SERVICE Forum In Hullet Township Wins Safety Essay Prize in Hub fudged o£ the in con- Fireside 'Farm Forum, let Township, has been Huron 'County winner provincial essay contest nection with Ontario Rural Safe Driving Week, Federation Field­ man ‘Gordon 'Greig announced. The forum’s essay, which wins $10, will be forwarded to prov­ incial finals. Elimination of hazards an Car­ ter’s hill near Londesborq was the suggestion of the Fireside group. The essay read, In part: “Numerous accidents have oc­ curred at 'Garter’s hill, lot 14, con. 9, and at bridge, lot 18, eon 3, 'Scarifying and sanding of all slippery and narrow Places could eliminate much hazard. ’’The forum members have signed a petition for removal of top of this narrow hill. Jt has gone to council. “TWO lane entrances are on top of the hill. Snow fences, trees, road fences and steep side banks eliminate Mr. Carter’s vi­ sibility to oncoming traffic.’’ Most of the entries for the contest came from the northern part of the county; only two were entered from South Huron. Unique Farm Forum, .of Zurich, through its secretary, Herb. Klopp, submitted these safe­ ty ideas: “The main cause of automobile accidents in our community .is people not thoroughly knowing and understanding our 'traffic laws. “'Some- farm forum review night could be used in teaching traffic laws. We could have films on .safe driving prepared and dis­ tributed by Ontario 'Safety Lea­ gue; also an experienced traffic officer as speaker. Following this we could have discussion .groups on the subject. “Thus by seeing, hearing and discussing safe driving practices, we might gain a better under­ standing of the rules, “We believe that every five years all drivers should be com­ pelled to. taka a driving fsst as well as written examinations .on traffic rules and regulations,. Per­ haps then they would become safety conscious” Safety suggestions from the Hensail Institute, submitted by Mrs. Earle iSproat, were: “The chief cause of automobile accidents in Hensail community is speed and selfishness. The sug­ gestion in that they reduce speed and adjust to driving conditions. “Make sure when passing you have a clear road. Keep your mind on your driving at aR times and keep on right side of .centre ■road. Be watchful and tolerant of the other fellow’s driving .pro­ cedure. Observe ethics of roads when entering highways and crossing roads. - Parents should set a good ox- ample with correct driving pro­cedure in front of growing child­ ren. Keep car and brakes in i4-l shape. Try to anticipate the other driver’s moves. Well-lighted nar­ row bridges and wider approach­ es to same. Watch for trains at crossing.” Huron Federation's ,Safe Driv­ ing Banquet, a feature of Rural Safe Driving Week, will be held 'Monday night, February 20, at Blyth Memorial Hall with Opl. J. ■E.
