DEAR DRIVER

Dear Driver"
Today my daughter, who is seven
years old, started to school as usual.
She wore a dark blue dress with a
white collar She had on black shoes
and wore blue gloves. Her cocker
spaniel, whose name is "Scoot," sat
on the front porch and whined his
canine belief in the folly of educa-
tion as she waved goodbye and start
ed off to the halls of learning.
Tonight we talked about school. She
told me about the girl who sits in
front of her-the girl with the yellow
curls-and the boy across the aisle
who makes funny faces. She told me
about her teacher who has eyes in
the back of her head-and about the
big girl who doesn't believe in Santa
Claus. We talked about lot of things
- tremendously vital, unimportant
things-and then we studied spelling,
reading, and northumberland then to
bed. She's back there now-back in
the nursery - sound asleep - with
princess Elizabeth" Chats a dolD
cuddled in her right arm. You guys
wouldn't hurt her, would you? You
see, Pm her daddy. When her doll is
broken or her finger cut, or her head
gets bumped, can fix that--but when
she starts to school, when she walks
across the street, then she's in your
hands.
She's a nice kid-she can run like
deer and darts about like a chip
munll. She likes to ride horses and
swim and hike with me on Sunday
afternoons. But | can't be with her
all the time have to work to pay
for her clothes and education. So
please help me to look out for her.
Please drive carefully-please drive
slowly past the schools and in the in
tersectons-and please remember that
children run from behind parked cars.
Please don't run over my little girl
