 Now that we have the promise that the school building will be made safe, let us insist and urge that a fiagman or some means of security be placed at the danger ouS crossings at once, Let us not sit down and wait until one of those fast trains going at lightning speed without even so much as the warning whistle, crashes into a crowd of little children, ond we are made to to realize that awful cry, "Too late, too late"

when the block sig nal Vas placed
in the clear position, after the opera
tor had reached the station, Flagman
Law thought that the conductor had
his orders and was ready to proceed,
and he therefore came in and stood
near the real end of his train.
she also thought that the operator
was in touch with the dispatcher, and
that the operator knew that no other
train was in the block. The first he
knew Of the approach Of second No. l8
was when the head brakeman called
to him from the station that the train
was coming. He then started back
for the switch, and at the same time
heard the whistle for the highway
crossing, about a quarter OF a mile
west of the house track switch. He
was unable to reach the switch in
time to throw it Or to flag the train in
time to prevent the collision

both sections is detailed at some
length. The report also discusses
steel cars and says that if these had
been wooden cars the destruction of

been much greater.
