What is the matter with our fhil

S the matter with some parents.
The police are hunting for a little
:irl, ten years old, invited to go to
party by a plausible man, fifty
rieht years old. The child did not
kiw the man, the parents did not
iow him. But the parents said,
ertainly.” Off she went in

The 250 Fiji Islands, about eighty

Crops in the corn belt have taken

George Bernard Shaw, becoming
lesy important and less accurate
after seventy, declures that accumu
lated money is the root of all evil.
Without accumulated money Nia
gara Falls wouldn’t be harnessed, the
Panama Canal, which helps Britain as
much as it does us, wouldn’t be dug;
automobile production wouldn’t be
on a quantity basis and this country
wuold have, perhaps, 240,000,000 in
expensive automobiles.
Great accumulations of capital,
like great accumulations of water
going down hill, represent power.
Eliminate accumulated capital,
and you would eliminate possibilities
of higher civilization.
If the people haven’t brains enough
to watch and control accumulated
capital they wouldn’t have enough to
control small capital.
PURE CARELESSNESS CAUSES ‘
MOST ACCIDENTS
Ninety per cent of all industrial, ]
home, street and highway accidents
are from trivial causes.
“Major violations of the law and
spectacular acts of criminal negli
gence produce but u small fraction
of the total number of deaths and
injuries that occur annually,” de
clared Marcus A. Dow, eminent
safety engineer.
‘‘Boards left lying on factory
floor* with nails sticking up in them
cause more serious injuries than
boiler explosions. In private homes
more people are killed and seriously
hurt by falling down stairs than
killed and injuried in fires.
“The majority of street accidents

are caused by little acts of thoqght-
lessnciw, rather than by drunkenness
or other violations of the law in driv
ing automobiles.”
A careful analysis of street and
highway accidents shows that about
16 per cent urc caused by backing
up carelessly to get out of parking
spaces. Failure to get under prop
er control when approaching street
intersections causes another 15 per
cent Following too close behind a
vehicle to allow proper braking dis
tance .accounts for 12 per cent of
cidents. Improper signaling causes
10 per cent, and skidding eight per
cent. Miscellaneous small act*
neglect cause 30 per cent, while
drunkenness and other violations of
the law cause only 10 per cent of
cidents.—Exchange.
