Licenses for Auto Owners

Ability to drive motor car well is not, it is generally agreed matter of technical knowledge. but judgment and temperament. man might be able to pass examination and still be a very poor automobile operator. It is well enough to license paid chauffeurs. In this way is obtained evidence of a reasonable amount of mental compe- tency in men unknown responsibility to whom human lives be intrusted The licensing of motorcfr owners however is a proposal which ap- pears be rather unsound
 There is a national" movement afoot. with head quarters in New Orleans to make every driver of an automobile carry a license which his or her pho tograph is pasted Persons who drive other vehicles are not considered; only automobists would be forced to carry 'passports" And the object of this peculiar measure? Professedy. it is to decrease the number of accidents. Unfortunately. the promoters of the idea do explain in detail how the licensing of motorists is to attain that desirable end.
 The laws protecting the public against negligent automobists are, in many states anc cities, explicit and adequate In many places where fatal auto accidents very numerous the law is often not enforced with sufficient frmness. An example is the of little girl with unusual musical gifts' aged 3 years who was lately killed by an automobile in the suburbs of New York. The operator of the ear driving at only eight miles an hour and was very sorry about the accident. Whether he was going a speed of eight eighteen miles an hour, there was for his striking q pedestrian in the road Thousands Of motorists drive year after year without serious dlnts. They are not merely lucky They have cultivated the habit of being care ful and alert Yet that crminally negligent New York automobst will very likely get off scot free instead receiving the heavy penalty he deserves.
 When a particularly distressing automobile acci- dent occurs the public, strangely enough does not seem to be indignant the offender, but at autOmo bists a class This does not appear to be req sonable Is it not more just, in such case to make the negligent person suffer for his carelessness than to fasten unpleasant restrictions upon automobile owners who in practice and by preference are iaw- bding? A iawless person is not made less Iawess by more stringent laws. And it is certainly queer that motorists down pedestrians often able To convince everybody that the accident unavoid able

ENGLANDS GREAT GENERALS
 ARE iPiSH

For a full century the four most conspicuous English generals have been Irishmen Wellington, the Iron Duke. had no peer in British military circles during the first half of the last century. He was Irish clear thru.
 When the victor of Waterloo moved off the stage, Niscout Wolseley and Earl Roberts were youngsters maf ing their debut. Those who achieved greater fame during the second half of the last century than any others. Both Irish, although Roberts was born in India.
 Now Kitchener is the war lord of the British empire, and he comes from good oul County Kerry, the es- sence of Irishdom.

MISS MARY EVELYN CHEW
DANSANT A SUCCESS
Benefit For Sunnysile Nursery Proved a
Brilliant Affair

The benefit given on Saturday afternoon for
the Sunnyside Day Nursery proved quite unique,
II was arranged primarily TO attract the
younger generation. And this it did, for Hort-
cultural Hall was fairly swarming with flushed
and excited kiddies, who followed the hectic
adventures of Alice in Wonderland" and the
equally thrilling Lena and the Geese" with
shouts and squeaks OF childish joy.
Then came the dancing in the foyer, and this.
too, was not confined to the grownups. for
numerous tiny tots ventured to the floor
tripping the light fantastic with all the grace
and rhythm of their elders. The competitive
dancing was judged by c. Frederick Jordan,
Andrew Wheeler. Jr., and C. w. Churchman.
Miss Inez Drayton and Robert Carrere were
the winners of the fox trot, and Miss Sidney
Wilson and Longstreth Brown of the hesita-
tion Miss Mary Stuart Wurts and Robert
Carrere executed a graceful pas de deux.
Professional dancers from New York. Miss
Cynthia Perot and Elliott Taylor gave ex-
hbitlon OF a graceful and unusual fox trot
Among the young women who acted as aides
were Miss Jean n. Thompson. Miss Lois b.
Cassatt, Miss Mary Alice Clay, Miss Jean B. p.
G. Hancock, Miss Inez Drayton, Miss Mar
garetta Jeanes, Miss Gainor o. Baird and Miss
