Yet the eary settlers took no foolish chances. They
built stockades for protection, and they kept their
powder dry. Military men speak of the calculated
risk, which means that the chance of success has been
weighed carefully against the danger of failure.
That is what the air line pilot meant when he
confessed fear. Not timidity. His was intelligent fear
— the knowledge that there are forces continuously
at work to trap the on wary, that his experience and
■kill might be tested and found wanting.
Such intelligent fear was the pilots secret of
safety. It made him foresighted, alert, prudent. As a
result, be never had an accident.

This holiday weekend millions of Americans will
be travelling. It would be well to approach the oc-
casion with intelligent fear — recognition of the extra
hazards, determination to meet them with extra care.
So if you are driving this weekend and your
patience is strained by a slow-moving jam of cars
ahead, be a little afraid to pull out of line and race
into the unknown.
------Taka rnnnwl milli. -tear if you consume a he arty
picnic lunch and tnen are tempted to swim aion-?,
or to demonstrate your prowess as a distance swim-
mer in college days long gone.
Holiday accidents are made of the recklessness,
the thoughtless chance taking, the show-off attitude,
the impatience and discourtesy.
Fear — intelligent fear — of the consequences
may give you pause — and save your life. Courage
is not foolhardiness, and a chance in a million is not
the wise man’s odds.
Get a little scared over Labor Day — and be alive
to enjoy the next holiday.
