MUST DRIVE SLOWER
Sheriff Starts Campaign Against
Speeding in County.

Because of numerous automobile
accidents recently on the country
roads around Topeka and the speed
at which country drivers travel, Hugh
Larimer, sheriff, issued a warning to-
day. He quotes the law and calls at
tention to the fact that there are
speed and road regulations outside
the city limits as we'll as on the streets
inside.
Larimer has notified all his deputies
as well as his special deputies, the
latter stationed outside the city, to
keep a close watch upon all machines
and see to it that speed is kept within
the state law.
Forty miles an hour is the extreme
limits on country roads and less than
that if it endangers the life end
limb" of any person. At the intersec-
tions of highways and at railway
crossings the. state law requires that
speed be reduced to eight miles an
hour. The state regulations for front
and rear lights are the same as the
city ordinance.
