The police cannot be on every cor
ner, neither can they see everything
that transpires at the various inter-
sections of the city, but what we want
ed to say is this: that great many
auto drivers absolutely pay no more
attention to the cross sections and
main avenues as though they never
existed. People drive at reckless
speed from cross streets into Fifth
avenue or the other main streets with
out any thought Of safety either to
themselves or other people. They
trust to luck more than to common
sense and if they get by all well and
good. Drivers have. to protect the
driver to their right and if they do not
dc this and an accident happens, they
would be to blame. The Times-Re-
cord would be glad to publish a series
of articles on the rules and rights Of
the road if the police department will
send them in. Many people do not
understand this road rule.

Lytell enacts the leading role is that
of young nglishman in the dark
heart Of India, who becomes famous
for deed of exceptional bravery
and then sinks to the depths of de-
graduation after an unhappy marriage
in London. The picture portrays life
in far-of India where, in English
garrisons and native villages, Leigh
Dering, a young English officer, first
distinguishes himself as the hero of
Fort Akbar; and then sounds all the
debths of evil ways among the native
grag-sellers' huts and opium dives.
