cate Danger.
ENGINEERS APPROVE SCHEME
II VIII Take Some Time TO Make
Change as Laws In Many States
Require Red Lamps-Replaee-
ment Won't Be Costly.

Automobile engineers are consider
Ing the advisabillty OF using yellow in
place of red tail lights so as to min
imlze the danger Of motorists confus-
ing lights placed along highways to
indicate dangerous road conditions
with automobile tail lights.
Many accidents occur owing to mo-
torists being confused In this way.
The red light on the rear of the rail
road trains Is probably the origin of
the red tail light OF automobiles The
railroad train operates ON track and
the rear end of that train Is dangerous
because u train following cannot turn
out to avoid the preceding train. AS
automobiles do not operate on tracks
howeN : an automobile following an
other can generally turn out and pass
II. II will thus be appreciated that the
rear end of AN automobile is danger
Gus only when II Is slowing down or
standing at the roadside. The use OF
red fights In automatic or manually
operated stop signals for the rear Of
automobiles is therefore logical.
The members of the passenger car
and motor truck Standardization com
mlttees Of the Society of Automotive
Engineers, national engineering So
ciety of over 5000 engineers and ex-
ecutives OF automobile and other auto
motive manufacturers. have studied
this proposed change and generally ap-
prove of II. The fact, however, that
the use of red lights is required by
law In many states will mean that
| the change to yellow tail lights cannot
be made until the laws in these states
are revised.
II will, they point out, take some
time to bring about any complete
change from red to yellow tail lights,
but once the wisdom of making such a
change is fully appreciated by motor.
lists. legislators will see that the state
highway laws are revised to permit
the change. The use of existing tall
lamps will in no case be affected, as
II will be possible TO obtain yellow
lamp glasses to replace the red lamp
glasses now In service. II such re-
placement Is wished by the Individual
owners.
The use Of yellow as an automobile
tall light will have an exact parallel
in railway operation. inasmuch as vel
low is used by the railroads as a eau
tion light. This is really what the
tail light OF an automobile is intended
to be. to caution the following machine
that care must be exercised In over
taking and passing other automobiles

THE POWER OF OBERON

THE Fairies as everyone knows
i do not like to be out In the day
time or at least in the sunlight, but
one day they had to be out to undo
the work OF King Oberon, who is very
Jealous OF the power of the Fairies
and never loses chance to display
his powers OF magic charm.
King Oberon is called the King Of
the Fairies, but he really has little
TO do with ruling and has power only
during the hour between the night
and day.
One night the Gobllns caperlng
about came across King oberon sitting
under a leaf in the woods waiting for
the charmed hour when at his com
mand all things would be under his
control.
Gould you change us into big
spiders with lots Of legs?" asked one
Goblin.
"Of course could. Nothing easier"
replied King Oberon. "Why do you

wish to become spidersT' he asked.
You can be lions just as well IL you
like"
"oh, no, we'd rather be spiders with
lots of legs so we can run fast" said
the mischievous little fellow. "We
want to frlghten the Fairies at their
feast In the dell"
This pleased King Oberon very
much, but he did not tell the Gobllns
that his power lasted only short
time, and that they might have to
remain spiders until the next night
unless they returned within the magic
hour.
So the Goblins called all their
brothers to be right on time when the
magic hour came around and King
0beron changed them all into spiders
which scampered to the dell as fast
as their legs would carry them.
The little Fairies and their Queen
