WANT WATCHMAN
AT THIS CROSSING

In view OF the fact that two acci-
dents Of very serious nature have oc-
CURED at the Philadelphia and Read 'ng
railroad crossing, on the Baltimore
turnpike, between Lancaster pike and
the Kennett pike, residents who
traverse that road are going TO make
an appeal TO the railroad company to
install watchman at the crossing. The
last accident happened the other day
when C. p. Mearn's car was smashed
and carried down the tracks for about
20 feet, but luckily Mr.. Hearn was not
hurt, as he jumped out OF his machine.
About two years ago three persons
were killed al the crossing while tour
ing from Florida. and their car was
smashed. View Of the railroad tracks Is
shut off from both directions. There
is a signal bell at the crossing, but IL is
next to impossible for anyone driving
car to hear the bell until he is close
10 the tracks.

flrst chance to purchase. and on easy

the Gardens is put at S4,s00000. One
