A CRIMINAL RECORD.
Huntington Gazette,1

The good people Of the United States
make much ado over the atrocities
charged to various beliigerents in the
European war. That such atrocities
were perpetrated and will continue to
be perpetrated is not surprising In
consideration Of all the circumstances
Plunging q bayonet thru the vitals OF
a wounded foe on the battlefield sounds
atrocious and is atrocious, but the
enormity of the offense can not be
compared to that Of the mangling OF
child by a speed-orazed automobile
driver on pleasure bent.
The state highway commission in
report issued yesterday alleges that 81
persons were killed and $500 severely
injured last year in automobile high
way accidents. Two-thirds Of the ac-
cidents were due to speeding. mex
perienced driving and the use Of in
toxicating liquor by the drivers, says
the report. This is a sad record: a
record to be ashamed OF. Discussing 1t
can not restore the dead victims of the
automobile accidents to life or the IN
jured ones to health.
Out Of the fifty-eight cases which
the state highway commission finds
fatalities resulting from carelessness,
speeding. inexperienced driving or in
toxicat;ng liquors, only two or three
of the culpable ones were called to &C
count for their acts. The question
whether the casualty record for 1915
Will exceed that Of 1915 can be an
swered in the affirmative unless some
drastic steps are taken to institute re-
forms and enforce the laws now gov
erning the operation of motor vehicles.

AS TO THE LITTLE RED SCHOOL HOUSE.

The cause of the consolidated schoo
is making most encouraging progress,
reports The Burlington Hawkeye. "In
q few years the consolidated school will

house will have become as scarce as
the proverbial hens teeth"
Now let no friend of the little red
school house" rise up in wrath. The
Hawkeye is right in its prediction
That is what is going to take place.
The little red, white and implanted
school houses are on their way. Some
thing better has arrived. The lumber
wagon gave way TO the democratic
buggy. that buggy to the carriage and
the top buggy and these have had 10

riaSe house While the automobile took
their places. No because they were not
good and useful but because the new
! is better and more useful And so the
consolidated school will take the place

Sentiment? Why the thought of the
! little red school house is redoleur with
the renderest sentiment. So TO the old
married folks is that three-quarter seat

THE ANTl-rlPP,NG LAW.

The anti-tipping law is an insidious
OF the legislature to reduce the Pull
man porter to abject penury. 1t
makes It a penitentiary offense to slip
quarter to dull mahogany porter
who draws SIS month from a highly
watered corporation which sells upper
berths for $1.25 and carves more
melons than the entire output Of the
state Of Georgia.
This nefarious law was enacted at
the request Of parsimonious passen-
gers who travel from New York to
California on one filling Of apple pie
and cream cheese. It Is a melancholy
fact that a niggardly occupant Of a
tourist sleeper will demand all Of the
appointments of a private car service,
including the morning paper, free
shoe shining and fresh pillow sham,
and at the end of the trip reward an
obsequious, brunette porter with the
cold vacant look Of defunct carp. Is
it any wonder that the Pullman porter
is ruthless cynic, and that he at
times refuses to massage the massive
shoes Of tourists who are saving their
money for plug tobacco and egg sand
witches? .-..,,-f..e.
With the customary prodigality Of
the American legislator. the anti-tip-
ping law has been extended SO as to
include the humble head waitress, the
fiuttering bell hop and the hotel
barber. In states where this law Is
in full force and effect. 1t is more
dangerous to tip the little lady who
checks your hat than it Is to run an
ammunition ship thru the war zone.
This teaches US that we should exer-
else more care in picking out men to
make our laws for us, instead of send
ing to the legislature tight listed.
