Enginers like it; it breaks the monotony of their jobs. Always pass the car ahead on curves or turns. Don't use your horn, it may unnerve the other fellow and cause him to turn out too far. Demand half the road the middle half. Insist upon your rights. Always speed; it shows people you are a man of pep even though an amateur driver. Never stop, look or listen at rail road crossings. It consumes time. Drive confidently, just as though there were eighteen million other cars in service. Always 1 ock your brakes when skidding. It makes the job more artistic. Always pass cars on hills. It shows you have more power; and you can turn out if you meet a car at the top. In sloppy weather drive close tc pedestrains. Dry cleaners appreciate it. Never look around when you back up. There is never anything behind you. BOWLING ALLEY OPENS From Saturdays Dally Last evening the Chaloupka bowl ing alley, situated in the building just east of the Journal office, open ed for business and the ancient and honorable game of bowling is again a part of the amusement features of the city. There is a great fascination about this sport that comes down from the old days when even the worthy burg ers of New York at the time of the first Dutch settlements in this coun try were wont to enjoy. Several bowling teams are being planned among the societies, the dif ferent groups over the city and who will hold their regular contests at the Chaloupka alleys in the future. A group of the'ladies of the city are also planning to start several teams and hue a Liiies" uiit at the $lUy v. escaped knowing about it. One word of vigorous protest from him or any other responsible ocicial wouM have prevented the issuance of this order. Quotes Fall Statement. "Fall's official statement to Presi dent Harding regarding these leases that 'they have been reported and discussed from time to time both pri vately with yourself and in your cab inet appears to show conclusively that every member of that cabinet must have known about them long before the contracts were actually signed. If Fall's statement was not true, why was it not denied by some member of the Harding cabinet when it was made more than six years ago? "I do not mean to insinuate," Sen ator Norris interjected, "that Hoover or any other member of the cabinet knew that Fall was being bribed. I do not believe they did. But know ledge of this corruption does not seem to me to be the essential point. "The transfer of the oil reserves to Fall's custody and the leasing of them to Sinclair and Doheny with out competitive bidding was illegal and a betrayal of the public trust even if Fall had not received a single penny. "During all the weary grind of the long investigation which has dragged out, bit by bit, the truth about these transactions,, Mr. Hoover has never, up to this time, said one word directly in condemnation of the disgraceful crime that was com mitted against the American people. In his acceptance speech he de nounced corruption in general and said that it touched both parties. Put he has not directly condemned either the crime or those who were respon sible for it. "In view of the recent disclosures Indicating that he must have known something about these leases before they were made, I do not see how he can longer remain silent." ! World-Herald.
