FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 1923 GLARING HEADLIGHTS "Blinded by the glaring head- lights of an approaching auto, he lost control of his own ca^, which, leaving^lhe^roadr crashedTiead- long into the culvert wall. It then rolled down the steep em- bankment, the gasoline tank ex- ploded, and all the occupants etc., etc." An every day occurrence! What can be done to decrease the frequency? Several things. Lights need not be turned on so early as they often are. Post- pone the use of lights until they are needed; leave it to individual drivers to decide just when that shall be. The habit that many motorists have of turning on the lights at sundown is foolish and ought not to be supported by law or custom. Don't use "full" lights unless . they are really needed. Some drivers use the "glares" on slight provocation. Often this frequent use becomes a fixed habit and such drivers become foolishly de- pendent on full illumination. , Half blind drivers ought not to motor at night. Some headlight lenses are less offensive than others, throw- fing the light down and ahead. Finally, headlight 4aws should be enforced more;: rigorously^ Let us aH do what we can to lessen the terrors of night driv- ing on crowded highways. Put yourself in the place of the other man. LISTENING It takes at least two to make a bargain, a fight, or a concert. ^Which explains why Adam's bachelor days were so uninter- esting. In those sad days before the advent of Eve he had nobody isfetto bargain with, quarrel with, or talk to. No audience! Think of poor Adam talking to the apple trees and the Snake! If our memory is sound, it was the Lord tKaT spoke to Adam; and no back talk from Adam. 4;fe"__i ^ -â€"- Good listeners art aTa premi- um. Everybody wants a good 4 $.., listener. "Lend mje your-ears" I is a universal request. Did you ever hear of anybody asking to be talked to? Noj we're all look- a trig-for sympathetic ears. "I!: "Creative listeners" is a phrase that describes the invaluable func- tion of the audience.

THE OAKWOOD TRACT It is gdod to learn that Wil- mette is aroused to the need of acquiring the Oakwood tract for park purposes. Space available for building is fast being occupied: If natural beauty spots suitable for park purposes are to be bought, now is the time to agitate the matter. In view of the rapid spread of population in Wilmette the ques- ionrabout this forest tract isâ€" Can we afford not to buy it? There are many things we can afford not to buy. Is this one of them? If the price is too high we can afford not to buy it. If it can be put to better use we can afford not to buy it. Let us read carefully the cir- cular setting forth the facts re- garding the possible purchase-of -HsM«* the tract. If it looks good to us let us sign the petition and work to acquire for Wilmette the beau- tifully wooded tract. NORTH SHORE JOYS We spent last Sunday from nine in the morning till about six in the evening riding in a day coach from St. Paul to Milwau- kee. Nine hours of being baked and coated with cinders and grimy dust! We saw a stretch of Wisconsin about three hundred miles long. After having the al- ternative of open window as against suffocation, we had no de- sire except to reach Milwaukee and Lake Michigan. And when at last the beautiful old lake came intq view, pur- gatory suddenly opened into par- adise. What a divine change! Only those can knowâ€"it-jvin toothache has suddenly ceased, whose boil and swollen tonsils have been lanced. "There's only one North Shore!"
