Children in the Streets.

Trafilc regulations, renewed warnings
to policemen, careful driying-all these
are essential parts OF the safety CAM
paign that, without any extra fanfare,
should begin at this season OF the year
when children, out of school, are play
ing in the streets or running back and
forth across the streets. But the maio
burden OF responsibility necessarily
rests upon the parents and the children
themselves. Carelessness and thought
lessness lead to the majority of the
tragedies where children are the VIC
Tins. Childish impulse is always hard
TO curb and Q dash after q rolling ball
often becomes y dash to death.
If all parents could take the oc-
casion now TO emphasize, repeatedly
and strongly enough, the dangers Of
trafic and try to associate IN the child's
mind the thought Of accident with the
mere act Of stepping on the curb, q
great deal would be accomplished. The
fact that there is little, If any, effort
of the sort by great numbers Of par
entS is obvious to any one who drives
an automobile. The city-bred child
takes the street and its dangers for
granted. without constant admonition
it becomes needless Of dangers that are
always present.
Maj. Pratt. in his excellent circular
to patrolmen recommending increased
vigilance on their part, urges police
men to take advantage of every
opportunity to warn children playing
in the street of the constant menace
to their lives. And as Maj. Pratt says,
there is q great deal in the manner
in which the warning is delivered.
The policeman, to the child, is an
awesome fellow, who symbolizes all the
terrible things that will overtake the
tranSgressor. A word from him carries
weight and meaning. II he can make
himself a friend and counselor to the
youngsters, he will earn his pay a thou
sand times over. Is.
