TEACHING DRIVERS
THE TRAFFIC RULES
Many Vehicle Drivers are Slow to
Appreciate Road Rules and
object to Enforcement.

During the last few days policemen
have notified many drivers of We
hicles when they were violating traf-
fic rules by allowing horses or autos
to stand along the curb headed in the
wrong direction. When the attention
of many is called to it they willingly
comply but some object and wish to
have their own way in the matter,
Notwithstanding the fact that they
are made liable to damages through
accidents when violating the ordin>
ance and that it causes confusion
There are also some auto drivers
who delight in using the cut-out and
making as much noise as possible and
it is probable that a few of these will
be brought into the police court and
taught an object lesson by a big fine

famous Lion of Lucerne," and com

time
So realistic was the figure of the
lion that several horses who came

road threatened to carry their driv-

CLAW figure also gave a farmers wife
who resided in that vicinity the
fright of her life. Coming upon It

for help were heard by neighbors who
came running to see what had hap.
