PROTECTION OF GRADE
CROSSINGS BY SIGNS
Pennsylvania Railroad Taking
Steps for New Safeguards TO
Highway Travel

Grade crossings on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, in the States Of Pennsylvania
and New York, are soon 10 be safcglarded
with protective warning signs giving
advance notice Of approach to the cross
ines. The work of installation will start
Mt once and will be extended To other
States. where preliminary warnings are
not now in use, as soon as the necessary
approval can be obtained from ie State
regulative authorities The board of
Public Utility Commissioners Of New
Jersey has taken up the application and
approval for that Commonw ealth % now
pending APPROVAL viii also be requested
in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and
elsewhere
The new form of signal is devised
especially to deal with the problem of
inducing motorists 10 run ut reasonable
speed, and with their cars under full
control, when nearing railroad crossings.
This. il In expected, will be accomplished
by the new approach signs, giving
warning Of crossings ahead in ample time
to reduce 10 safe speed
The design which will be used ~ a
standard adopted for such purposes by the
American Railway Association and con
eista of a metal disk 81 inches IN diameter,
having black rim and divided into four
quarters by black cross on white
ground The two upper quarters bear
the letters ar r. The sign will be
mounted on post Of suitable height
The disk resembles that dcyised by the
American Railway Association as the
standard Stop hand signal for watch
men at grade crossings where the volume
of traffic requires such form Of protection
The new approach signs will be
placed. as nearly rs practicable. 800 feet
from the crossings IN both directions, and
will bn located on the vehicle, or night
hand side Of the highway. The exact point
of location will bc determined in each
caee with q view 10 giving the greatest
visibility and prominence.
Ultimately. il is intended by the Arncr-
ran Railway Association to extend tho use
of the approach signals, N uniform
standard style, 10 ell parts of the country
and all railroads With tho approaching
return Of the railroads to private operation,
If is now proposed 20 push the plan to
execution IN every State When that i
accomplished. automobiIsts in MI parts
Of the country will receive invariably
the same warning Of approach to 2 rail
road crossing, with resulting great adyan-
tage from the viewpoint nf safety and
incentive TO proper care,

My image, perfect, with no flaw,
Safely stored within my heart
Lies her image, my sweetheart,
My mother had such lovely HAIR,
Combed around with such an air
OF tender care. soft and brown,
C0Ilcd around her like crown,
Twisted round with dainty touch,
Not too little nor too much
My mother had a perfect mouth,
Warm as breezes from the south,
Like the Joyous birds Of sp.ing
The songs she loved to sing,
ID -opped against her loving breast
My head found a perfect rest.
My mother had a charming face,
CiTcled round the neck with lace,
The s0ftest checks, the dalntipst ear
Listening to my hopes and fears.
Pearly teeth Is white rs milk,
Lips with kisses soft rs silk.
My mother had the sweetest chm,
With little dImplcs dotted in,
Her eyes SO soft and mild
Gazing tenderiy at her child,
She was my dear, my friend,
VIC chummed until the very end
This lady has my mother eyes.
Ihat lady has my mothers haIr.
Tins lady has my mother mouth,
That lady has my mother face,
This lady has my mothers elm
Would loving all be mortal SIM
