Septernber 23rd to 29th marks Cafiecla's 14th National IninaMiza- thin Week, vorisortel by the Health League of Canada as re/hinder to parents that their children are not safe ,from. the ravages of strial/PDX, diphtheria, whooping cough or te- tanUa unless they are lulratunited, • The Attorney General's Department, Provincial Police, the Department of Highways and 'such or- ganizations as the Ontario Safety League have been, and are continuing to .promote the kind of driving that will reduce highway accidents, The police have, and will continue to curb the kind of driving that ends in a death: These efforts are making the pro- gress, noted on provincial highways. But what about local traffic fatalities? . Frequently the victim of, motor. mayhem on local streets is a pedestrian' and too often the victim is .a ,child. To' cope with this local traffic toll in On- tario cities and towns, the Attorney ,General has stressd: "We are particularly interested in formation of local, safety councils and in the maintenance of. these local safety councils at a high standard of ef- ficiency. They are not only very worthwhile, they are essential to a fully successful traffic safety drove," Ontario has 97a municipalities—cities, towns and villages where traffic safety is of. concern. "We would i get at the root of this safety problems" 5.y'S Attorney ' General Roberts, "if every solitary ,municipality or- gapized a safety council, put at its head a responsible citizen aware Of the problems,,,,and determined to solve thni at the local 'level." ' 1 The attorney general's NN'ords have, more than or- di ary meaning right here in our own town, where pr ,cautions in regard to the safety of children are sketchy to say the least. • i . Air initial move in this direction was made at a regent meeting of the town council when"that body granted the chief of police authority to rent•electronic eqiiipment to curb speeding, "-The formation of a safety council would provide a grbup of interested' citizens who would be specifi- cally concerned with a concentrated study of the prob- len f. s:Nhich exist right here in Wing-ham. Points of ha ard=to motorists and pedestrians alike could then be reviewed and appropriate adtion recominended. • CoMplacenCy about safety; , particularly ' as concerns the children of a community is inexcusable. We are ihardinately proud of our fine ' hospital, our new schools and industries., Should we not he equally proud of a realistic progi-am of accident -prevention ,-- before tragedy strikes? * * 4DOGS VERSUS CHILDREN No, we don't expect people to keep - their dogs tied up all year round because there, area few young- sters who fear them. But w,e can'see the children's side of the picture too. Only the other day we came to the rescue of a small schoolgirl on her way to class. al was backed up against a tree, screaming in, sheer terroiras a big black dog frolicked around her. All the dog wanted to do was play. All the child wanted to do was sprout wings. The Wingharn Advance.Times Published at Wingham, Ontario Wenger Brothers, Publishers; W.

So far we have kept her following the rosy 'of education —, but if there were ,a few .less dogs wandering around her future Mould be a great deal brighter. It must be recognized that some children, are born with an abject fear of animals, which no amount of explanation by adults can alter. Our own young- ster is so terrified of dogs that she cannot bring her- self to touch the good-natured pup which plays every day with the children down the street, Her fear is so basic that as a baby she hated the feel of fur on a garment, . We know of a few other parents in town who would gladly see every last dog banished from the community as they face the daily battle of persuading their •children to go to School and face the dogs along the way. Of course the dogs won't be banished,, for this is a free country. The dog owner has as much right to his pet as the rest of us have to our children, tut by golly, it would be grand to see our youngsters scaring the daylights ottt of your dogs fora change. 400,041 The Bible Today .
