Of the 21 pedestrians killed. 13. or 62 percent were struck in accidents occuring in c i t i e s, while seven were killed in rural accidents. ‘These figures are evidence that pedestrian safety is a rural problem, as well as an urban one.*’ Secretary Farrell said. The rural pedestrian accidents are the result, in most cases, of failure on the part of the person on foot to exercise proper care when crossing highways. Sixty percent of the pedestrian fatal ities so far involved unsafe ac tions on the part of the pedes- CO O L O U M H Q T M f C N T m t m o c ts s r Only "Rubber Welding" g iv e, you the advantage of le u heat and no distortion on the side- wall of your tire » L.

In many cases pedestrians will be w a l k i n g short distances along country roads.

H. A. Sr. — Parrelt, H. A. Jr. write up of what he regarded as the ten most successful people of our community and asked me what I thought of the list. “Your list appears to be fairly well chosen,” I said, “except that while you have a number of business men, among them a banker, a mer chant, a county office holder and others worthy of some recogrstion for what they have done in the community, you have left out two of the most successful persons in my opinion, that we have in the community. You, like others, interpret success as the ability to gain recognition and accumulate money. This is not my definition of suc cess. It represents hut one type of success. The banker you have listed inherited his money and therefore deserves I no credit for its accumulation. The man who was elected to the county office was elected purely because of certain cir cumstances over which he had no control and to which he contributed nothing beyond the fact that he happened to be running on his party’s ticket at ttat time. I would include in place of the banker, widow Cartwright who raised and educated, by her own un aided efforts, a family of five, after her husband died. I would also include the cobbler down the street who put four children through college by working early and late over his shoemaker’s last. These, to me, should be included in any list of the successful peo ple of the community. Against odds they have made a real contribution to the commun ity. Without any of the breaks as they say, they have heared and educated nine fine boys and girls that are a credit to the town. They are the real community builders. Petite.
