(Thorndale Champion)
A postal inspector of the Postoffice
Department was in Thorndale last
Thursday, Feb. 18, for the purpose of
going over and inspecting the new
proposed rural route, advocated and
started through the efforta of the
Thorndale Commercial Club. Chas.
Sailer, president of the local commer-
cial body accompanied the inspector
over the proposed route who seemed
very favorable towards recommend-
ing the serving of these additional
patrons, however, the inspector let It
be known that the government was
not establishing any new routes at
this time, but were consolidating as
many as . possible and making moto.^
routes out of them, thereby increasing
the mileage of the carriers as well as
a substantial increase in salary. Ths
inspector also recommended the re-
pairing: of several bad places over the

j The Art Exhibit scheduled for the
Granger Public Schools for March
J 15-19 will afford the students and lov-
! ers of good art in Granger a rare op-
l portunity to sec some productions of
j the world's famous masterpieces of
I art. More than 150 reproductions of
the finest types will be on exhibit,
some of them are in colors showing
the original colors and strokes of
the brush as they came from t^e art-
ist. Among the world's famous paint-
ings represented are the following
subjects:
"Mona Lijsa" by Da Vinvi, the orig-
inal painting now being in the Louvre
Pari^C and is said to be valued at
15,000,000.
"The Song of the Lark", by Jules
Breton, original now in the Art In-
stitute, Chicago.
"Hope", by George Frederick Watts
in Tate Gallery, London.
Every student in the Granger Pub-
lic Schools should arrange to see these
pictures while they are on exhibition
here. It will be an opportunity that
i is not always ours. One is not able
to see such pictures without making I
a special trip to a museum and other
places for this purpose. No home can
afford to have all these pictures be- j
cause of the great expense and num-
bers. In this day and time no one can
call himself even partly educated un-
less he is at least familiar with the
world's greatest masterpieces. All
our students whether art students or
not, or whether particularly interest-
ed in art or not, should take full ad-
vantage of this display to broaden
their knowledge and to develop this
phase of their education. These pv>
tures will be on display in the Art
Room and in Room Number 2 for
three full days beginning March 15.

Emerson's essay on Friendship is
full of beautiful and helpful thoughts.
But after all, its the friends one ac-
tually has, what they mean and what
they stand for, that really count in
one's life.
What sort of friend are you? Are
you a grouchy friend? One who
growls about this and growls about
that and growls about the other every
time you meet?
Are you a friend whose feelings
are so extremely sensitive that a
strong draught of air hurts them;,
who thinks your superior qualities
are not appreciated; who is always
imagining slights, and in whose
presence others walk as if treading
on egg shells?

REMEMBER
YoutH pays the heaviest toll in annual automobile fatalities. From five
to fifteen years Is the period when the greatest number of fatal accidents
occur, for both sexes. The chart shows the age distribution of automobile
deaths for men and women as given Ih tha latest mortality figures prepared
by the government. These figures, says the Stewart-Warner Safety Council
for the prevention of automobile aecldents, emphasise the need for more
playgrounds and Increased safety education among school children.
Complete statistics are not possible, as only 85 per cent of the United
States keeps mortality records. About 22,000 a year Is generally conceded to
ba the annual number of automobile fatalities. For 8,621 males known to have
been killed In one year there were only a third as many women, or 2,848, la
spite of the fact that the male population is only 4 per cent greater than the
female.
This chart does not take Into consideration the 060,000 Americans who
are Injured annually by automobiles. Such figures are not available except In
certain states, but that boys and girls again make up the bulk of such
casualtlea Is Indicated by the records of New York state kept for the first
nine months of 102B. Hera 11,788, or practically one-third of the 88,892
Injured, were under fifteen years of age.
