The Block Signals
Are Working-

In some respects, human experience
is like railroading.
Every moment Of the business and
social day the block signals are giving
right of way to keenness and alertness
while the slow and the heavy must
wait on the sidetrack for their chance
to move forward.
The ability to Ego through" and to
"get there" dependsmuch on the poise of
body, brain and nerves that comes with
correct diet and proper nOurishment.
That's why so many choose Grape.
Nuts for breakfast and lunch. Served
with cream or milk it is completely
nOurishing, partly pre-digested, and it
supplies the vital mineral salts SO
necessary to full nutrition.
Grape-Nuts has rich, delightful
flavor, is ready to serve on the instant
and is distinctly the food for mental
and physical alertness and speed. At
all grOcers.

Poor Light Blamed
For Many Night
Accidents

Good lighting is an aid to acct
dent prevention, it is shown by in
vestigations Of the United States
Government and Of insurance
bodies.
Studies made for the United
States Census Bureau states that
approximately $4,000 persona are
accidentally killed in this country
every year and reveal the fact that
accidents are moro numerous ut
night than in the daylight. A Gov
eminent report on iron and steel
industries shows that at night the
accidents In the mechanical depart
ment were 1888 per cent greater
than in the day, while in the yards
they were 1878 per cent greater.
The duties Of the men at night
did not differ sufficiently from
those Of the daytime to account for
the variation, and the conclusion
drawn was that the difference in
lighting was responsible.
A recent investigation made by
one Of the insurance companies
shows that Of 95, 900 cases studies,
the majorityoccurred during the
winter months, when the days were
short and dark. Good street light
ing and good industrial lighting is
by no means so general as it should
be. 1t is reasonable to suppose
that really adequate illumination
would help materially TO reduce
the number Of serious accidents.
