 in showing he wisdom of admitting,
 too. that there was some good in the
 habits of the past. The moment we ccas" to stamp a custom as bad mere ly because it is q relic of the old days, We lose certain part of the fear Of that old custom and are ready to ac- ccpt the new in it's place if there is wisdom in the new.
 Reference has been made to the in- diNiduals who are favoring a return 10 the old gust oms by certain peoples on the ground that such peoples were better off under the old regime than they are under the new, 1t is the belief, gradually gaining ground. that happy mean" would be the best way out of the dilemlna-a holding to the old things that were good, or a modification of them to meet present conditions. and at the same time adopting tho good that has come from the new. In other words it represents the height Of narrowncss to approve only the now and invariably 10 dis approve of thc old merely because it is old.
 A story last night told of the fact that today would be "circus day" Of course the elephants would not look so large 10 us today as they did years ago: the wild beasts would not seem half so wild. nor the clowns half so funny.

l wonder who remembers
 Those things called 'chestDut bells" That used to fasten with pin
 Upon our coat-lapels, And when some fellow told joke
 That we had heard before, We used to tinllle on our bells
 And everyone would roar. And then there was another craze.
 When chestnut bells were over, That had us pop-eyed for a while.
 A game called "Pigs-in-Clover." They sold them by the million then;
 It sure was going strong, When suddenly we dropped the thing
 And all took up Ping-Pong. Each stunt in turn we thought the best,
 Each puzzle, game or bell, But whether things like that will last,
 Is something none can tell, And, maybe, twenty years from now
 Wen hear the same old song Remember how we all went nuts, - That year, about Nah Jong?"

London. May 2O.-Sir Edward Eoschon, the man to whom Chancel- tor von Bothmann-Hl Hlolweg is reputed to have characterized the Belgium neutrality treaty as "a scrap Of pa per" died at his home here today. Sir Edward entered the British diplo- matic service in 1869, and at the out break of the war was British ambas- aador al Berlin. taking a prominent rart in the negotiations there in which the German chancellor yainly tried to ensure England's neutrality in the impending conflict.

ENTHU SIASM FOR SAFETY

Recently in the reports of meeting inspired by the desire to reduce tho number of motor vehicle accidents the remark was made that not until there was real enthusiasm for safety on the part Of drivers of motor vehi- cles, would true safety co'ne. The per petrator of that remark had the right idea.
 It has been suggested frequently in these columns, dating as far back as three years ago, that safety would come when the reckless driver be- came social outlaw, and practically q boycott was started against him. Many times person does not refrain from doing something merely because there is a law against it. Often the disrespect in which he is held will have more influence upon him than will the danger of being arrested and fined. The obtaining of an operator's license is case in point. There arc many people driving the streets today who have neglected to have their opera tors licenses renewed. Yet they do not boast Of the fact. We're they to be in an accident and the request made to see their license. failure to have il would cost ten dollars and costs, whereas 1t would cast them but two dollars to get their license in the regular way. Of course the possession Of license does not make a person a better driver, provided he has had one in the first place, but the instance is cited merely as case where. as a rulo, a person gets his or her license more because it is the right thing to do, rather than because the law re- quires il,
 The State Police association, which is not connected with tho motor eehi- clos department, but which. of course, is in thorough sympathy with fl. is considering a matter which has been left out of consideration of inc traffic accidents too long. lt is now propos. ed that thorough examination of motor vehicles in the cities be made to ascertain the condition Of their safety appliances. Cars on public streets with wobbly wheels or other wise appearing to be unsafe are to be Inspected, it is planned. Ii is said that many reports Of accidents are made 10 the motor vehicle department where people have taken chances with poor brakes. This is but one part of . car which needs attention, and il- illustrates how much there is 10 do if the greatest degree of precaution is 10 bs taken to reduce thrconstant traffic accident menace. And at the same time there might well be cultivated A spirit Of enthusiasm for care and an outlaeing Of the habitually careless driver.
