WHEN AN ACCIDENT IS NOT
AN ACCIDENT
(Editorial)
The driver of an automobile, with
■or without (moonshine), attempts to
“beat” another “to it’’ at a narrow
point in the road. After the victims
of the two machines are carted off to
the hospital or the undertaking par
lors, their friends look sad and say:
“What a terrible accident.”
Now, the facts of the matter are'
there was no accident at all. It was
cause and effect, in its most logical
form. The man who takes fool chanc
es, ignoring the simple rules of safety
and common sense, when driving h
car, is in the same class as the man
■who sits smoking on a powder keg,
and the chances are that the services
of the undertaker will be called in be-'
fore they have reached their allotted
span in life. And it won’t be an acci
dent, either. It is the natural se
quence of causes and results.
A man driving down a steep, crook
ed grade with brakes he knows to be
defective, has no right to claim “hard
luck” while recuperating at a hospital.
A logical cause brings a logical re
sult.
The matter of safety in driving has
been written about to the extent of
volumes, but in spite of it all people
go right on violating the simplest
rules of driving, hit a 50-mile gait on
a fifteen mile ro?ld and still profess to
-wonder why hospitals and undertak
ers rapidly attain to affluence.
Everyone regrets an automobile ac
cident, but they will continue to oc
cur with pronounced regularity so I
long as people continue to defy com
mon sense nidrivlng.
WHY SO SMALL?
An eastern man has sent an inquiry
relative to the location of Cody as the
Bite for a bottle factory and states
that he proposes to erect one with a
capacity of a carload a week.
Why not build one at least adequate,
*to supply the home trade? The manu-'
facturera of either the Hart Mountain i
or Monument Hill industrial districts!
could use the entire output and holler
for more.
AN INSIDE VIEW
A poll of prison Inmates on the pro
hibition question showed 133,000 for
and 909 against prohibition. Such au
thorities as the Literary Digest, how
ever, are more concerned in sounding
the sentiment of those on the outside.
Home Philosophy.
It’s the right thing to look around
you and admire the world God made,
but when it’s good working weather
you’re not expected to admire it all
day long.—Atlanta Constitution.
Happiness Is Contagious.
We ought to be as cheerful as we
con, if only because to be happy our
eelves, Is a most effectual contribution
to the happiness of others.—Lubbock.
Hard Telling.
The new servant was as truthful ns
Bbe could be. The first culler asked to
•ee her mistress. “She’s not al home,”
Was the answer. “When will she be
back?" asked the caller. “I don’t know,
mum. She’s not gone out •e» ”
Lightning Holy In East
In some eastern countries it is con
sidered a mark of divine favor to be
struck by lightning.
Good Advice.
Never unburden your Imaginary
troubles on those who have real ones.

The Still That Mother Used
To Use
(From Our Own Heart Songs of
Hearth and Home)
A Sheriff once did make a raid
Upon a humble home
And pinched a man who in it laid
And drank there all alone.
An Angel Child of sweet sixteen
As the stil was took away
Shed tears up o n the h oo ch machin e
And to him then did say:
Chorus:
ft
O Sheriff, do not take the Still t ha t
Mother used to use
Before she died she used to fill my
Papa up with booze.
With raisins and con r meal and yeast
his daily rum did make,
And now she’s j o in e d the Angel band
we keep it f o r her sake!
The widowed man did join the plea:
With eyes all weak and red.
He kneeled upon his feeble knee
And also tears he shed.
He says his daughter’s hair was gold
Although his own was gray,
And to the Sheriff’s heart so cold
These wirds he then did say:
“O Sheriff, donot take the Still her
Mother used to use,” etc.
The Sheriff was not quite a beast,
He thought that he could hear
A song that out of heaven eased
Itself into his ear,
An Angel Voice that joined the plea
Os he whose hair was gray,
And he fell on his bended knee
When the Angel Voice did say:
“O Sheriff, do not take the Still her
Mother osed to ose,” etc.
And then spoke dp the widowed man,
“How sad that I did strike
My Angel Wife with heavy hand
And end our wedded life!
Within my dreams I hear her moan
Like ere she passed away!
The Still she left within our Home,
I crave you, leave it lay!”
| “O Sheriff, do not take the Still,” etc.
The Sheriff's tears fell down his face,
He was an honest man,
And turning to them in that place
Held out his rugged hand;
He said, “Your daughter’s hair is gold
My heart she’s stole away,
If she’ll take me to have and hold I
The still shall be let lay!”
“The Sheriff will not take the Still her
Mother used to use,” etc.
I
His stony heart no more was faint
But melted in his breast.
The daughter then his plea did grant,.
They had a wedding feast,
An Angel Voi c e fell from the skies
To give the bride away,
They heard its words with sobbing
eyes
As it to them did say:
“The Sheriff will not take the Still
that Mother used to use!
Before she died she used to fill the
Papa up with booze,
With raisins and conrmeal and yeast
his daily rum did make,
And now she’s joined the Angel Band j
they keep it for her sake!”
—New York Sun.
