HOW IT STARTED

When you meet some one on the
sidewalk, why do you pass to the right
instead of the left? Because you learn
ed in childhood that such is the Gus
tom. But why is it the custom?
Two prehistoric cave men have
met on a trail through the jungle.
They are suspicious of each other,
watching for the first sign of a posi-
BILE attack The patch is narrow.
Each keeps to the right, so that the
right hand-carry1ng the war club
will be where the stranger has least
opportunity for grabbing it prepare
tory to swing his own murderous club.
So, too came the custom of extend
ing the right hand in greeting for a
handshake. The offering Of the right
hand, without it's weapon, signi1ed
trust.
Ancient days are forgotten. But
their customs live on.-Arkansas City

TO SAVE. HUMAN LEE.

Figures recently compiled by auth
critics throughout the country indi-
cate that the toll in life and injury
traceable to automobiles and other
motor driven vehicles has nearly if
not quite doubled during the past
three years,
The alarming situation is being
daily aggravated by the enormous
output of the factories and the
general tendency for every family
to own a pleasure vehicle of some
sort. Traffic and police heads over
the country have puzzled over pos
sible solutions to the perplexing prob
lem, but it continues to battle the best
minds.
The truth of the matter is that
the public, neither that portion OF
it which drives nor that which walks
has taken the matter to heart as it
must before anything tangible can
be accomplished. The whole PROPOSE
ton of it is one which demands en-
tire cooperation Of the people. Road
hogs" speed demons" and Gay driv-
ers'', vii continue to evade the law
so long as those who are specifically
designated to punish the offenders
are aloof.
The chief trouble lies in the fact
that drivers OF cars are prone to re
gard other peoples children in a diff
erent light than they would wish
their own children to be regarded
There is too little Of humanity actu-
ating the guilty ones and too much
OF spirit Of getting by the law.
Whatever the solution, something
must be done and done right shortly
