Marked Roads.
CGardner News.

One of the best schemes ever devised
to obviate automobile accidents, is the
idea of painting a stripe along the cen
ter line of the highway when it is twist
ing around curves Many accidents oc-
cur on these road turns. Drivers VIII
tear around these crooks at high rate
of speed without regard to the center
line. Many try to pass cars on such
curves and come to grief by getting over
on the left side at the same time that
another car is coming.
These reckless ways are not premedl-
tated, and people who do such things
would condemn them if they saw other
people indulging in the same habits
The stripe painted down the center of
a road recalls an impatient driver to his
common sense, and reminds him of the
peril of his needless ways. 1t is
powerful suggestion that he must keep
where he belongs.
