The only solution for the many
traffic problems, in the city or on
country highways, is the constant ex-
ercise of a little common sense and
courteous respect for the rights of
others. When alone a motorist has a
right to slow down to four miles an
hour and enjoy all the beauty of na-
ture that unfolds before his eyes. But
this is not true when the highway is
crowded and when scores of Impatient
motorists want to step modestly on

stretch of road.

AITF.R THE IlOAD-MOl'E.
Up in Massachusetts the proposal
to exclude the road-mope from the
highways on Sundays and holidays is
being considered. A road-'tiope is
defined as a man or woman motori&t
who drives along a narrow thorough-
fare at a slow rate of speed and thus
sets the pace for all other motorists
coming tip from behind, since the road
is so narrow that there isn't room for
other motorists to swing around in
lront. The problem the Massachu-
setts motorists are facing is thus pre-
sented by Registrar of jflotor Vehicles
Goodwin of that state:
"Between Beverly and Ipswich I
suddenly foupd that our automobile
waif at the end of a line of about
twenty cars, traveling twelve miles an
hour. Way up at the head of this
line was a small car moving along
with nothing ahead of it as far as
could be seen. The road was straight,
no intersections, and only wide enough
for two lines of travel. Coining the
other way was a steady stream of au-
tomobiles. In a short time a num-
ber of ears accumulated behind ours
and pretty soon both ahead of us and
behind us people began to cut out and
X saw many narrow escapes. As the
cars ahead of us gradually passed tho
small car, we eventually came up and
lound a lady driving. We went its
far as the town beyond Newburyport,
and then turned back. When well
this side of Newburyport we were
again tied up in line, and I found it
was the same woman. I sent for her
to come into the office and told her
that indirectly a person driving twelve
miles an hour on the State highway on
a Sunday or holiday with heavy traf-
fic was more of a menace than some
of the people who were going twenty-
five or thirty miles an hour. She,
however, held to the belief that It was
proper to operate at that rate of
speed."
Traffic laws in various states are
becoming so complicated that motor-
ists everywhere are having about as
much peace as the proverbial toad
under a harrow. The man who drives
too fast is admittedly a menace; the
person who drives at a snail's pace ii
a bore. There is a happy medium, of
course, between the two speeds, but
even that doesn't suit some motorists.
Certain liberty of action is guaranteed
under our constitution and when a
motorist starts upon the main routes
of travel on a Sunday afternoon or
holiday he goes only "in the pursuit
of happiness," and therefore thinks
that the Constitution permits him to
assume any pace he cares to and hold
it. If he wants to creep along, well
and good. Nobody else should be in
any bigger hurry than he is. If they
do drive faster, he holds, they endan-
ger their own lives and the lives of
others In the car with them. The
road belongs to the public and he's
got as much right there as anybody
else, and can do just as he pleases.
In theory he is exactly right. But
in practice he becomes a pest. There
is no argument in favor of break-
neck sperd upon pretty stretches of
road, yet there is no excuse for atty
motorist getting ia the lead In a nar-
15.11) BUSINESS AN1) POOR
POLITICS.
Up in Missouri the Goddess of Lib-
erty will replace the donkey as the
democratic emblem in the coming
%
campaign. This was decided upon at
a recent meeting of the state demo-
cratic executive committee, which held
that "the donkey as an emblem is
neither artistic nor dignified" and that
the Goddess of Liberty is much more
appropriate.
Right there is where the democracy
of Missouri crosses the path of the old
Jeffersonian sort of democracy. Will
loyal democrats of old stand for their
donkey being kicked around? Not
only that, but will they stand idly by
and see the cherished old emblem
turned out in desert lands to suffer
and die?
The democratic party stands for
everything the Goddess of Liberty
signifies but still it seems hardly eth-
ical from a patriotic standpoint for a
political party to adopt the statue as
a political emblem. As bad as a re-
publican administration may be most
of us are still liberal enough to admit
that republicans as a rule cherish the
Goddess of liberty as much as we
do. Thus it is bad business when
democracy undertakes to kidnap the
Goddess and parade her down the
muddy political lanes that long have
been faithfully trod by the tradition-
al donkey. Fact is, most of us have
too much respect for her to want to
do that.
Democracy may take on new fan-
gled principles here and sponsor ultra-
progressive policies there and so long
as the majority agrees all Is well; but
when it comes tcf discarding the don-
key as the official emblem, right there
is where we kick over the traces.
You say the donkey is not dignified?
It is to laugh!

KWTOKIAL OF THE DAV
The Additional Judges.
The increase by twenty-five of the
number of federal judges is a welcome
and important matter at this time.
There is a good deal of business to be
taken care of. Litigation in volume
has grown out of the war, and the
volume is likely to grow larger for
some time to come.
The bench, federal or state, should
never be short. There should always
be judges enough to give prompt at-
tention to all business presented.
This has not been the case for years.
Complaints of congested dockets have
often been heard and efforts made to
remedy the trouble.
At last we have action as to the fed-
eral bench. It may not be sufficient,
but It is a start, and warrants the
hope that if still more judges are nec-
essary they will be provided from time
to time as the need Is demonstrated.
'The law's delay" is an old and
famous phrase, and has often been ac-
counted an evil with many ramifica-
tions. It has even been pleaded as a
left-handed justification for lynchings.

acterized the mob spirit as an impati-

"Here's a book you'd like to read,
Andrew," said Imogone as she closed
it. It's about a man and a woman
who were wrecked on either side of
what was before they came, an unin-
habited South Sea Island and their
adventures there; you like such
things."
"Yes,"« said Andrew, puffing his
cigarette for a moment, "but I guess
1 will not read it. I like such books
too well. Since the days when I grad-
uated from Robinson Crusoe and Swiss
Family Robipson and got Into Steven-
son's Mysterious Island, I have read
many, but of recent years I have
shunned them as a reformed drun ■
kard does the rye high-ball.
"They are bad for me.
"I read one of those books and for
days my mind Is cluttered up with
cat boats, white spume running on
lea rail, nodding cocoanut palms and
parrots chattering among the hibiscus
blooms. *
"In me, as in manjr another man,
there runst a streak of love of the
primitive, a desire to throw back to
the simple life of the forest and sea.
I am unfit for my work for a lting
time after I read such a book and
had best stay away from them.
"They make me hate the shackles
of civilization, cause me to want to
make faces at the clock, to swear at
the calendar and loath the fact that
notes, rents and obligations fall due
at certain times and that I am hedg-
ed in my responsibilities that cannot
be shaken off.
"The fact is, dearie, that the world
holds no greater joke than your hus-
band in evening clothes and a top hat.
I am in durance vile and my longing
is for dungarees and bare feet; that I
may stand in the 84ml and work it
between my toes,
"I hate the sound of the city, the
noise of the automobiles, the clang of
the different gongs at the crossings
mingled with the shrill whistles of the
traffic cop remind me of the fact
that my liberty is gone since the da."

LIFE'S SEASONS
Troubles come and troubles go,
Never lingering very long,
First tho winter with its snow,
Then the springtime wi\h Its song.
Then the summer filled with bloom,
Happy Mkics above us nil,
Then a day of dnrk and gloom
And the first cold frost of fall.
Winter follows, K.ng and tlrear,
Bitterly the blizzards roar,
Then a robin'a aong we hear
And the spring has come once more.
So with us, whoe'er we be.
Trouble frets us for awhile.
Hurt and grief fall bitterly.
Then it comes our time to smile.
Joy is followed by the tear,
frtlef and all its hours of pain,
Then a friendly voice we hear-

I became a dwelier among the cities
and left the peaceful lanes of the
country where exists the only endur-
able life inside of civilization.
"I do not believe a red-blooded man
ever lived who did not at some time
long to throw down his job and run,
run from his home life even, desert
his business and simply go to his par-
ticular kind of dogs.
"Every man has his dogs that is n

that and the other kind of dogs, but
my dogs I guess are best typified by
the beach combers who idle away their
lives along the shores of these self-
sane South Sea Islands that your book
tells about and in the still watches of
the night when the sieep refuses to
come I lie and dream of these places
and long to cut and run for them.
"The habits of civilization are on
me. I am as firmly clutched in thelj'
iron grasp as a slave is to his shack-
les. I can never go but as a glimpse
of freedom that makes the slave's life
more dreary, so also does one of these
books make my shackles chafe and
grind and makes my mind wander
from the tasks which are stiil only a
solution of a higher and more com-
plicated type of the same bread and
butter problem which faces every man
and bea^t that lives.
