highways are not free from the
dangers of the motoristi who does
not observe the tenets of caution,
courtesy and civility. Observance
of these tenets by all is an objec-

the cooperation of school authori-

skates from catching hold of pass

this manner.
The practice is especially prev
alent on Sixteenth street and on
sherman avenue. two of our few
remaining streets which still pos
sess smooth surfaces.
There is stringent regulation
against this practice in the traffic
code, but police oficials are loath
to enforce a law that on the sur
face appears directed chiefly a,
childish pleasure.
We are trying TO accustom the
children to regard the policeman as
their friend" said Inspector Albert
]. Headley. head Of the traffic 'le-
partment. in discussing this ques-
tion. Most of our policemen have
children of their own. and while
they are prone to stop this practice
whenever they observe it, they just
naturally hate to arrest a chill.
The remedy. in my opinion. lies in
the education of the child as to the
danger of this practice and
this education can only be obtained
in two places-at the home or In
school. l wish every parent in
Washington could see just one of
the narrow escapes these children
have and they WOULD be quickly
