Respecting the Law

The moving picture actress who decided to serve a
Jail sentence for violating law against careless auto
mobile driving may have been actuated by nothing
than desire to get good advertising but the
less she set most valuable example
Ordinarily the first thought of the person who has
been caught in the act of violating the law avoid
the penalty and the prominent the individual is,
socially financially, the stronger to be the
opinion that he She should be exempt from the rules
that apply to common people.
Rarely there is an exception to the rule, and in
such the citizen is willing to good example
by promptly and willingly paying the fine tho there
may have been good for his breaking the
law.
This unwilingness to pay the penalty Of lawbreakng
seems to be part Of the general spirit of dsrespect
the law. The people who most commonly indulge
in minor violations of the laws are they who most
eagerly strive to avoid its penalties.
If more lawbreakers willing to go to jail as a
good example, like the movie picture actress there would
be much larger number of citizens who would make
it their constant effort to give strict obedience to the
law.
