Students can borrow as much as

limits and they sometimes exceed
$300 and $75.

HELP!
This boy£
in danger
Last year 120,000 school-age children
were injured or killed in traffic accidents.
Many of these accidents could have been
prevented if the drivers had learned to regard
all youngsters as human caution signs.
Remember this whenever you drive near a
school or playground. Slow down so you
.can stop in an instant. You never know
when a child may decide to dash out from
between parked cars.
Be careful—the child you save may be your own!
