Ned was dog, and when he felt

Courtesy First.

The Hoosier State Automobile association is
spreading broadcast the gospel of courtesy Tor
auto owners and drivers. The association holds
that If every person were as courteous in his
driving as he is in his ordinary living, driving
would be greater pleasure, would be safer,
there would be fewer repair bills, less sentiment
against motorists, less need of stringent laws,
and fewer accideats. The Golden Rules which
the association has 'opted follow, and motorists
and pedestrians wolh 10 we'll to ponder them
seriously:
First, do not hog tn. middle Of the street.
Give the other fellow room to go by and when
he attempts to pass you do not speed up and
perhaps crowd him into safety zone. Be cour-
teous.
Keep out of the safety zones. They are for
the pedestrian. 1t is up to you to make them
safe. Be courteous.
When the fellow comes in from the side street
Give him room to turn the corner; do not crowd.
When you park behind another car, remember he
may wish to leave before you do. Give him room
to get out; don't crowd. When you expect to
stop or turn do not keep your intentions secret
think of the fellow behind. Be courteous. 81 6
Do not presume too much when you have the
right of way. Perhaps the other fellow does not
know it. Be courteous.
Do not cut in front of street car. Remenn-
Der the motorman is human and most of them
will learn all the courtesy you will teach them.
Be courteous.

When you get the Go" signal from traffic
officer remember to give the pedestrians time to|
get out Of the way. Be courteous.
When you see people on the curb trying tol
reach car or vice versa, slow up, stop if neces-
sary, but let them cross without danger. This
is one of the courtesies that will pay the motor
ing public best. Be courteous.
When pedestrian does not or will not pay
any attention to your horn it is well to remember
that the deaf. hundreds Of them. use the streets
as well as you. Be courteous.
When You have an insane desire to speed re-
member the other fellows you are passing have
Think Of the sentiment you are creating against
motoring by your mania. Think Of the accidents
that may happen by your hitting some other dri-
yer coming in from side street, or pedestrian
who does not see you coming Think Of the peo-
pie in your own car, perhaps, who have fear of
speeding and are trying to be game and not let
you know it, It is not sport to drive fast in the
city; it is the utmost discourtesy to your fellow
motorists and fellow citizens. Be courteous.
When a>pedestran sees you coming and DELHI
Terately pays no attention to you, remember that
some are mentally deficient and you cannot tell
them from the clothes they wear. Be courteous.
When you see child on curb, slow up. Re-
member the child can start quicker than you can
stop. Be courteous.
Do not open your cutout on the streets during
the day. Remember there are many sick people
and people on their death beds, whom such a
sound greatly disturbs, Do not open your cutout
at night for you probably remember some night
when you were disturbed when trying to sleep
by some fool whose greatest claim to fame was
his noise Be courteous.
|< And remember that your horn is just few
times worse than your cutout. Be courteous.
Be courteous to police officials and they will
more than repay it. And if you feel like swear
ing at the ordinances, or if you do not like the
traffic arrangements, remember that perhaps
you may be wrong, as most cities Of the United
States today have the very arrangements and Or
dinances which are in operation in Indianapolis.

How different our New Years Ewes
- today are from those of yesterday!
Today we ring in the new year with
Joy and gladness In our hearts, but !
can remember, when we we're children
travelling alone on the road. Lottie ana
l were terrified by the din and con-
fusion of 1t. Lottie was nine and I
was ten when we were doing one-night
stands with second-rate company,
our vehicle being THE Child Bride
Que OF those rare and rank old melo-
dramas constructed to give one alter
nately chills and fever, but winding up
as prescribed by all optimists-"happy
ever after" -.
Two or three of the actresses had
faithfully promised our mother when
she put Lottie and me on the train to
look after us. care for us and see that
we. stood in no imminent danger. But
they cared nothing about us, and we
two little tads were given neither at
tention nor kindness, but left to wan
der around and shift for ourselves.
Our greatest terror was the landing
in small towns and going to hotels.
where invariably We were given the
poorest room in the house. Then going
back and forth to the theatre, through
strange, dark streets, we would shrink
from every shadow and run from light
ed lamppost to lamppost, like scared
rabbits. l was always the guardian of
our resources, which seldom amounted
to more than twenty dollars. but I
stored 1t in a secure leather purse
and hung It around my neck. This
was guarded as If it contained the
capital Of the Bank of England.
Left to Shift for Themselves.
One night, reaching town we had
never visited before, the company
slipped away from us while we were
busy trying to locate our suitcases.
We hurried in the direction they had
taken and found they had gone in a
machine and had completely forgotten
us.
Lottie and l could hardly keep the
tears from our eyes when / asked the
station agent II he knew to which ho-
tel they were going. His abrupt

dozen hotels in this here town,
sounded as violent as II he had order
ed US to prison.
The buses were gone, SO we took
the street car. As we rounded cor
aer many blocks from the station, we
saw the first electric sign that read
Hotel" Lottie and both jumped
on the car and hurried into strange
little inn, old and dilapt dated and al
most deserted. But a cheerful fire
was burning in the CRATE and we
warmed our cold hands while waiting
for some one to come down stairs.

Finally the door opened and big, fat,
jolly-looking German waddled into the
room.
+ "Vell, vot ist?'

alone. This is my sister Lottie."
Still muttering. "Ach, Colt! Two
leetle babies, travelling all by der
selves" to himself, he waddled out OF
the room, like a great, fat duck,
whispered Lottie to me- And as we
watched him, we giggled and held our
hands up to our mouths for fear he
might overhear us and come back
without that broad, welcoming smile
of his.
A Fearful Suggestion.
You don't suppose"-and Lottie's
eyes grew suddenly serious-"we have
got into a robbers den and he might
steal all our money, do you, Mary?"

around my neck excitedly, confident
that my twelve dollars in one dollar
bills was still there. 81 don't think
so, Lottie, DEAR" said, trying to calm
her. HE seemed to be a very nice
gentleman"
"You can never tell about robbers, >
warned Lottie. They're awful sly
people, Mary"
When he returned, he brought with
him a tray and on it were two large
glasses of warm milk and some of the
best buns and German cakes l have
ever tasted. Oh, how we children
gobbled that New Years Eve spread
And how warm and coy we were in
this little roadhouse, for such it was
with our kind German host. There
was no ringing of bells or blowing oil
horns or throwing of confetti on this
our New Years Eve. But it was one
Of the happiest nights we had spen,
since we had to leave our home and
travel on the road.
