Safety in the automobile is optional at no extra cost.' No mechanical
safety device can replace the protection of careful driving.
Last year, traffic a'cci ents claimed the -lives of more Canadians,
than ever 'before. Someone Was injured every. 8 minutes. A car .was
damaged every' 48 seconds, Automobile insurance claims rose to more
than $150,000,000. •
One result of this is higherautomobile insurance rates "-= because
what .is paid out in claims' must be brought in by premiums, But even more
important is the fact that you 'hold your life, and the lives of others, in
your hands when you getbehind tle, wheel of a car.
Safety pays dividends .:. saves lives, helps to lower, your insurance
costs. Be Careful.

As for the kids, I used to think
they were around a lot when they
were still in school. But now, you
can't turn around without falling
over a kid. They're up with the
blasted 'birds in the morning, and
you can't scare them to bed ' at
night.' Their conversation' has only
two themes: "What is‘there to do?"
delivered in whining accents; and
"When are you going to take us
swimming?" in threatening vein;
Sumnier, you're just a teaser.
