Southwest's Most Dreaded Spot, Death

for Trayelera.
Death valley, once the terror of
the traveler In the Southwest and the
last resting place of many early-day
prospectors, is being made safe for
travel both day and night.
This erstwhile- barrier to human
progress has been conquered by- the
automobile. Its trackless waste of'
sand has been sign-posted and its hid

Speaker Sweet said the other day
In the New York state legislature at
Albany:
Because an agitator gets a lot o$
newspaper space it does not necessa
rily mean that he. is a great roan.
Newspaper space may mean something
else. It reminds me of a story.
‘A rich man hired a comedian to
entertain the workers oo. his estate
one evening. The entertainment wa*
staged In the barn, and it went well,
almost too well. Tile comedian, la
fact, had hardly got under way when
the bam began to shake with shout*
of laughter. Soon the laughter became
so uproarious that the rich roan rose
and said:
“Friends, I know how dBfloult it le
to restrain our mirth whejn Mr. Back:
chat Is on the stage, but really, yon
know, If we don’t bold ourselves In
just a little the performance will hard
ly he over by midnight.’
“Then a burly plowman rose. In hi*
tnm.
“ ‘Excuse me, boss,’ he said; ‘It ain’t
Mr. Backchat we’re laughin’ at ,but
somebody left the door open and alt.

Talk of Americanizing New England
ring* oddly on American ears. If lhe
cradle of our country needs American
izing, where are we?
1 We think of Massachusetts as the
heart of New England. Among the
arutes it is “next to the oldest.” But
a . count of her present generation’s
parentage shows Massachusetts to he
almost The least American of the 48
stales, the World Outlook states.
The 1910 census discovered that only
32 per cent of Massachusetts folks
were native born of native parents.
More than 68 per cent were either for
eign born or were Lorn here of foreign
parents. Later figures would ba even
more astounding. The years that in-
ieyvene between 1910 and the outbreak
of the war saw the greatest influx of
immigrants the country has ever
known.
