Street Car Smoking believe the
majority of smokers would willingly
give up the privilege of smoking in
street cars if they stopped to think of
how much their pleasure Injuries the
health and comfort of motormen.
l smoke, and often smoke in the
vestibules of street cars. That is, l
did until got letter from a motor
man telling what it did to him. Since
then have quit smoking in street car
vestibules.
1 didn't need law or ordinance to
make me quit. l did it because /
thought it was the square thing to do
Like thousands of others, hadn't
thought of how much my enjoyment
of a smoke was affecting motormen
and their families.
So don't think it is the smokers
who are opposed to stopping smok-.
ing in street cars, but rather those
who sell tobacco.
And l think the Record-Herald is
doing a good thing in making a fight
to prevent smoking in street cars.
After my attention had been called
to it, got to thinking. Then l saw
that this smoking in street car vesti-
bules not only was disagreeable to
motormen, but also to women who
had to crowd through the smoking
men to get out of the front end of
a car.
l saw also that if smoking were
stopped, much of the splitting in those
vestibules would be stopped
l imagine that few men smoke
more than do, and / imagine that
every fellow who considers others as
well as himself can easily get along
without smoking while on a surface
car.
The ordinance isn't needed for men
who are fair and considerate It is |
needed, however, for the government |
of selfish men who are willing to en-

Money and Friends.-There is
some good in all of us. We can find
it in others if we look for it. One
trouble is that as a general thing we
are not looking for it. We are look
ing for something to criticize. We
like to find fault-with others, not
ourselves. And doggone the man
who finds fault with us.
When l get acquainted with sue
cessful business men, with rich men,
l begin looking for the good. That
may be because it doesn't really stick
out SOS you'd notice it. .-
I've seen men who were mighty
good fellows when they were max
ing money. They owned their money
and made it mind them. 1t had to
get busy and do things. But I've seen
it pile up so fast that instead of be-
ing servant it became master.
Then friends we're lost. Money
had such a mastery that the fellow
who thought he owned it became
suspicious of nearly everybody, and
thought they wanted to get some of
it away from him.
He's even become suspicious of
his friends; and the real ones fall
away from him |. mean the ones
that enjoyed his friendship until he
become a slave to his money, and.
who wanted only the friendship and
none Of the money.

suggest that the motormen petit
ton the street railway company to
post notices in the vestibules kindly
requesting smokers to consider the
motorman. Say frankly that there is
no law or ordinance prohibiting
smoking, and make the appeal to
each mans sense of decency. =
l imagine this will be almost as eff
fective as a city ordinance or state
law. l think it would soon stop
smoking, because l think the great
majority of smokers are fair and
want to do the decent thing.
