The big lights should be dimmed as soon as the motorists see eaeh other coming, Mr. Perkins thinks, and should be turned on when the cars are about twenty feet from oneanother. At this distance the glare does not strike either driver and it enables each to see far enough ahead to avoid danger. "No driver needs his big lights when driving along Massachusetts street," said Mr. Perkins this morning, "and it seems to me that every one should turn out the strong lights when passing along this street." Venerable Will Stay Blaine Venerable, colored teacher, will stay.

That is the decision of the school board.

True the bacilli do not get into every wound, but they are liable to, and the formalin is death to them when early applied before they are taken up into the system.

The treatment may cause a little smarting for a few moments; but should you witness one fit of spasms from traumatic tetanus it will do you for a lifetime. One things should be remembered in applying formalin to wounds of the face, and that is to have the eyes closed and bandaged and the nostrils plugged up to avoid the pungent vapor of the formalin. It would be advisable to produce local anesthesia by hypodermic injection previous to applying the formalin, if it can be done without delay.

Stanford Beaten by Eight Feet in Ponghkeepsie Regatta Syracuse Is Poor Third and California Team Is Considered Gamest Crew In Race Poughkeepsie, N. June 29. In a triangular battle of blades unequalled in American rowing history, Cornell won the varsity four-mile race here late yesterday afternoon from Leland Stanford, by eight feet. Syracuse, exhausted by the struggle, slid over the line two lengths in front of the Columbia crew, which had wrested fourth place from Pennsylvania in the last mile of the great Hudson regatta. Stanford, represented on the Hudson for the first time, nearly 4,000 miles from home, and practically overlooked as contender in the predictions of experts, forced the Ithaca veterans, favorites in the betting, to a last effort of nerve and strength in order to win.

From the time Stroke Maurer, of Stanford, drove his blade into the water, Stanford was a factor in the struggle, and as the prow of the Cardinal shell crept up on the faltering Cornell oarsmen in the terrific drive at the finish, thousands were shrieking and cheeiing the far-western crew on. Stanford Crew a Surprise The Pacific coast crew, with but a few days' training on the Hudson, proved the greatest surprise of all and proved beyond question that while their rowing form and watermanship, might not be as finished as those of their eastern rivals, their gameness, power and endurance equ gameness, power, and edurance, equalled anything possessed by the crews that measured sweeps with them yesterday. The official time was caught as follows Cornell, 20:36 3-5 Stanford, 20:37 4-5; Syracuse, 20:43 4-5; Columbia, Pennsylvania, 21:10 1-5. Cornell Avon the junior varsity eight-oared two-mile race by two lengths, Pennsylvania was second and Columbia third. Syracuse won the freshman eight-oared shells two-mile race by six lengths.

Cornell was second. BOTTOM ROADS BAD Motorist Encounters Mud Near De Soto and Bonner Springs R. M. Morrison and son motored to Kansas City yesterday and report some bad roads. They went by way of Eudora and DeSoto and crossed the bridge across the Kaw to Bonner Springs.

After crossing the river they say the roads in the bottoms are almost impassable. One farmer is getting rieh by standing near the bad ntud holes with a team and pulling tourists out. He charges A price that is high enough to make him wealthy fast, motorists say, and if he can get business enough he will soon be buying a new farm. Mr. Morrison came back by way of Olathe and says that the upland roads are dry and hard.

Some of the' roads are hilly but on the whole they made fast time on the return trip in good time. The wheat in the bottoms is in bad shape, Mr. Morrison says, and the fields are almost too muddy for cutting, however, where the land is sandy the binders run along easily. THINKS WHEAT POOR Observer Says Lowland Grain Will Not Make One-Quarter Crop Mr. E.

L. Mason has just returned from an extended trip over the county on business for his firm. He reports that the crops in the county are. in bad shape and that the lowland wheat will not make more than one-fourth of a crop. The wheat along the Kaw bottom is better than that along the Wakarusa which was nearly destroyed by the floods.

Upland wheat, Mr. Mason thinks, will show a better jield though much of it was damaged by bugs. The yield will be spotted owing to the fact that some places escaped the insects, but will not average near as much as it should.

Metcalf, chairman cf the executive committee to promote the work of building the new Congregational Parish House and making other improvements, last evening appointed the building committee that will have charge of the undertaking.

The committee is composed of F. II. Smithmeyer, Prof. W. C.

McNown, Warren S. Wood, Ralph II. Spotts, and Mrs. H. E.

Tanner. This enterprise has been mentioned in general terms before by The Journal-World. As stated, it involves the expenditure of about $16,000 of which $15,000 will be for the erection of a parish house on the church premises. This building is to contain Sunday School rooms, a dining room and kitchen, and other apartments. An areaway is to be built around the entire church according to present plans.

Besides greatly improving the looks of the property it will permit the natural lighting and ventilation of the basement. The size of the parish house, its exact location, its cost, material, style of finish and other details will be determined by the above committee soon. The intention is to prosecute the work without any delay except what may be due to natural causes. SUCH IS WAY OF FAME W. J.

Bryan Forced To Spell Name When Calling On Carter Harrison Chicago, June 29. W. J. Bryan was obliged to repeat his name five time and then spell it, before his identity was recognized by whoever answered the telephone of Carter H. Harrison, former mayor of Chicago, yesterday.

The former secretary of state called Mr. Harrison's home, and on learning the former mayor was not there asked that he call Mr. Bryan on his return. "Yes. Bryan, answered Mr.

Bryan W. J. W. J. Bryan of Lincoln.

subcutaneously 1500 units antitetanic serum (Tetanus Antitoxin). "In no case should the wound be closed; it should be allowed to heal by granulation. The dressing and packing should be removed every day." Now remember that immediate treatment is required. Be prepared to give this. Then let there be no delay in calling the doctor.

Three years of active army experience has impressed upon my mind the soundness of the above deductions. About the most revolting death to witness is that from tetanus. In case clothing intervenes to protect the parts injured there is not so much danger, the infecting germs being removed. The danger then is mostly from after-impregnation. The bacillus causing the disease is present in surface soil and the dirt of foul locations.

It is said that in Belgium and France where the soil has been highly fertilized and cultivated for hundreds of years the germs are highly prevalent. Remember, a slight abrasion of the surface is all that is required for the entrance of the infecting bacillus. Don't bind up the wound before disinfecting.

The refining influence of war, seen in so many other directions, has not entirely overcome the little frauds of Parisian commerce.

American national independence has been established139 years, but the age of financial and economic independence for the average American is yet to be ushered in. To attain true independence you must personally declare it make a stand for it by saving and banking part of your money regularly. Just as in 1776, duty is the same, regardless of age.
