the Department in conference with $50

shows that women, as rule, pay more
attention to traffic regulations than do
men, drive more slowly and are in gen
eral more careful. On the other hand,
any physician will testify that women
are of more nervous nature than men
and will thus lose control Of their cars
more readily. Perhaps another point in
favor of the women is that the largest
percentage of them drive their own
cars, while many of the men drivers are
professional chauffeurs, or are en-
ployed as drivers of trucks or other
commercial vehicles and are less care
full than they would be if the cars they
drive were their own.
But no matter what the reason for it
is, all statistics point TO the fact that the
woman automobile driver is better than
the average man driver. So the men will
either have to improve their driving, or
take lessons from the fairer sex.

It has been our pride to share those

That is why what is known as the
Irish question is not the old question

grave as the present issue.
In the old days the voice OF Ulster
was raised in warning against what

how real those warnings were. It
may be that the wiser counsel will yet
