WASHINGTON COMMENT. The Prince of Wales, heir to the English Throne, has been installed as Senior Grand Warden of the Grand Lodge of Eng'and. Were it only an estimable and pleasant young man who was thus honored, the matter would be of no special importance. But the heir to the British Throne is not permitted to follow his own /will and bent as he pleases; he may never forget, in playing the man, that he is also Prince of the Realm. It should be a sufficient answer to any of the detractors of the order of Freemasonry that the president of this great Republic is a Freemason; that many of his predecessors have been Freemasons, and that the president, Washington, was not only a Freemason, but devoted his time and 4-r\ fVin Avrlor anrl Kopjjmp aUCIIUUll IU UK V1UV1) U..U Master of his lodge. But for those whose admiration and veneration are given more to those who lule by hereditary right than those who win to power by their own abilities and the will of the majority, the fact that the future king of England becomes a senior grand warden of the English Grand Lodge of Freemason ry, should be all sufficient proof that the diatribes directed against Freemasonry by those who are its enemies and who know not whereof they speak, are but the fulminations of minds untutored. Freemasonry stands for patriotism, for law and order, for fear and love i of God, without regard to church or creed, for charity, for toleration, for brotherly love and relief of distress, for education, for freedom; in other Words, for the ideals of all enlightened and civilized nations. That the future ruler of a great country thus takes his place officially in the grand body of the order, obviously with the consent and encouragement of . the rulers of Great Britain, should make those who slander the order for their own ends pause to wonder if the Masonic virtues of silence and circumspection are not ones which they had better cultivate. Statistics published by the health service of the American Red Cross show that deaths among children off school age due to accidents are pro-| portionstely much larger than among either young children or older per-1 sons. Out of each 1,000 deaths of! children between the ages of five and nine, 167 are due to accidents; of children between ten and fourteen,'. 177 are due to accidents. In proportion deaths due to accident among children under five years of age and among adults are quite small. No parents need to be told that the most valuable possessions they have are their children. But it appears that there is great need for some power to instill into the minds of civil authority the conviction that the most valuable asset the state possesses is its children. Accidents do not "happen." There is a cause for every accident. Particularly is this true of trafic accidents, which are assuming alarming proportions in the larger centers. Of what use is it to the municipality or the state to spend large sums in educating a child to grow up to be a good citizen if it permits him to be killed by an automobile before he becomes an economic factor in the community life? Cities and traffic bureaus search ?? *? 4 macuy ior remedies iur tnun ?,?dents; "safety weeks" are proposed, debated, held; new and more drastic traffic rules are formulated, and more or less enforced; mor^ severe penaltie* are inflicted by judges for driving reckless, but the accidents con- j tinue. It would seem that the engineering brains which built a Panama Canal, took two million men to Europe in the face of submarines, and built and! perfected the largest railroad and telephone systems in the world, might solve this problem, too. But while the remedy is left in the hands of policemen to formulate, no matter how interested or willing, or while I the answer to the problem is given into the hands of alderman, mayors, and leading citizens, no matter how well-meaning, we still continue to kill our children. ocoi^ontc tn the vounc is a subject of national concern, state concern, city and town concern, of such gravity and magnitude that their prevention deserves the consideration of the very best minds in the country. COME ONE! COME ALL! To Rock Branch school, Tuesday, November 21, at eight o'clock to see "Mrs Briggs of the Poultry Yard." Admission: 10 and 25 cents.?adv. Typewriter Supplies.
