THE DEADLY
AUTOMOBILE.

A man was struck and killed by
am automobile in Washington @,
Saturday. The shock to the nerves
of many who witnessed the unfor
tunate occurrence had barely suhsid-
cd when another horror, from the
same source, was reported in the same
city. On the latter occasion young
woman was the victim, and it is alleg-
cd the man who was at the wheel
was drunk and that his passengers
were JOY riders.
An automobile, when properly
handled, is no more to be Dreaded
than any other vehicle, but when ~
experienced or irresponsible persons
attempt to act as chaulfctsrs tEar'
is great danger, not only to persons
compelled to cross streets, but 70
others on sidewalks. as it is com
mon occurrence for machines to run
upon sidewalks.
Automobiles are regarded by many
as the juggernauts Of civilization
and should disasters from them cen
tinue, it will soon be necessary io'
people to cross streets under uln'
nels or on overhead bridges in fhs
larger cities.
joy riding in autos is orc OF w
diversions Of the twentieth century
We often read Of people being k''ee
CT badly~injurcd by the carelessncs'
of drivers, while the machine whiSk'
away without stopping to make N
vestigations. This is often noticea
bic in New York and other larg'
cities.
The automobile has come to stay an;
statutes should be prepared to mini
mize accidents from them as mucI
as*p6ssible Some people who opcrat
machines seem to assume that eve"v
body and everything must get nu
of their way They should ne tau~h
differently. rva. a..

He paused and turned to the silent, unac-
cusing little figure beside him. Then, rails
ing his voice to the whining pitch of a noun
tain woman, he cried, "Jes' when you got
where you could be some help to us, this had
to happen!'
A moment of strained silence followed the
CHASTITY mimicry. Then Benton continued:
II hired Lonny from his mother tonight
for twenty cents-half the sum he could
earn as doffer boy before he lost his hand"
The eyes that he turned upon his audience
now contained a blazing challenge.
