Corfu is none other than the an
cient Coreyra-the little piece of
earth that is responsible for the
greatest calamity that ever over
took the human race. Coreyra
brought on the Peloponnesiau
war between Sparta and Athens
and their allies, the result Of
which was the ruin of Athens and
the arrest of her wonderful civiliS
cation. Had it not been for that
war the Athenian genius would
have kept on with its develop-
ment for we know not how long a
period. and the gain to humanSsz
would have been inconceivabIy
great. From the cultural stands
point Athens was Greece. 1t was
the home of the art, science.
philosophy and eIoquence. which
made Greece immortal, and whea
Athens went down all that waa
not barbarism went down alona
with her
Because Coreyra appealed ia
Sparta to help her fight Athens,
and because, as a consequence Of
the fight, Athens was beaten and
her empire practically wiped out,
the harm was done to mankind
that can never be estimated. It
took the world eighteen hundred
years to recover, even in part.

fatal Peloponnesian war.

equipment this practice seems to
be without reason or excuse.
So far as my observation goes,
il is not done in any other first
class town, and no sufficient rea-
son has ever been given for doing
it in Atlanta. People need the
street car service as much when
there is a rainstorm accom-
panied by lightning as at other
times. e. p. W.

CAR SERVICE AND STORMS

Editor The Georgian:
1t seems to me the public has
a just cause Of complaint regard
ing the street car service which
is given them in this city during
thunderstorms. 1t has. during
the past few years, become the
custom of the Georgia Railway
and Power Company to suspend
service during even very mild

T WAS almost startled on seeing,
in the current number of the
magazine called Motor, a
picture of an automobile furnish
ed with the new French device of
movable electric eyesl
Even when the autos great
glazing eyes are fixed in direc-
ton its resemblance at night to
a demon of unimaginable swift
ness and power is stunning, and
one gets out of its way with pan
icky haste. But when it bears
on each side of its head a glow
ing eye, which turns magically In
all directions, searching out the
fleeing pedestrian in his retreat
by the fence or the hedge, and
detecting every obstruction along
the borders of it's way, the veri-
similitude is complete. Man has
never yet made anything so thrill
lingly Hfelike, but inspired with a
life that seems more than humanl
Everything Done for Safety.
Yet while, to the excited jim
aeinatiou, these movable mechan-
icaI eyes may increase the terror
Of the auto rushing through the
night, they are. for all wanderers
in the ways, all nomads Of the
night, a means and an assurance
of greater safety. They proclaim,
again, that the modern demon of
the road is a kindly demon, who
means no harm, although he
speeds so swiftly, and who would
not, willingly, hurt a hair of our
heads. He is as DESTROYS as are
we who look upon him with fear,
and jump at his croaking voice,
to avoid all evil.
II those who still carp at the
automobile, and nurse an an
tagonism to it, would consider
what has been done, and what is
still being done-as witness this
latest device-to eliminate the
peculiar dangers which it's inven-
ton has introduced into the high
ways, they would find themselves
taking a more philosophical view
of things, and would cease their
opposition to one of the greatest
advances in locomotion that
science has ever promoted. You
have only to glance through the
pages of the magazine ] have
mentioned in order to convince
yourself that the inventors and
manufacturers of auto vehicles
hold nothing more dear than the
question of safety; safety for
those who ride and for those who
only look upon the riders.
Put Bad Roads Out of Business
1t is the same with the roads
themselves. Unthinking people
sometimes blame the automobile
for damaging the roads-as if
most of the roads that we had be-
fore it's arrival COULD be dam
aged! But, look at the other side
of the affair. Only a few years
ago every American travelling in

Europe blushed At the thought Of
the painful contrast between the
roads there and most of those
that he was accustomed to at
home. He could only console
himself by the reflection that we
were subduing a new continent,
and required time to complete the
work in good shape.
Then came the auto, and what
has been the result? Within a
few short years, solely by the
stimulus that it has impaired, we
have developed thousands upon
thousands of miles of roadways
that France herself might be
proud of. This single invention
has caused a leap Of improve
ment that hundreds Of years Of
ordinary progress would not have
produced. The automobile has
put the old. muddy, rutty, all but
impossible roads of our fathers
out of commission, and the whole
country smiles with the improve
ment, and grows richer because
of it,
Speaking Of French roads. I
read another interesting thing,
which must be set down entirely
to the credit of the automobile
We are now building better roads
than they have in France. and the
reason is because we have built
them from the beginning with thu
needs Of the auto in view. It
has taught US how to build them.
Many of the French roads are
beginning to deteriorate. 1t is thS
automobile that has searched out
and revealed their weak points,
The growing use of auto-car-
riages of all kinds in the French
army has brought a strain to
bear upon the roads lying in the
districts where the threat OF in
vasion causes frequent military
maneuvers in time of peace-a
strain that was not foreseen when
the roads were constructed-and
some of them are proving unable
TO bear it.
Recognizes Their Value.
What will the French do? Will
they abandon the army autos, or
intermit the maneuvers? To do
so would be to invite instant con-
quest of their country. No, they
will reconstruct the roads, and in
crease the number of their auto
cars. They know the inestimable
value of the good demon that has
come to revolutionize transporta-
ton on this planet, and the roads
will have to be made durable
enough to carry him on his civil
izing and peace promoting way;
for the auto, in its manner, is as
great a force for universal peace
as is the strong battleship. Every
thing that links the world togeth-
er makes for universal brother
hood. and the faster we travel the
richer and more contented we be-
come.
