The government does not’go.to the expense of in­ stalling these signs merely as a means of getting rid of the people’s money, but they are intended to de­ crease the number of accidents. If every person would observe the ad­ vice thus given it would have a ma­ terial effect on the amount of copy sent the newspapers of the country. The railway crossings signal, “stop’ look, listen,” is also ignored by many motorists particularly. Some for­ get about t'he crossing and the pos­ sibility of an’ approaching train be­ ing close at hand, while others rely upon the speed of their cars jto carry them safely past the point of danger. It may be that in time people will find out that it will pay to stop when advised to do so by these sig­ nals. of ob- aref I j ( i | to his neighbor that when the fat woman got up he was going to pinch hen seat, (. < SAFETY FIRST oversized woman, explaining companion why she got off backwards, said that she The to her the cai overheard one of the straphangers who stood in front of Iter, Whisper ■ Berta and .a month in -Manitoba.
