CROSSING GUARD
ONP. & R. ORDERED
Service Board Demands Watch
man at OreIand and Annun-
ciator at Roslyn
HEAVY TRAFFIC AT 2 POINTS

The Public Service Commission has
ordered the Reading Railway to station
watchmen at the Oreand grade cross
ing, where Miss Elizabeth d. Lock
wood, of Chestnut Hill, and Miss Julia
3. Lear, of Germantown, were killed
recently when their automobile was
struck by n Reading train.
The commission has also ordered the
railway to install an annunciator at
the ROslyn crossing to aid the watch
man there in detecting arrival of trains.
The commissions order is in the form
of an Endorsement of the report of John
=. Dohcney. chief Of the accident bu
reau, which follows:
~ have made an inspection of some
Of the crossings at grade on the line
of the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way in the vicinity of Philadelphia, and
as a result make the following recon-
mendations:
"Oreland Crossing-The protection at
this crossing is now supplied by an
alarm bell and there should be addi-
tional protection by the assignment of
a watchman While normally there is
a good view of approaching trains, the
highway is crossed by a double track
aud trains moving in opposite direc-
tions are likely to create conditions that
are made misleading by the ringing of
n bell.
"Roslyn Crossing-The assignment to
this place of n day and night watch
man. This crossing is located on the
Northeast Penn branch and although
the lie is of single track construction,
the character and extent of the high
way traffic justify protection during
the full twenty four hour period. The
railroad at this point is crossed by the
Germantown and Willow Grove turn
pike and by the Susquehanna road. On
September 20, from 6 a. m. to 9 p. m. q,
the traffic consisted of $50 pedestrians.
615 automobiles, forty five motorcycles,
fifty bicycles and seventy six teams.
From 6 p. m. to 6 n. m. the traffic
was 175 pedestrians. 245 automobiles,
ten motorcycles, forty five bicycles and
ninety teams. Records of the travel
taken in September 80 and on October 1
substantially are in keeping with these
figures. In connection with the pro
posed protection, / suggest that an an
nunciator be provided to notify the
watchman of approaching trains"

About 260 students who have returned

Getting Rid OF The Mosquito

Mosquitoes are mans inveterate
tormentors and foes. AT the sea-
side, on the undrained prairies of
the West and Northwest, in the
far North, by woodland pool and
mountain meadow these blood
thirty brigands in countless my
riads waylay the individual on
business or pleasure bent.
SWamps, ponds, and marshes,
however, are not the only places
which breed mosquitoes. A little
rain water in an old tin can or
undrained roof gutter, if neglect
ed, will supply mosquitoes for
town or city neighborhood, spread
ing discomfort, causing insomnia,
and tempting to profanity.
If mosquitoes were merely
bothersime plague, there would be
ample justification for unrelenting
warfare against them, but when it
is considered that several species
scattered over the United States
disseminate malaria, rendering
many regions of great fertility al
most uninhabitable, and that one
kind of mosquito found in the
South conveys yellow fever, no
argument for fighting them is
, necessary.
Farmers Bulletin 444 of the
United States Department of Ag-
riculture, entitled Remedies and
, Preventives Against Mosquitoes"
which was prepared by DR.. L. O.
\ Howard, Chief of the Bureau of
Entomology, was first issued in
t 1911, but it has been reprinted
y recently and is available for free
distribution to persons and or
ganizations interested in mosquito
control or eradication. In it art
s discussed the Importance of anti
u mosquito work, protection from
e bites, smudges and fumigants, ap
: paratus for catching adult mosqui
; toes, remedies for mosquito bites
+ abolition of breeding places, drain
e age measures, destruction 0
'e larvae by destruction of breeding
places, the practical use of natura
- enemies of mosquitoes, and deter
- rent trees and plants.

Coming Home" Soldiers
Most Worthwhile Experience

"What experience in the war do
you count most worth while?"
asked the inquisitive lady of the
returned soldier.
Coming home, ma'am," was the
prompt reply.
No one who has been to Hoboken
and seen the long lines of khaki
pour off the great, gray troopships
can ever forget the sight. What
shouts and whoops of joy! Every
boy of them can hardly contain his
happiness, for somewhere in the
length and breadth of America he
knows that home os waiting for
him-a home little changed by the
war, where he can hang up his
khaki in the closet and forget the
filth and devastation and horror of
battlefelds in the peace of home
comforts.
But how different is the home
coming of troops in other lands !!
Many of them are returning from
the battlefelds of the world war
to find anarchy and more fighting
|. at home. And many, many are re-
turning home only to find deserted,
charred ruins to greet them or
a starving, sick family living in a
cellar hole of what was once their
t home.
!, Who is to help these people
{ give them food and clothing and
: shelter until they can pick up the
: broken threads of their lives and
$ stand on their own feet?
( Of all countries America is in
: the best position, both economical
, lv and financially, to give this re-
r lief. It is the pride of every Am
erican man to know how prompt
!. America was to accept this ire
, mendous responsibility. Hardly
q had the ink of the Germans sign
v ing the armistice dried when the
i American Relief Administration
e organized and directed by Herber1
! Hoover, was at work in the great
= humanitarian task of saving tht
