PAGE TVTO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBtJyE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, i aaa. L TO ENTER CAMPAIGN The phrwe. "Let'a Quit Killing!" adopted by the Oregon State Motor aaaodatJoa, in an endeavor to curb auto dectha, has been Introduced to the student of the MM lord Senior high school and a "little" campaign la being conducted. Thl state-wide program has been widely advertised, but hu not been put tn uh locally until the present time. C. Q. Smith, principal 01 tne Medford high school, stated this morning that the safety campaign -was being conducted for two pur- poeea. '"The first Is to acquaint parents, through the children, with this auto motive safety plan. The second pur pose la to make the student more conscious of the necessity of sfe driving and considering the careless things that the other driver may do," said Mr. Smith. The campaign was opened this afternoon In the auditorium of the local high school when some 500 stu dent heard R. E.

"Conditions are little short of des perate! in 1934 our automobile ac cidents produced an economic loss of one and one-quarter billion dollars, more than twice the fire loss. We injured more than 1.000,000 people. We killed 35,500 persona, one every IS minutes. We have reached the place where Albert W. Whitney, vice- president of the National Safety Council, backed by national statistics, can say, 'If you have three children, the probability Is that one of them will be killed or Injured In an auto mobile accident" was the portion ox Mr. Robinson's talk that sounded a note of warning to student pedes trians and drivers. Tomorrow, In the pub'le speaking classes, each student will make a short speech on some phase ef the subject for a prize donated by R. E. Robinson. Each Thursday for the next six weeks, each council group will hear a member of the apeecn class discuss various subjects Including the auto mobile, the pedestrian, and safety rules In driving.

I have atolen Into your room alone. Just a few minutes ago, as I sat reading my paper in the library, a hot, stifling wave of remorse awept over me. I could not resist It. Guiltily, I came to your bedside. "These are the things Z was think ing, son: I had been cross to you. X scolded you as you were dressing for school because you gave your face merely a dab with a towel. 1 took you to task for not cleaning your shoes. I called out angrily when I found you had thrown some of your things on the floor. "At breakfast 1 found fault, too. Tou spilled things. You gulped down your food. You put your elbows on the table. You spread butter too thick on your bread. And aa you started off to play and I made for my train, you turned and waved a little hand and called. 'Good-bye Daddy!' and I frowned, and nald In reply, 'Hold your shoulders back. "Then It began all over again In the lnte afternoon. As I came up the hill road I spied you, down on your knees playing morales. There were holes In your stockings. 1 humiliated you before your boy friends by mak ing you march ahead of me back to the house. Stockings were ex pensive nd you If you hsd to buy them you would be more careful! Imagine that, son, from a fatherl It waa auch stupid, silly logic. "Do you remember, later, when I waa reading in the library, how you came In, aoftly, timidly, with a sort of hurt, hunted look In your eyes? When I glanced up over my paper, Impatient at the interruption, you hesitated at the door. 'What la It you want? X snspped. The Good-Night Kiss. "You sold nothing, but ran across. In one tempestuous plunge; and threw your arms around my neck and kissed me, again and again, and your omsll arme tightened with an affection that God had set blooming in your heart and which even ne glect could not wither. And then you were gone, pattering up the stairs. - Well. son. It was shortly after- warda that my paper slipped from my handa and a terrible sickening fear came over me. Suddenly I saw myaeti as i really waa. In all my horrible selfishness, snd X felt sick at heart. "What has habit been doing to me? The habit or complaining, ot finding fault, of reprimanding all of these were my rewards to you for being a boy. It was not that I did not love you; It waa that I expected so much of youth. It was measuring you by the yardstick of my own years. "And there was so much that was good, snd fine, and true tn your character. You did not deserve my treatment of you. son. The little heart of you waa as big as the dawn Itself over the wide hills. All this was shown by your spontaneous !tn pulse to rush In and klsa me good night. Nothing else matters tonight, son. I have come to your bedside in the darkness, and I have knelt there, choking with emotion, and so aaliamed! "It is a feeble atonement, I know you would not understand these things If I told them to you during your waking boura. yet I must esy what I am saying. I must burn aacrl- nclai firea, alone, here in your bed room, and make free confession. And I have prayed God to etrengthen me in my new resolve. Tomorrow I will be a real daddy I X will chum with you, and auffer when you Buffer and laugh when you laugh. I will bite my tongue when Impatient words come. I will keep ssylng aa If It were a ritual: -He la nothing but a boy a little boy!' "I am afraid I have visualized you as a man. Yet aa I aee you now. son, crumpled and weary In your cot, I aee that you are still a baby. Yes terday you were In your mother'a arms, your head on her ahoulder. I have asked too much, too much.
