BabCOCk FayOrS
Wiping Out of
Speed Limits
20 MILES AN HOUR MAY BE
MORE DANGEROUS THAN As.
HE SAYS; WILL ATTEND THE
SAFETY CONFERENCE.

Summoned to Washington to Pres
ident Coolidge's national conference
on street and highway safety March
1925, Charles M. Babcock, state high
way commissioner, this week accept
ed the call and made an advance
statement of ways and means that in
his view will most effectively reduce
highway dangers to life and proper
ty.
Mr.. Babcock advocates
Holding every driver to strict ac-
countability for his conduct on pub
lie thoroughfares emphasizing indi-
vidual responsibility with blanket
law carrying heavy penalties for all
infractions of the rights of others OF
the public.
Universal adoption of the principle
among others, that any vehicle which
cannot at all times be brought to a
full stop in the clear space ahead is
being recklessly operated.
Repeal of present regulations, par
ticularly speed limitations, found to
lack necessary flexibility to fit the
large number of situations and tend
ing to create disrespect for law.
Continuation of newspaper publicity
towaro promoting high safety, in
stitution of juvenile traffic courts in
schools, stiffening of penalties for
reckless minority" in regular courts,
and other moves to keep safety con-
stantly in the minds Of adults and
children
"Set speed limitations should be
wiped out because they cannot be
made sufficiently flexible" said Mr.
Babcock. "A 2O-mile pace may be
more dangerous than a 45-nnile rate
under other conditions. Reasonable
speed of safety and toward reducing
speed is to be encouraged both in the
interest of safety and toward reduc-
ing traffic congestion"
Mr.. Babcock declared against lax
enforcement Of laws and said that
whatever recommendations may be
reached must carry ample machinery
for rigid enforcement.

AT LAST MEETING OF

EDUCATION BIG ESSENTIAL
DEAN OF SCHOOL OF AGRICUL-
TURE URGES CULTURE ON
FARMS; F. w. PECK SUG-
GESTS PARTNERSHIP

Friday afternoon the Fourth Club
assembled at the Lincoln School audi
torium to hear the last cf series of
club lessons arranged by County
Agent Sheldon. Due to the bad
weather the attendance was not as
large as anticipated, only twenty-five
members being present. Dean w. c..
Coffey of the University Farm School
was the speaker at the preliminary
meeting before the lesson and gave a
splendid address on Education. He
used as his theme, "What are our
children going to do in life," showing
that education of the right sort is
highly essential preparation for life.
Mr.. Coffey opened his talk stating
that when in school and out it is only
natural to think of what to do later.
1t is also only too natural for the
young people to try to establish a
profitable business early in life; this
to-be-desired feeling of independence
coming too early with some. "Many
people think that as soon as they are
out of high school or college that their
education has ended, but in reality it
has only begun" said the speaker.
"The qualities acquired through IN
dividual instruction and social train
ing can be used with the gained
strength of education to go on in the
next step of life"
what is education asked the
speaker. "Above all things, what is
our ideal of thoroughly liberal edu-
cation-of that education which, if
we were to begin life again, we would
give -ourselves-of that education
which, if we could mould the fates to
our own will, we would give our chill
dren? What is meant by education
is learning the rules of this mighty
game of life; in other words, educa-
tion is the instruction of the intellect
in the laws of Nature" said the
Dean. Education is the sum total
of all Of our experiences. The great
mass of mankind are those who pick
up just enough to get through with
out much discredit Those who won't
learn at all are "plucked," and they
can't come up again! Natures "pluck"
means extermination!"
This talk was followed by confer
ence of the young people with their
leaders, the girls meeting with Miss
