Stop-Look-Listen

Ever since most of us can re- member, the above sign has been displayed at railroad crossings. Laws in most states require 1t. They have been the means of pre- venting innumerable accidents and the loss of many lives. But, even in the old horse and buggy days, many lives were noedlessly sacri- feed by trying to beat the train over the crossing.
 The advent of the automobile has not changed human nature. The temptation to beat the train on aocont of the sense of security in automobile power and speed has been intensified. Crossing acci- dents, except where safety devices have been installed, have increased at an alarming rate.
 It is difficult to correctly judge the speed of an oncoming train Do not take chances-Make sure that the margin of safety is greatly on your side-In approaching a crossing, especially where the track is elevated above the grade of the highway, slow down, stop, look, lis ten and shift into intermediate gear. DJ SO dOlh6 ych iiNi Nt'S J NNA power, and ability to accelerate speed if necessary and minimize danger of stalling your motor.
 Be careful. but remember that crossings are but one of thousands of situations which require caution, quick thinking and proper execu- ton, the lack of which results in only 2,700 persons killed or seri- ously injured every day of the year. Be prudent--Apply for a special Travel and Pedestrian Accident policy issued by the North Ameri- can Accident Insurance company.
 Any subscriber, or dependent members of a subscribers family, between the age of 15 and 6S. may secure travel and pedestrian acci- dent policy paying downward from $10.000 for travel, $1,000 for auto and pedestrian death indemnities, large specific amounts for loss of arms. legs, eyes, etc, and 5000 weekly indemnity for total disabil- ity resulting from accidents as specified in the policy, which Is at tho rate of $43.33 per month--all this at cost of less than one-third of q cent per day.
 Write or phone the insurance department of the Waterbry Democrat for full and complete Information.

Entertainments For
 Irish Holiday Many
St Paricks Day to Be Observed Here Most FittngIy; Various Organizations Plan Gala AII-Day Programs

St. Patrick's Day, which oc. CUTS q week from today, will be ob- served in Waterbury in fitting manner.
 Various organizations have al- ready practically completed plans . for special entertainments and dances and services in honor of the patron saint of Ireland will be con- ducted in the Catholic churches of the city.
 The entertainments scheduled will feature Irish songs, stories and l. dances in their programs and will, no doubt, bring back happy mem ories to natives of Erin and evoke many emotions in the hearts of descendants of the emigrants from the Green Isle.
 Monsignor Slocum branch, Anc- lent order of Hibernians, has arr ranged for it's annual observance. The committee in charge includes Michael Wallace, chairman Timo- thy Morgan, superintendent of the City Hall, and James Hackett, Peter Griffin, president of the board of aldermen, who is president of Monsignor Slocum branch and state treasurer of the Ancient order of Hibernians, sttaed today that the celebration this year will be equal to any held in the past.
 The Elks will present a special St. Patriek's program at the frat ernity's hall on West Main street. The celebration will be in the form of a dinner dance. The Eagles are also arranging special program.
 The two local divisions of the Ladies' auxiliary of the Ancient Order of Hibernians will join with the Slocum branch in making the successful and fitting one.
 Clan-Na- Gael and the l. II. A. club will also present program befitting the occasion it is expected, f, and so will kevin Barry council of recognition of the Irish Republic.
 Many other local organizations, not necessarily made up entirely of Irish members, are also arrang- ing special celebrations. The local hotels and inns in and near Water bury already report reservations for the night.
 Radio programs next Saturday night will be given over to a great extent to the playing of Irish airs and the recounting of Irish folk lore. All in all, the local observance of St. Patrick's Day promises to be on a par with any celebration in past years. Waterbury is considered an Irish city, hence the great &C., tivities now on in preparation for the observance of the day.
 As in past years thousands of Irish residents and descendants of Irish parents will wear a "bit of green" next Saturday. It is ex- pected that during the coming week many packages from Ireland will arrive in the local post office bearing wisps of shamrock.
 Local stationary stores were ex- peQted during the week to have a display of post cards, streamers, pictures and so forth in honor of the patron saint of Ireland.

 Editor of The Congregationalist
 The teaching of Jesus was large Iy in terms of illustration. Much of W hat he had to proclaim was too high and deep for people to under stand, if he had sought to express it to them in language remote from life and daily experiences; so he in- terpreted the high teaching in lan- guage and in pictures that his readers might better understand.
 It is true that. even with the implication of his teaching, those who heard him did not always un- derstand, and they came asking to have the meaning of the parables explained to them. In some in- stances Jesus gave a detailed ex- planation as for instance of the parable of the sower and the seed, and we have this explanation along with the parable.
