THE MORNING OREGONIAX, FRIDAY, JULY 21, 1922 IS El BOY'S DEATH ODER WHEEL OF SPRIXKLER REASOX. Superintendent of Street Bureau Says Children Should Know Danger of Vehicles. The tragic death of Glenn MeCul loch, 5 years old, who was crushed under a heavy street sprinkling cart, prompted Alex Donaldson, su perintendent of the street-cleaning bureau, to issue a warning to par ents concerning children following these veh'cles. "Parents should impress upon their children the danger of darting in front of or following in the rear or tne sprinKiers, he said. "Every day the drivers of these carts and employes in the department stop to warn children about this daneer. Hardly a day goes by but that I anve children from the carts. "The children frequently run in front of the carts in order to wet their bare legs and feet, and should one of these children slip and fall it would be almost impossible to bring the sprinkler to a. stop on -the wet pavements." Mr. Donaldson said that E. 3. Ben nett, who drove the cart that crushed the McCulloch boy, had left his vehicle at least twice to warn the children not to foHow in the rear of the machine. Before he began to back the sprinkler he looked on both sides and saw none of the chil oren. He backed slowly and when he heard a woman scream he stopped, but It was too late; the child had been crushed. "Parents of children should make it their business to impress this con stant danger upon their children." RABID DOGS BITE SIX MEN Victims ofIydrophoblc Canines Take Pasteur Treatment.
