Second Prize Essay Tells ?
How to Reduce Accidents
. Education for courtesyl That U
exactly what Is needed. Education
in elementary courtesy, as it
could be applied to drlring' on the
' streets of' our cities and highways
of our state. For example: It two
men met in the doorway of a
. building. It is highly Improbable
that each one would give a warn
ing signal and try to pursa
through ahead of the other; but
they would each stand aside and
offer the other one the privilege
of passing first, and would conse
quently get through the encount
er with a minimum of confusion.
On the other hand, if these
same two men met In their auto
mobiles at an intersection, they
would more than likely each honk
his horn and try to crowd by first.
This lack of courtesy of one driv
er toward another and of a drtrer
toward a pedestrian Is the cause
of Innumerable accidents that
1 couldery easily be aroided.
Of course, you : may say that
courtesy is absolutely optional on
the part of each individual driTr,
and that most of them would not
, accept such a doctrine. But as I
said before, what they need is
education. This could be given te
them in a small degree .througn
the schools and like means, but
the best way. I believe, te instill
this thought into the minds of
the general public.' would be to
carry on an extensive advertising
. campaign through the newspapers
and various other channels that
would be open to the use of the
. .state. :-:

One of the most Interesting
loop trips out of Salem suggested
by the Chamber of Commerce in
Its 1931 issue of "Trail 'Em to
Salem,' Is that of d tiring to the
SHrer Creek Falls State Park and
returning by way of Silrerton
and the famous Howell Prairie
country,
Now that the state highway
commission has purchased nine
of the ten falls In this small sec
tion of; two square miles, resi
dents of 8alem are within 21
miles of two of the most attract
lre falls, known as the North
Falls. 14 i feet, and the Upper
North. 65 feet. You will know
the Upper North by the big log
and the North by the descent of
water 14 feet, dashing on large
rocks below, ' . : -
To drire to the tails through
the Waldo Hills district, you go
east on ; State street, turn south
at the four corners two miles out
and then follow the signs 'to the
North SUrer Creek bridge, where
you park.
First, walk half a mile tip Sil
ver Creek to the east and enjoy
the Upper North Falls. Just plain
easy walking to this most Inter
esting one of the group.
Return to the road where your
ear is parked and then note sign
to Upper North Falls, about half
mile down stream. Before you
reach ' this most Interesting one
of the group of falls, you note
the gorge and efforts, rushing
waters are making for the 146
foot leap to the rocks below. '
To go under and around the
North Falls, you climb down
fairly, steep places, all of which
makes It the more interesting.
Then 'walk under the falls . and

A committee of representative
citizens that would meet at sated
intervals, should be able to very
successfully earrr out a campaign
of this sort. Of course this would
necessarily be a long, hard tight
against a rapidly growing spirit
of discourtesy among the modern
motor minded public It would be
touch better though, to kill it now
than to let it run on until It gams
enough strength to become un
eonouerable.
There is also anoher point
that X consider very important. It
is the fact that the traffic officers
patrol the highways in such dis
tinctive cwlored cars or motor
cycles. I do not exactly understand
the reason for this, but I do
know that it is an Immense help
to a driver who wants, to break
any of the traffic laws. It Is al
most the same as giving a mur
derer a warning that In 24. hours
the police are going to pursue and
try to capture him. . A motorist
can speed, cut corners, disregard
stop signs," or almost anything
else he wants to do. and as long
as he keeps a dose enough watch
for white automobiles he can al
ways avoid being apprehended.
While It the traffic officers pa
troled their beats in ordinarily
colored ears, the , law breakers
would be afraid to violate the law
because they weald not know
but what the car In front of, or
behind them, contained a traffic
officer. iThey would therefore
drive more carefully and be much
less liable to bare aa accident.

their high standards of quality,
workmanship, and owner values.
Larger Car, Lower Price
; "While the new model is by far
the lowest priced car in Graham
history, it is larger, roomier, more
powerful, and better equipped
than any previous Graham three
speed six in the low price bracket.
The Prosperity Six is as genuine
ly Graham in quality and work

the advanced engineering - and
structural features, ia chassis

ham cars.
This acaierement is made pos
sible by the Grahams' policy of
standardised design; under which
all their four different .chassis
models sre bult to a single gen

standards of design, materials,
and workmanship, and equipped
with Mn Ileal units. Only through
such standardization can a factory
