THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA. Speaking ... THE ... Public Mind To The Herald: A few days ago you were publishing a sort of controversy apparently between a pedestrian and an automoblliet; each gentleman somewhat intolerant of the other’s attitude and unable to see the other's point of view. As a confirmed pedestrian, and having recently become an automobile owner, 1 feel that 1 am in a manner capable of seeing the matter from both sides. The animosity which unfortunately but undoubtedly exists between drivers and foot-passengers is a matter of common knowledge. The man ori foot, accustom ed to being tooted at and spattered with mud. naturally resents the apparent good-fortune of the man driving the big car tie feels that he is being made to get out of the way. and altogether im posed on, and his natural instinct is to retaliate. lie has discovered through experience that the driver is not going to run over him. and consequently he saunters deliberately across the street, never stopping or changing his pace, half the time looking over his shoulder at the car. which has had to slow up and perhaps halt in «. V«er to let him get across without dinturl ing himself. He thereby causes htmself much inward sat isfaction. and also create* the impression that lie is a city-bred man who knows rtll about automobile* and their ways and has a supreme contempt for them. Let them run ovev him and pay the dam ages. says he. He is ho Country crack er to break his neck getting out of the way. Had to relate, there are ladies in this class in fact more ladles than men. There is n distinct type of woman who will be hanged if she will so much as look around when a motor horn blows. They just better not run over her, that’s ah. And of course they don’t. There by she becomes manifest «s a city lady, and a person of some consequence. If she only know! She merely gives herself away as a woman who has al ways bad to walk. If she wants to pose as a grand lady she ought to pick up her skirts and run timidly as fast as she can from an automobile a hundred yard* iwa> The woman who has al w-avs beqri accustomed to riding is an awful coward about ‘Tossing a street on foot The woman who rides occasional ly and knows something about the in convenience to the motor, is very con siderate about waiting, or hurrying not to Interfere It I* omv the woman who has had to fight her way to the street .mvs all her life who "show* off on Broad street by impenng the traffic. I have often heard motorists say that thev sincere v wish they might one day run over one of these people by accident. What we need Is s little co-operation between those who walk and those who roll on rubber tires. If ft pedestrian nhuwa (he sltgheat willingnee* to get ««'t of 1 lie w*v, unv motorlit Instinctively turn* aoide to let ‘hem h*” PoUtenea* breeds politeness . _ . . If the population <>f Augusta, however ! . nuld l>e transported bodily to New 1 ork In the state of mind In which It now. Is. It would not last two (Ins New 1 ork S would march stop the traffic for * mo - I ment and scrape It up J. » " A Mild Critieiam. To The Herald: for the past two tears I have beep a resident and tax-payer of the city of Anc'tata to I feel that l hate the nttht to offer a suggestion of public interest through this splendid col umn of The Augusta Herald. What I am about to outline occurs hourly on the principal streets of the city, and can so easily be suppressed If evervone does hi* or In thl* Instance especially, bar part Up until three tears ago 1 lived In a larger city and when I first took up residence here 1 was literally dumbfoubnded at the way in tvh , h the good people of Au uusta. (All of whom T am sure know letter!, make remarks to their com panion on the street about a passer- Iby in regard to their manner of drese. p altlon In life or anything elee that I onies to their mind: all the while j rudely staring at said “victim." They especially crltlvlre one's wearing ap- I parel. when often the person look* | far neater and more stylish than tha I Inveterate fault-finder For example, jthts summer I was very proud of a very chic Imported chappeau which had just been sent me from a smart sth avenue shop. One afternoon t wore i this hat down tow n On entering one of the Broad street store* a clerk (who *h ould think of the customer'* comfort. Instead of making her un- comfortable said to another custom er: "Some Tld.’ T wonder if she think* that thing is pretty?" The remark was made in an audible voice, so* everyone in the front of the store turned and stared. T could probably have made the young lady even more uncomfortable than she had me by re porting her to the manager, hut I had a heart. Every visitor from away I have ever had complained of this ill trantlered habit, and personally it is ; a relief to go to mv home city (or al most any other larger place), where the pode-strians are too engrossed in their own conversations and affairs to i criticize every shopper. Let's don't allow our Augusta women to get the repiiiation for being ill-mannered, but let's cut this scandal mongering and criticising out. “ONE WHO IS INTERESTED." AS TO JAPAN AIDING ENGLAND.! To the Herald. I have read with interest the ex-| tracts from the New York Wtaat*' Zeltutig, edited by Herman Ridder, published in the Augusta Chronicle, and the comments of The Chronicle with regard to the entry of the "yel low ally" of Great Britain against the "white man" of Germany. Of course no reasonable white man likes to see conflicts In which the dark races are pitted against the white, but it is well known that Germany, in her colo nial difficulties, has not regarded race in the acquirement of territory and has guarded her colonial frontiers with black men to keep off all intruders of whatever ra-c And we do not forget that thousands of Germans, won over with the promise of bounty and the hope of plunder, came three thous -1 and miles to fight side hy side with , the blacks to aid the federal forces In their Invasion of our dear South- ' land in the go's and aided in the rob- I bine of the people and the burning of the houses of the white people cf i the South. And then we have not forgotten how the white people of the North. In order to conquer the South in the civil war. forgetful of the ties of blood and of race, did not hesitate to make allies of the negroes. For they turned the slave upon u*. And with more than a fiend's worst art. • I'neovered the fires of the savage That slept in hia untaught heart. The ties tr our hearts which bound him. They rent with curses away. And maddened him with their mad-' ness To be almost a* brutal as they. And now. with upraised hands and : holy horror, this <*nme section de- ] p’oros the entrance of England's “vel lov. allies" In a war in which the whole world Is interested and must be affected. In which the whole world is engaged to strike off th/ 'act shackles of feudalism. CONFEDERATE VETERAN Reaufort. 8. C.
