This will make it possible to stage two holdups at the same intersection. Selecting Life Jobs What Vocation to choose and how to get a job thai will lead in the desired direction are two questions that 'puzzle most college and high school students. there is serious-niindedness in student life is attested by-the thought given at the beginning of the school year to thest problems. Student employment offices in many colleges and universities find part-time work and vacation jobs for students, but little or no attempt is made to guide students in THE SELECTION OF A VOCATION or to get them started on a road that will lead to something better. Any observant teacher is qualified to advise students in the matter of choosing a life work.

Who knows bettei the capabilities, propensities, ambitions and genius, if any of young men and women? Few parents know them Well. Impetuous, inexperienced and imaginative young peo pie certainly, are NOT THE BEST FITTED TO DECIDF what their undertakings after graduation should, be, i their own' BEST interests' and those of society and civiliza tion are to be served. This does not mean that youtl should be compelled to do something it has no taste foi nor that it is to be denied the opportunity of determininr its own destiny. Persuasion will get around this.

Rural Routes When One- considers the few rural routes running out from the Hamilton is difficult to realize that there are 43,840 such rural free delivery routes throughout the United States, with a total length of 1,316,000 miles over which 43,724 carriers travel a total of 398,444,000 miles, each year, says a state highway bulletin. The average length of routes is'30 miles, but they range as low as six and as high as 75 miles. A'large majority of the carriers use motor transportation, they operate on a government allowance of four cents pet mile. Tho post office department spends $15,000,000 annually for this mileage.

In addition, lliS78 star 'routes are maintained for the transportation mail. be' twoen way points. A considerable increase in -the number of star rdlites the past year is attributed to suspension of service oh railroad branch lines. The routes are operated privately, and the mall contracts are given to the low bidders. Rural free delivery service also is given by.1,213 star routes.

The appropriation fo'i'Vstar' route for 1930 is $14,560,000. The cost of operation has increased from 11.99 cents per mile in 1928 to cents this year. Quite a contrast is offered between the 2 cent cost of opeVating a star route and the four cent allowance for rural can'iers.

RHODES APPLICATIONS Invents jLtecalled! 20 YEARS AGO TODAY A Border Without A Fort A bright spot in the present posture of our relations with the British is found along tho Canadian border.

Attention is frequently called to that immense frontier without a soldier or a fort on either side. Canadians and the people of the United States havo demonstrated the fact that they are safer and happier WITHOUT ARMAMENTS AND WITHOUT PROBLEMS which inevitably go with them. It is 'a condition that depends absolutely upon the maintenance of mutual confidence. As long as each nation believes that the other is pretty decent and, on the whole, reasonable, it will be patently silly to fortify the international line. Both countries have, in the past, been most decent and tolerant toward each other and neither, at this late day, should do anything to spoil the record.

For instance, the declaration of Senator Reed Smoot that increases in tariff rates are not reflected by corresponding increases in prices to the consumer. The Utah senator came out badly in his controversy with Representative Mary T. Norton, of New Jersey, who presented in some detail, what the proposed tariff represented in HARDSHIP TO THE 8,500,000 WOMEN WAGE-EARNERS of the country, and asked Smoot who for example, was going to pay the twenty per cent duly on shoes, if the women who bought shoes did not have to do it? Commenting on Mrs.

Norton's argument with Senator Smoo't, the New York World says: "This will be ONLY A SMALL PART OF THEIR BURDEN. If the Smoot-Hawley bill becomes a law the women folk will encounter new tariff taxes in every nook and corner of their homes. Bed-covering, rugs, linoleum, toothbrushes, hairbrushes, mirrors, umbrellas, clothes cabinets; practically every article of wearing apparel from shoes lo hat and gloves; many of the materials which go into the construction of the home itself, will become subject to higher duties.

Southern politicians, a 1 keenly alert for judicial "pork," looking forward hopefully annual meeting of the senior federal circuit judges just before the United States supremo court's fall term opens early in October.

During tho fiscal year which ended June 30, 192S, when federal district courts in many northern states were swamped i litigation, and conditions in many districts, par tieularly New York, approached demoralization, ten southern federal judges found so littlo to do II their own districts they were able to oloso their courts and accept tern, porory assignments to sit in northern districts. Assignments Agrecablo To Southern Judges The assignments ore much sought flcr by southern judges and thoso Delected, usually because- of their reputation as bono drys, escape tho fresuently almost unbearable summer heat of their homo districts, receive substantial expense allowances for the "vacation" assignment, ond achieve national fame Because of tho severity of sentences imposed in prohibition cases which form the bulk of the dockets before them.

Tho college as the principal in- stittmon of learning came early to Ohio but was preceded by the newt- paper, admittedly on institution that has much to do Kith the education of the people. In was in 1804 that Ohio university at Athens, the first college to be established northwest of the Ohio river, wos founded, and five years later Miami was established at Oxford, but in 1793 William Maxwell established at Cincinnati his "Centinel of the Northwest." This was tho first newspaper published northwest of tho Ohio river, and crude and inadequate it wos its establishment a a notable event.

Seven yeara later Nathaniel P. Willis established. Tho Scioto Gazette at Chillicothe. In 1S11 the Western Intelligencer was founded at Worthington, and when the first cabins of tho new state, capital began to appear at Columbus its owners moved physical plant of the Intelligencer that city ond changed its name to "The Ohio State Journal," which has been published continuously under that name over since. So little news, ond that little so old, ond so much expression of opinion marks these first newspapers that ono familiar with tho modern newspapers wonders how tho pioneers could have been satisfied with what they were supplied.

But literary matter and editorial opinion constituted the bulk of the typical early day newspaper. Papers of these early days printed without apology European news almost three months old. News from New York not more than 15 days Old was regarded os fresh. Most of these early journalistic adventures survive in ono form or another, and Ohio ranks fourth in the number of newspapers published, is sold to have more newspapers in proportion to Ha population than any other state.
