to do a little more for a little less. Unless all make“a sincere effort to bring costs down, they will be walking the streets with time hanging heavily on their hands. “BARKIS IS WILIJN'.” There is no intention to compare Henry Ford to the celebrated fiction character who habitually ~ was “willin’" to do things that pleased him when they were suggested, espe- clally when it came to a matrimonial venture, but the reply of Henry's secretary to the inquiry as to his wishes in regard to the ‘‘Ford for President” activities does suggest the character. “In view of the interest displayed,” says such reply, “Mr. Ford can have no objection to their further activities in this direction.” In view of Henry's “willin'ness” in spite of the assertion of Henry's wife that if he goes to the White House he will not have her company, and in view of the fact that Collier's poll shows several people who would vote for Henry if they had the chance, it is interesting to read the Herald's Washington correspondent’s analysis of the. movement, as pub- lished in this newspaper yesterday. About the best recommendation— and possibly the only one—is that Henry would not have the support of the politiclans except the few who, for personal reasons, wish to exploit him. There. Henry's chances as well as his qualifications end. If the popular feeling for Henry were all turned into votes for him, and if the delegates instructed for him all stood by him in the convention, he could muster some 200 votes necessary for nomination. His great- est strength lies in states where that strength can not be expressed In the convention. But even if Ford dele- gates went to the convention in full strength, they might not “stick,” as witness the case where Ohlo voters instructed for Wood in 1820, but after {the first few votes in the conven- | tion they switched for Harding, who had made but a poor showing in less Ohio. There is the possibility that Ford agencies may become centers of Ford-for-President movement, but, says the Herald's correspondent, it would be an “outside” movement, and such affairs are not usually | ful | Having devoted this amount of| space to Henry the thought occurs { that it is somewhat a waste of good paper except as it brings up for thought one of the mysteries of this country—how any intelligent person could consider ssriously little Henry wobbling about in thes Presidential chair, gazing into space and seeking in a mental picture of his excellent all | success- | the changes that are bound to come in the future as they have come in the past, and we might well try to profit by the experience gained when those other changes did come. No one may rightly say today that he is building for the future and Lhat noth- ing can make out-of-date or in- efficlent that which he bullds. Last May, for instance, there were 137,000 more automobiles produced than dur- ing the same week of last year. Are we preparing to adjust ourselves to a like or greater increase next year? This increase in the number of auto- mobiles is cited merely as one phase of the changes that come dally. The man who relies on it has always been that way" as an argument against an innovation is building his house on sand that is sure to be swept from beneath it. Maturity brings a broad- er vislon as compensation for lost youth—youth which has no eyes ex- cept for the present. Prohibition jokes are full of humor., dry There is no connection between Secretary Mellon's strict liquor rulings and his going to Europe for a ‘'rest.” “When you are in Rum do as the Rummies do." The cooling breeze brought happi- ness; The leaves stirred on the trees; In thankfullness for joyous hours Men fell upon thelr knees; Good-natured smiles adorned each face; Erased was every frown— This may describe the Somewhere Land, But not New Britain town. Henry Kagd is reported to have said Emerson will be read after the Rible if forgotten-—which shows how good Henry is at making flivvers. Facts and Fancies BY ROBERT OUILLEN.

FORD WILL CONSIDER Ts Building Factory in Canada to Apply a New Low Tempera- ture Process. Detroit, June 26, —Backed by Henry Ford, a factory for the jow tempera- ture distillation of coal, which a ton of coal is expected to yield as high as 10 gallons of motor fuel as a by- product, is under construction at the Ford factory at Walkerville, Ont,, it was announced by Wallace Campbell, president of the Iord Motor company of Canada. I The factory, which will cost about $500,000, will distill about 400 tons of coal a day. The motor fuel by-prod- uet, which it is expected eventually may be as universally used as gaso- line, will be distilled from the ray | tuel without affecting the fuel value of the restdue, which, it is gaid, will burn |as well, if not better, than the “raw" | coal. Should the experimental factory |prove successful, other factories will, |be constructed by the Ford company. The distillation process Is the inven- tion of Emil Piroy, assicted hy Ralph . Lamie, who is said to be in Detroit in connéction with the new Ford in- ustry. Mr. Ford is believed to have had the new process in mind when he made the statement recently that he would show the world. how to burn coal twics, 20e 1b. Tomorrow 64 Ehop—adit.
