SAFETY FIRST FOR CHILDREN
Many Requirements Furnish Variety
Of Topics for Essays and Oral
Discussion.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The many requirements for safety
wiz furnish a variety of topics for
school chiidren's essays and oral dis
cussion. The dangers of railroad
crossings al grade, the economic Jus
tification for abolishing them. the i'm
p%ortance of an uno1structed view up
and down the track as a vehicle
approaches, and the disadvantage of
sharp turns, etc., are suggestive
subjects. Similarly there might also
be mentioned the questions raised by
street intersections and turns. In
every town there are many crossings
where the autcist's view is unnec-
essarily limited by fences, %shrubbery,
or buildings; or where sharp curves
with limited visibility invite serious
accidents. G~uideposts. markers. and
other signs for the most efficient guild
ance of traffic through thickly settled
communities also are part OF the
bigger and more inclusive topics of
the economic Importance of safety and
suidance-the actual money value of
human life and of accident prevention.
Another question, in solving which
the engineer and economist will need
the help of enlightened public opinion
(and this enlightenment should start
in the public schools), is that of the
relation of the public highways to
railroads and canals. The advantage
Of long hauls by rail and short hauls
by motor truck; feeding into main
terminal points by radiating systems
%portation burden by parallel systems
Of water, rail, and road transporta-
ton, are some Of the subdivisions Of
this general heading.
This listing of topics is not intended
to be complete or exact, but merely
struction could best be utilized when
construction work is In progress in
the ~vie;nity of a school. Many Of the
othery topics may be studied from
maps, IF which the students might be
|~required to make tracings or free-hand
sketches showing the particular
features for which emphasis Is desired,
or regarding which the exercise is
being written. State highway depart
ments often feel the need Of a better

of road construction. and their officials

manner. Looking ahead. IL is easy to

CHAPTER Ui-continued.

"Good evening. Cranston." he said
pleasantly.
CranstOn was also upon his feet the
same instant. His instincts were en-
tirely true. He knew If he leaped for
his rifle, Dan would be upon his back
In an instant, and he would have no
chance TO use it. The rifle was now
out of the running, as they were at
about equal distances from it, and
neither would have time to swing or
aim it.
Dams sudden appearance had been
so utterly unlocked for, that for a mo-
ment Cranston could find no answer.
His eyes moved to the rifle. then to
his belt where hung his hunting knife,
that still lay on the pallet. "Good
evening. Failing" he replied. trying
his hardest to fall into hat strange
spirit of nonchaIance with which
brave men have so often met their adj
versaries, and which Dan had now.
I'm surprised to see you here. What

"And ! suppose you mean to fight

rev up in a smile, but there was no
smile in the ton Of his words.

he stepped nearer. Not only for
that, Cranston. We're face to face at

pocket. But her eyes lighted, and she

She was wholly unable to gain on
the fire. Only by dint Of the most
heart-breaking toll was she able to Sc
cure any dry fuel for it at all. Every
length Of wood she cut had to be
scraped Of bark. and half the time the
fire was only a sickly column Of white
smoke. 1t became increasingly diff
cult to swing the ak. The trail was
almost at its end.
The aftef-midnight hours drew one
by one across the face of the wilder
ness, and she thought that the deep
ening cold presaged dawn. Her fin
gers were numb.
Once more she went to one of the
saplings, but she stumbled and almost
went to her face at the first blow. 1t
was the instant that her gray watch
ers had been waiting for. The wolf
that stood nearest leaped-a gray
streak out Of the shadow-and every
wolf in the pack shot forward with a
yell. 1t vas a short, expectant cry !;
but it chopped off short. For with a
half-sob, and seemingly without men,

fired.

most difficult pistol targets that can be
imagined. 1t bordered on the miracu-

lous that she did not miss him alto
gether. Her nerve were torn. their
control over her muscles largely gone.
Yet the bullet coursed down through
the lungs, inficting a mortal wound.
The wolf had leaped for her throat:
but he fell short. She staggered from
a blow, and she heard a curious sound
in the region of her hip. But she
didn't know that the fangs had gone
home in her soft flesh. The wolf
rolled on the ground and If her pistol
had possessed the shocking power OF
a rifle, he would have never got up
again. AS it was, he shrieked once,
then sped off in the darkness to die.
Five or six of the nearest wolves,
catching the smell Of his blood, bayed
and sped after him.
But the remainder Of the great pack

came stealing across the nov to-
ward her. White fangs had gone
home; and a new madness was in the
air.
Straining into the silence, a perfect
IL straight line between Cranston's
camp and Snowbird's, Dan Failing
came mushing across the snow. His
sense of direction had never been
obliged to stand such a test as this
before. Snowbird's fire was a single
dot on a vast plateau; yet he had gone
straight toward it.

| While in Hazelton last week the
Record was informed that Messrs.
Roy Yeater and Ben Matthews had
been around town sounding out the
business men on putting money in
another newspaper corporation. Yea
ter's experience with the Free Press
proposition seems not to have de-
TERED him from trying again, in the
hope of wiggling out of part of the
old responsibility.
The general understanding seemed
to be that the business men of Hazel
ton were to finance the proposition,
and that the old Free Press plant
would be moved back to Hazelton, ana
Stewart with it. A new man would
then be secured to run the Linton
end of the proposition.
The feature most often commented
upon by those approached is that Yea
ter was the most active in depriving
Hazelton Of newspaper, and was
now around asking them to decorate
the mahogany to secure such sheet
as Yeater and Matthews would put
up.
The plan failed to meet with any
success whatever. e.
