precedent in the reporting of the news of
tragedies of the highways now being gen.
orally adopted by newspapers large and
small everywhere.
Instead of the customary "skull frac-
ture," broken ribs" fractured arms and
legs" and internal injuries" reports of &C.
cidents today carry more lurid terms. The
reader is not spared the bloody realities of
Dashed heads, crushed chests and mangled
limbs. Even the heart-touching converse
ton while bodies are being removed from
the scene is used when available.
Cruel as some of this reporting appears,
it is time we faced the CORY facts, time we
realized that the scene Of an automobile &C
cident often is as horrible as battlefield.
And it's time we remembered that cars have
killed more Americans than have all the
wars in our history.

opinion that one open season a year is

birds this winter, if the snow is as deep as
usual, donations were asked for in careful
