GKADE CROSSINGS The frightful accident at Bellcvue, O., where 19 peo ple were killed when an electric interurban car crashed into a loaded bus, forces us once more to consider the perplexing grade crossing problem. According to stories of eye wit nesses, the driver of the bus used Kt least a fair amount of caution. He stopped his cHr, got out, walked to the cross ing and looked each way to sue that the course was clear before he went ahead. A snow storm was in progress at the time, however, and he failed to see the approaching inter urban. The motorman of the interurban saw the bus, but ii was standing still and he assumed that it was waiting for him to pass. So he did not slacken speed until it was too late. Uoth drivers were attending to duty. The accident, apparently, was simply one of those that inevitably happen occasionally at an unprotected grade crossing. They em phasize the fact that sooner or later, no matter ltow much it costs, we shall have to embark on a program for the eli mination of all grade crossings. In this day of heavy traf fic they are too great a menace.

Tho hand that con trols the purse strings also has a telling effect. 'I hose who argue that newspaper advertising doesn't pay because the average man is too busy to read the paicrs have little authority to back up his conten tion. Advertising experts recognise that they must appeal to women in their advertising "copy." Note that as you glance over the ada next time.
