reconciliation with harmony entirely out of the
question. If a chorus of present-day motor horns
had boon released upon an unprepared and unsus
pecting gathering of people of twenty-five years
ago, it is difficult to imagine what would have
been the effect.
Individually, some of these horns give forth
not altogether unpleasing tones but in the main
they may be described as “ shrieks,” and their
usefulness as a source of protection to the public
has been so considerably discounted in the past
few years that ia some states laws compelling the
-blowing of horns under certain conditions have been
repealed.
Every automobile needs a horn—there is no
doubt of that—but it does not need to be an ear-
splitting device, nor is it ‘ necessary that it shall
be need as promiscuously as some operators appear
to think it should be. Certainly nothing is to be
gained by a continuous blast hs congested thorough
fares where traffic officers and individual» drivers
are doing their best. Sooner nr later there will be
laws and ordinances against too much blowing as
well ae against too little.—Christian Science Monitor.
Community
On© of the worst features of life in the smaller
cities and towns 25 years ago was the frequency
of pergonal quarrels and antagonisms. If you start
ed any kind of a public movement in those days you
had to consider that Mrs. A—and Mrs. B— were at
sword’s points, and would never work together.
At the same time, you had to recognize both ele
ments. If Mrs. A—was given a position of prom
inence and Mrs. B—was ignored, then the Mrs. B—
faction would declare that the movement was all
wrong, and they would jeer at it at every oppor
tunity and probably it would be a failure.
The men also had their antagonisms, which
were a tremendous obstacle in the way of commun
ity movements. In these days when people read
more and see more of life, they should l>e big enough
to forget those petty feuds.
Princing Is Hard Work
The Prince of Wales comes to Canada as the
royal family’s representative for tlie diamond jubilee
birthday celehyation of the dominion.
After the official oeremonies at Ottawa, the
priiiee will hie him with his chosen cronies to his
E-P ranch near High River, Alberta, where he for
gets that he is Prince of Wales, and becomes plain
fanner.
It is on this ranch that many prize-winning
live stock beauties are raised under the prince’s
instructions. It is here that, clad in khaki knick>
ers, and a five-gallon topper, no one dares address
him as the prince.
This is his vacation time—a time lie looks for
ward to as eagerly as any $25-a-we0 clerk.
Just a reminder that the wonotaiy of princing
can get as monotonous as the job of clerking.
