‘JAKE’ PARALYSIS BLAME
LAID TO CHEMICAL
USED IN LACQUER
-WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—A taste-
less, odorless compound, generally
«sed in the lacquer and leather in-
dustries, is responsible, in the opin-
ion of government chemists, for the
thousands of cases of paralysis that
followed the drinking of ginger con-
coctions.
The bureau of industrial alcohol an-
nounced that the “strange poison” is
i “Ortho-Tri-Cresyl : Phosphate” and
that the “Ortho-Tri-Cresyl” alone
caused the paralysis which has been
.particularly serious in the South and * i * * * * * 7 * 1

j The recommendation of the national
crime investigating commission that
payrolls be met with checks instead
of cash may be good advice. But it
j merely recognizes a deplorable con-
; dition and offers no remedy for that
j condition. The streets are filled with
S robbers who may forcibly seize the
I money en route to the place of pay-
! ment. No quantity of money is safe
on the average American street. Pre-
vent a robbery by issuing checks. This
is the sum of the commission’s rec-
ommendations.
Use checks, indeed. But for how
long? Until next year? For 10 years?
Indefinitely. In the meantime crime
runs rampant, violence is unchecked,
bandits are unapprehended. There is
no suggestion of how the criminals
may be run down, punished, discour-
aged. There is no promise that check
payments may be discontinued once
such payments have been begun. There
is no suggestion of ways and means
to kill the evil complained of and thus
officially recognized. Nothing is sug-
gested but a way to side-step the
commission of a felony.
It may be good advice, excellent ad-
vice. But it conveys no promise of
immunity from continued danger. It
has no cure to offer, no palliative to
apply. It concedes that America is
alive with desperate criminals, that
there is no known way of curbing
those criminals. It merely undertakes
to teach the public how crime may
be circumvented occasionally. Not a
very reassuring report.
What the country needs is a real
and permanent cure. How can the
streets of our cities be made safe
for ligitimate business? How can des-
perate criminals be imprisoned and the
criminal class exterminated ? How can
lawless men be taught to fear the
laws and penalties of their country?
How can the country be made safe
for the law abiding? This is what, the
country wants to know.—The Daily
Oklahoman.

SUCCESS
We often hear people speak of one’s
success by the amount of money he
might have or numbers of cattle,
sheep, goats or acres of land he owns.
There are other ways to measure one’s
success in life.
You will find old men who look as
though they have faded into a worth-
less life who might be financially de-
pendent upon their children for sus-
tenance, yet these old gentlemen in
their dotage have probably given,
more to civilization than many others
who are financially independent. We
cannot call them failures.
For no other .reason we should have
respect for old age, for we are likely
to live to see the time we will be in
our dotage. A kind word to these old
men will cheer them and make them
feel as if someone cares for thenr.
Success is not altogether worldly
wealth or honor. It is far more com-
mendable for a person who has giv-
en sons and daughters to humanity
than for one to die a rich man leaving
nothing to his name after he has pass-
ed on.—Exchange.

BELTON, Aug. 28.—Burglaries
which have been going on in Temple,
Cameron, Waco, San Saba and Lam-
pasas, were thought to be cleared up
today with the arresting of two boys
who gave their ages as 16 and 18
years.
Business houses in the various
towns have been entered and robbed
from time to time during the last
month. The arrests were made by
Deputy Sheriff O. W. Odom.
Thursday morning while investigat-
ing the burglary of the Bell County
Battery station which occurred early
Wednesday night, Officer Odom be-
came suspicious of the words and ac-
! tions of a boy who was present. He
had noticed that in making hasty exit
through a rear window the burglar
had stepped in a pan of old lubricat-
ing oil and left a clear track.
He asked the boy to take a ride
with him and when he had gotten
away from the building he examined
his shoe and found the nail holes in
the rubber heel were ' clogged with
grease. He then compared the shoes
with the track and found it fit ex-
actly.
After almost a day of questioning
the boy finally confessed to 21 pre-
vious burglaries and implicated the
other boy. Two cash registers were
rifled in the burglary Wednesday
night, $1 being taken from the Bell
County Battery station cash box and
$7 from the cash register of the Bob
Bigham Filling station which is
housed in the same building.
Automobile parts, cash, watches,
guns and other things were taken
from 21 different places in the: towns
named, according to a written con-
fession made to District Attorney
Henry Taylor on Thursday night.
Charges will be filed in justice court,
according to officers.
The following were the places burg-
larized according to the confessions:
At Temple the filling station at the
corner of Third and French, three
stations on Avenue G, one at Twenty-
fifth streets and the Newby Filliing
station on the Belton pike and Fifty-
third street.
At the Cameron the Chevrolet house
and three filling stations. A filling
station at Buckholts where nothing
but an old pistol was taken.
At San Saba the ice plant, a tailor
shop and a grocery.
At Lampasas a hardware store and
two filling stations.
At Waco a harness shop, root beer
stand, ice plant and a clothing stoi’e.
Charges will be filed early Friday
morning.
NO TIME
One of the commonest excuses we
hear is, “I haven’t time.” But almost
everyobody has time. If you really
want a thing, if you have ambition
to do it there is plenty of time. Prob-
ably the average fellow doesn’t really
use more than half of his working
time. If you want to do a thing, just
make use of the time you waste
thinking up the excuse not to or the
time you spend looking out of the
window, or the time you spend wish-
ing you didn’t have to work. Don’t
kid yourselves—you have plenty of
time for everything you really want
to do.—Exchange.
