Our Town Council is pleased with
the way our citizens are taking up
with the street improvement. Unlike
many towns, the work is progressing
in Smyrna with comparatively little
objection and the unanimity with
which our citizens are urging along
street and municipal improvement is
most encouraging. Property owners
seeing the need of permanent streets,
are having their properties connected
with water, sewer and gas and the
Street Committee is having little or
no trouble IN the matter. We are
glad to note these conditions prevail
ing in our town. 1t shows the right
public spirit and enterprise. 1t may
mean a sacrifice in some cases, but all
will be amply repaid in having an
improvement that is permanent and
lasting and we hope a pride to the
town.

The showing made by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad system in the way of
fatal accidents during the year 1908,
as contained in a recent official state
ment, is a remarkable one. Not cnly
was the total of fatalities much less
than the previous year-the reduction
was 81.6 per cent-but the list did
not include single passenger. Also,
of the 141, $50, SAB passengers carried
during the year only 1O2 were injured,
or only one out of every 1888, 819.
This showing attests the fact that
travelling on the Pennsylvania rail-
road system has been reduced almost
to the minimum in respect of danger
of loss of life, or personal injury.
The English railroads for years led
the world in respect of safety of pass
engsrs, but few of them can equal and
none exceed this extraordinary record
made by the Pennsylvania Railroad
system during the year 1908. Every
Evening.
