For want Of a better name The
Herald has termed its original safe
ty-first idea a contest. In the true
meaning of the word, it has been
less of a contest than a game Of
chance. II was a matter Of luck
that each OF the fifty selected mo-
torists were driving carefully when
one of The Herald judges happened
to be in the vicinity
1t was this feature. the pre-
dominating element of chance. that
made the contest. or game, prob
ably the most fascinating ever play

torists as means of inducing safe
ty-first tactics.
From the numerous friendly let
tiers received from the hfty care

readily seen that the motorists of
Washington have entered into the
game with this spirit and that they
appreciate the signal honor accord

date, started for his triumphal re-

touched off by the first demonstration
for the candidate since his nomina

neighbors and probably $4,000 Wis
ttors from Ohio and the middle west
will crowd around \the Harding home
in Marion to welcome the candidate.
At great effort Senator Harding
has insisted that his maiden speech
as a presidential candidate be made
to his home folks as a tribute of
gratitude to them and it was with
deep emotion that he rode through
the scenes OF his boyhood along the
road to Marion today.

fight for the adoption of certain
planks in the. platform. That has
been done Now these same Wilson

cars of a northbound freight on the
Nashville, Chattanooga and st. Louis
railroad, jumped the rails at Bel
mont station here Sunday afternoon,
when the train took the siding to
allow a northbound freight to pass.
It is believed that the rails on

cars to leave the track and turn over
the bank. No one was injured, al
though considerable delay was caus-

turned cars were not damaged to any
great extent. A wrecking crew sue
