safety first instruction given in
every public school in Texas" said
constable L \. Davis. L believe
that teaching children the dangers
Of carelessly crossing the street. On
playing IN the street. in hopping
trains and the like. should be made
a part OF their early education. The
reason why so many children are
killed is because they do not realize
the dangers they encounter when
they run hither and thither across
the street. dodge by people on
bicycles. jay walk, and hop street
cars and trains. A little instruction
in the school room would save the
lives Of many. A little safety first
teaching when a child IS growing up
would stay with him all the days OF
his life. a person only has 10 read

accounts OF children being hurt. and
