It TRis is as true of the man who walks as of the man who drives ar automo- bile, and taking a chance fis at the bottom of accidents and fatalities which both might have avolded. This is the season when the roads of New England are being plied by more automobiles than ever,. and the opportunities to regret taking a chance are very much increased. It is g fact that 250,000 come into New England from all pams of the country to take their omting, and they spend from $15,000.000 to $20,000,000 here. A great many of them. come in automobiles and the man who takes a chance is with them. If the disposition on the part of all concerned to take chances could be eliminated, the probability is that the fatalities would be reduced one-half. Drivers of automdbiles differ as to the merits of high-speed and low- speed. Some claim that low-speed is an invitation to the man who chances it to take a risk, while high-speed of itself is & warning to the venture- some not to take a chance. The Bulle- tin,is inclined to think a reasonable speed is best for ail concerned. Every person should school himself against taking a chance, whether he is driving a motor car or crossing the street, Careful attention to this would greatly reduce accidents and prevent half the danger and expense to-which all are now subjrl'lml. RECHEATION FOR THE MASSES. While so much is made of the vaca- tion season, it is true but a small part of the people are able to stop work and spend a week or two in idleness. What vacations the masses get are usually compulsory, and they are of little benefit because they are the cause of intense worriment. One of our contemporaries, advocat- va ing two weeks' tion for all at the expense of capital, say “No doubt one reason why men break down so early in our manufac- turing industries is the lack of ade- quate rest times. No human being can work 52 weeks in a year without suffering some physical decline. At 60 vears of age the great majority of our business and professional men are put- ting in their best licks. But how few men of 60 you find in the machine shop and the mill. Very few industries run 52 weeks in the year; amd most of those that do are giving employes vacations of one or two weeks in the yea Some cities find it possible to fur- nish recreation for the masses during the summer months in the way of band concerts. Hoston, appreciating the value of music to the people, gives a band concert from 12 to 2 every day at this time of the year which thou- sands of the employed listen to and appreciate, Money expended to entertain and cheer the people of cities is not thrown away. It is the city which takes good care of its people—which makes life interesting for all—that is attractive and thrives in business and prospers in every way THE WOHTHLESS BATTLESHIPS. When news came from England re- cently that the naval authorities there were inclined to regard the Dread- naughts as obsolete, we did not guite understand it; but the war play of the navy off the New England coast in the past two weeks has awakened the authorities to the fact that the sub- marines must not be underestimated In the maneuvers some of the sub- marines attached to the defensive flest approached the big battleships without being detected and did net come to the surface until within 500 vards of the anchorage. As they carry torpedoes that travel at great speed more than five times that distance it would, apparently, have been an easy matter, in real warfare, for the sub- marines to have absolutely demoliShed at least a part of the attacking fleet. The Gpayling rose from beneath the surface without being detected and within easy halling distance of the Connecticut When we consider the ability of an enemy beneath the water, and one in the air exceeding a mile a minute, to menace and cripple baitleships, may well ask ourselves is mot about over. Wi if their day NOT QUITE. Here's another favorite old beliet gone to the dogs. As an experiment, & physiological chemist at the Univer- sity of lilinois took a voung man of 22, placed him on a normal diet, let him drink at first half-a glass of water at each meal and then gradually in- a creased the amount until the patient was drinking three pints with each meal. The young man throve like milkweed in your pet pea patch. He gained wonderfully The flow in weight and in strength. of gastric juice was stimulated and the processes of digestfon, assimilation and excretion were apparently greatly facilitated, Dyspeptic business men might pause in their occupation of watering stock and try watering the gastric juice for a while.—Portland Express. Since a very small per cent. of the people take water with their ‘meals, but Indulge in tea and coffee of dif- fering strength, it is not so apparent how the old theory that drinking when eating is injurious is knocked out. If this experiment had been continued long enough it is barely possible that ill effects might have been manifested. Those who are in the habit of eating without drinking have no doubt as to the ‘beneficial resulis of the practice: and those who drink excossively water are known to develop a porgli- ness which is unnatural and uncom- fortable. Those whe eat and drink temperately suffer least physically and live the longest. of The democrats who were so shocked over the first billion-dollar congress appear to, be bent upon making this congress a two-billion affair, if possis 1 der various state la city in the state, Lockport included for an 1 ved commission govern- men‘t plan powers of the city are vested in men elected at large for four years and .subject to recall tion.

It can be operated easily by the people without the z1G of political machines, which under tie old form are an in- dispensabie arm of the government. The shert baliot—only five to elect, all of them importart and conspicuous— is the gist of the plan, It is so short that the peopic arc not tempted to rely on ready-made ‘tickets,” but each voter pats togeiher ais own pet ticket with- out help from rrofessional ticket mak- ers.

The people are all ‘in politics, are all complete ‘politicians’! “The list of available candidates is widened immensely by the fact that the commissioners (aldermen) are fot to be obliged to abandon private ca- reers for what may be but a single term of office at the head of an un- “familiar and perhaps uncongenial de- partment.

In Ger- many there are professional mayors, who, having made a suecess as chief executives in a small city progress upwards by being hired by a larger city at an advamce in salary. They are experts in administration, but have, of course, no original powers, being always subject to the direction of the council. EDITORIAL NOTES.
