A Fellow and Hi, Lodss,

Some people s~ lodge crazy and

pessimistic and can see no good in
any lodge.
But there is much good to be
derived from membership in any
of the legitimate lodges tina,

lodge habit is not carried to ex.
cess.

The Spec Fiend and the Dangerous Road.

Time without number our attention has been called to the speed.
ing auto and motorcycle. We have mentioned this matter, but with.
in the past week several of the prominent ranchmen and citizens OF
this valley have made "a special call on u asking that we call the at
tenton of motorcyclists and auto drivers not only to speeding in
town but OIL dangerous curves II country roads.
These lei have ample reason to kick. There are many sharp
dangerous curves, rs well Is coming up ON the top of a steep hill to
drop over. Each driver, when he can not see the road for a good dis
lance ahead, should shut down his speed to a limit of where he can
control his a oil short notice. There are several places where cars
can run fast on good road right up to a point where they drop over a
steep hill, and with the traffic increasing on all our valley roads, adj
diGonal care should be used to prevent accidents.
We have often seen carsc coming at a rate of from 25 to 60 miles
per hour right up to the top of the hill on the edge of town and it is
worse. No man has any more right on a road than another and be-
rights Or privileges of the road by either speeding or crowding.
It'll only the lack of brains, and the less brains the more speed,
and it is no browning honor to drive fast, just because you may have
a fast car.
In turning out to pass another car don't be afraid that the other
fellow is not giving his share of the road. Get far enough apart SO
that there is no danger of slewing Or bouncing into the other car.
DON'T drive fast to show off Don't drive fast in passing cars.
Don't get above the speed limit in town. Don't drive fast up to a
sharp curve. Dou't drive fast up to the brink of a hill, where you
can not see fifty yards ahead.
There lis really no need of putting the county Or your relatives
to the expense OF burying you, and if you are lucky enough to escape
death, a doctors bill is unnecessary if these rules are observed. And
II you escape don't hurt or kill some one in your car or in the other
fellows car.
Our best drivers are not the fastest by any means, and unless it
is necessary don't burn the road, at the risk of killing or iniuring
some one We heartily approve of the above matters, and while we
are publishing this at the request of others, yet it is sound Judge
ment and if your judgement is sound you will heed it-otherwise YOU
Will keep on until the undertaken gets your remains.
