THE DAN.GL IRS HiOLi1IDAY TRAFFIIC ane thirty lives were lost over the ell end and the holiday; many times est number were injured, and practic- '1?1y all were the results of motor ac - 'dents. And the sad part is that investiga- , tea has shown most of them could have been avoided. A few miles or even a mile or two less per hour in speed; a few seconds or a riiinute or two longer at an intersection and Iaomes that are desolute to -day would have been as happy as they were on Friday last. With the average driver of a car, it is always the other fellow whc may have an accident on the road. He has heard of accidents or has read about them in the papers, but they always seemed far away and remote from him. But that it is not always the other fellow in distant parts who has an accident was brought very forcibly home to the people in this district by the tragic happenings near Brucefield on Monday morning. What comparison is there between an hour saved in a day's journey, or ten seconds saved in turning a corner and a human life? Yet an ever in" creasing number of drivers are tak- ing these chances for these gains. It is bad enough where a careless driver loses his own life, but most drivers hold the lives of three or four other people in their hands when they are driving a car. One would think that this fact and the responsibility would compel caution, but it doesn't. If the problem of holiday traffic on the roads is not soon solved, or its dangers in some measure lessened by the common sense of drivers them- selves, then the Government will have to step in and prohibit all holiday traffic, or permit it only by individual permit. THE ROClKI':G CHAR The Montreal Star says: Rocking chairs were in existence i': the Aztec days, and probably Job had one when he sat outside his tent and cursed his boils. How many genera- tions have not been lulled to slumber by the regular, soothing motion of the rocking chair? How many old people have not found old age easier to bear when seated in their rocking chair and moving slowly to and fro while they meditate upon the evanesc- ence of youth? How many problems of state have not been solved =n a rocking chair by some glowing fire? How many romances have not had their beginning, thein growth and their culmination with the aid cf the rocking chair? It has played a very important part in historyy in state- craft, in domestic relatioes and in the „-upbringing of youth. And now it is tri pass away, into the limbo of for- gotten things. There is a lot of truth in that para- graph. The rocking chair has had its day, arid a good long day it was. But there is not speed enough in a rocking chair for this generation Who, in this day, would think of sit- ting down and rocking a child ti sleep? Aside from a bad habit, it might create, it is so much easier to put a baby in a basket and throw the basket into • the car. It serves two purposes. The parents don't have to stay at home for one thing, and for another, the wind keeps the baby's eyes closed and the noise drowns the cries. Killing two birds with one stone as it were, besides toughening the child's constitution, if it doesn't kill it. Or how many old people to -day have time to sit in a rocking chair and move slowly to and fro. No, sir! They have to hustle to pay the in- stalments on the car, or hustle to get the chores done before bed time. It isn't their own vanishing youth that gives them thought, but the youth of to -day, who vanish with or without an excuse of any kind. And statesmen don't settle the af- '" fairs of the nation in rocking chairs. They rock in private cars, and prob- lems are so much more easily settled with a cheque book than by giving them deep thought. And what romance is there in a rocking chair for the youth of to -day? It takes a one handed driver of an open car travelling at sixty miles an hour to breed romance in present day youth. The greater the speed, the greater the romance. No, the rocking chair may have played a very important part in his- tory, in statescraft, in dorfestic rela- tions and in the up bringing of youth, Dent it has no chance to -day. Just look Into the display windows ,pf the mod- furniture store, or in thews - paper advertisements and see if e3cking chair has not passed away in- s the limbo of forgotten things. 11 Aid School Report. -The following is the classification of the pupils. of School Section No. 14, ay, an a re- t 1t of the Promotion Examinations bow Stt le 288th a 'l• 7th: Sr. I[v7 X111 to lanais, a'ladyo Jarrett.
