Although thcic has been in rc- cent inoiiths a stainling increase 1n ilie number of airplane accidents. which can be almost wholly ac- cciuitcd for by the fact that there are mo.e young men flying in Can- ada. than ever before, the motor car ccntliiiics to be the chief engine of accidents, fatal and otherwise. In fact, we suPW-ie it is the “H56 oi more sudden deaths than any disease except heart failure, Now and then, in consequence of s. de- termined campaign of publicity, there is a slight di 0p. as there was a couple of years ago when divers were uzgcd not to drive m2; after they had been celebrating on Christmas and New Year's. But soon the regular tempo was resum- ed. Girs crash and people ate kill- ed. More people each year come to the age or state of afilueme in which ill-Cy can fulfil an ambition by driving or owning a. car. ‘There are mom car; on the road. and thcreioie more incapable drivers and more accidents.

Unfair lo Pedestrians.

But what about the incapable pedestrians? Is the percentage among them loiiver than it is among crir drivezs? We haive rio statistics

» on the point. In at least one res-

peel. our present laws creole an‘ injustice to prdzstzians. We have in view the great number of people who through age or lniirmly cannot move at the average rate oi spend. We have in mind those of poor eyesight, the halt and the maimed; those convalescing from illness who are y-ct required to use the streets. lu many crises they start to cross when the light L; green and before they have got to the other side the red light is against them. and cars are moving and honking, We do not think there is any motorist who would run one oi them down delib- rratziy. but the nervous strain upon ihcmmurzt bcsever-e. When they get safely across they rite apt to feel that, they have just narrowly saved their lives. If they are inclined to curse impatient motozists, who can blame them? But today we wish to say a. few words about pedestrians who are presumably in full possession of riill their bodily faculties, who lmow the dangers ih-it must always lurk in busy city streets and yet who continue to contribute to the grow- ing toll of dead and d through motor-car accidents.

Children Are Wiser.

We suppou that. rouglfy speak-

iniz. conditions which exist in the

United States correspond to those

in Canada, and that the causes

which are mostly resporiolbc for

accidents acioss the line are U161 operative cause here. In the Uni-

ted States it has been learned that in Illfilo cities nearly threequaiiors of all traffic fatalities were Pedes-

trains. About two-thirds oi the vic-

tims were middle-aged o~ over.

School chidren. it B-Duears have profited by Safety ﬁrst campaigns. It L: their elders who are in need of instruction. Sixty-five Ameri- can cities have passed laws compel- ling pedestrians to obey the traffic laws, and so succmssiul ITIVB ihey bl"l‘i that today in Scottie ii a pedestrian tried to beat the iilhi- ho wciild in all probably be jerked bflCk to the curb by another pedes- ii-idn.

The point is that pedestralns have the idea. that their right t0 0N5! 8 street anywhere is a prior right to that of the motorist to drive his car at alll.

And because of the greater speed or traffic on these roads. the rate of fatalities Is seven times renter- Anotlici- curious set of E-atistics compiled by the studv oi 1.030 Ped- estrian deaths in Connecticut and coo in the District of Columbia showed that respectively 95 per cent and 89 per cent o; those kill- ed had never learned to drive. though old enough to be eligible. In other words, they had no experi- once of the speed of vehicles and the natuzal reaction of drivers.

Life-Saving Rules.

We find in the Reader's D1868‘. condensed from the Washington Post. some rules for Pidﬁt- riuns. The most important is that a pedestrian should never try t0 cross o. street except at the cYDSSiIIB- 'I‘ha.t is where the motorist expects to see him. That is whe e the mo- wrist has most control over his car. When crossing a. street the D9485- trian must be wary of cars attempt- ing to turn in behin-d him. Nine- tenths of accidents to uedesiriw.

Oh-arlel Grievﬂlie, the celebrated diar-ist, said that “the world has never seen and will never see any- thing 1th: Holland House" and few houses have welcomed Within its doors such an illustrious; com y. Apart iirom a. long list of g atotcsme. headed by Earl Grey oi Reform Bill faxing and Lord Brougham, 1m hiaibituys included such famous personalities as Byron Tom Moore, Talleyrand, Samuel Rogers. Sydney Smith and, Lord Macaulay. and for more than thirty pars Iiomd Holland's table was run-owned for th-e richness o.‘ its conversational fare.

Macaulay Ioved both the pace and its-owners and after Lord Hol- iimds dsadi he wrote d descriptor; of Holland House containing a pro- phecy whose fulfilment ma... have now come ruthies; van- dalism of the Nazi Air Force. "The time is coming," he wrote in 1841 “wlri n perhaps a few old men, the last survivors of our gcncratons, will in vain seek amid new stxeefs and squares and railway stations ior the site of that dwelling. which was in thi ir youth the iaivorite resort of wits and beauties, of painters and poets, oi scholars. philosophers and statesmen." and he pzeducted that this growing city might soon displace "those i/urrets and gardens wihldla were associated with counsels oi Cromwizll and the daaiﬂh of Addison."

Holland House, which at the time Macaulay wrote was still in the country. was gradually surrounded by the well-known Inndor suburb oi Kensington as it grew, bu/t the puibiio spirit of Lord Holland successors in the ownership, cg whom the present one lord Iichesicr. had kept famous house and a large part of its ori- ginal grounds as a spacious resid- cniﬁel oasis. with green lawns and trees, a-mid lihiz y streets of Don. 01011- The 8101-111 Still remain, but ‘like 8198i hﬁllﬂe has been virtually demolished, and the changes are that it will never be rebuilt on its oziginol massive scale.

Just What To Wear And Be Right at Weddings

"Why Joe Roe. you know very wall win in- vltod to Millie litddlp Aisle’: wea- ding this weekend and even you should start worrying about what you'll mar.

"They"I have definite ideas but then, not, many really know, lens care, who “they" are. until it's almost too late. Ah, fashion! A woman should, mid usually does, wear her prettiest clothes to a. wedding, and by pretty we mean smart, too. Black, before not com- sideicd sixitsbie, in being worn more and more. At an afternoon wed- ding recently tluco quarters of the guests swept down the aisle to their places wearing block smut clothes with furs and. white gloves and looked very chic. Older women are more apt to drum fomally, GIIYIEBIC. (and quite

In any case, at a formal wedding in the evening, women guests wear full ball coo- tume, a perfect foil for the fiunily jewels. Evening wram and a has’, are wom to the church. Most women are heard to wail: "What will I wooi- u a hat?"

At s formal evening wedding male members of the bridal party and the guests wear formal evening clothes; tail coat, white pique u-aist- coat and tie oi plain white lawn or pique. Other accessories are pafent leather pumps or tics. plain black silk socks, white handkerchief and muffler and light grey gloves. A silk top hat or collapsible opera hat is worn with fomial evening clothes and an overcoat of black or dark blue. We shudder to think cf the peo- ple who inquire as to whether or not they can wear n. dinner coat (tuxedo) to a formal evening wed- ding. Even though formality has token a. back sent in recent years and the dinner coat is worn by a man to the theatre, to all informal parties, or when dining at home or in a restaurant, it is never, never worn to weddings. In the summer, formal attire for both aitemoon and evening wed- dings is white ilanneis and blui- jacket or the all-white suit arid to any informal wedding where the bride wears a street-length costume, a navy blue business suit is WJYTI by the bridegroom. his attendants and gentlemen guests.
