Editorial Comment
II Is Time to Act.
(Camden Herald)

In another column we give the ac-
count of the automobile accident at
Northport last Saturday afternoon.
We have not heard of any action be-
ing taken by the Waldo County or
State officials looking toward the
punishment Of the man responsible
for the accident. Here was a case
where a man observing the law In
every way and driving with care was
run into and narrowly escaped being
killed by a man driving at reckless
speed, on the left hand side of the
road on a sharp turn. If this driver
was under the influence of liquor at
the time he should lose his license
and suffer whatever penalty the law
imposes for criminally careless driv-
ing. If he was not under the influence
of liquor then he was knowingly guilty
Of recklessness that might easily
resulted in manslaughter. He is unfit
to drive an auto and certainly should
suffer heavy penalty. When is any
person safe on our roads if such GRIM
inal recklessness is to go unpunished?
What is to deter any reckless, irrespon-
sible driver from causing the death or
severe inquiry to other innocent people
if nothing is to be done by the author
tiles to punish the guilty ones. For the
safety Of our roads and for the protec-
ton Of law abiding people, especially
of innocent women and children who
want to enjoy automobiling without
fear we believe we have a right to ask
the proper authorities to institute a
searching investigation of the accident
at Northport last Saturday, and see
that the guilty party is punished.

The Maine Coast Club at Petit Ma
nan Point is doing big business this
month. At the beautiful rustic chapel
ALL -Souls-by- -the-S Sea, there will be
held a course Of stereopticon lectures
on Bible Pictures during the next
month. This little chapel is erected
within a stones throw OF the Cluo
House and all the appointments are
rustic: the pulpit. the altar, the font,
and numerous other appointments.
The bell Is a ships bell and is tolled
before services, and it is indeed a
quaint and rare pleasure to listen TO
the booming Of the ocean and then
turn and hear the bell in the tower
summoning ali to divine worship. The
church is undenominational and Is en-
joyed by many. Services are held both
morning and evening each Sabbath.
