PROGRESS OF CITIES
The unusual pateinee with which
American cities and towns are re
ported to be accepting the announced
census enumeration of ‘heir inhabi
tants would seem to indicate progress
in a desirable direction. Expressions
of disappointment are said to be re
latively few and certain rathei loud
laments are mild compared with the
cries of anguish or unbelief that
came from so many municipalities af- i
ter the taking of former censuses.
If, as stated, the figures are be
ing generally receive} with more or
less of indifference, it means that
notable change has come about. If
the avearge American municipality
content with its census
showing and no longer inclined to
charge inaccurate accounting of un
fair discrimination, it means not
only that the government’s census
work inspires more trust than form
erly but that progressive communi
ties are beginning to be more inter.-

occasional hit or miss advertising,
and who, therefore, do not obtain

The American ingenuity that has

devise some plan to lessen the homi

FIRST AUTO TRACTDY
According to t. report which has
just been gotten out by it committee
on state and‘highway safety in Bos
ton, Mass., the first person killed by
an automobile in that state was a
little girl, whose death occurred 26
years ago. Since then more than 9,-
years ago. Since then more than 9.800
in that state have lost their
...v» ... automobile accidents, a total
twice the number of the Massachu
setts men who died in the World
War.
The report says that on Memorial
Day, or May 30, 26 years ago, a lit
tle girl named Marian Holder, ac
companied by her parents and bro
thers, was about to board a street
... Roxbury, Mass., on their way
to the cemetery to decorate the grave
of her little sister. As they waited
for the street car, an automobile
traveling five miles an hour and pro
pelled by a 16 horse-power motor,
came "whizzing” along. The little
girl became confused at the noise and
instead of running to the sidewalk,
darted directly in its path and wss
killed.
It is said that the newspapers of
that day featured the incident across
their iront pages with such headlines
as "Red Devil Kills a Child and
Flees.”
It was the sensation of that day,
though children are killed now and
little attention is paid to it.
As a matter of fact, the death
record from automobiles since the
first, accident in Massachusetts, 26
years ago, has become appalling. Most
them are due to carelessness or
iolations of ordinary rules govera-
sclf, but in the man, or woman, or j nf r traffic.
