HOW ACCIDENTS HAPPEN

The tragic rise in the automobile death toll during
1880 not any longer Everyone knows by this time
that more than 32 600 Americans were killed in traffic ac
cdents during the past year. and no more emphasis is
needed
However, the Travellers Insurance Co. recently issued
an analysis of all traffic accidents involving death or in
jury ana the 1gures set forth worth bit study
by examining them we can get pretty good line on just
"hat the hazards of the highway really are
For example, in tabulatng the motor vehicle acct
ueS resulting IN DEATH it found that nearly 46 per
cent OF them involved collision between an automobile
and pedestrian. The secondargest grouninq was
Soh between two automobiles which accounted for more
man ~ per cent of the total In third place were acc
uelitS IN winch no collision involved-skds off the
PROBABLY upsets and the like These accounted for
sl p ' u tne 1atal accidents Eleven per cent were
eo oS collision between auto and some fixed oh
Ject such telephone pole or building The ran,aini
nine per cent were due to varity of causes
Even more light is gained in study of fatal accidents
lat were due to improper driving Of these 3O8 per
cent came because drivers refused to grant the rghtof
way 10 otherS VINO were entitled to it nearly 25 per cent
were oue TO speeding and 16 per cent were causd b
ing on the wrong sid of the road These three foil ~
all characteristics of the road hog"and aooo+bo +

during the year approximately 143OO pedestrians

HARD TIMES A MYTH? =?
A worthwhile editorial, selected by the National
Editorial Association)

What's all this talk of "hard times that is on nearly
every tongue? Is it myth, mob deusion, is it
acuay? Most of the complaining is done by the re-
gular merchants and stable business Maybe they
have for complaint.
Why?
However, on the other hand, have not noticed that
the theaers in this territory have closed for lack of pat
ronage. Dance halls to attract the usual crowd at
the standard admission price. Service oil stations have
increased supposedly because people buying more
gasoline than formerly Amusement not by
any means deserted Saturday andSunday nights.
In the basis of this observation, why the holler of
money conditions geing "tight?" Let examine few
factors which the fact of to be fundamental in
contributing to this so-called economic depression.
Buying power of the has not decreased notice
ably but that people spend money differently
day than in yeseryears More automobiles are used
to every five people, statistics say necessarily greater
amount of money spent for gasoines oils tires
sories and other ncidentas with or as result
of being speed-minded
This is not saying anything either against the
practices other than to show money goes
channels than formerly, which may have bearing upon
present conditions.
1t seems that people more pleasure-bent than
formerly consequently, legitimate articles done
without in order to get of life There has been
tendency to eat less to cut down living expenses while
spending the saved for the divers form of entertain
ment and incidental pleasure excursions
AS result the grocer, the baker and the merchant
usual volume of trade reduced to some extent
which attributed to hard tines In this tend
to avoid necessary obligations to take advantage
of the unnecessary expenses" a have deve-
oped the characteristic symptoms of the spendthrift
We are becoming a nation of pleasure-bent work
shirking, night-clubites?
People talk, and what people talk of is infectious We
also like to believe what being talked about be it hard
times" economic depression what not Sometimes we
believe until it hurts and then wish to forget about it.
The reality painful boring and cruel How to es
cape it? Go to movie. Forget the 18th Amendment
Indulge in the frvoity of night club Dance capti-
vatnig music In this we have showed reality aside
Momentariy have forgotten about the being
the demands of the grocer the doctors BILL the merchants
reminder, and we happy.
Let's quit living world of make believe face facts
and struggle with reaes.-Gazette, (Redwood Falls)
