"For the Ckildren's .Sake"
An open letter
to every motorist in Ontario
We have learned to think of Christmas as the children's festival
-the time when child -hopes and happiness are lifted high in every
home in city, town, and village.
But Christmas -tide is very often a season of icy roads and slippery
streets, when driving becomes difficult and dangerous, and cars slide
and slip over the treacherous surface. It is the time when accidents
and fatalities can happen without warning -unless drivers realize the
imperative need for added care and extra caution.
Throughout the province to -day, thousands of children are eagerly
anticipating the coming of Christmas, and the joy of the days to
follow when the presents and pleasures of that day will bring renewed
happiness and enjoyment.
If, by any fault of driving or from any neglect of some simple
rule of safety, you were to deprive one of these children of
health and strength, even of life itself -what a responsibility would
be yours! For the children's sake, this appeal is made to you, and to
every motorist in Ontario: that throughout this winter, you undertake
to drive carefully, cautiously, sanely, and safely, lest one child's life
be lost, or one little form crippled or torn? Don't let any home in
Ontario be darkened by sorrow and sadness this Christmas -tide
because YOU did not drive carefully enough.
This is an objective worth the effort -and its cost is only a little
more care as you drive.
More and more the considerate motorists of Ontario are realizing
how much depends upon them, in the campaign for safety driving on
our roads. It is a matter of deep gratification to know that fatalities in
which automobiles are concerned are decreasing in this province.
From January 1st to October 31st, 1933, there were 71 less fatalities
of that character than in the same period last year.
For this marked improvement in safety -driving the Government
of Ontario offers its thanks and congratulations to the motorists of
the province. It is a definite indication that the majority of drivers
of automobiles in Ontario are co-operating in a real endeavour to
reduce the death -toll of the open road.
To ensure that this gratifying improvement is maintained during
the dangerous clays of winter, as well as throughout the corning year,
will YOU not make this resolution, if for no other reason than "for
the children's sake": to protect life and health by driving with care
and caution, by observing the simple rules of the road, and by
making safety your motto as you drive along the highways and the
by -ways: of the Province?
