A TOMBSTONE FOR MOTORISTS
An old-fashioned blue marble tombstone marks the -top of one
of the most dangerous hills for motoring in Pennsylyama. On the
stone are carved the words “Dangerous,’ ’and ‘jFourteen Miles to‘
the Nearest Hospital.” A skull and crossbones is tastefully carved
at the top of the stone.
This type of tombstone graces many an ancient cemetery and
bears witness that there was a time when men took the hazards of
life and death seriously. “Prepare for death.and follow.me was
their grim warning to the passer-by. Nobody mourns their passing
from popularity as cemetery memorials, but they reappear fitly as
‘warnings to the careless motorist.
The reckless driver never thinks that he is preparing for death,
but statistics prove his optimism is often unwarranted. Every time
he disregards safety precautions he is preparing for death—his own
or that of some victim of his selfishness. If he and his possible
victims are spared, it is not because safety precautions are unneces-
sary but because that day’s fool calendar is full.
The dour old tombstone probably will make a good many people

Although this mask is the result of study for military purposes,
it is hoped that it will seldom be necessary to use it in that way.
Otherwise the next step is for some chemist of minds and souls

men and women to do only one thing. An engineer 'or an architect ' ‘ ‘
or'a physician may know his own line pretty well, but he won’t
have any broad foundation of music, literature, art, sociology and
psychology or anything else. Too often he even specializes within
his own line, knowing only one sort of architecture or one branch
of the healing art.
