At least a third of the pedestrians fatally injured in rural districts are struck while walking along the roadway, ac cording to figures of the National Safety council. And about two- thirds of these were walking with their backs to approaching traffic. In many places, sidewalks are being built parallel to the high ways to segregate motor and pe destrian traffic, but in places where they aren't yet built, the council has these four suggestions to offer: 1— Walk on the left side of the road. 2— At night, carry a light. 3— Wear light clothing or at least some article of ckrthing that's white, to make it easier for the motorist to see you. 4— Walk on the shoulder of the road instead of the pavement, where possible, to keep from forc ing cars into the path of oncoming, traffic.
