Lesson
T, ._A locomotive engineer -took liolt one morning recently and straight to destruction. 1-is had the same run ln safety for more
agent! yarn. His record was per-
Therallroall company that em-
Qloyoil. him claims to have adopted Ovary ‘known aililliance and regulation _for the protection of life and pro- `-Mrty. With his train at full speed the engineer passed unheeded a eau. tlonary signal. Still unchecked, he ignored a danger signal. A little fur~ ther he left 5 stop signal in the rear, pod a few seconds later, having paid nu attention to a flagman and a N90. he crushed into a train ahead of him. killing and maiming scores of people.
In this -tragedy of the Lackawanna
system was repeated on a similar scale the horror of the ‘Titanic'. Danger signals were up on all sides in both cases. In both cases, those whose duty it was to be governed by them were blind or disobedient.
Yet counterpalts of this engineer,
drunk, vain, ambitious, reckless, stupid of plain crazy, are found in all walks of life. Everywhere danger, signals are flying and everywhere they are flouted. ln personal habits and morals, in business and industry, in politics and government, men pass with open eyes the warnings set by wisdom and experience, and of course meet eoverwhelming disaster. :
The individual, the corporation,
the 1-state or the nation that wishes to be guided aright can hardly miss thc way. For all of these there are not only cautionary, danger and posi- tive stop signals, but many another indicating ways that are safe and sure. Those that take notice live.
Those that do not take notice die.
