AUTO HONOR SYSTEMS CHERRY BLOSSOM TINE
Waupaca Starting Method of
Interest to Entire State.

An interesting experiment in
motor traffic management is be-
ing made this season in Waupaca
and some other Wisconsin com
munities. 1t is to affirmatively
advertise to drivers of automobiles
that the community maintains no
special offer to- apprehend motor
speeders, and the expectation is
that vehicles will feel more per-
sonal responsibility in maintain
ing safety, as we'll as acquiring a
more friendly feeling toward the
community and a lasting impress
sion of its hospitality.
1t is merely a proper reliance on
the right spirit of people who use
the highways. Years ago, auto
mobiles were rather outlawed in
public opinion. There were pro-
posals to- prohibit the gearing of
motor vehicles to make it possible
for them to move faster than 10
miles an hour. They were requir-
ed to draw away from the road
way and stop on signal from a
horse-drawn vehicle. State and To-
cal legislation was directed against
them, and the affliction of motor
lists was made a matter of public
revenue. Motorists still are per-
secuted, exploited and plundered
by some communities, w her e
speed traps" are maintained and
Justice courts" have contrived
means of unjust extortion.
Many communities have been
warning motorists far beyond the
points of any need for slow driv-
ing, but the tendency has been
away from restriction and in the
direction of assistance and expe.
dition of traffic.
The experiment of Waupaca in
assuming that motorists can be
trusted to observe reasonable re-
quirements of safety will be
watched with interest the country
over. If Waupaca's faith in motor
lists proves to be we'll placed
other communities will follow. II

public to play the game" anc

Spring in Chicago, according tt

is sixteen days late. We are a little
late up here too, but indications
are that we are going to have
good crops just the same. If we

"Vainly the flowers eye
Might mark thy distant flight to
do thee wrong
AS, darky seen against the Grim
son sky,
Thy figure floats along"
Vainly, ever so vainly, many a
hunter has sat in rushes and mud
up to his knees, his teeth chatter
ing some hunting song, and enter
tanned high hopes of just one shot.
| stood chattering those songs
till | acquired a jumping tooth
ache, then started frogging the
creek. The creek had several bends
and in places formed perfect
horse-shoes. In such bends NAL
lards like to dip, especially on a
day when it SHOWS occasionally.
When a hunter comes upon a
flock in a bend or hole he sneaks
up and gets a pot shot" AL
though | had hunted four hours
without so much as seeing bird
| was in high hopes of getting my
pot shot"
splashed along, and upon clear
ing a sharp bend saw the water
eddying and whirling about fifty
feet up creek. I ducked, mostly
from habit, and began initiating
a centipede in an effort to get to
the spot. | wormed and scratched
and slid till within good gun
range, then ventured about six
inches up from the ground to get
a peek at what it might be. All!
Right there in front of me were
ten of the incest green-heads,
plucking their feathers, and just
waiting for my gun. | ventured
up another six inches and diverted
gun, took careful aim and pulled
enough of my attention to- my gun
to get the safe off. | looked
again, worming my way closer.
There they sat! I raised my
CUNT ook careful aim, and pulled
the trigger. / jumped and shot;
the mallards and green-heads were
flying around me so that | hit one
with my gun barrel. In about ten
minutes the smoke cleared away,
and / saw one cripple across the
creek. Of all the foolish people!
I had been using number six shot
just giving the mallards a lit
tie winging exercise.
| decided to clear away before a
real hunter came along and gave
me his opinion. I'd probably have
been the eleventh green-head in
his estimation.
