II you DO not believe that the traf-
1c officer earns his salary every day
walk out and stand at his post with
him any day during the rush hours
First he is warning pedestrians that
there are others who would like to
use the street and to kindly delay
their conversation until the sidewalk
is reached. This out of the way there
Is the street car to give the right-of-
way and the necessary warning to
other traffic to come to a halt Final
ly there is the automobile owner who
persists in violating the traffic signal.
This individual seems to be possessed
with the idea that he is the sole user
of the street, and warning signals are
not meant for him. He runs by them
in most every instance with the con-
sequent result that accidents are mar
rowly averted, and what is just as
bad, the traffic is congested. 1t is up
to the traffic policeman to straighten
this out and at the same time keep
the street open as far as possible. If
every one would lend a band to help
the officer out, the work would be
easier for him. and all would be in
better humor. His point of view, the
center of the street, gives him the
position of vantage in handling the
movement of vehicles. 1t is not his
idea to hold any one up any longer
than necessary. but when he gives a
signal he has reason to hope that it
will be obeyed. When it is not, there
is trouble for all, and especially for
the officer.
