Gently received from the Southern

Bearing out the statement that it's
better TO wait at a grade crossing
than in a Doctors office, the article
goes ON to say that every year there
is an increase in motor vehicle acct
dents at railroad grade crossings.
NO matter what safeguards we
throw about our grade crossings, our
labor is in vain without your help"
reads the story All signs, bells,
whistles, gates and flagmen are help
less before an auto drivers reckless
ness.
For the purpose of observing the
care exercised by drivers of motor We
hicles this com 1any placed men at a
large number of grade crossings on
this line. Their observations were
startling. OF o3, 800 drivers 50 per
cent looked neither way before. cross
ing the railroad track. Eight per cent
looked one WY only, and but IA
drivers, or 52-100ths OF per cent. &C,
