THE PSYCHOLOGY OF ACCI-
v ; DENTS' ;
.. By Slaurlca Masterllnek. .
As mart takes tha powers of nature
Into bis service tha - opportunities ' for
accidents Increase as tha dangers of
tha lion tamer increase with tha num
ber of beaats ha takes Into tha cage.
In former days we avoided contact with
these powers -while they now, so to
speeJc, belong to our domestlo animals.
And thus It happens that thoegh w
have become more peaceable and care
ful, we, oftener" than our forefathers,
look death In the face. It la more than
likely that many among those who read
these lines have had the thoughts and
been In tha position to make almUir
observations. 1
One of tha first 7 questions ' whlcn
forces Itself upon us Is that of pre
monition, foreboding. Do wa, as many
Inalat, In the mornlna; have alforefrel
Inv of an accident which la to befall
us aortns Hie day
It Is difficult to answer this question
as our experience oan only ba founded
on accldenta which have been narrowly.
avoided or at leaat have not bad seri
ous, consequences. - It Is -only natural
to suppose that mlnoc accidents do not
stir up our natural manner, very mucn
beforehand or do not affect It at all, and
In other cases where death or fstal In
juries result the victim Is not able to
enlighten us. At any rata, everything
that our personal experience can teacn
regarding; this point lit very uncer
tain aad the question remains an open
one.
We start out soma mornlna; in auto
mobiles, on bicycle, motor-cycle, steam
boat or train all-powerful factors In
accidents. I .at us, to think of some
thing definite, suppose that it is in an
automobile or motor-cycle. Suddenly
and without any apparent reason, at a
turn- of tha road or. even 1n tha middle
of a wide and straight - road, left or
right, death appears, seises the brake
or the handlebars, changes tha direc
tion and bars our way with a wall, a
tree or a rock, and srrlns Into our facea
unexpectedly, -monstrous, inevitable. It
closes tha borison of Ufa and leaves no
escape.
Immediately a . "passionate, bitter
fight, which lasts perhaps half a -min
ute, be gin a between our reason and our
instinct. The action or our intelligence,
reason or whatever wa choose to call
It, is very Interesting;. It Judges quick
ly and logically that all Is lost, but in
spite of that It Is neither paralysed nor
scared. It picture clearly tne acci
dent and its results .in detail, and wo
feel proud that wa ara not afraid.
Between col Union and fall It has a
short space of time. In which It finds
tlma to dream, to hope tnat escape ia
still possible and even to think of other
things, to- call up memories, to put to
gether facts and to make clear and dis
tinct observations.
Tha tree, It sees before death. Is a
sycamore, it has three holes In Its
trunk. It Is not as beautiful as tha one
In the park. The rock against which
our bead Is to be crushed, has -veins of
mica and marble. - It feels that It la
not responsible, that it Is not to' be
blamed, it smiles artel even feels a
pleasant sensation, it swaits the inevlt
able with calm resignation, unmingled
with wonderful curiosity.
It Is beyond doubt that if our life
were dependent only on this too logical
spectator almost every accident would
become a catastrophe, but luckily an
other factor sppears on the scene called
to Ins by our nerves, that vibrate un
guided by tbs brain and cry like scared
children, a moes-grown, naked, brutal
and muscular being; that upaots every
thlng and seises at any possibility at
hand. It la called our Instinct, our un
conscious power. ' Where wss It. from
where did it comet It wss ssleep some
where or was occupied with dark and
mystic work in the primitive depths of
our being;. It was once the all-powerful
mistress, but of late it has been
pushed aside and dethroned like a poor
relative who "lacks training; and good
manners, sn unpleasant reminder of
our primitive orlg:ln. . .
Only in tha Insane momenta of
treme anguleh we think of it and seek
its assistance. Happily, it is brave and
has no thought of revenge or selfish
ness. It well knows that all the besutl
ful qualities for the seke of which It is
despised are vsln and superficial, and
that after all it Is still the only real
mistress or tne numan being, with a
glance quicker than tha dreadful speed
of dan ger it takes in ths whole situa
tion, masters all details, escapes all
possibilities, snd a moment gives us
tha magnificent lgh of power, courage,
determination and will power when un-
conquered life files Into tha farce of un
conquerable death. . ..
' Perhaps It Is not surprising thst In
itinct saves from- the great ordinary
but unexpected dangers of water, fire,
fall and attack of -wild beasts, Hera it
undoubtedly possesses an atavlatle- ex.
perlenct which explains its skill. But
what surprises me is the . ease and
quicknesa with which it adapts itself to
even the most complicated inventions
of our brain. Jt in only necessary" to
have 'shown It their mechanism once
and It understands it and at tha criti
cal moment It will show that it know

aay that thera are. In principle, bo In
evitable catastrophes.
Tha unconsoloua self Is always In
formed and able to cope with all situa
tions, but Wa have no longer all tha
same right to count upon Its prompt
action. It never dies, vanlahea or falls',
but many of oa have banished it into
such depths and. allow it so seldom to
sea tha light of day, wa have so com
pletely lost sight of It, have ohalned
and gagged It so hard, that we. no
longer know where to find it la an
emergency. Wa have physically not
tlma to alarm 'or to unchain It, and.
when It at last arrives, full of courage
and eager to fight, it Is too late. Tha
accident has already happened, death
has finished hla work.
- This ta shown In nearly every acci
dent. Expose two automobiles to tha

only Illogical, Incalculable and necessary
movement, while the other three, de-
pendlng on their reason and Intelli
gence alone, will do the opposite. That
Is when w speak of 'luck and "mis
fortune." '...
This does not prevent that our
chances compared with those of other
living beings are remarkable when wa
taka Into consideration- how frail Is our
body,. how mighty. the powers of nature
surrounding ua, and ' Innumerable the
dangers that threaten us. Among our
machines, apparatus, poisons, fires and
water, all the harnessed powers of na
ture which ara aver ready to uniting,
we risk -Our lives to or SO times, as
often as do, for instance, dogs, horses
or cattle. . And at every accident In tha
street, st every flood, earthquake,
storm, fall of treea or eollapae . of
houses, animals ara much oftener- killed
than human beings. It is evident that
wa are better protected by our experi
ence as well as hy our Instinct, but
there is something besides this It
verily seems as If nature herself Is In
fear of men. It has a certain horror to
touch this frail body, it surrounds us
with an open and Indefinable respect,
and when- It, "becauae of. our owa mls
takes, is forced to hurt us, it hurts us
as llttla aa possible.
