much as the state of “nation-
alism” as it exists in Europe
today, that is: dozens of sepa-
rate nations, both large and
small, necessarily selfish and
jealous of each other, attempt-
ing to live their individual
lives behind their common
boundary lines.
This outstanding exception
is the United States of Ameri-
ca: a vast grouping of geogra-
phical entities with different
climates, tastes, ideas and
modes of living: but having in
common one supreme interest
—the central government of
the United States. This inter-
est—excepting the four years
of our civil war—has held

harmony for one hundred and

“Pedestrians do not always
have the right-of-way.”
“Right-of-way is of no value
when you are dead.”
Be alert for traffic from all
directions.
Give both pedestrians and
motor vehicles the right-of-
way.
Before leaving a driveway
or crossing a street or highway,
look both ways and wait for
approaching traffic.
Do not ride on streets where
there is considerable traffic,
Do not ride alongside other
cyclists. 1 Bide in single file.
Do not ride double nor do
trick riding on streets or high-
ways.
Do not hitch to motor vehi-
cles or street cars.
Do r.ot play riding games in
the streets or on the highways.
Always keep your bicycle in
good condition.

the people a thing of terrible
import.
No one knows what the
present war, if fought to a fin-
ish, will bring forth, and this is
not intended as a prophecy:
hut it is not difficult to picture
a Europe so utterly devastated
that any straw will be grasped
at by the despairing people,
and that straw will unfortu-
nately not be “Democracy.”
That word won’t "sound so
good” to them by then.
Desperate people will be
rick of anything which reminds,
them of politicians; they will
scream against any form of
government except a “people’s
government”—a “proletarian
government.” That will have
a wonderful sound—The Peo-
ple’s Government! It has fool-
ed experts.
It fooled the level headed
French, and those same level
heads dropped into the basket
of the guillotine. It fooled the
Russians, and millions of un-
willing angels have been add-
ed to the population of Heaven
since that “great emancipa-
tor,” Mr. Stalin, became the
“people’s government” of all
the Russia’s. And it will fool
the rattled people of a desper-
ate. starving, fear-crazed Eu-
rope after they have been pun-
ished to the limit of human en-
durance by the nitroglycerine
of dictatorship and democracy.
What a picture to contem-
plate! All Europe under the
fron hand of some blood-thirsty
tyrant who will call himself
“the people’- government.”
The only ray of long dis-
tance hope, which shines
through the murky gloom of
this quite possible outcome of
a long and destructive war, is
the chance that the people,
though subjugated, will have
the opportunity in a few gen-
erations, to "breed up” their
manhood—which the last war
and the present one will have
sadly depleted—and eventual-
ly cast aside a tyrannical form
of government for a REAL
“people’s governmert”: a gov
eminent of the people, for the
people and by the p* iple. A
United States of Europe—and
peace on earth at last!
A hard road to travel for the
next fifty or a hundred years,
and strewn with the corpses of
millions of truing Vnmnn be-
ings who placed their faith in
their leaders and in the ability
of those leaders to solve the
problems with which they are
faced today.
