ing hours are from daylight to
dark.
During the hunting season, the
sun rises shortly before 6 a. m.
and sets shortly after 6 p. N.
and since it is daylight about
a half-hour before sunrise and
until a half-hour after sunset,
hunters will be able to enjoy
several hours hunting without
cutting into normal working
hours.
H. A. Rider, chief of the Wild
life Division of the Ohio Depart
ment of Natural Resources, said
today that hunting license sales,
together with information reach
ing the Columbus office from
game protectors throughout the
state, indicate that the number
of hunters who will take to the
woods may exceed any previous
year.

Hunters were urged this week
to use caution in the woods by
wearing bright red caps o! al
least a strip of red cloth seWed

School Starts;
Give Kids Brake

Local motorists were reminded
today by Sheriff Walter T. Gal
loway that it is back-to-school
time-time to watch out for child
rem by being particularly care
full about driving in school and
residential neighborhoods.
Eleven percent of the traffic
deaths in Ohio during l948, it is
pointed out, were children un-
der Is years of age.
"At any moment" Sheriff Gal
loway said, "a child may dart
from the curb into the path of
an automobile. In his or her care
free way the child isn't thinking
about safety.
eff the children won't think
for themselves, let's do their
thinking for them. If you drive a
car, have a thought for your own
childhood and have thought for
the safety of today's children
Motorists were urged to observe
these rules:
1. Drive with extra care when
ever you see children, in school
zones and in residential districts
where children may be playing.
2. Keep clear of bicycles.
8. Watch out for youngsters or
tricycles, roller skates, scotters
and coaster wagons.
4. Watch out for children-givt
them a brake!
