Accidents Likely and Care Is
Urged on Drivers and
Pedestrians.
COLLISIONS REPORTED

Avenues and streets partially COW
cred with snow and slush are treach-
erous and great is the danger of skid
ding, which carries with it the ever
present possibility of collision with
other machines, street cars and pc
destrians.
In making turns a t the intersection
of streets and in going around the
circles the car should be operated
under full control. traffic officers say.
Exceeding the speed limit under pres
ent street conditions, light snow and

dangers with which the driver of an
automobile has to face.

Too much care cannot be taken by
motorists when there is snow on the
streets, said a traffic policeman to-
day Occasionally serious accidents
occur as result of skidding. and
many narrow escapes are witnessed

An Important
Factor in Cutting
Shoe Expense

"Many months of comfort at little
expense" is the way Charles A.
Pearson of San Diego, California,
sums up his experience with NeoIin
SoIes. Mr.. Pearson had two pairs
of shoes resoied with NeoIin SoIes,
and after wearing them for twenty
months writes, Il will have to get
new shoes some time, but so far as
the soies are concerned, that time
seems as far distant as when they
were new"
This is typical OF the experience
millions are having with NeoIin
Soles. Created by Science to be
durable, flexible and waterproof,
these soles are an important factor
in cutting shoe expense. You can
get them on new shoes for the
whole family, and for re-soIing.
They are made by The Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio,
who also make Wingfoot Heels
