roa A STANDARD SIGNAL.

The American Good Roads congress
at its recent session in Richmond
adopted a resolution in favor of a
warning signal for automobiles which
should never be used except as warn
ing of peril, which reads as follows:
Resolved, That the unnecessary use
of warning signals should be avoided,
and that an adequate warning signal
should produce an abrupt sound, sufh-
GENTLY loud to be heard under all con-
ditions of traf11c, and that its use, ex-
cept as q warning of danger, should be
prohibited by law"
An idea of the source of this reso-
luton may be had from the names OF
the men who framed 1t, and offered 1t
to the congress for adoption. They
are Col. William D. Soh1er, Boston,
president Massachusetts highway com
mission. Hugh Chalmers of Detroit,
David Beecroft of Chicago. vice presi-
dent Touring Club OF America, presi-
dent Chicago Motor club, editor Motor
Age and The Automobile; Preston Bel
win, president Virginia Automobile as
ISOLATION; Leonard Tufts, Pinehurst,
national leader in the good roads
movement: Sidney s. Gorham, author
of the Illinois automobile law, chair
man legislative committee of Chicago
Automobile club, and personal repre-
sentative OF the secretary of state of
Illinois at the congress; and F. H
Elliott, secretary Touring Club of
America.
In discussing this resolution, Pres
ton Beivin, the active head of the
Virginia Automobile association, said:
1T is time general action was taken
in this matter of the automobile warn
ing signal. People ought to under
stand that the difference between an
adequate and inadequate warning sig
nal is often the difference between life
and death.
ITO be adequate. a signal must have
a harsh. abrupt sound. In making its
recommendation, the American Road
congress has merely forestalled the
action that will be taken throughout
the United States within the next dec
AIDE at the farthest, and probably much
sooner No sane motorist wishes to
take any chances Apart from the
horror he has of injuring anyone, he
wishes to make it certain that he be
not likely to do so.'

THE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
HE'S TOO WARY

Some of the automobile owners in
the neighborhood are going to indulge
in sociability run of a hundred
miles, remarked Fessenden, "and I'd
like to have you go along as my
guest
Not on your life. Fessenden," cried
Rumbelow, vehemently, see what

runs a. lot of accidents always happen
and you want me along to crawl I'M

sure to run into a manhole and then

this neighborhood never invite me TO

Last summer Zediker came over
with a song and dance, to the effect
that he wanted all the old boys in the
neighborhood to imagine themselves
young again and forget their years.
People wouldn't grow old, he said, II

Q.-What Is meant by the express
sion, "An eye for an eye and tooth
for a tooth? Exodus xxi:24)-
Answer-The Law given to the Is
realities by the Lord, through Moses
as the mediator for that nation, was
designed to emphasize and impress the
lesson of the divine principle of JUS
TICE on the minds of the people All
through that wonderful system OF
laws this principle is boldly promi-
nent. Justice Is memorable, demand
ing an exact equivalent for the thing
that is lost or injured by violation
of the principles of Righteousness.
Just as the laws of the material or
natural realm are fixed and absolute;
and any violation of these laws of
nature must exact the penalty; so also
cause and effect are related, so any
violation of the principles of right
eousness demands a recompense and
the penalty is exacted- There is no

another he has to the same extent
injured himself. The law of action
and reaction operates in the moral
realm just as positively as In the ar
rangements of the material universe.
He is happiest who observes the prtn-
ciples of righteousness most fully, and
he is unhappiest who violates them
most 1t follows, therefore. that love
is the fulfilling of the law. Love for
the Lord would prompt one to be ODE
dent to His just commands. and love
for the neighbor would induce one to
do good unto all men as the oppor-
tunities were presented. This great
truth was beautifully set forth by the
Master and His Apostles. See Mat
thew xxi: 37-40, and Romans xiii: 10.
Who does not appreciate the principles
of justice as expressed in the Golden
Rule? And yet how few are observ-
ing this rulei Consequently. how much
unhappiness there is in the world!

Will Mr.. V. say how much each in
