MORE AJIOUT AUTO HEADLIGHTS
Commenting upon the recent edito¬
rial, “Courtesy in Night Driving” The
Rome News has the following to say:
“It is said that in one section of Ala¬
bama the rule of courtesy and safety
which calls for the dimming of lights
by passing automtobiles on country
roads is scrupulously observed, not¬
withstanding that there is no state law
on the subject. But there is an un¬
written law r backed by precedent that
whenever a driver fails to dim a light,
he is liable to be stopped by the offen¬
ded driver parking in front of him, and
either causing a wreck or engaging in
a fight. We don’t approve of that cus¬
tom, exactly, because it is hazardous.
However, it is said to have proved ef¬
fective.
There is no law in Georgia requir¬
ing the dimming of lights on country
roads, and in this section there is not
even an accepted rule to that effect.
But it is high time that auto drivers
adopt a rule of courtesy, and do every¬
thing in their power to have it adopted
by all drivers. It is remarkable that
many accidents have not occurred as
the result of .lights blinding auto dri¬
vers. However, much discomfort and
alarm has been caused by the practice
of speeding along with lights beaming
like the headlight of a locomotive into
the eyes of approaching drivers.
“We suggest to the recently organ¬
ized Rome Motor Club that one of its
first activities should be to promote a
•courtesy rule for night driving in this
section, and then to co-operate with
motor clubs in other cities toward the
adoption of a state-wide rule or law,
governing lights on automobiles.”
Commenting upon the same edito¬
rial, the Moultrie Observer says:
“With automobile lights becoming
more glaring and more numerous, the
dangers of night travel are increasing.
There is no regulation of automobile
lights, and the fellow who is meanest
is the one who uses the highest power
lights, and turns his lights highest. It
is also the meanest man who uses ex¬
tra lights, including the needless spot
light. He feels that the road is for him,
and that the other fellow should squat
in the ditch, or get out in the woods.
“We shall sometime have light reg¬
ulations, but it will hardly be a system
of dimming lights. The dimming pro¬
has several objectionable features.
cess hog
The worst one is that the road
never dims his lights. One objection is
that dimming a light suddenly leaves
driver of a car practically in the
the of dan¬
dark, and increases the chance
rather than decreasing it- Manu¬
ger. most of the
facturers could overcome
difficulties, but they have so far

refused to do it. It is every
himself in selecting a light for his car,
adopting an attitude toward oth¬
and in
ers on the road.— Ex.

*’ ,ai t. nil colds, loses to a huge extent
i,fi H ‘‘Use of smell, and with it the sen-v

...
the b- tv.
Adenoids produce u peculiar facial
expression. When the mouth is used as
a breathing tube, the roof slowly bulges
upward in order to make a larger pas¬
sage. This causes the arch of the teeth
to bend and become more pointed, with
overlapping of the teeth and a shorten¬
ing ot tiie upper lip. The nose, on the
other hand remains undeveloped, small
and narrow. After the disease has be¬
come established these effects give
what is known as the “adenoid ex¬
pression”.
A child with adenoids has disturbed
sleep because the adenoids interfere
j wi,h ten inte,ft his breathing. The hearing
! ‘ red v *ith, causing various
degrees ot’ deafness, because the ade¬
noid growth closes the passage leading
from the throat to the middle ear. Deaf¬
ness in a child should always suggest
a throat examination. In addition to
deafness, a child with adenoids often
develops earache or aheess of the ear,
on account of the* ears becoming Infec¬
ted through tin 1 infected ear passages.
The treatment for adenoids is rela¬
tively simple and the danger Is very
.slight. In other words, the treatment,
compared with the danger of leaving
the adenoids alone, is a small danger
compared with a great danger. When
adenoids are large enough‘to bo reoog
(
nlzed, they are doing harm. If the child
is under (fight or nine years of age, the
harm will almost certainly increase,
and perhaps the Injury will become
permanent.
Whenever adenoids are suspected,
the only safe thing to do is to take the
child to a nose or throat specialist, or
to some physician who is known to
treat adenoids.—The Progressive Pal¬
mer.
