UNCOMMON SENSE

MAKE EXPLANATION UNNECESSARY.

Politicians are the only people who find explana-
tions inconvenent Explanations of conduct always
barrassing. They usually unsatisfactory.
Explanations really first cousins If you
haven't yet discovered how futile you WILL
there is need of dwelling them in this article.
An action that requires explaining may of be
perfectly good and worthy action. In
may be the only action possible.
Bat very often impossible reach the people who
affected by it with the explanation Many times they
do not understand the explanation Occasionally they refuse
accept although they know to be perfectly valid
So it is safer whenever possible to make explanations
unnecessary If you about do something that know
will lay open serious criticism, think first if it will
HAVE to be explained, not if it CAN be explained.
Doing habitualy things that require explanations will
get you a bad after while, and although you
always able to make explanations that will get only the
reputation of "alibier"
A few illustrations will suffice to show how explana-
tons injurious.
A ma bad company is arrested for completely in a
of his companions committed without his knOw
edge. He would dream of committing any crime He
merely happened to be in the place where the crime
committed do something for of his questionable
friends
He can explain all that in court and clear himself But
hundreds people of his explanation will
still think guilty If he had kept out of bad company
in the first place would not have required an explanation
o keep him out of Jail.
You make a succession of trfng errors in your work.
Later of the sort is made by be-
side you He happens to be aber and bames you You
have considerable explaining to put the blame where
belongs and don't always succeed for youE record
for is against you
If you hadn't made the rfng in the first place
you would have needed explanation to establish your n
nocence of the serious
If YOU apply the explanation test to whatever do
YOU will mistakes and get into less trouble Even
when explanations easy they always troublesome,
it often happens that the who ought to get
them is beyond your reach.
Avoid excuses always Avoid explanations whenever
possible. BY using little you make nine-tenhs of

THE oLDoUESTIoNS.

I AST nights shocking railroad wreck at Porter,
L. Ind, in which more than forty people lost
their lives and hundred more were injured, raises
the same old questions:
Why did an engineer run past signal set against
him and into an open deraiIing switch?
Above all, where the tracks of two railway lines
cross or join each other, multiplying the risks Of
collision, why it not possible to stop trains auto
niadcaIy so that lives may not depend on an en-
gmeer'S seeing or needing signal2
Why are these wooden cas in use to-day on any
railroadl
The biggest loss Of life is reported to have oc-
CURED in the wooden day coach of the Michigan
Central train. The steel SleeperS Of the New York
Central train we're overturned, but comparatively
few persons in them were seriously hurt.
There ought not to be one wooden passenger car
On any railroad in the United States to-day.
At points Of special danger, fke crossings, the
best automatic train stopping devices so far avail
able should reduce the human equation to its lowest
terms.
More than forty lives have TO be sacrificed to
provide a new spur toward greater safety
