PAGE TWO Speeding Up . . . It is wartime and there is speeding up all along the line. The general speeding up is, of course, necessary and is to some extent benificial. Some aspects of it are not to the best interests of the people. The matter of street traffic is a case in point. Some fast car drivers are making it almost impossible for pedestrians to use the streets especially on streets where there are no side-Walks. Another nuisance is the road hog who is a menace to even the most careful driver. With traffic greater than ever, there is need for more care than ever on the part of motorists in Prince Rupert. In many cases possibly the great majority there is no necessity for great speed. Excessive speed is, of course, punishable by law. Name of New Area . . . The Daily News is offering a prize of $5 to the person suggesting the name considered best for the new area of Wartime Housing building.between Sixth Avenue and Overlook Street across Hays Creek. Send in your suggestion to this paper and it will be duly considered. The name will not be official but once attached such a name usually clings if it gets newspaper support and use. Prejudices ... All men are prejudiced, and. the only question is why and how far and what personal and social dangers are involved. Many prejudices are harmless and even help to add to the interest and variety of life, but others are dangerous and lead to a distortion of judgment and no little suffering. Such prejudices as we call fads, whether they be dietary or hygienic or social, ae usually harmless. They are professedly based on scientific ideas which, however, may be exaggerated or twisted out of recognition. One may ruin his health by faddish diet in the name of science but social penalty comes only if upset nerves lead to antisocial acts. Other prejudices are called conventions and they are justifiably classed as prejudices because they are not completely rational. The heritage of folkways governing dress, decorum and speech is an emotional matter, which can seldom be reduced to logic. Other prejudices are called matters of taste, as they touch on beauty, the fitnesses of things, and our preferences in friendship and love. None of these prejudices is dangerous, except as the faddist may become a fanatic, the conventionalist a snob, and the man of taste a dilettante. But beyond these there are dangerous prejudices, which involve ignorance of facts, distortion of facts and cruelty. These should be carefully guarded against so they may not spread. As with greatness, we are born with some prejudices, we achieve others, and have still others thrust upon us. Seal Cove Road ... It is gratifying to see that the city is taking steps to bring about a relief of traffic congestion on the Seal Cove road. Due to the great increase in activity at that end of town, the far end of the Sixth and Seventh Avenue route Jias become a bottle neck for traffic. There is danger of accident, possibly serious one, at any time. True, claims may be justly made for improvement of roads and streets elsewhere around the city but Seal Gove seems 'to'be t-he most pressing of all for the moment and something should be done about remedying the situation there at the earliest possible date. -Miss Dorothy Blake Becomes Bride Of Lance Corporal Stanley Vickerman On Wednesday evening a pretty wedding was solemnized at the home of the bride's parents, 216 Seventh Avenue West, Rev. iCapt.i E.
