VIRGINIA'S CROSSING LAW.

The railroads of Georgia are very
anxious to have the legislature adopt
an act relative to grade crossings
something like that employed in Vir-
ginia. This act was approved last
March and it is said to be both effeo
tive and satisfactory to drivers and
the railroads. The law provides that
except in cities and incorporated
towns and villages of 900 inhabitants
or more, it is the duty of every person
driving any vehicle on "a public high
way in approaching place where a
railway crosses such highway a.
grade, to stop before passing
over such crossing at distance of
not less than ten feet no more than
one hundred feet from the nearest
rail.
The AIT does not apply to railroads
used OILY by purely local trains.
The railroads are very amply cared
for in the Virginia act They retain
all the protecting powers of the act S
in operation before the adoption OF
the new law.
In order that auto drivers, pedes
TRANS and others may know whether
railroad track constitutes part OF
s
the main line the ailroads are frequir
led tespIaqs signs attcrassirttg OF 4suBF

The Virginia law is all right, ap
parently, as far as it goes. But il

pubic highway is rebuilt of permas

plan adopted by which it shall go

We are going right along in Geor-

crossings but doing nothing to elm

REHABILITATION OF ST. SIMON.

Every indication points unerringly
to the prompt construction of the st.
I Simon highway and bridges, the com
| pletion of which is forecasted in time
! for the opening of the next summer
J season at that resort. The bill author
izing the issuance of bonds by the CITY
of Brunswick, wnich have already
been assured at the election held sew
eral months ago when the county
bond issue was passed by an almost
unanimous majority. There will be
no opposition to the passage of the
measure in the legislature. both Rep
resentatfve Mann and Senator Akin
being strongly in favor of the propos-
ed bond issue. Then there is no rea-
son for any delay in the matter. as
it is generally conceded that the city
o. Brunswick is actually rearing to
go. as it We're.
Many times, again and again, have
the benefits to accrue from the con
Struction of the st. Simon highway
been pointed out. Volumes have been
written and the result is known to ev-
cry man, woman and child in this sec
ton as well as in other portions of
the state. And it might be said in
passing that Brunswick and Glvnn
county are not the sole sponsors of |
this movement. Hundreds of other |
cities and counties are vitally inter |
ested in the project And that is not |
all. They are going there to invest in !.
homes and snail farms.
And in this connection the fact |
should not be lost sight of that the |
fertility of the soil on St Simon can
not be surpassed anywhere in the
state. 1t is something more than a
recreation ground for those in quest /
OF annual outings There are thou
sands of acres of land that are. or
have been, under cultivation. and the
haryests have been both prolific and
profitable.
In the ante-bellum days the finest
quality Of sea island cotton produced
on the South Atlantic coast was
grown on st. Simon. Ii was the home
Of some OF the first settlers of this sec
ton of the state. and was marked by
numerous colonial mansions of those |
days. The broad a, as were produc-
tive of cereals and fruits and the isl
and was vreitable paradise And it |
is coming back soon. back to the days |
OF its former prestige and glory for
it is to be made accessible to people
OF the entire state and they will not /
tary in taking up, many Of them, their
abode there
St, Simon is coming back to her
own. u

GEORGE Poe INJURED
IN COLLISION WITH CAR

George Poe, who has for years de-
livered express in the city for the
Great Northern Express company,
sustained a scalp wound and was con-
siderably bruised about the head and
body Saturday, just after noon when
his delivery wagon was struck by the
Dodge delivery car of Oberg Broth
ers, driven by John Oberg. The acci-
dent occurred on Main street, just
south of First.
According to eye witnesses, Mr.. Poe
was driving up Main street, on the
right side, just back of an automobile,
also going north on Main. Mr.. Oberg
was coming up First street from the
sCarithers hospital, apparently in
tending to go on up First, but swung
into Main, on the left side of the
street, missing the car going north,
but striking Mr.. POe's wagon. Mr.
eOberg had applied the brakes and was
not going fast when the two vehicles
came together. The shock however,
was sufficient to knock Mr. Poe from
his seat.
Mr.. Oberg, when seen by a Star
Mirror representative, said that he
had intended going east on First to
Washington, to go to the Oberg store,
but saw the car coming north on
Main, just at the street intersection,
and in order to make sure of missing
it, swung south on Main, not seeing
the Poe wagon until it was too late
to avoid a collision.
Mr.. Poe, who is more than 70 years
of age, was taken to his home and
physician called. 1t was found that
no bones were broken and, so far as
could be determined, the old gentle
man was not seriously injured.
Mr.. Oberg expressed himself as
deeply regretting the accident, but
said that under the conditions it was
unavoidable.
