Levin- son, who presented a paper on the subject at last summer's annual meeting of the Ameri; can Psychological Association. In the first place, he says, "The mere discussion of what the child can da for the pet forces the child to turn his thoughts outwardly, and to think of himself in relation to his par: ents and his pet. The child may thus learn that he, too, like his parents, has to undergo many Inconveniences for the sake of the loved one." Second, "he further learns that sharing a loved object, a pet, does not mean losing it or that the loved object loves one less merely because It also ---- - offers its love to others." That Is, when the child sees that a dog can love many members of a family without taking thing away from him, he comprehends how parents can love more than one child without diminishing the supply because of this. 2 And, last, the child discovers that, though he is vexed when the dog is naughty; he does not love it any less, but just wants to make it act better. Thus, can come to terms with his own "badness," and feel that he can still be acceptable and loved (for Many children fear that parental love will be withdrawn when they are "bad.") . . , - , .. -, I- ., - .. - There were two articles in the paper recently. One told of the tragic death of a small girl not yet three stranded on a traffic island, making sevattempts to cross a street in vain, being yarned about crossing by a passing motorist, and Ahe .end result being crushed underneath the wheels of a - large truck. The other article told of three children drown-an- d in a reservoir, one falling in the other two drowning in an attempt to save the other one. Where is the worse tragedy --- three children dying for love of one another or one child dying needlessly because one person out of the many cared not enough to lead her to safety?

I think the next trouble is with the roads and streets or their layouts that were made for horse and buggy day travel of perhaps five to 10 miles per hour. On many of these there is a change that can be made that will eliminate left hand turns and cross traffic into right hand turns and merging traffic.
