Some New Fiction
By Anne M. Farrell
Hearl of Fiction Department, Public Library
THE most extraordinan- novel of
the past year is the wideh' dis-
cussed. "All Quiet on the Western
Front'' by Erich Maria Remarque.
This young man. still in his early
thirties, has produced a noteworthy
picture of the war as experienced by
himself and his friends. In a simple
manner, without any effort at literary
style, he attempts to portray the suffer-
ings and hardships of the younger
fighting men, plunged into the mael-
strom of a war with which they had
little sympathy and less understanding.
Big Sale in Germany
In Germany alone, under the orig-
inal title. "Im A\'esten Xichts Neues."'
more than 400.000 copies were sold,
and since its translation into English
the popularity of the book has been
tremendous both in Ainerica and Eng-
land.
\'ery different is the new novel by
Gerald Bullett, "The History of Egg
Pandervil." Egg is a grocer, outwardly
prosaic, genial and placid, but with the
genius of a poet lurking beneath his
placid exterior. Egg's family is all
grown up, all that is. but the little
Nick)-, who was somewhat of an after-
thought in the scheme of the house of
Pandersil. Nicky thinks his father a
ver)- brave man. indeed, a genius who
can tell the most amazing stories. And
as Egg puffs out his little flat chest he
is for the moment, to himself at least.
a person of huge importance. Of this
most interesting book. G. P>. Stern
sav-
"Egg Pandervil is an intensely
real book, so real that you can hardly
bear its beauty and its pain and its
laughter."
"Steel Chips"
Idwal Jones, erstwhile San Fran-
cisco newspapemian. is the author of
an unusually well written stor>-. "Steel
Chips." With the machine age as a
background. Jones gives a gripping
picture of one Bram Dartnell. who
lives and loves and makes machinery.
There is no attempt to portray mis-
understood genius striving for heights
unattainable, for Bram is satisfied with
his little world, bounded as it is on all
sides by the Atlas Iron Works. A well
turned bit of machinef}- moves him to
verbal heights, and his vearning love
ANNE M. FARRELL
for Bertha, who afterwards becomes
his wife, is told with color and re-
straint.
One of the most entertaining detec-
tive stories of the year is Dashiell
Hammet's "The Dain Curse." Surpris-
ingly different from the average tale
of mystery, this breath-taking adven-
ture holds the reader's interest until
the very last page.
Since mystery and detective stories
still hold the vote for popularity, the
mention of a few of the newer thrillers
is not amiss : "The Five Flamboys'' by
Francis P.eeding. intrigue and diplo-
macy, with the added attraction of an
abducted boy king: "The Jefferson
Secret,'' extraordinary ! a mystery
without the usual murder; Anthony
Wynne's "The Fourth Finger," -s-sh.
Watson, — a finger of the left hand is
missing ; and once again our friend
Bulldog Dnunniond is with us, bat-
tling as usual in "Temple Tower." The
author is H. C. McNeile, the English-
man who used to sign his novels,
"Sapper.''
Adventure has not been entirely
neglected in this day of clue hunting,
for Hal Ci. Evarts is .still faithful to
his action-loving public, and romance
and daring meet in "Tomahawk
Rights." a fascinating story in the days
of Daniel Boone, with enough Indian
fights and captured white folks to
intrigue even the most sophistocated
reader.

By Sister Susie
DAN AND BETSY FLANAGAN
SISTER SUSIE apologizes for the
long lapse. She knows you have
missed her. but then one can always
come back in spite of standardization.
What do you think ? A new arrival
in the Bureau of Supplies I Betsy
Flanagan. She is a direct descendeiu
of old Mr. Lincoln himself, only her
mother knew Mr. Ford.
You know Dan : Well, he was al-
wavs much on the originality, and he
gets fads — once it was canaries — ^then
he took up golf. He is still taking that
up, when he can get signed up ; but
now the last word in fads — he's taken
up motoring and little Bets\- Flanagan,
blue-eyed and bashful, reposes grace-
fully on McAllister street daily, while
Dan passes out the information over
the counter about stationer)- and all
that stuff. Then, when work is over,
Dan hies himself hither and thither
in the flivver.
Up to date. Betsy is shiny and un-
touched, but then Dan is careful and
does not want to mar the fenders or
what will you.
Strange to us. that only the "me-
ihanic" accompanies our Dan on his
outings, hut then there is hope for us
girls — only who is the "mechanic" r
Huckleberry F"inn is on his annual
vacation. It started verlially three
weeks ago. hut HucV did not leave until
the thirteenth, and for a change he is
going to Skaggs. Dan expects to call
on him some week end to ask him
about the additional copies of the
Charter.

High Cost of Accidents
By Ray W. Taylor
Claim Adjuster, Municipal Street Railway
WITH the view to cutting down
the number of accidents on the
Municipal Railway, and incidentally
reducing the heavy cost of settling
them, the Claim Department is now
engaged in tabulating the number of
accidents each motorman has had dur-
ing the last three years, and also how
much those with the highest accident
rates have cost the City during this
period.
Accident Prevention
While systematic work and courte-
ous treatment can help materially to
cut down the cost of adjusting per-
sonal injury claims, the fact remains
that the prevention of accidents cannot
be overlooked. A cursory analysis of
the individual records kept in this of-
fice of every motorman shows that a
very large percentage has a low acci-
dent rate. On the other hand, there
is, apparently, a small minority that,
for one reason or another, is responsi-
ble for more than its share and is a
heavy draft on the finances of the
road.
RAY W. TAYLOR
It is to determine just who these
men are, and to see what can be done
to reform their method of operation,
that the investigation is being made.
It is prefectly apparent that this fea-
ture becomes a very important factor
if any etTort is to be made toward an
economical administration of this de-
partment. "An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure" can be
translated into hundreds of thousands
of dollars in a period of a few years.
If the record should disclose that any
one man has cost the Railway $30,000,
$40,000, or $50,000 in a series of acci-
dents, it is the height of folly to over-
look such a leak in a general effort to
keep down the cost of settling accident
claims.
Siich a record as is now being pre-
pared, it is hoped, will point the way
to an intelligent effort to make a very
material reduction not only in the
number of accidents but, as will nat-
urally follow, the burden of paying
heavy damages to those injured.
Comparative Statement
A comparative statement of the cost
of this department for the first six
months of the last four years together
with the number of accident reports,
follows ;
1926
Number of Accidents 1,434
Cost of Department $57,753
1927
1,458
$37,955
1928 1929

claims for this period is the lowest
since 1926. It is also well within the
2^ per cent of the gross receipts
allowed by the Board of Supervisors
for this purpose. Rougly, the amount
set aside for claim adjustments has
been $87,500 a year.
While, owing to increasing traffic
congestion, it might be expected that
the number of accidents naturally
would increase, the Boston Elevated
Railway during 1928 was able to bring
about a very material reduction in all
classes of accidents and the cost of
settling claims to less than 2 per cent
of the gross revenues.
Conditions surrounding the Boston
Elevated Railway unquestionably dif-
fer from those obtaining in this city,
but the 2 per cent mark is one to shoot
at. and with the hearty cooperation of
the operating department it may be
possible to demonstrate that the Mu-
nicipal Railway of this city can be op-
erated as free from accidents and the
claims adjusted as at low a cost as any
street railway in the country.
HIS FIRST NAME IS PAINLESS
EVERYBODY
has heard
in San Francisco
of Dr. Painless
Parker, dentist. But manj' people
don't know that "Painless" is his
real, honest-to-goodness legal first
name. His parents named him
"Edgar Randolph" Parker, but Su-
perior Judge Griffin, right here in
San Francisco, changed his legal
name to Painless Parker, the name
by which he is known to millions of
Americans.
Dr. Parker is regarded as the
originator of "painless" dentistry, as
he has been practicing it for thirty-
five years, and the dental profession
as a whole has only begun to adopt
it in recent years. Parker has been
denounced, decried, derided a n d
scoffed more than any other cru-
sader for a new idea in the history
of the country. Yet out of the
tumult and turmoil he has emerged
triumphant as the originator of a
system used in nation-wide groups
of dental offices, bound together by
Parker ideals and principles, which
collectively is the largest organiza-
tion of its kind in the world. There
are sixteen groups of dentists using
the E. R. Parker System in Califor-
nia alone, of which three are in San
Francisco. Parker's own permanent
home is here.
PENSION AWARDS
The Board of Fire Commissioners
on .\ugust 12 awarded to Mrs. Charles
^ladison and Mrs. Mary Derham a
monthly pension of $100, in accord-
ance with the recent amendment to
the Charter which provides for the
pensioning of widows of firemen
killed in line of duty prior to 1900.
Charles Madison was killed on June
7, 1893. at a fire at Ashburv and Page
streets. On April 5, 1898, William
Derham fell from a ladder at the
"cracker box" fire, Broadway and Bat-
tery street. He died the next day.
Both fires are well remembered by
many old-timers in the Fire Depart-
ment.
Attorney Joseph Edward Connolly
appeared as counsel for Mrs. Madison
and Mrs. Derham.
