"Seven seconds is hardly a consider able period of time,*' said Clancy, “but its apparent importance to some auto- mobilists ,!s causing many crossing accidents each year. It is different for the driver of a fast-moving auto mobile to cause the relative speed of his car and a fast train converging at thex. same point different directions. It is not hard to estimate what the result will be if both arrive at the same time.” There should be only one rule for motorists to follow: Stop and let the train go by I Seven-seconds are not much in the span of life and Idle them may be to save fifty years.
