6 TELLS CLUB WOMEN IN CONVENTION THEY COULD REDUCE AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS! John C. Long Outlines Plan for Analysis Believes Mortality Records Can Be Lowered by Per sistent Efforts. CHAUTAUQUA. N. T.. June 23.—“1f every club woman in the United States would confer on herself the degree of ‘Doctor of Safety,’ traffic accidents would soon be virtually done away with," said John C. I-ong of the National Automo bile Chamber of Commerce, speaking be fore the General Federation of Women’s Clubs here today. “Most accidents on our highways are needless." said the speakers. “The con ditions which cause them are prevent able. Twenty-eight cities lowered their traffic fatality records in 1921. Detroit and St. Louis nearly halved their pre vious highway mortality figures. Credit for this decrease belongs to local ‘Doc tors of Safety,’ who diagnosed the trou ble and then applied strong remedies to 1 bring about a convalesence. “The increase of motor vehicles to the number of ten million in use today has come about so rapidly that we have been staggered by the traffic problem. We have passed stringent laws, cried for punishment of the speeder and demand ed that traffic rnle violators be put in jail. This is all well enough, but it 1* not fundamental “Among the causes of traffic accidents are careless driving, children playing in the streets, poor parking accommoda tions. insufficient playgrounds, bad lighting, lack of signs, narrow street limits, inadequate police force, unintel ligent traffic regulations. “If the clubwomen of the United States would confer on themselves the degree of ‘Doctor of Sfety.’ accidents would soon be virtually done away with. "Any woman’s club can make a safety diagnosis of its own town and cure the accident evil. Make a map of the city. Place a white pin at every point where a child accident occurred during the past year and a blue pin for every adult ac cident on the highways. There you have a basis for determining accident causes. “Are there many pins concentrated at certain points? Perhaps better light ing. more sigas and more police are needed there. Are most of the pins In the middle of blocks rather than at in tersections. Then a campaign to urge crossing at the crossings is needed. Are the child pins prevalent? Then more at tention is needed in school instruction, in home training, in local playgrounds. “Following this study, which should reveal the worst of the sore spots, should come a study of the police records on accident cases. At what time of day and year did these occur? Special traf fic police relief at peak periods might help. What was the apparent Immediate cause of the accident? If speeding and carelessness are coming more in evi dence. a campaign on public opinion on the part of the mother would be of great assistance in law enforcement. “This diagnosis of the anatomy and the records is but the beginning of the task, bnt It is a beginning which has been largely overlooked. “For the remedies one may turn to Detroit, which has large playgrounds and elaborate safety instruction in the schoo’s: to Cleveland, which has Junior patrols to aid the yonng and the help less in crossing the street: to Buffalo, to Indianapolis, and to other cities on the safety honor roll of 1921. where the local schools and associations will be able to tell what methods are being used to highways more safe. “Among the other leading cities which recorded fewer traffic fatalities in 1921 than in 1920 are: Akron. Ohio: Atlanta. Ga.: Bayonne. N. .T.: B-rkeley. Cal.: Bridgeport. Conn.; Cincinnati. Ohio; Dayton, Ohio: Grand Rapids. Mich.: Lansing -Mich.: Milwaukee, kYis.. Minne apolis. Minn : Newark. N.

By i '• that Is meant that no matter how exhausting the day has been, nor how hot the night, one should try to banish worry when one climbs in fo bed. Lie back on the pillow with mind and muscles relaxed; soon sleep will steal over you. Oddly enough a person who has worked himself into a state of mental hysteria because of the heat can woo sleep success fully by means of a warm bath —not a cold one. A prolonged warm bath re laxes tense muscles, and although red dening the skin has the beneficial effect of withdrawing the blood from the centers within. It generally is followed by a comfortable feeling of drowsiness —then sound, healthy sleep. For those tired mentally, as well as physically, a hot foot bath Just before getting into bed serves to put one in a sleepy fTatne of mind. The "evaporation process" enables many to drop off to sleep despite hot nights. This is a prolonged luke warm bath. Then instead pf drying oneself with a towel stretch out, still damp, on the bed and let the norma! current of air circulating in the bedroom dry one by evaporation. If these methods fall to make one sleep there is something radically wrong with the Individual himself.

It was early in the morning when Gar rick with Dick turned into the -driveway of Glenn's house at Nonowantuc. “Any word of Vira and Ruth?” queried Glenn. “Not yet. But there is something you can do. Have you had your breakfast? Then c< me along.” At Defoe’s boathouse laboratory Gar rick posted Glenn on guard. "Now, look here, boy—if you love Vira and want her back, guard this place as you would your life." Garrick had assumed a rather stern tone; he knew he must impress Glenn. “Inside and out,” he added seri ously. , “I'd like to be with you hunting the girls,” returned Glenn promptly, “but if sticking here will help me, depend on me. I’ll be a sticker, ail right. Only for heaven's sake, get those girls.” Dick grasped his hand and Garrick slapped his back encouragingly. With one last loos, to see that nothing had been disturbed, Dick grabbed up a small cak case and some other portaole par aphernalia and lugggd it out to the car. “Never can tell,” he said to Garrick. “I bati to be out of radio touch. And why the club can’t appropriate money for an outfit, I can't see.” Garrick made the club his headquarters and he felt he would like to start the day there. “Oast thy words upon the ether and they shall return unto thee after many days,” laughed Garrick as he looked over his mail. “I suppose now for a week I'm going to be bombarded with mail from rado fans. It’s always that way. Where d< they find the time to write all the letters. Say—here s one, though. Read thar. A postcard—postmarked ’Northpost.' ’ Dick, who was familiar with ways | of the radio listeners, read the card: , “Your message was good and clear — But why did you suddenly stop when you began to tell us your suspicions? “P. S. I don't approve of phonograph selections in radio broadcasting, auy how. 1 can buy records. “K 902.” “Someone on a cruiser or motorboat with a wireless,” commented Garrick. ”1 like your radio fraternity, Dick. They certainly do take an iutereat in one an other and go out of their way to do it.” Dick laughed. “You should see my mail: Why, if they don’t like a thing they almost take it us a personal Insult for a free service!” “There's a catch in it somewhere,” considered Garrick. “Now what does he mean? I didn't stop. I went right on to the end. And the phonograph record —what’s that?” l)ii k shrugged. His mind was on some : thing else. Garrick, in his room, hav- Sing without avail tried to find out the ; identity of “K 9fi2” from the limited | lists at the club, called tne customs home In New York and requested the looking up of the number in the motorboat reg : istration under the Federal law. He waited. “Just what I expected.” .fidgeted Dick. "Marooned—away from a radio for no ; one knows how long. That's why I grabbed this thing up. the first thing I laid my hands on. Got the receiving apparatus—ail but the antenna. Oh, very well—we'll see." Dick snapped in place small clips that connected the bed springs of Garrick's bed —and put the headpieces like a tele- I phone receiver to his ears. ! “Bed springs—the iron fire escape—the gas and water pipes—the telephone wire i—” he remarked as he tuned and ad ! Justed, “almost anything may serve as an antenna in a pinch.” The room telephone rang for Garrick. It was the customs bouse calling. “We find.” reported the clerk, “that K 902 i= registered by Patrick Devins, Bridge port, Conn., a forty-foot cabin cruiser, ■named ‘Lassie.' Want a description?” Garrick had just finished copying it ; when a loud exclamation came from i Dick. “By Jove—Guy' It's a message j from Ruth!

Her mother:” Somehow Ruth had cleverly contrived to communicate with the outside world by radio. Together the two hurried down the long corridor and up a flight of stairs to Nlta Walden’s rooms.

Tell me, Dick!” Dick blurted it out. “Oh. what awful people!” shuddered Mrs. Walden. “But Ruth says, ‘attempted elopement'—that means Ruth is all right. It didn’t sue- j ceed. But—what can you do now? Oh, j there’s my telephone ringing again.” | She turned from the phone room be wildered. “It was that Itae Larue girl —calling me. Oh, but there was hate 1 and spite and jealousy in her voice! The little vixen!” “But what did she say?” calmed Gar- i rick. "I can’t begin to repeat the flood of , words. Why, you’d think that I, Ruth's mother, had tried to frame up some- i thing against her! She said, ‘l’d have you know that Jack Curtis is my bus- j band! I married him in Chicago two years ago! I won't have that daughter of yours coming between us, and I've , told him so. I'll squeal—l'll hand the , whole bunch over, first.’ ” “Bully!” interrupted Garrick to Nita’s J astonishment.

But i beyond, in the harbot. one instant was a rowboat with a girl and fellow in it. the girl in a bathing suit. They seemed to be struggling The next instant, like a , three-foot flash of a motion picture, there i was a huge column of water and puff of smoke, black wreckage of the boat. It seerred that, by a split second before, tne j two had struggled overboard or leaped. I Then oame the deep report, echoing and j reverberating among the Nonowantuc hills. j “Glenn!” exclaimed Garrick, as McKay i released the brakes and rolled down like ! a roller coaster the rest of the way. 1 They were in time to see that the boat '•house was unharmed, a little speed boat which they had not noticed now circled j about. It picked up the girl and started ! off furiously toward the mouth of the i harbor. A black object, Glenn, struggled I feebly in the water. By this time Dick j had his coat off. He ripped his shirt as | he ran down the dock and plunged off, j almost unencumbered by that time. | When Garrick prilled them both out and : had Gienn sufficiently revived to find that there were no broken bones, he had begun to get the story. Glenn, it seemed, had been on tho road-side of the boathouse from which he had expected attack, If at all, when lie had heard a noise under the work j shop. The workshop was on the second floor. Under It had been a boat-shed. It had been converted Into a hangar by Dick, with a skid-way down Into the wa- INDIANA DAILY TIMES DID YOU KNOW— You should arrive at a public en tertainment, as a theater or concert, just before the performance begins so that you do not inconvenience those already In their places.

In it he had a hydroairplane on which he was working, Installing one of his new radio Ideas. “I saw Kae,' he panted for breath. “She had come up to the boathouse, alone, In a rowboat with a little engine over the stern. She was sticking the nose of the boat under the boathouse In the channel between the skidway. I saw something smoking in the bow. The engine was going slowly, keeping the nose of the boat up under the boathouse, I ran down and Jumped Into the boat. “My God, Rae," I shouted. “Going to kill us both?” “With a boat hook In both hands she lunged at rae but It hit my shoulder In stead of my head. ‘Damn you!” she cried, ’I have had to say so many nice things to you when I didn’t feel It— here's another wallop!’ “I swung the boat free, gave the pier a kick and It turned.

The blow had been In tended for them: it had miscarried and Glenn had risked his life. “We’ll leave McKay here for a few minutes. LIT drive your car. Nlta. I must get Gienn home. He's mustered out with all the honors “Wait a minute.” It was Dick. “We left that other set in your room at the, club. I’ve got anew one. I’m a bug on this, 1 can't be out of touch witli the air a minute and be happy.” As Garrick drove them, Dick told what had happened at the club. “But," asked Gienn. reviving, “why rhe attempt to wreck the boathouse-lab ?” “Because,” quickened Garrick, “it is the one place, they know, contains the apparatus to ferret them out and catch them!” At Glenn's they waited for Dr. Darling to run over from Stony Brook to dress his w<oinds again. “You must, fellows; I need your moral support,” begged Glenn. ’’He'll give me the devil." “Now, Dick, hook up that business you brought along. I've got the fever, too, a passion for pulling Information down out of the air. like the prestidigitators do with goldpleces." Dick busied htmseif about the tele phone for some time, then set up his re ceiving set. •'lt's n sort of wired wireless,” he ex plained, “based on a discovery, invented and perfected by a regular shnrk at this thing, Major General Squler.” While they waited for the doctor a raft of inconsequential stuff filtered through. The doctor entne. was pacified professionally, and wa just finishing a lecture on asepsis. "Another message!” interrupted Dick. "From Vira—and Ruth?” brightened Glenn. Dick shook his head. "Guy— It's that fellow again—K IM2—he's over at Mount Sinai—here, take this other earpiece.” Garrick fairly slapped Dick's shoul der as they listened. “Wtat did T say? Didn't I say eherchez a -Jealous woman? I knew Itae in her Jealousy would do something and she has done it—Just when this fighting Irishman, Dsvlus, came along in his K 902!” Dick <4utlned silence. They listened. Then Glenn cut In, demanding to know the story. "It's Just this, Glenn,” retailed Gar rick, when he was sure that no more news was being spilled, “that fellow, Devins, In Ihe K 062 was cruising down the Sound with his eyes open when he easv what he thought was the Sea Vamp In the inlet at Mount Sinai, where they used to load the old wood packets In the old days. As he got nearer he couljf make ou; with his glass l hat they were transferring stuff from the houseboat to a scout, cruiser up alongside.” Glenn nodded. “It was our floating storehouse, the Sea Vamp.” “■Well, as ha got nearer, he made out through his glass what looked like two men struggling with a couple of girla. Tho scout boat was drifting away from the houseboat then. The girls couldn’t fight; tiiey seemed to bo tied. They must have been Ruth and Virs. Then another girl caine front a cabin. She must have had a knife or something, for sue cut the other two loose. Some sailors catne on deck. The scout was pointing out Into the Sound by this time. One of the men grabbed the other and flung him overboard. The Devins couldn’t catch the scout, so be kept right on till he came up to the Sea Vamp. Who should he find there, pacing the deck and erasing a blue streak but Captain Brock- donmped overboard, double crossed and left behind?” “And Ruth and Vira not on the Sea Vamp—on this other boat?” “Yes. He's got Brock. That’s two. Now we know that Brock at least isn't the mau-at-the top.” Back at the boathouse to tell Nlta Walden they found that she more than tiiey did. “I didn't know McKay knew so ranch about radio," she cried excitedly. “While we were waiting he was trying to know all about it. And, Dick, he got a sec ond message from Ruth! Here It Is. I wrote it down, just as McKay says he got it.” . On a piece of wrapping paper Nlta had written : “On the Bacchante, headed down the Sound toward the ocean. I hear the men talk of Fire Island. This is Ruth—” “That's where it broke off,” half apologized McKay. Dick paced up and down the workshop floor. Finally, he lifted a trap door and climbed down to the former boathouse below. When Garrick climbed after him a few minutes later he found Dick, smeared and greasy, coat off. covered with per l gptration, working feverishly. Garrick looked about keenly. The for mer boathouse had been transferred into j a real hangar. Dick looked up from his ! work. 'I guess you remember enough to look ' over those pontoons?" he called to Gar- j kick, waving toward the hydroaero plane. "What's the Idea?" “I’m tuning up. I wasn't quite ready* to exhibit the Defoe radioplane—but, l hang it all—the ‘Bacchante’ must he found—with Ruth!” (Concluded in Our Next Issae.)

'Then I guess we’ll all have to go hungry." "If I could just have something to eat, I’d be satisfied.' said Mister Minky. "But everything I eat tastes hitter." ’You know why?" asked Raggedy Ann. “It’s because you are bitter yourieJf. Now. If you were only happy and pleas ant and full of fun, then you'd see that even things that you do not like to eat tastes very, very good.” "But how can I be happy if every one does everything to make me cross?” Raggedy Ann had to laugh at this. "Dear me," suz Mister Mlnky, "can't you see that other people aren't doing any thing to make you cross? It is you who do not wish to be happy, and if you would Just start right in laughing and having fun and Join in the pleasures of others, you would soon see that you hnvo been making yourself unhappy and peevish.’’ "Then, what an we do to have some fun?" asked Mister Mlnky, jumping up. “Let's ail catch hold of hands and run down to the rubier river and bounce on the springing board,”’ suggested Rag gedy Andy.

Soon the two Raggedys and Mister Minky were running and laughing and shouting at the top of their voices. “Whoa!'’ said Raggedy Ann as she pulled back on Mister Minky's hand. “What is this—a swamp? We almost ran right into it.” There before them was n place abont as large as your front yard and it looked like it was a queer kind of mud. All around the edges of the place were white things growing up short stems. Rag gedy Ann, Raggedy Andy and Mister •Mlnky walked up to the place and saw that tne white things were slices of bread. "Why, it’s bread and butter!” cried Raggedy Ann. “And here are knives and forks stuck In the side of the bank.” said Mister Mlnky. “And the mud is Apple Butter,” criei Raggedy Andy as be took a knife and spread a slice of bread with the Apple Butter. “Just you try that.

Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy winked at each other, for it made them very happy, now that Mister Slinky was be ginning to be happy himself.
