NOISE
(From Miami Herald)

x% So = X =
In many ways Miami is growing
to be more staid and civilized
city. We are none of us, of course,
! absolutely civilized, and when we
say Miami is becoming more civil
lied we simply mean that the city
is rapidly adjusting itself to the
conditions brought about by rapid
growth and the assimilation of
many new people.
But there are still many things
to do before we can make life alb
solutely comfor able and easy in
the city. Among the things that
ought to receive attention is the
amount of noise that it seems some
people think necessary to enable
them to get along.
Miami is altogether too noisy
city, even if we are building
largely and rapidly and even if
we have not solved all the prob
lens incident to street traffic.
1t is hardly possible, of course,
to eliminate the loud chatter of
the pneumatic riveters that make
life almost uncomfortable in the
vicinity of the many new buildings
that are being constructed. No
means have ever been devised that
would lessen the nerve-racking
noises incident to construction,
and we would not have construc-
tion stopped for any reason
whatever.
But there are lot of noises that
could be and should be eliminated.
Automobile drivers are among
the worst offenders. The driver
who needlessly blows his horn con-
tribu es to the city noises an ele-
ment that is particularly annoying.
There is seldom occasion for the
use of the horn. 1t is an emer-
gency instrument and should be
used in emergencies only.
Then the. driver who operates
his machine with the cut-ou open
is particular obnoxious offender.
Perhaps the huge truck cannot be
operated without an open muffler,
and the grinding of the gears and
the noise of the wheels and all thai
ought to indicate that those ma
chimes should be operated at a
slower gait, so that they would not
be so noisy as they are at pres
ent.
Trucks, heavily loaded with iron
and steel, ought to be compelled
to use some sort of padding for
their loads that would eliminate a
particularly aggravating kind of
noise.
And so on through quite a Est
of noise producing instrumental
ties that could be modified or abol-
ished.
There is a solid reason for at
tempting to maintain as little noise
as possible in the city in the effect
noise has upon the nerves of the
people. Life at best is strenuous
and many men and women wear
out before their time because of
the high tension at which they are
compelled to live. Noise adds to
that tension and aside from the
comfort that a quiet city would
afford, is the ques ion of health
and longer life for all.
If people who produce the noise
would have consideration for
those that live about them much
Of the vexatious things that occur
every day should be eliminated and
life would be happier and freer
than it now is.
