8 Much has been satd about what Is

question that concerns all those that

danger Of serious accident resulting
from careless driving. as well as
careless skating.
The question Of protection seems
to be the great concern. and In the
final analysis the boy OF the day has
but little consideration in the matter.
For fun. physical development and
outdoor life every boy loves any kind
Of sport. The fall brings skates and
the skater.
If any city wants to see its youth

give its youth all possible considers

it how can any wise citizen call 1t
