HOW
TO KEEP
FROM GROWING OLD
Always drive fast out of alleys.
Always race with locomotives tc
crossings. 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." !
