@AUTOMOBILE@
Right Of Way

Probably no rule of law has been
so abused and given rise to such
unbridled license on the part of au-
tomobile operators as that giving
certain operators the right of way
at intersecting streets. The gem
eral principle underlying the pro-
Der operatiOn of an automobile is
that the driver thereof should avoid
accidents and not that he should
merely be right. No other driving
circumstances afford the same op-
portunity for the exercise Of decent
courtesy and good judgment as that
supplied by the right angle cross
ing, and at no other point is the
want of such qualities by our mo-
toring public so flagrantly exhibit
ed. No man who deliberately drives
his automobile in front of car rap
idly approaching the intersection
at right angles with him, merely
because he happens to reach the
crossing slightly before the other
or because the other vehicle is ap-
preaching from his left, can be re-
garded as a fit person to operate an
automobile. The fact that he is
right may avail him in a court of
law a year or so after the happen
ing of the accident, but it will not
restore his life or those of his pas
sengers and will certainly have no
greater beneficial effect for the op-
orator and occupants of the other
machine. The absolute insistence
upon motorists rights at street
intersections is not only an act of
the grossest discourtesy, but may
also be the height of folly, or it
may turn out, in many instances,
that he will be Just as dead as if

NEW TELEPHONE POLE
LINES In HOLLY OAK
Height of Poles Being Raised
Joint Use With Electric
Company

About three hundred telephone poles
are to be placed along Faulk Road,
Silverside Road and Naaman's Road
in the Holly Oak section by the Dia-
mond State Telephone Company.
This was the recent announcement
of R. L. Dodge, District Superintend-
ent of Plant for the Telephone Com
pany. Mr.. Dodge explained that these
new poles will provide a means for
carrying additional telephone lines and
for replacing other poles that have out
lived their usefulness here.
The new pole lines will be thirty
five feet high instead of twenty-five
feet. This will enable them to be used
jointly with the Electric Light Com
pany, who are expanding their plant
in this growing section. Higher poles
and joint usage by the Telephone Com
pany and the Electric Light Company
will provide more space for the accom-
mediation of lines and will eliminate
the need for two pole lines along the
same roads.
Work will be started in the near
future.

he had been wrong" One of our
largest taxicab companies has
adopted for it's several thousand
drivers a strict rule which requires
them to slow down and give the
right of way at all crossings, re-
gardless of the circumstances, and
this display of road courtesy might
well be copied by the rest of the
motoring public. 1t means the loss
of only a few seconds time and not
only saves the courteous operator
from accident, but should give to all
but the lowest type of driver that
pleasureable sense of having been
"a gentleman, no matter how pain
full"
Laying aside the question of good
taste, safety and good judgment for
moment, it is doubtful if the av-
erage motOrist realizes how little
the mere possession of the right of
way would avail him at the trial
of a case arising from an accident
at right-angle crossing; for the
privilege conferred by right of way
is not infexible and absolute. 1t
will possibly avail to establish pre-
cedence when the rights of parties
are otherwise exactly balanced, but
its legal effect is surprisingly small
in cases when without it the bal
ance is unequal. A right of way
may turn the scales if when the
motorist attempts to cross, the cars
are equi-distant or nearly 500 from
the point of the collision, due re-
gard being had also for the speed
OF their approach. If this is not
so, a right of way is merely an ele-
ment which the jury may consider
in their estimate of the conduct OF
the parties.

Accompanied by three men, Mr.
Kimmel is now at work in the Dover
area. Two of the men precede the
inspector, dig out the earth around
the poles and cut off all rotten wood
below the ground line. Kimmel fol
lows them and measures the circum-
ference of the pole. From table of
statistics he can then computate the
life of the pole. If it is not good for
five years it is marked for replace
ment.
A week later when the wood is dried
the poles are sprayed below the ground
line with a creosote solution which
keeps off animal life injurious to the
