Enforce the Traffic Laws. Muzzle the Dogs. Build the Truck Road. "WHAT MORE CAN WE DOT9 - Especially when a man of ap- parently mature intelligence crosses the track directly in the path of a north bound Milwaukee Limited. What makes the case more hopeless is that before he ran across, he saw the train coming, about twenty feet away. The only reason--there is no ex- cuse--for his doing so reckless, so thoughtless an act, was that in the excitement of the moment the im- pulse to cross seized him and, al- most literally, shoved him onto the fails. THe explained his action: "I saw the train coming. I knew what I was doing. Didn't I make it ?" Yes, but what about the motor- man who was driving the Limited? How did he feel when he saw a man deliberately step onto the track and leisurely trot across? Did he, this motorman, have no imagina- tion, no sympathy, no instinct of fear? Was it human to harrow the feelings of a fellow man? "What more can the North Shore Line do?" Provide men and women tilth foresight ? No. I Let us not tempt death! If there is the slightest doubt as to whether a certain movement will endanger life or limb uselessly, let's not take it. SAFETY FIRST! "DONT INVITE THEM!" Don't invite thieves to come in and help themselves. Foolish ad- vice? Buf it's needed by people who when leaving for a vacation fail to stop the delivery of a newspaper. It lies on the porch or sidewalk all dav long telling the passers-by that the house is empty and un- guarded. Come in and help your- self ! A tough member of society, walking by, sees the paper and sizes up the opportunity. He en- ters quietly, by window or cellar door, inspects the interior, and leisurely decides what is worth taking. He makes his get-away easily. Two or three weeks later the family returns to the looted home. The police are notified. But what can they do when the scent is ice cold? No, the only reasonably certain way not to notify burglars of your absence is to cancel the newspaper delivery. ROAD IDEALS The twelve point program for the maintenance and improvement of north shore highways west of Wilmette and Evanston is certainly very thorough. The committee which drew up the program is rep- resentative, being made up of ten men, two selected from each of the five golf clubs directly interested in these roads. With Dempster, Main, and Glen- view highways concreted clear to the Waukegan road, and a thirty- foot concrete pavement on each side of the drainage canal from Wil- mette avenue to Lawrence to divert traffic from Evanston--with these improvements made, the country transportation problems of both communities will be well on the way to solution. * "YES, WE HAVE------" !;. This phrase, tremendously vivid just now, makes us think of the f el- low who is very sweet and cordial and willing but who cannot, just now, give you what you may need. He's the human being who does things that require no work. Very energetic in doing nothing. But when it comes to doing real work-- (direction. "Very sorry, but we have a house full of company. Anytime I can do anything, be sure to let me know." There's at least one of these in every office, or organization, indi- viduals who are strong on discus- sion, suggestion, and advice, but weak on work. If they would only say, "No, we have no" etc! If there were only a few more .plain dealers! "KEEP MOVING" One who is not used to making his way through moving crowds waits for an exceptionally favorable opening. But the experience^ city man bores right through the crowd without decreasing his pace. Like a well trained foot ball player he takes advantage of each oppor- tunity. With remarkable ease he steps in behind a man at the crowd's edge. He slips past him and with increased speed uses the "interfer- ence" of a fellow pedestrian to pierce to the very heart of the inter- secting mass. For a fraction of a second he follows the throng. A chance comes to dart clear through. He takes it. He is past the crowd. He did it by keeping in the right Do we likewise take advantage of all the little opportunities? The basket of gladioli, roses and ferns was beautiful to look upon, hut its comeliness was eclipsed by the handsome face and figure be- side it. The face and figure belong- ed to EartC.
