City Marshal McKen-

Warming to Drivers

The attention of alls automobile
drivers in Augusta is directed by City
Marshal James G. Mckenney to the
city speed regulations. Automobiles
shall not be driven at a rate of speed
exceeding Is miles an hour within
the city limits, and on the Kennebec
bridge 10 miles an hour is the limit.
Although at each end of the bridge
there is a speed sign, many automo-
bilists disregard them and drive fast
across the bridge in order to get a
run for Cony hill. The policemen
have been instructed to keep sharp
watch for any offenders. City Mar
shall McKenney calls attention also
to the fact that drivers on approach
ing the junction of Bridge and Wa
ter streets should sound the auto
horns and signal to the traffic Off
Ger the direction in which they in
tend to go. Then before proceed
ing, they should wait for the traffic
officers signal to go ahead. A little
cooperation on the part of the auto
drivers will greatly cut down the
chances for accidents.
