Maine Gossip
After the Circus
By Albert T. Reid

I can remember how the memory
OF fat-hipped women and strong
Chalky horse;
And men in rcd and gold hung heavily
From rafters in my eyes. how other
forces
Recruited among peanuts and popped
Marched in my middle. 1 remember
A miserable sense of having worn
TOO small hat. so that my dizzy brow
Eecled in the settling DUST behind the
mare
AS We rolled homeward up the river
breeze,
Pursued by blasts of trumpcts and the
OF white lights hanging among high
trarcZe.
Yet. Tor relief, l have still mere in
mind
How a great bird I mover hoped to see
With wings like winds of storm that
heat me blind
Flow up and startled both the mare
So great the power of it's sudden flight
The very day was altered and my brain
Burst from its bonds and followed the
slopcd light
On through the NAPLES TO the bird
again. 2 ST.
And then the look Of clowns and the
blare of brass
Was gone and something came TO the
roads edge
And the breath OF it blow petals to the
grass n
And it took me in it's arms and sang a
pledge ~
l have not vet forgotten into me.
SO much for circuscs or for any event.
The coming away is the reality,
The coming to ones self is what is
meant.

new road has already begun. The
work of laying the macadam and
asphalt cover, as we'll as the con-
struction of a bridge to carry the
roadway across Rock Creek, will fol-

TWO-MINUTE TALK ON
SAFETY.
No. 25.
GASOLINE AND WHISKY.

1ASOLINE AND WHISKY
The chemists have found that
certain liquids when mixed
cause explosions which may
have very serious results.
Coroners' juries have found
that gasoline and whisky when
carried in the same automo-
bile produce one of the most
serious combinations and haz-
ards of our streets and roads.
A few months ago high
powered auto, racing through
a suburban street. came to
sudden stop against a tree on
the sidewalk, demolishing the
machine. After taking one pas
senger, young girl. to the
morgue. several others to the
hospital and the driver to Jail,
the mute evidence that gaSo-
line and whisky won't mix was
found in the shape of several
empty quart bottles.
The man or woman who at
tempts to operate an automo-
bile while under the influence
of liquor is just as much
criminal as the man who de-
liberately shoots a gun into a
crowd or is willing to kill in
order to commit robbery. Such
a person, whether he actually
causes an accident or not,
should have his license revoked
and thus be prohibited from
again driving a car. He should
also be committed to Jail for
sufficient time to cure him of
his criminal practices.
The trade in illict liquor,
which has increased in the past
few years, has produced new
type of criminal. a person usu-
ally of a degraded type of mind
who has found an easy way of
obtaining large sums of money.
He cares nothing for the rights
or privileges or even lives of
others and risks everything to
: sell liquor, obtain and spend
money. Until our streets are
rid of such maniacs, our citi-
zenS will be subject to their
reckless driving and can only
protect themselves on the
streets by avoiding as far as
possible all machines whose
course and speed indicate that
they are driven by drunken and
insane drivers and by assisting
in the arrest and conviction of
persons of this type.
Mothers, discourage Joy
rides: they frequently end in
funerals, because gasoline and
whisky won't mix.
