TALK BASEBALL

Onicials of the New Castle County

reorganize for the new season. Sew
eral OF the managers have already
begun plans for next season and

Avert Grade Crossing Accidents Says Chairman Hill Dan
ger Increasing as Number of Automobiles Increases
Each Year, Government Reports Emphasize

pen if automobile or other drivers
were careful at grade crossings.
RAILROAD employees and railroad
companies are making rapid progress
in the adoption of safety precautions
and safety appliances in shops and
yards and on the line. But safety

operation of the public"
Great Northern trains carried &c.
OBS, ,054 passengers, an average of IS
miles each, without single passen-
ger being killed during the last five
years. L arge expenditures. are be-
ing made and will be continued to
perpetuate this record and to reduce
accidents to the minimum and fur
ther protect the public but cannot be
wholly successful without the CO.
operation of the public generally, Off
cials pointed out.
Records of the United States gov
ernment show that the number of au-
tomobiles registered 10 years ago was
4,9S3,34O and in 1922 was 1925, ,375.
Reports of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, which show that the
1922 grade crossing accidents exceed
ed those of 1921 by 6.2 per cent, en-
phasize that the rapid increase in the
number of motor vehicles adds enor-
mously each year to the danger of
accident through carelessness of driv-
ers and pedestrians. These reports
show that occupants of automobiles
comprised So per cent of all persons
involved in grade crossing accidents
in 1917 and that this ratio had in
creased to 81 Per cent in 1922.

St. Paul, Nov.-Thousands of lives

"Stop, Look and Listen" when ap-
preaching railroad crossing,' Chair
man Louis w. Hill said in comment
ing on an urgent appeal of the Great
Northern Railway for fullest cooper
alton of the public in the daily efforts
being made to assure maximum safe
ty for employees and patrons of the
transcontinental system and for the
public generally.
"Be careful at grade crossings"
urges Chairman Hill. "Nearly every
day a large loss of life through pre-
ventable accidents is reported and
thousands of persons who are not
killed are manned and crippled.
Carelessness in crossing railroad
tracks was responsible for more of
these accidents than any other one
cause. A train cannot turn out for
the motorist or pedestrian but must
cross the highways at such speed as
is necessary to maintain the service
that the people need and demand.
"There always is train COM
ing; it may be nearer than you think.
A track ahead always means danger.
"About eight per cent of all auto
mobile drivers do not stop or look in
either direction before crossing a rail-
road track and in about twenty per
cent of automobile crossing accidents,
the automobile runs into the side of a
train. Such accidents could not hap

AT CROSS ROADS

TROSS roads are dangerous placeA
- In the Great war allied and Ger
man soldiers alike Stunned all points
where roads crossed. When a motor
truck or an ambulance or an ambu-
lance wagon neared such q point, the
driver put on full speed and rushed
past in the direction he had decided to
follow.
There was no hesitating and waver-
ing, backing and filling. This was be-
cause it was just about as dangerous
to stand at cross roads in the combat
zone as it is to stand on q railroad
track. If you stood long enough at
the cross roads q shell would hit you.
II you stood long enough. on railroad
tracks a train would hit you.
The cross roads Of life are just az
dangerous as were the cross roads in
FLANDERS and France.
When you come to a parting Of the
ways, make up your mind quickly
which is the right way to 60. and 60.
Sooner or later you will come to
atuation where you can save yourself
q lot Of trouble by departing from your
usual rule of truthfulness and telling
q Ne.
That is a cross roads.
II you linger at it, wondering which
way to turn, vacillating between the
two courses, the chances are greater
that you will take the wrong road-tha
road Of the lie.
Your first impulse win be to take the
tcourse Of truth. You will know 1t II
khe right road. Don't stand at the
cross roads. Go full speed down tho
route you know IL the right one. Next
time you come to cross roads with
4ths same signs displayed, it Will be
easier to keep right on going.
And IL you select the road Of truth
you will come to fewer puzzling corners
than you will on the road to lies. 1t
will be much easier to stay on the
right road than to get back to 1t.
Sometimes 1t is impossible to get back.
The same thing will be true Of every
road parting which you encounter. 10
finger there will be dangerous. 10
wabble back and forth between the
two routes will mean that you are
liable to be engulfed in disastrous
chain of circumstances before you have
made your move. 1t Is just like the
soldier who stands at the cross roads
until a shell searches him out and Its
explosion destroys him.
The armies shelled all cross roads
at frequent intervals because they
knew that somebody was likely to be
there, either because Of congested
traffic or because Of indecision as to
which way to 60.
Chief among your enemies are your
own weaknesses and habits. They will
deliberately attack you while you are
ct the parting Of the ways.
