crowd ever seen at Moanalua. and the
rush home was accomplished at risk
OF life and limb, II you happened to be
driving. So much has been written
about the automobiles endangering
life. that few words on the other
side might not be remiss. The owners

denly swerves into the middle of the
road directly in front of the autos
course, although the bell has given
warning. and the machine is also on
the correct side. II takes time to play
the game and II coachmen and owners

precautions what can he expected Dut
accidents. At the races the other
day ii seemed as If the carriages were
counting death. for they were perfectly
regardless of the rules of the road and
did every thing they shouldn't do,
deliberately and recklessly. And II
anything had happened of course the
chauffeur would have been blamed by
the public, no matter how careful he
might have been. We do not put our
hands into the mouths of raging lions
to see If they will bite, so, It might
be a good plan to keep on our own
side of the road.
