The man who just said to us: "Pardon me, but you are an Amer- ican, aren't you?" is a well-known confidence trickster; he is really to sell anything from a gold brick to a gold watch. And the women—why, just look at them. See how they walk, with the lithsome, swaying gracefulness of the East. Many of them, too, you can see, are not more than a generation away from Africa.

They seem pygmies next to those couple of upstanding Senegalese. Do you see how those Chinamen refuse to talk to the couple of Japanese sailors walking with those two Ara- bian girls; they are Arabian, even though they have abandoned every- thing, including their national cos- tumes.

The question that crowds itself to the front is: In what dis- tance can you come to a stop? The Department of Highways is doing some intelligent advertising on this point, and it is of the kind that deserves to be noted. A car going 35 miles per hour, it is pointed out, moves 513 feet every ten seconds; at 40 miles and 'hour, 587 feet every ten seconds, and at 50 miles an hour the rate is 735 feet in ten seconds, As the rate of a car increases, so does the distance in which it can be stopped, and it is the stopping -up business that is of chief concern for the moment. If your car is equipped with four- wheel brakes, and they are in aver- age condition, you should be able to come to a full stop in the following distances. At 85 miles an hour in 72 feet, A's 40 miles an hour in 95 feet. At 50 miles an•hour in 150 feet. Here's the point worth noticing: At 50 miles an hour it takes 108 per. cent more distance in which to stop than at 85 miles, although yotw speed has increased slightly less than 43 per cent.
