NOVEL METHOD USED ON CALIFORNIA ROADS Montreal, July 26.--One way to make a person behave is to make his mis- behaviour conspicuous. On this theory a plan is to be tried in California of sounding the horn thrice when one ob- serves another driver in reckless dis- regard of law and common safety. Three toots of the horn are sup- posed to mean, "Stop that, guy!" It is hoped that this will make the reckless driver ashamed of himself. Perhaps he was not aware that he was doing wrong. Traffic cops say most drivers on being stopped declare they did not realize they were speeding. If the fellow does not give heed, other drivers are supposed to take up the three-toot cry and the supposition 1s that the offender will fear that the police will hear it and interpret it as meaning: "Stop that guy!" Same words, just 2 comma left out.

W. J. Pape, second vice-president of the Associated Press, presented a paper on the news situation in the Orient; Manton Davis, Assistant General At- torney of the Radio Corporation of America, discussed difficulties in the path of the radio communication. Criticism was levelled by the United States representatives at the British monopoly of cable services across the Pacific. WILD RAM AT LARGE 7 YEARS Kentish Hunters Defied -- Bullet Ends Animal's Adventures London, July 26.--The story of Pat- riarch, now dead, the aged Barbary ram who for seven years roamed Kent defying would-be captors, has been re- lated by his owner, H. G. Tyrwhitt- Drake, of Maidstone. : "Peppering at Patriarch was quite a sport among the farmers in the dis- trict," said Mr. Tyrwhitt-Drake. "I have just been told that it took a bul- let to put him out. Pellets from shot- guns, apparently, did not worry him. Isn't it wonderful that a wild animal should live in one of the Home Coun- ties of England, chased and badgered by human enemies, and yet able to stick it for seven years? He did no harm; it is a pity that he is no more. "I bought Patriarch from Sir Ed- ward Loder, of Leonardslee, Horsham, and he was the leading ram of a flock of Barbary sheep which roamed the park. I only had him seven days and put him in an ordinary loose box seven feet high. He jumped out of that and made for the hills behind our house, Toptree Manor, Maidstone. Those hills are high and of chalk, and extend for many miles. They are just above the old Pilgrim's Way. "Patriarch has lived in those hills ever since, working his way from Cob- ham (Lord Darnley"s) almost to Sit- tingbourne, ten or fifteen miles. A friend of mine has shooting on those hills, and when the heaters have been driving for him they have often seen this ram going hy, they say, like a steam roller. "Although only three feet high, he was six feet in length, and had a big and powerful head of horns. He would simply crash through woods, and noth- ing seemed to stop him. : "Patriarch existed on a diet of leaves | principally, but sometimes he would | have a meal from the sheep troughs by way of a luxury. Being of the goat tribe, he never molested the sheep. I'hey must have regarded him as an Ishmael. "I offered a reward of £5 for Pat- riarch, but, knowing the old fellow, I stipulated that he should be delivered to me in a building or enclosed place. After all, he cost me £15. He gallant- ly saved me the reward money." The whole family enjoys ek tre quickly or for any meal pre or SACCO AND VANZETTI FACE GOV- ERNOR FULLER IN LONG INTERVIEW Boston, July 26.--For the first time Nicolai Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti last Saturday faced the man upon whose word their lives depended. Governor Alvan 1. kuller, now al- most ready to hand down the decision which will either consign them to an ignoble death or set them free, visited the grim state prison and talked with the condemned men for nearly two hours. ; ; Vanzetti was with the Governor in the Warden's oftice for an hour. What was said in that time those outside could only conjecture, but that the in- terview was stormy was evident from the Governor's abrupt manner and Vanzetti's downcast demeanor after it was over, Refusing their supper again last aight the men maintained the hunger strike which they began Sunday morn- ing in protest over secrecy, enveloping the Governor's personal review of their trial and conviction.
