‘SUPPOSE MR. SPEEDER
Suppose that your child should leave
its own yard
For a romp, or in search of a ball,
If its mother were busy, or had not
the time
To step out and give it a call;
Suppose that some speeder should race
down your street,
As though he were taking a <kre,
And crush the life out of your little
child—
Mr. Speeder, do you think you
would care?
Suppose that your mother were cross
ing the street—
Your mother, now feeble and old,
And some reckless driver should
knock her aside,
Leaving her lifeless and cold.
Could you find an excuse for this
careless act?
Would you really think it were
fair ?
Kow, putting yourself in this fellow’s
place,
Mr. Speeder, do you think you
would care ?
Suppose that a loved one you hold
very dear
Were the victim of some speed
er’s game,
And he lay in his bed, just day after
day,
All crippled and helpless and
lame;
Suppose that he never could walk any
more,
No longer your pleasure could
share,
Just lie there and suffer, day in and
day out,
Mr. Speeder, do you think you
would care?
Oh! how little you think of the other
man’s pain
In your lawless pleasure and
greed;
How little you care what it costs
someone else
When you drive at your dare
devil speed.
Should this trouble occure in your
family some day,
For YOU and your loved ones to
share.
You’ll lessen your speed, and you’ll
take time to think—
And then, Mr. Speeder, you’ll
car«.
