mobile driven by a woman, whose

Der of the automobile is known to the

alighting from a street car at Twelfth

the accident occurred. Two wheels
passed over his abdomen and for a
time it was thought he had been very
seriously injured. Spectators say the
driver of the automobile attempted to
stop the machine but could not do so.
At council meeting Monday night
vigorous complaint was made over the
practice of number of automobile
drivers failing to stop their machines
when street cars stop for passengers
to alight or board.
Prosecutor Keller said today that
the state law on this matter was too
vague to be satisfactorily enforced
and he suggested that city ordinance
be drafted.

Main Street Friends church, where
Mead A. Kelsey, city, submitted a
compilation of action taken on the
matter by thirteen yearly meetings
last year.
1t is deemed the duty Of the church
Mr.. Kelsey's report said, to warn it's
members against whatever may inter.
fere with the best development of
Christian character. Secret societies,
he said, may present influences of
lower moral standards or undermine
the grounds of faith
Attacks Secrecy Pledge.
"The mere pledge to secrecy" he
said, sis surrender of manly inde-
pendence that tends to moral deca-
dence. Members of the church should
be very circumspect in these import
ant matters and they will find safety
in complete avoidance of such rela-
tions. Secret societies are incapable
of producing any good which might
not be produced by safe and open
means"
No action was called for on the
compilation, which was issued in
