WHEN TRAGEDY STALKS

Thoughtlessness on the part of
some one at sometime has been the
cause of many an accident. It will
probably be the case of some one
getting badly mangled or KILLED be-
fore there is an ordinance passed to
prevent cars parking in front of the
Bever-Lee Theatre.
At the present date there are cars
from all over the county that park
in front Of the theatre at Beverly
and with the result of leaving space
in the center for one car to pass
through and many drivers who don't
think pass through from both Lau-
rel and Cooper streets at the same
time thinking they can beat the
other fellow to it which might re-
suit in serious accident.
Another item of interest, have you
ever stopped to think how much it
would hamper the fire department
IF fire broke out while show was
in progress? The cars parked would
naturally result in crowd forming
in front Of the theatre, the fireman
have apparatus and have hose to get
through all in AN If it were a serious
fire there would be panic and to
avert this why not prohibit park
ing on the South side of Warren
street between Laurel and Cooper.
/ When tragedy stalks the principals
never think and there's the pity.
Countless victims fill graves all too
soon because some one failed to
think.
