It would be extreme folly for one to inveigh against the auto mobile, for this is an automobile mad age. It has caught the coun try in its alluring embrace and is holding it hard and strong. The old, the young, the rich, the poor, alike are caught in the whirlpool and up and down the highways they go at break-neck speed. It is not the use of the machine that should be condemn ed, for 1t is a most useful one but the manner of its use, in some instances, calls for restric- tions. Thoughtless youths toe frequently "burn the wind' for the safety of pedestrians and other modes of travel. To stay on terra frma and speed up tc 20 miles an hour would not be seriously objectionable; but when it comes to flying over the roads at a sixty mile clip, the thing be comes alarming and dangerous Like a sharp-edged tool, an auto mobile is a bad thing to place ir the hands of children and feeble minded people. Many serious accidents and numerous deaths are daily chronicled from the i'm moderate use of automobiles.

The idea of moving up the clocks one hour so that work men in shops and factories may have an hour of daylight in the evening to work their gardens, would be a capital one if work men were machines; but as they are human beings, they will not be able to do great deal of gar dening after working hard for ten hours at other employment.
