and children, whose pleasures are
declared to be spoiled by the reck-
less operation of motor cycles and
motor cars by soldiers and others ap-
parently "out for a lark"
Soldiers in "bathtub motors are
said to be the worst offenders, espe-
cially on the long straight stretch OF
road east of the Pennsylvania railroad
embankment near where is located
the barracks of the SD Infantry. 1t
is said that these men engage in races
and attempt all sorts of stunts In
their small side cars In one case. a
