Mr. Editor: We wish to call atten-' tion to the rapid and reckless driving of a certain class of young boys, about town. This fact was brought forciblyi to our notice on Sunday afternoon.' We had been riding on the other side of the river, and upon approaching the bridge, saw a car standing in a side i road, skirting a field. At first sight, we thought it a disabled car. but soon saw that it was filling up, with young, boys, a dozen or more some even stand.' ing on the running board. As we cross-; ed the bridge, they came tearing be-1 hind and realizing how narrow the1 lane is, at that particular place, we waved them back. In reply they ac- ' celerated their speed, and dashed by us at a break-neck rate. Had their car or ours swerved an inch, a fearful i accident would have inevitably, been I the result. They continued this speed, i until reaching the garage on second street. We see instances of this recki less driving, every day of the week, up > and down market street, where little children are constantly passing, and it is only a miracle that some one is not injured. Now that the Christmas halidays are near some may feel it incumbent upon them to "celebrate" and thus increase the danger. Those in authority should certainly take the matter in hand, and punish these law breakers, make a few of them be. and we feel confident we would then suffer, regardless of whom they may enjoy greater order, and more consideration for the safety of life.
