It was a statute which had been drawn up by safety men after exhaustive study and one designed to meet conditions as they then existed. The legislature, to be frank, emasculated this proposal, adopting in its place a mere skeleton of the statutes which have brought about improved conditions in other areas. It had its reasons, of course. It did not want to inconveni- ence any more persons than necessary. It did not want to set up a bureaucratic organization to interfere with still more of the people’s affairs. It did not want to spend the money necessary to administer a real driver's license law, even though the driv- ers themselves would have to pay for it. ‘And the fact is there was little demand from motorists for such a step. In that day and time the legislature probably act- ed wisely. But 1987 will bring another session and new consideration of this problem. The slaughter upon our highways has con- tinued at an even greater rate than before while in states where e aper 2 tients of proper laws have been adequately entorced there has been a} decline. Their records have been good and ours, frankly, has been bad. Still another factor enters into the situation. That is the Jegalization of liquor in this state. Whether more hard drinks are being consumed now than before repeal may be a question, but legalization of liquor brings into the open the issue of what to do about men who mix the Alcohol in their stomachs with the gasoline in a motor car's * vitals. ’ Admittedly, it is a bad combination; one liable to cause disaster not only to the mixers but to innocent drivers and pas- sengers in other vehicles who may become the victims of drink- befuddled driving. Undoubtedly a strengthening of the automobile driver's license law will help meet this condition. Drivers who might not worry greatly over the possibility of accident might con- sider it a calamity to lose their drivers license. Since they usually are selfish people they probably would. If the people of the state want to keep on with present conditions it is their privilege. If they want to do something to reduce the toll of dead and maimed persons they should in- torm their legislators that they favor adoption of the standard drivers license act. An Announcement In connection with the consideration which this newspaper asks be given to strengthening of the drivers license law, it wishes to make an announcement as to its own policy. It has not been the custom of The Tribune to print the tiames of persons who are arrested on charges of drunkenness. There has seemed to be no point to holding them up to the op- probrium of their neighbors when they were harming only themselves. This policy will be continued. The most interest- ing things which go on in a city do not, necessarily, occur in a police court. But with regard to driving automobiles while intoxicated this newspaper wishes now to announce a firm stand in favor of adequate publicity. Arrests on such charges may or may not be given publicity, depending upon whether or not anyone was injured. Such charges are not always well founded and this newspaper desires to give everyone fair treatment. i It does say, however, that anyone CONVICTED of driving while drunk or who PLEADS GUILTY to such a charge will be refused if he asks The Tribune to keep his name out of print. The reasons for this are easily understood. A drunken man at the wheel of an automobile is just as much a menace as an insane man with a gun. When his interests are matched “against those of innocent persons who may be killed or injured by him they become insignificant. Every man is responsible for his own actions. If he gets into that kind of a mess he should be punished. 5 Another consideration is the necessity for supporting the courts. If judges are to mete out just punishment in such cases they must have public support. The Tribune intends to give them that kind of support. : Egg Price Outlook If the government experts know their business—and they usually do—the little red hen may be a big factor in restoring prosperity to North Dakota, particularly if she minds her bus- iness and lays a lot of eggs.

Dates for block meet- ings will be set following the con- ference. A. C.

You didn’t expect it would go right along shining beside the road like an auto light, did you?” and Tommy, holding his sister's hand, walked on briskly until, as they rounded the curve and came up to the bridge, he almost shouted, “There it i jain bright as never was! I guess the best way will be for us to stay right on the road until we get real close.”” The words had barely l2ft his lips, when a hubbub came from the direction of the house. and the full- cry baying of Toby sounded, com- ing straight toward them. “Oh, he'll find us and spoil it all,” wailed Tommy dancing ur and down in his disappointment, which ended ‘almost as soon’as it began, for the moment that the dog reached them he ceased giving tongue, and in a paroxysm of joy boundec about them all excitement at the scent of the many trails held down by the frost, then pawed the ground and seemed to ask them to take him with them for a walk. Stumbling along the road full of frozen ruts, the children were con- tinually stopping to get breath; yet as soon as they bared their faces the keen wind lashed them cruelly. Sometimes when for several min- utes they lost sight of the Star, Bess would begin to cry and then an other glimpse would make her wipe her eyes on the rough mittens and push on. = After they had traveled something over a mile in this way Tommy began to realize that not only was he growing tired, but that Bess w: hanging so heavily on his arm that he was bearing half her weight. | As he hesitated, wondering if they must turn back and give up the ‘quest and the surprise, there came a break in the trees that had walled the road to this point and the out- line of a fence and some low build- ings seemed to block the way, which, in fact, merely curvec sharp- be no clumping. Then Tommy hes- itated for a moment wondering how he should get out; as he did s Bess launched herself at his neck with such force that he almost fell over, and, prying his ear from un- der his closely drawn cap whis- pered, so close that her eager lips tickled him: ® “Where is the star? I want to sec the Star before I go out in the cold! ‘Cause you know if we don’t have one to go after we could never find the baby in the dark.” For the first time realizing his amall sister’s understanding, and being quite taken aback by her question, Tommy tubbed a little place in the frost covering of one of the two southwest windows of the room and looked out. There were plenty of stars blinking and dancing, but no one in particular that caught his eye or seemed easy. to reach. From the east window the prospect was more promising. “There's a lot of them out this way,” he announced, “‘and some are real big, but, they're too high up even for an airship to reach. CHAPTER X—Continued 18— As he lay in his feather nest, perfectly comfortable but growing more alert each moment, it grad- ually came to him that it must be father that made the difference. If father could only see a live Christ- baby might it not make him take an interest in Christmas too, since, s grandfather had said, the long- go Christ-child had made the whole world so much happier. So Tommy thought, guided by in- stinct and the faith that makes childhood a sensitive plate upon which almost invisible impressions are photographed, and Tommy barely eight years old. “oon all his other rambling ideas were merged in one, to find the Star and then the discovery of the Christ- baby would surely follow. How sur- prised and pleased grandmother and grandfather would be, for, of course, the matter must be kept a secret from them until the right time came. Secrets and surprises being the two chief joys of healthy childhood. Letting himself carefully down from his feather bed, Tommy drew the covers back in place to keep it warm until his retu Next he put on his clothes very slowly and with difficulty, not realizing until he came to his shoes and stuck- ings that their tightness arose from the fact that his flannel pajamas were underneath. A smothered, elf- ish laugh at the moment that he was tying his shoes, announced that: Bess was also awake and watch- « ing him. What could he do? To take her with him would delay mat- ters, if ne left her behind she would cry, he would have to tell grand- mother why he was going out and so there would be no surprise. Creeping over to Bess’ cot, he pulled the sheet over their heads as he whispered his plan, in which she joined with giggling delight, begging him to help her to which he did, making her 8) ‘on the bed meanwhile so that the|’ floor would not squeak. ‘Have you got the presents?” ‘What was the great Star.
