During it's existence the council sue

courses. 1t Is notable fact that with
but one or two exceptions. none Of the
graduates Of the councils safety school
has been apprehended for the violation
Of traffic rules.
For over a year the council has
been issuing a regular monthly safety
bulletin, and for the past few months
a regular monthly fire prevention bull

hands Of every school teacher in

work. Safety has now been given a

On account Of the lack of sufficient
moral and financial support on the
part of the commercial and civic in
terests of the nations capital. the
executive committee Of the Wash
ington Safety Council has voted to
discontinue the work of the organi-
cation. notwithstanding the fact that
similar activities are being success
fully financed and conducted in more
than fifty of the large cities Of the
country. a subsequent meeting OF
the committee will be held Tuesday,
July s, to either reconsider the vote
steps to dissolve the council. which
is an incorporate body.
During 1923. which was the first
year of the councils activities, sixty
less persons met accidental death
than during the preceding year. not
counting the number killed in the
Knickerbocko- Theater disaster,
which occurred in 1922. During the

The white lines which have been

bill, which failed in its entirety due
TO the filibuster the last night in

For eighteen months the Washington

direct message of safety constantly

in this activity, it has now spread to

GLOW NV Husband Has Helped Me"

"How My Husband Has Helped Me-"
TNIMOTHY COLE, the world famous
wood engraver, came to this coun-
try from London, England, when
he was five years old. The Chicago fire
of 1871 left him penniless. He managed
to make his way to New York, where
he secured employment on the Century
Magazine. In few years his remark
able work had attracted the WORLDWIDE
attention it still commands.
Mr.. Cole has been married nearly
fifty years. It is Mrs. Cole who tells
me the story of how her husband mas
helped her. I saw Mrs. Cole in her
charming little cottage in Poughkeepsle.
"My husband has helped me to APP
preciate his art as well as the art OF
the Old Masters. 1 did not know any
thing about art before / married him.
In 1883 we went to Europe so that Mr.:
Cole could engraye the Old Masters and
he spent nearly thirty years on this
work. His thorough enjoyment of this
special work gave me a keener ap-
probation. 80,

he did it through me, but, OF course,
that is his fine way of paying me a

thoughtful man and helps me con-
