hermit ..rab Is his curious habit of
living in the shell of dead mollusks.
His motive Is to protect his hind-body.
The fore part of his anatomy Is cov-
ered with a thick, horny crust. His
abdomen Is soft and invested with a
delicate membrane. The slightest rup-
ture or abrasion to this abdomen cov-
ering is almost certain to be fatal.
With Its belly, the hermit crab holds
on to its portable home. Occasionally
It will change one acquired shell for
another. When exchanging shells it
must act with utmost caution and dis-
patch lest it be harmed by some en-
emy who may be lurking near.
This exchange Is often made at the
mere whim of the animal, but after
ench moulting Is compelled to find a
larger home to accommodate Its grow-
ing body.

AUTOISTS BLIND
TO ALL DANGERS
Eight Out of Ten Drivers Will
Completely Ignore Perils at
Railway Crossings.
AUTOMOBILES RUN INTO TRAIN
Chicago Safety Council Is Striving to
See to It That Accidents Are Not
More Frequent Than in
Other Sections.
“Eight out of every ten motorists
drive over railroad crossings without
looking either way for the approaclt
of a train, and one out of five railroad
crossing accidents is the result not
of train striking the automobile, but
of the automobile running into the
side of the train.”
The foregoing is the statement con-
tained in a pamphlet distributed to all
school children by the steam trans-
portation committee of the Chicago
Safety council, which Is functioning
the careful crossing campaign for the
American Railway association, says
the Chicago Daily News. Large
colored posters showing an impending
collision between a railroad train and
an automobile are also being placed
in the schools upon instruction of Su-
perintendent Peter A. Mortenson.
Hope All Will Heed.
“It Is hoped,” concludes the pam-
phlet, “that all children who hear or
see this message will carry It 1
wi-kv> r—
sible to prevent railway crossing
dents this summer. At the same
the rallroa<J employees will themselves
take every consistent action to mini-
mize casualties from this cause.”
The campaign of the railroads ex-
tending all over the United States and
Canada continues to September 30;
It is exciting unusual interest on the
part of motorists here and the Safety
council is striving to see to It that
Chicago’s record as to railway cross-
ing accidents during this period is at
'/east as favorable as that of other
sections of the country.
“If all concerned will co-operate in
our efforts,” said President William
Otter of the Safety council in discuss-
ing the situation, “we will substan-
tially avoid such accidents during the
summer months and thus save many
people from death or serious injury.
Public Interest Lax.
"It is obvious that up to this time
the general public is not pnying de-
served attention to the careful cross-
ing campaign, for our reports show
that a good many of sucli accidents
occurred over the week-end in Chi-
cago, and the surrounding territory. It
is difficult to believe that in the face
of this campnign motorists persist in
taking chances at railway crossings.
It isn’t so bad for the man driving the
machine to fail to appreciate the dan-
ger to himself involved in crossing
railway tracks, but surely he must
place great value upon the lives of the
people who ride with him. One is
almost forced to think that sometimes
he does not. The time has arrived
when we must all become aroused to
this situation and do our share in im-
proving it.”

You Auto Know
That In the case of a skid—
particularly one caused by the
slipping of the rear wheels,
rather than the front ones—the
worst possible thing to do Is to
apply the brakes. The amateur
drlve'r’s first impulse when any-
thing unforeseen hnppens is to
press down bard with both feet,
disengaging the clutch and at the
same time applying the full
force of the foot-brake. Tills
double action upon the rear
wheel only accentuates the skid
and causes him to have fur less
control of his car than If he had
kept his feet off either pedal.
The best course to take Is to
allow ttie car to coast, at the
same time attempting to steer
the cor in the same direction in
which the rear end of the car Is
skidding. Then. If it Is impera-
tive that the car be stopped to
avoid a collision, press the foot-
brake slowly und the car will
respond almost instantly. The
best possible preventive of skid-
ding, however, is care In driving
and a refusul to take chances on
wet pavements, especially when
turning a corner.

rated for Replacing Dam-
Without Clamping—Two
Satisfactory
Means of Lifting.
One of the frequent troubles experi-
enced with the light automobile Is
breaking of the front-spring leaves.
The driving illustrates methods that
facilitate the replacing or removal of
a broken leaf, und the assembly of
the Jbaves without clamping. The
leaved are assembled star-fashion, as
showji, about the center bolt. The
nut Is easily screwed on a thread or
two, after which the leaves are brought
into their proper position and the nut
tightened.
In lifting the car frame above the
axle, to remove or replace a spring,
two Jacks are placed, one on either
side, with their bases resting against
the axles, their heads resting under
the lamp brackets on each side. The
wheels are blocked so that they can-
not rock. This affords a quick method
of gifting, and one tliat gives a clear
working spuce. In cases where the
REPAIR GASOLINE FEED LINE
Temporary Job Is Readily Done by
Wrapping Tape Around Break
and Cover With Wire.
A temporary repair of the gasoline
feed line can be rendlly made. After
shutting off the gasoline nt the tank,
tape Is wrapped around the break nnd
for about two Indies on eacli side. A
In.ver of fine copper or other wire Is
then wound over the tape, making
sure that the winding Is tight, close
nnd even. Another layer or two of
tape Is then placed over the wire,
after which a few turns of wire are
wound over the tape to prevent It
from unwrapping.
Clean the Screen.

sediment collect here, and If the
screens are not cleansed at frequent
intervals, this foreign mutter may se-

Rene Viviani Wins a Personal Triumph
Bene Vlvlanl, former premier of
France, Is a socialist. During the
last hours of peace before the World
war, he ordered the withdrawal of
the French army by ten miles from
the frontier. For that he has been
criticized severely and his action has
been more or less of a cloud on his
recent political life.
This withdrawal order brought
about a sensational scene In the
French chamber the otlmr day. A
debate was on, provoked Dy the per-
slstent Communist campaign of cal-
umny against Premier Poincare for
alleged responsibility for bringing on
the war. Vlvlanl suddenly appeared
on the left side of the chamber, where
A be has rarely been seen for several
' JffiBpp* months.
‘‘If any Frenchman was respon-
jdtnfflglWJ WSr slide for what happened In 1014, It
IjffjljSffi."M * was I." lie cried. “At tlie moment of
the outbreak of the war I was the
responsible head of the government. Explanations should be demanded from
me, not from M. Polncnre. I gave the order to mobilize. I ordered the with-
drawal, so as to avoid any chance of conflict as long as possible.”
An outburst of patriotic enthusiasm followed. Poincare rushed up to
Vlvlanl and kissed him on both cheeks, Deputies embraced them both. Vlvi-
ani’s address had convinced the chamber that It was not France that willed
the war.

Water Leaking Into Cylinders.
C tollng water leaking Into the cylln-
of an engine may be the result of
a cAick In the cylinder wall or a poor-
ly fitting plug between cylinder head
and|water jacket which some engine*
poswss.
Here is a new photograph of Ben
W. Hooper, ehnirman of the United
States Railroad Labor board, who has
been prominent In the railroad labor
troubles. In addition to the public
group of three members there are the
labor nnd management groups of
three members each.
A section of the railroad act
passed by the Sixty-sixth congress
provides for this board, the members
of which are appointed by the pres-
ident, with the advice and consent of
the senate. The three groups named
above represent respectively the pub-
lic, the employees nnd subordinate
officials of the carriers, and the car-
riers.
The law provides, in brief, that
the labor board, under certain condi-
tions, shall hear any dispute involving
grievances, rules or working condi-
tions. All decisions of the labor
board shall establish rates of wages
and salaries and standards of working conditions which In the opinion of the
board are just and reasonable. The labor board determines whether any body
rlsdictlon^has violated its .decjglon and makes nubile. Its finding,
dMt Xiige decision musIWeconcurredln by at least lie members, of
whom one must be of the public. The board has the authority to summon
and Investigate. But the law grants the board no power to enforce its decrees.
Nevertheless, a decision by the board ’amounts to a decision by the gov-
ernment. It Is the official view that the board constitutes the one agency for
the expression of the government In matters of railroad wnges and industrial
relations.
Wilkerson Successor to Judge Landis
V
Do you remember the famous
Standard Oil rebating cases, in which
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis an-
nounced a fine of $29,000,000? Well,
the Assistant United States district
attorney who prosecuted those cases
was James H. Wilkerson, who has
now been appointed federal judge of
the Northern District of Illinois to
succeed Judge Landis.
The appointment, It Is reported,
was urged by both Bllnois senators,
McCormick and McKinley, and by the
Illinois Bar association. The appoint-
ment was distinctly satisfactory to
the Brundage-DIneen-Crowe faction—
the so-called regular Republican or-
ganization of Chicago. Objection to
the appointment, it is said, was made
to the President by the Sraall-Chicago
city hall faction.
Judge Wilkerson was born De-
cember 11, 1869, In Savannah, Mo. He
Is a graduate of De Pauw university
and began the practice of law in Chicago. He has long been before the public
ns county attorney of Cook county, member of the Illinois legislature, assist-
ant United States district attorney and district attorney and assistant to Attor-
ney General Brundage of Illinois. / ’

stitution making the declaration of
war impossible except by direct vote
of the people.
"The one great thing in the world
to me Is permanent peace, and I shall
work for It wherever I am,” she said.
Equally decided sentiments are expressed by Miss Belle Kearney of
Mississippi, who is a candidate to succeed Senator John Sharp Williams.
Mrs Leila Scott Edmondson of Alabama, Democratic candidate for the
house of representatives, has a platform along these lines.
Mrs. Brown (born Kennedy) la the widow of the late William G. Brown.
