The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-10-25

gazing abstractedly at group of golf ers as he glided by the Country club 1 links, the advent of the Haynes into l the Light Six field marks an epoch ] in the American automobile industry as the Haynes company has heretofore | manufactured cars of the 5000 and 5000 class exclusively. But this season, after | 22 years of experimenting, the Haynes | Light Six comes forth in finish and l equipment equal to any car on the mar ket and it sells under the $1500 mark. truly wonderful value. It marks the l Haynes 1915 product as the sensation of the automobile world. It is a real Haynes car that maintains the Haynes prestige | in every sense of the word.'' My, but that man knew all the good points of his automobile and in all mod esty he admitted them. No harm in that, when you've got the real artice-boost 1t!
 But about your Safety First move l nent? was question fired at MT. Young as after crossing through the maze of city streets, the beauties of Norwoood boulevard were being explored. "Oh, yes" was the reply, that should | be taken up in the public schools. It's something I got together some time ago | for I claim to the the daddy of the l Safety First movement in this locality" l Then the papers" were brought forth ma the rlBntS or others ana VIII eXerclSe chug, as the rocky road to Vanderbilt pike came in sight. It readeth this way: This is written in the interest of hu- l rlanity by an enthusiastic motorist who | realizes the importance of the automobile I as vehicle of commerce and pleasure and that the earlier this movement of | Safety First is started the more effec- l tive it will be, one who respects the law and hte rights of others and will exercise every effort in this all-important cam paign to save life and limb.
 You pick up your paper and see where some child was run down and some per son hurt that probably the mere ex- pression of Safety First on your part may have been the prevention of this ac- | cident. sx Bring this matter home to you and weigh 1t thoroughly and you will join this l movement if you have a heart in you | as large as a pinhead.
 'Tt is not a question of dollars and cents; it is a question of saving human ! life. the most valuable thing in the world, which, when once gone, can never be brought back. It is trying to save men from losing their legs and their arms, which never can be put back: 1t is l trying to save the making of widows and orphans, trying to checkmate destitution and misery.
 "The officers cannot do 1t: the law cannot do it. There Is no one to do 1t but just you, and if you will you can do it as simply as turning your hand"
 "Since the birth of this movement it has spread to all the important indus l tries of the world and Is now taking its hold on our streets and highways where it can be applied with the same telling effect it has had on railroads, mines and large industries where num- bers of people are employed. Between 80 and 90 per cent of the accidents that occur on our streets and highways are directly chargeable to carelessness and can be avoided, as shown by statistics of our larger cities. by the cooperation of every user of the streets and highways.
 "Something must be done to stop the loss of life and injury to men. women and children and by systematic co-op- eration of everyone it can be brought about without drastic remedies or rev oiutionarx methods.
 'Motorist. teamster, pedestrian, will you cooperate in the saving of a life of one who may be near to you. or fl not to you, someone else?
 Let's begin q campaign right now and by the assistance of all the busi- ness organizations, churches schools

 ones to profit by this movement. 2, We have our "Go-to-Church Sunday,
 'Mothery' Day" and others which ar, deserving of attention, but there is nt more importance in any than in thi
 movement. so why not set aside som'
 day in the early future that this mat
