A RULE OF SAFETY.
Think of Others a. You Ride and Waik
About Town.

II ID very interesting 20 watch people
in their daily disregard of everybody but
themselves. Men and women walking
along the sidewalk viii suddenly stop
short or turn right around without n
thought Of whether there is somebody
lse with whose progress snch action
might interfere. Automobile drivers will
star, out from the curb without any sort
OF signal and others VIII stop short in
the highway or turn 90 cross street
with no notification.
Similarly, pedestrians viii walk across
n street In city, even SO large "a city a.
Hartford without a look 20 see If any
vehicle is coming along Often an auto
mobile driver will notice some Person
cross the street IN front of his approach
ing car without once turning the head 20
81 If he or she s in danger, Others will
stand in a doorway and block IT without
thought OF any one who happens To want
TO pass through.
This attitude is the cause Of many of
the too numerous accidents. Inattcntion
ia another word for il, but in fact il is
self-absorption. These people do not
think of anybody else The question IL
how 10 make them realize that there are
other people with equal rights with them
serves. 90 i5F rs auiohhobtllslS are cur
cerned, there are pretty stiff regulations
which ar, likely TO be impressed GENERALLY,
but for pedestrians we need lot more
of attention. The policy Of requiring
every one crossing street 10 do so under
policeman's eye is useful II that notion
is sufficiently enforced. it will in time
make a dent in peoples minds and effect
n change in their habits But meanwhile
there Will be lot Of accidents. - Hart
