These booster trips are for the
purpose Of forming better acquaint-
ance and understanding between the
jobbfng houses and manufacturers
and other institutions and their Gus
toners throughout the state, and
the history of past excursions proves
that great benefit results from these

by mail, but seldom, II ever, has an
opportunity of meeting the head Of
the institution from which he buys
his goods. On these trips, however,

Police Commissioner Woods of
aew York has prepared list 0,
"don'ts" for drivers and pedestrians
in order to decrease the dangers OF
the streets To drivers he gives the
following suggestions
Don't imagine you are a careful
driver because you shout or toot your
horn az a pedestrian CROSSING in front
Of you
Don't forget that the pedestrian also
is permitted TO use tie roadway.
Don't forget that the children must
play sometimes in the streets.
Don't fail to slow down at cross
ings
TO pedestrians the commissioner
said
Don't yacillate on the approach Of
a vehicle. Act normally.
Don't forget that the proper place
to cross the street is at the crossing.
Don't dream while crossing the
street; you are likely to wake up in
the hospital.
