Rather, the word includes, besides common attributes, all those indi- vidualities and Idiosyncracies which, while not always reprehensible in themselves, make their possessor enough different from other men in reaction to take him out of the average and place him in the class of the potentially unsuccessful or unsate.” This has the resonance of sound doctrine. The reading of character according to how a man drives his car i3 just one more step in the direction of abandoning palmistry, phrenology and the reading of character by handwriting. Fortunately the average of auto- mobile performance is high, ac- cording to the motor commissioner. He quotes figures. About 85 per cent of motor operators have or |show desirable characteristics, while the remaingng 15 per cent cause all the trouble, running the gamut from “a slight tendency to- wards absentmindedness to actual criminality It the courts kept these statistics in mind it would be easler to deal with the 15 per cent causing motor troubles. The motor commissioner goes into a long dissertation regard- !ing the reactions of motorists when confronted with an emergency and includes the production of unneces- sary emergencles by the 15 per cent.

A NUTMEG FLIGHT Thum} local history, Bridgeport Telegram announces that the first attempt at trans-Atlantic flying originated in the Park city, "way back in 1856, when the bal- loon Bridgeport was inflated for a trip from that city to Paris. Of course, the balloon never ar- rived at its destination, else more of us would have remembered the incident. As the balloon the Bridgeport paper ;F(\)‘S, t got no further than six miles from Bridgehampton, L.

What is the history of wrest- lUing? A. It is common to all nations, and has been brought to a science in countries as widely separated as the United States, Turkey, India, China and Japan, each of which has its own laws and methods for the sport. The ancient Greeks held wrestling in high repute. Milo of Groton, a great athlete, for six years carried off the prize for wrestling in the Isthmian and Olympic games. Japan claims records of the sport in 23 B. C., when the emperor matched two very strong men, named Ke- hayet and Nimono-Sukune, for a bout. The latter killed the former, and thus came to be tutelary deity of wrestlers in that country. Wrest- ling tournaments existed in England in the time of the Plantagenets, but it,appears to have been the pastime of the lower orders only. After the early part of the 18th century the sport declined, and it was not until early in the 19th century that an ef- fort was made to revive fit. Q.
