BICYCLES IN TRAFFIC

An earnest appeal has been made to this newspaper to emphasize a matter previously mentioned in these columns. It is the danger resulting from the non-observance of traffic rules by those who ride bicycles. es- pecially the very young. and especial ly those who ride double" on the wheel.
 On such a matter as this words seem terribly weak. The most careful drivers of cars are in constant fear lest they run down and seriously in jure someone, probably some young person, riding a wheel. The driver knows from experience that there is no way to figure out what such bicycle riders will do. They shoot across the street: their machines wobble; they stop suddenly. they fall off. Drivers of automobiles have injured people al- though such drivers have driven as far away from the riders as the street would permit. Automobile drivers have placed themselves in danger by driving out of their proper path in

WE NEED THE FARMER

People who fail to be concerned over the present condition of the farmer, namely people mainly inter ested in manufacturing, should read and take to heart Roger Babson' s weekly letter published in this news paper last Saturday.
 In general terms, although he does not make the application, there is a deal of resemblance to the relation of agriculture in this country to manu- featuring, etc. as there is to the busi- ness of this country and the condition of Europe. The maufacturer in this country is better off if the farmer is prosperous. just as this country is bet ter off if Europe is prosperous.
 Getting down to Babson's significant statements we read; "One thing how ever, we all should keep in mind, namely that unless the farmer is pros porous" the rest of us cannot be. The farmers are greatly curtailing their buying and this is being reflected throughout all the industries" And note this: When the farmer stops buying from the retailer, the retailer stops buying from the jobber, the Jobber stops buying from the manu- facturer and the manufacturer shuts down his plant" The situation is found less emphatic in this city as the cus- toners of our retailers are not farm CTS, and such customers here are not curtailing their buying. Moreover much of the merchandise sold here is not manufactured here. But never theless the condition of the farmer does affect indirectly the condition of

ENGLAND IS COURTEOUS

Perhaps we Americans have little time just now, when problems fact us, to notice formal matters, but i may not be amiss to note the fact that Formal England is practising one oi her time-honored customs, obtaining there when royalty dies, in an official way The death of king there. for instance, calls for the wearing of mourning by everyone for a certain period. A dispatch to this effect comes from London: "The King commands that the Court shall wear mourning for one week for the late Honorable Warren Gamaliel Harding, President of the United States of America. The mourning is to commence from this date"
 Thus the same honor is being given the memory of the official head of the United States accorded royalty in England. The event is significant.

BRYAN TAKE NOTICE

Old man Darwin's boy is going tc
 make the thought of his dad more
 awful than ever if he don't watch out TheNkid has grown up to be regular
 professor, you know, and takes after
 his father lot. Billy Bryan, who knows just how bad Darwins theory of evolution is, will point to what the kid Darwin says and turn away horri- fled. "See what this here evolution theory is doing" he will cry. For this here young Darwin says that social reformers as class do, much more harm than good. Now isn't that aw- full? And he believes the strongest should survive and that we ought to prevent, in some painless way, the great increase in the weak population of the earth and encourage the strong, the fit as he calls them. "The mis- guided efforts" says he, "of many sin cere and earnest social reformers real ly result in continuance of race in- foriority and deterioration" or words to that effect. And then, to cap the climax, he dares impeach the great, broad wisdom of those who want to make the world better for their hav- ing lived in it." as the old phrase has it, by saying that The philanthropists of today only look at one side of the question and entirely ignore the ra- cial effects of the reforms they are advocating"
 Now aint all that terrible? Just think of the ridiculousness of treating the human race as the things that grow in your garden! Just think of trying to make the human race better stronger and more efficient by pulling up the weeds that grow in it. Isn't old man Darwin 3, boy crazy with the heat and won't our wise Billy Bryan smile at the proof that this here theory of evolution makes person think all sorts of twisted thoughts?

order to run as little risk of injurin
 rider in front of them as possible
 and yet disasted has followed.
 No matter how proficient is a mai
 riding wheel he can not be sure. 1
 he carries child in front of him oi l the wheel--on the handle bars---o
 back of him, that such child will no
 make some movement which will
 swerve his wheel directly into thu
 path of an automobile. Few automo
 bile drivers, passing a bicycle rtdder
 by youth, fail to turn far aside tc avoid danger to the rider, and in thus turning the automobilist endangers others behind him as well as himself The utter thoughtlessness of youth, and the ordinarily easy handling of the bicycle makes riders of them feel that they can turn out of danger any minute. Usually they do, but the anxiety caused by their unexpected movements is great.
 The rider of bicycle should ob- serve every traffic rule which applies to automobiles. He should keep a direct line as far as possible, extend- ing his arm in the direction he in- tends to turn, and indicating when he is going to stop. He should pass cars going in his direction, on the left; he should pass approaching car to the right; he should make no sudden turns, and in his properly slow turns he should indicate his intention as drivers of automobiles should do, and he should observe the instructions of traffic policemen as automobilists are forced to do. Many of these things the rider of bicycle cannot do if he is carrying another on the wheel for he is forced to use both hands if he would steer his machine properly. It Is for this reason that double rid ing" of bicycles ought to be stopped except on highways or roads where there is very little traffic.
 One recognizes the hopeessness of making observance of these rules universal. It is only possible to plead earnestly with those who ride wheels to plesd in words that seem pain fully weak-that they will not bring danger to themselves and constant fear to drivers of automo obiles, by fail- ing to observe the common-sense rules of the road.

local business; The manufacturers
 wise in these matters, are aware oi the fact.
 | Babson calls attention to the fact
 that 20 years ago the great news item affecting industries, commerce and
 business in general was the monthly report of the crop situation. while to- day such an interest no longer exists. The farming centers are depressed "A bushe of grain must bring in as much as 1t brought in pre-war times before the country can have real properity."
 At first 1t would seem that all this does not affect New Britain. But re- turning to the illustration of.the pros- perity of this country depending in a measure upon the prosperity of Eur ope, it may be seen that the prosperi- ty of a manufacturing center funda- mentally is affected by the prosperity of the farming center, quite as Eur ope's condition is affected by the pros- perity or lack of it of one great na- tion of Europe, and the prosperity of the worl1 including the United States, is affected by the economic condition of all the different nations of the world. For, today, it is the world which must be considered, even from selfish viewpoint and the wise saying United We Stand, Divided We Fall," might well be seized upon by world leaders as the truth.
