this four-power guarantee is removed

A CITY‘S PROTECTORS.
One of the finest benefactions that
have come to notice lately is that of
Edward W. flak of Philadelphia. in
recognition of the men in .whOse
hands rests the safety of the city and
its people“ He has provided a sum
of $6.000 a year to be distributed in
equal parts. to six policemen. firemen
and park guards performing the
most'merltorlous work during the
war. A citizens' committee is to ad-
minister the fund and make the selec-
tions.
The guardians of a city's life and
property are too much ignored. Their
service is taken for granted. Courage.
energy. faithfulness are expected of
them as a matter of cOurse. It does
not se m to occur to the majority of
citizens that it takes just as much
nerve for a fireman to break into a.
burning building and rcscue a help-
less woman or put out a menacing
fire. or a poxiceman to attack an arm-
ed bandit and take him into custody.

Do you know that the average American eats more than a. ton of food
every year? The exact figures are 2,664 pounds per man per year. Thai:

And does this Gargantuan appetite really make for national health?
Is it any better for the body than it is for the pocketbook? I notice by"
these same figures from the bureau of labor statistics that the average
American wage-earner manages to keep the spark of life in hié body on.
1,775 pounds of food a year. The A. E. F. ration was 1,540 pounds per
man per year, and if I recollect rightly the American soldier did some

"Can Man Scale Everest?" inquires
a serious headline. “Ch‘iet’ factor
against it is the human equation." ex-
plains a succeeding subhead. cThat's
if you ignore
the mixed metaphor. The chief fac-
tor against most things man attempts
in the human equation.

substantial drop in the monthly total
from this source is anticipated during
the winter months when pleasure mo-
toring is'at a minimum. Receipts
from all of these sources are turned
over to the highway department. uti-
der the law, for financing the mainten-
ance of the state highway system.
The increases in fees will put more
.t’unds at the disposal ot the highway
department for maintenance. During
the war. the difficulty in obtaining
road oil and labor caused the high-
ways to run down. Most of the ener-
gies that formerly went into fife
maintenance of the state highway
system were suddenly diverted to war
purposes. The highway department
under Commissioner Charles J. Ben--
nett made considerable headway the
past season toward putting into good
condition many Qt the roads that suf-
fered during the war. but“ will re-

is beginning to show the good effects
of special effort. The improvement in
the ability of these pupils to stick to
a duty. as well as in the quality of

portance of occasionally setting spec-
ial tasks and striving for their mas-
tery. Of course this A class work de-
mands unusual diligence on the part
