HIGHwAf ACCfDENrs.

Following the killing of mother and her son, and 90 deaths on the highways during the month Of November, the state registrar of motor vehicles In Massachu- setts declares it was due to the fact that the operator of the motor vehicle per sisted in driving his car ahead when he could not see what was on the road in front of him
 Because of this condition and the ia talities which have resulted, the regis trar maintains that No man operating a motor vehicle has a right to proceed unless he can see the roadway ahead of him, and if he does and then hits sorne- one the responsibility is and should be his'
 Apparently the registrar is pointing out the fact that greater caution should be used by the driver of automobiles, in stead of pushing ahead with. the idea of taking a chance The result Of taking that chance is too we'll known. That is what causes most of the accidents, most of the crossing fatalities and trouble in general. What is needed is greater re- spect> for safety and an assumption oi responsibility by every driver for his own protection and that of other high way users
 The Massachusetts registrar attribut ed the death of the mother and son te this very trouble, while the driver insist | ed that he was blinded by 8 headlight coming toward him. There is nothing
 that makes driving dangerous more thar a dazzling headlight. Lights which make l it impossible for others to see where
 they are going should never be permit ted. While the registrar insists tn, driver who was dazzled should have ap piled his brakes instead of his dinnmer.
 as he did, there was also an obligation
 on the part of the driver of the car witl
 the glaring light that cannot be over
 looked. Dazzling headlights have beer
 the cause of endless accidents, and ar'
 bound to cause trouble wherever permit
 ted, and if is unreasonable to expect oth
 CTS to assume all the responsibility fo
 the accidents for which they are direct
 lyNor indirectly the cause and permi
 them to go unrestricted and uncriticized

AVOIDING THE MIDNIGHT AIR

 Its so easy for physicians to give orders," laughted the caller. We did our hest" said Mrs Simmons. | T ordered heated limousine to call for us and we had robes and blankets and hot water bags and everything yeu could imagine to keep him good and warm. We took the stenographer because Mr. Sim

 *NWe got started all right and Mr Sim mons went right to the stateroorn, where we had. extra heat turned on and every 1 thing closed up so that he should not

Simmons asleep with the aid of a sleeping potion Then came a terrific 1 jolt and the train stopped so suddenly that I was thrown out of the berth The stenographer, who had q lower berth in the car rdpped on the door and called to us that there had been a wreck and the conductor said we must transfer to the next car ahead. It seems that the oar behind had slipped down the embank-
 ment and they were afraid our car was going too"
 How terrible !"
 We had seven handbags,;" Mrs. Sim. mons went on. And all those rugs and things. not to mention the typewriter 1 which the stenographer gathered up 1,
