Al Barnes, the old veteran showman, is here today with his aggregation and Al has a good show- . He has worked tt lot of features which are new, but they do not count ftr much. The main idea, the thing that attracts and holds one is just the circus. Features such as "Alice in Wonderland," and other spectacular things pale into mere significance when the darkey band with red jackets toots. ittvely toot; when the big, good natured elephants begin the-."hQQchey-coochey'' daiice; when the clowns hit it off with some old John Robinson joke; when the high school ai.- 1 1.

Stop Look Listen Thousands of lives are sacrificed, billions of dollars in property is lost and untold suffering is caused annually by carelessness and negligence. In spite of "snfety first," "cross crossings cautiously," "watch; your step," "stop, look and listen" and traffic signs and campaigns tin; toll increases year after year. . ; To be careless seems to be instinctive and to be careful is manifestly unnatural for mankind. Sometimes it is thoughtlessness or nbsentmindedness. but more often it is pure carelessness. Too often man learns after it is Ion lute. It is another case where the sin is not in the sinning but in being caught. Perhaps it is because man is a natural-born gambler that he continues to "take a chance." Some of the more "popular" chances people take during the course of a day are stepping off the curb without first looking toi tl'af flCp' crossing the street in the middle of the block or behind street carsj speeding across highway inter sections' throwing matches and cignrets into waste baskets, corners and leaves, driving over grade crossings without stopping to look and listen and leaving ignition keys in parked automobiles and house doors unlocked. , Another less serious demonstration of the human trait of carelessness is that of littering the streets, parks and other public property with debris. Even where waste re ceptacles are supplied persons habitually drop their cast off papers and other odds and ends upon the sidewalks, pavements, parkways and greens. The public spends mil lions 'annually for public buildings for the public to mutil ate. The taxpayer forgets that he pays for his own van dalism and carelessness. Legislation has proven itself quack medicine for the endemic carelessness and education thus far has wrought relatively few cures among the army of the chance-takers and though tlet's. . .
