That bond will never break.” We think that Mr. Dawes hit the nail on the head when he said that peace between the English-speaking peoples was based on common in- stincts and ideals, and that the tn- stinct of self-preseryation bound the two peoples together in a bond that will never break. A friendship 50 based is as enduring as time. Confer- ences may fail, but such a friendship will never change. There may be a momentary resentment but after the moke of battle—verbal, net physical as rolled away, the two peoples will realize that their safety and the progress of humanity depends upow their sticking together. y Following so soon after the diss agreement at Geneva, the dedicat of the new peace bridge ~was declaration to the world that Angi American friendship 1s a genuine thing, and that propagandists who seek to separate the two peoples will lave their work for nothing. A Real Menace Demand Right To Speed Have Spoiled Driving For Pleasure ‘Today there is a great demand for | |the most essential thing demanded by the motorist. The Department of Highways re- cognized this early in tho year, and in answer to public demand on the part of motorists raised the speed limit on country roads from twenty- five to thirty-five miles an hour But | motorists are not satisfied with the new limit. They are purchasing cars capble of much greater speed, and \they are demanding the right to use \the power stored up in their motors. This is an indication. of the pres ent ag’ — the speed age — and there are those who look for an increased legal speed limit in the years to come. Each year cars are travelling faster on the highways, and with this increased speed the dangers and per ils of motor trafiie are becoming im mensely greater. There are.some motorists who are gradually giving up the preasuves of a country drive. and who are oven refusing to drive their ears in the ‘cities as a resuli of this tendeney on the part of the general public wv £0 faster and faster—Chatham News.
