He gets around the turn without anything happening to 1dm. The speed maniac, or the man whose brakes are out of order, keeps right on. And we usually read of one or both in the accident columns of the newspapers, sooner or later. The road we all must take is pretty well marked with warnings, although it takes experience to read some of them. If we have the brake called will power, and keep It in trim, we have nothing to fear from the dangerous places. If our Judgment Is bad and our will power likely to give way we never get I where we are going, except in a very , badly damaged condition. There is no occasion for such great hurry that the warning signs must he over run. On the road to wealth, and espe cially the road to pleasure, the warn ings are very abundant. Yet thousands and thousands of people run past them every day, with the usual disastrous results. There is little enough time In the averuge life. We must ail work rap idly If we are to get a good lifetime’s work accomplished in the working years that are allotted to us. But we can always slow down at the risky corner, provided we keep our will power in condition, and use the judg ment tliat ought to he a part of our make-up. The “too much play” turn In tlie road is more dangerous than tlie “too much work” corner, hut it Is well to slow down at both of them. Then tlie “overindulgence” and “late hour” spots call for almost a halt. Read all the signs, and observe them. It Is delightful to speed along the road and feel that we shall get where we are going in jig time. But many speeders who do not see or heed the warning, never get where they are going at all. And when they are piled up in the , hospital or the snaltarium or told by a grave-faced doctor to bid their families a last farewell, they begin to see tlie sense in stringing these signs along the road, and to wish they had kept their ! brakes in order. of the greatest races the world lias J T girl IS to a write usual asking question a young who for should take ever produced.
