BACKED BY FAIR

paper to Be Given Impetus
in Motion Pictures.

The strenuous campaign just
launched by the News-Times offer
ing readers protection in case OF &C
cident, Will be given further impetus
~ the South Embellishments fair
which opens az Springbrook Park
Tuesday. September 13. for run Of
Ave days.
Through the efforts OF John Grief.
head OF the Yellow Taxicab and
Transfer Co. and a member OF the
National Safety Council, a moving
picture show Will be given daily at
the fair for the purpose OF educat-
Ing people in the avoidance OF fatal
accidents.
According to Mr.. Grief the film
Is intensely interesting and was made
at tremendous cost by the National
Council. The ideas are brought out
IN a novel and catchy manner so
that people Of all classes may enjoy
the fln and at the same time learn
the great lesson OF carefulness. It
is the theory Of the Safety Council
that a big majority OF accidents re-
sulting in loss OF life or limb are
due 70 carelessness on the part Of
either automobile drivers or pedes-
TRANS. In order 10 curb such acct
dents, the film is being shown at the
big fairs throughout the country and
officials of the Interstate feel proud
Of the fact that South Bend was in
cluded. The picture Will be shown
every day in a spacious tent, provid-
ed with comfortable seats, and there
will be no admission.
