DRIVERS |NJURE
RAILROAD Gates
Motorists Begin to Realize There
ls More Room Behind a
Train Than in Front.

The grent volume Of propaganda
directed at the evils OF carelessness
when RAILROAD Crossing-Stop.
Look, Listen" sign looms up has
brought most motorists to realization
that there Is more room behind a train
than before it. 1t Is with something
Of shock then that one reads re-
port of the Chicago safety council
showing that 27 per cent of the motor
lists who approach railway crossings
carelessly are SO blindly impatient and
foolhardy that they damage the cross
ing protection equipment provided in
an effort to make the dangerous spots
foolproof.
Drivers in Haste.
Railroad crossing watchmen of 16
roads In and about Chicago last year
reported 3G7 cases of careless driving
at their crossings to the safety council.
OF these reports 107. or 27 per cent,
indicate that the drivers were in such
haste to get over the tracks-to beat
the train to It," that they damaged the
equipment provided to keep the cross
ingS safe. Disregarding warning bells
and the whistles of the watchmen,
many Of them kept going even after
the crossing gates had started to de
scend. 1t is this type of driver that
causes the safety engineer to tear his
hair and have moment of terrible
doubt as to whether trying to save life
IL worth while.
Fifty Per Cent In Some Cases.
In some cases the number of In
stances in which the gates were dam
aged amounts to more than so per
cent The Chicago and Western
Indiana reported 30 cases, of which II
resulted in damaged equipment, indi-
eating that a driver tried to beat the
gates. OF 60 cases reported by the
Illinois Central, 35 showed damaged
gates. Eight out of the - reported
by the North Shore Electric line were
damaged gates"
The work of the safety council has
done much to spread the careful
crossing" idea effectively. Railroad
gatemen have been instructed by their
officials to note the license number of
any car driven carelessly at their
crossings. These reports go to the
safety council, which sends Il letter to
the car owner calling attention to his
carelessness and asking for co-opera'
ton In reducing the number of rail
way crossing accidents and in promot-
ing motor safety in general. The care
less crossing evil is thus attacked at
its source.

A packed house greeted the first

ing artist. The operetta was aug
mented by an attractive chorus made
up of other glee club members.
The production was divided into
two acts and consisted OF pleas

that numbered nearly 80. The high
school orchestra gave short con-
cert preceding the performance and
between acts. Magdalene Schaefer
