In an attempt to avoid this. traf-

”L onto Cross street. But this is just a
make-shift plan. because the road
transversed along the detour is in
terrible shape, and is bound to slow
up traffic and make the jam even
thicker and harder to handle.
Isn't it curious that with traffic
regulations in such a. chasm state
here. we have as a neighbor one of
~. the world's foremost traffic experts,
.WilliamlPhelps Eno?
Mr. Eno. who resides in Saugatuck
- during the' summer. is chairman of
the board of directors of the Elm
Foundation for Highway Traffic
Regulation. Inc.
In an interview published in The
Evening Sentinel a few days ago,
Mr. Eno stated: ,
"Please understand. the question
of traffic regulation is a pretty big
one and it is impossible to give in a
few words a general idea of it. but
you can say to the City of Norwalk
that the Euo Foundation is at its
service to recommend measures to
be taken to simplify its problems."
Here It an invitation by a man.
who has helped solved traffic prob-
isms in London. Paris and other
European cities. to place the expert
‘ advice and service of the Eric
' Foundation at the disposal of Nor-
‘ walk. Let's not neglect this oppor-
'. tunity.
‘ Mr. Eric suggests among other
things that Norwalk incorporate in
its code the model traffic ordinance
“‘ _. which appears in the October num-
ber of the American City Magazine.
This ,ordinance. he states. calls for
the adoption of the Council of Na-
tional Defense Code of General
Highway Traffic Regulations. which
is the outgrowth of the New York
regulations.
- One of the objects of the Eric
Foundation is to have these general
regulations standardized throughout
_ the country. which will obviate the
2‘ danger which comes from different
\ regulations in different cities.
The Evening Sentinel suggests that
the Common Council at a session in
_ the near future invites Mr. Eno or a
‘5‘ represetative of the Eno Foundation
to discuss and recommend a scienti-
fic program. and rules and regula-
tions for the proper handling of
traffic here. In this way the city
will have advice which will assist
‘ it is establishing its traffic code on
O solid basis.

DINNER STORIES
John Ruskin was wont to attack
all and sundry with a savage mer-
riment which even his best friends
at times resented. Once he wrote a
friend hoping that a. fierce criticism
written by him of his friend's picture
would make no difference to their
friendship. To which the friend had
the wit to reply:
"Dear Ruskin-«Next time I meet
you I shall knock you down. but I
hope it will ~make no diaerence to
our friendship."
Mrs. Jones had Just engaged 'a
new cook and she had only one mis-
giving about the matter. Bridget
was not at all bad looking. and she
feared the, young men would be
hanging around.
"Now. remember." Mrs. Jones said
to her the first morning after break-
fast. "no followers are allowed to
the kitchen. My last cook had to
leave for not keeping to that rule."
A few days
went to the culinary department on
a tour of inspection. She opened
the door of a large cupboard an to
her great surprise. found a. po ce-
man standing there. She turned on
accusing eye on Bridget.
“What's the meaning of this?"
she asked angrily.
“I dunno." promptly replied Brid-
get: "he must have been left there
by the last cock."

Peace. when it comes. will be the
result of education. and not of di-
plomacy. in effect this has- been
said many times.
As Thomas Huxley put it:
"Education promotes pence by
teaching men the realities of life and
the obligations which are involved in
the very existence of society.
"It promotes the intellectual de-
velopment. not only by training the
individual intellect. but by sifting
out of the masses of ordinary or in-
ferior capacities. those who are
competent to increase the general
welfare by occupying higher posi-
tions;
“Lastly. it promotes morality and
refinement, by teaching men to dis-
cipline themselves. and by leading
them to see that the highest. as it is
the only permanent. content is to
be attained. not by grovclling in the
rank and steaming valleys of sense.
but by continual striving towards
those high peaks where. resting in
eternal calm. reason discerns the un~
defined but bright ideal of the,high—
est Good."
I O O
Huxley t‘ok it that the good of
mankind means the attainment. of
every man, of all the happiness he
can enjoy without diminishing the
*0! the social body influence all the
happiness of his fellowmen.
e O O
“The higher the state of civiliza-
tion." he observes. “the more com-
pletely do the actions of one member
rest, and the less possible it is-for
any one man to do a. wrong thing
without interfering. more or less.
with the freedom of all his fellow-
citizens."
. O O
The very existence of society de-
pends, he held. on the fact that ev-
ery membér of it tactily admits that
he is not the exclusive pomessor of
himself. and that he admits the
claim of the policy of which he
forms a part. to act. to some extent
as his master.
"Surely there is a time to submit
to guidance and a time to take one's
way at all hazards." he wrote.
"Individualism, pit/shed to anarchy
in the family, is ill-founded theore-
tically and as mischievous practically
as it is in the State: while extreme
regimentation is a. certain m'cans of
either destroying self-reliance or of
maddening to rebellion."'
I O O
The only freedom Huxley cared
about was the freedom to do right.
"The freedom to do wrong 1 am
willing to part with on the cheap-
est tern. to anyone who will take
it of me."

Perhaps Robert Baylir would not
have felt the press of circumstances
so disheartonlugiy if he had been
fortunate to have had at that time a
friend and confidante whom he
might trust to hear his troubles and
