LOOK
OUT FOR CARBON
MONOXIDE
An indecent literary expos-
ure is New England results in
frostbite.—E. A. Hooton.
We have seldom heard oi a
more distressing accident than
■the death of nine Dartmouth
students and their pet doc, as
they were sleeping peacefully
in their fraternity club house
on the college campus. Some-
thing went wrong with the
furnace, and they were lolled
in their sleep, everyone who
was in the buildiiig, by the
deadly carbon monoxide gas.
This is a form of poisoning
which is becoming much too
common. More than 69,000
person? were killed laat year
by carbon monoxide. Some
were overcome while in their
ears, left running in closed
garages. Many died from
[sleeping in closed rooms with
a gas fire going. There were
comparatively few who met I
their death from the gases es-
caping from a furnace, as in
the Dartmouth case, but
enough to make it seem de-
sirable to utter a warning to
everybody who depends upon
coal stoves or coal furnaces to
look to their heating plants.
Many people have the idea'
that they can always smell the1
gas in time to open a door or
[window. And many have met
their deaths because they did
not realize that the poisonous
carbon monoxide which is
given oil whenever coal or
petroleum products are burn-:
ed, is odorless. Its presence
cannot be detected by the
noee. The unpleasant odor of5
coal-gas or the exhaust fumes
of an automobile misleads folk
into think that unless they
smell something there is no
danger.
Nobody cau smell carbon
■monoxide. There is no warn-
ing bat the sudden collapse
and speedy death of the vic-
tim. Most of these deaths oc-
cur in winter, when furnaces
are being forced and windows
are kept closed, when it seems
to be easier to start up the car
before opening the garage
doors. There is only one way
to prevent it, and that is never
spaee unless there is a door or
window wide open; never to
enter or sleep in a room or a
house unless certain that the
furnace flues are properly
working and the deeping room
is well ventilated.
If found soon enough after
collapse, many victims can be
revived by medical means, but
this aid seldom comes quick-
ly enough.
TODAY-«nd
NAZI.....
I spent several hours the
other evening with an old
friend, an American citizen
who has lived for many years
in Germany.
"What is at the bottom of
this revolutionary movement
in Germany?” I asked him.
His answer was prompt and
concise.
“The Treaty of Versailles,
he replied. "The German peo-
ple feel that they have been
placed in a position of inferior-
ity ever since the w; r. They
are a proud people. They be-
lieve themselves superior to all
other peoples. The present
generation refuses to pay the
price which its parents accept-
ed to end the war. It took only
shrewd leadership and an ap-
peal to patriotic pride to
arouse them to a new sense of
nationalism. Everybody in
Germany is in uniform. The
military spirit is being culti-
vated. When the right time
comes there will be another
war unless the nations whom
Germany regards as its ene-
mies yield their rights under
the Versailles treaty.”
Other observers have told
me the same thing. I think they
are probably right. But 1 also
think that the United States
will not itaelf be drawn into
another European
• • •
GOATS......I
"What is the motive behind
the anti-Jewish activity of the
Nazis?” I asked my friend.
“What was the motive be-
hind the anti-Hoover activity
in America?” he countered,
“The people were in trouble
mid they needed a scape-goat.
It was easy for people to lay
the blame for everything on
him.
“Just so the Nazi movement
needed a goat Why not the
Jews? They were not numer-
ous enough-to set up serious
resistance, only two per cent
of the population; hot they
were the bankers, merchants,
industrialists, against whom it
ie always easy to stir up the
populace of any nation. Noth-
ing is easier than to arouse the
poor and the lazy against the
well-to-do and the industrious.
“So Hitler and his aides
made the Jews the scapegoats
for Germany's troubles. It
makes no difference that the
German Jews have for cen-
turies been more patriotically
and devoutly German than the
Germans themselves. The ap-
peal was to the ignorant
masses, and the Jew had to
suffer.”
I may be wrong, but I
imagine it will not be easy for
Germany to finance its next
war.

RELIGION . ,.....revised
One of the amazing things
nqy friend told me was that the
, _ . “ “eveJ German people are openly
to run a ear in an enclosed absndonin| Christianity; not
all of them, .but the element
which is strongest in support
of the Nazi program.
“The children are being
taught to believe in the old
gods of Valhalla, in the an-
cient Teutonic myths instead
of the Bible.” he said. The
very next day I read a dis-
patch from Berlin giving the
text of a new version of the
87th Psalm, which has been
amended by a Nazi leader so
that it begins: “The Lord
loveth the height of Germany
more than all the dwellings
abroad.”
In the preface to this “re-
vised Version” it is asserted
that the Biblical story of Christ
must be wrong, because it rep-
You cannot build a town on
the qniet. easy .go plan. ft
takes boosting, planning, ac-
tion. and definite cooperation
on the part of all citizens. A
town does not stand still; a
either goes forward or back-
ward.

I got an entirely new idea
of what is happening in Ger-
many. It is not a pleasant pic-
ture.
THRIFT........two ideas
The outstanding example of
thrift in modern times, it
seems t ome, is the case of
Emily Smith. Mas Smith spent
her lifetime in charge of
Hampton Court Maze in Lon-
don, a famous labyrinth of
hedges in which a visitor can
wander for hours and not find
either the center or the way
out.
Miss Smith’s fees for each
visitor to the Maze was one
penny—two cents. She died
the other day and left an es-
tate valued at $250,000.
Anybody can accumulate
money by spending less than
his intake. Few reatfee that
it is harder to keep money
than to get it.

STAMPS.....a* investment
Like thousands of other
boys, I began stamp collecting
when I was ten or eleven years
old. 1 traded my collection
for a rifle, and nearly fifty
years later one set of an can-
celled U. S. Departmental
stamps which I bad owned
sold for $30,000.
I west the other day to as
international exhibition of
postage stamps. Nobody in the
world, I believe, possesses an
absolutely complete set of ail
the adhesive stamps ever prat-
ed. King George of England
has the largest collection, but
President Roosevelt’s is also a
very fine and complete one.
Many stamp collections are
valued at hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars. -
If I were twenty again, and
had as much sense as I have
acquired since that age, I
wqiild put my spare change
into postage stamps, collecting
judiciously. specializing in
some particular clan or kind
of stamps, with the certainty
that for every dollar invested
now I could get a hundred
dollars or more forty years
from now.
