Con sidering the much greater number of city pedestrians, the danger in each individual case is obviously higher in the country, the safety official pointed out. .1 Most dangerous action of the rural pedestrian is crossing a high way. Failure to judge the speed of approaching cars accurately is one of the principal reasons fov * —I these fatalities. For each yard a pedestrian walks, a car travelling 50 miles per hour will go 15 yards, Newbry said. City dwellers usually do not have to cope with such high speeds.

YOUR WHOLE LIFE With earlier hours of darkness signalling approach of winter, mo torists were reminded today by Secretary of State T. Newbry to put their vehicles in readiness for the dangerous weather months. “All of us who drive are noticing ; the heavier demands being made on our electrical equipment,” he point ed out. “We should have our lights, battery and heater inspected now to be sure they’re in good condition for winter driving.” State accident records, he said, Those whom we elect in this election may well decide most of the vital issues which will affect you directly—peace or war, prosperity or de pression, moderate prices or high ones, progress or stagnation. These are the reasons why it is more important than ever before that we VOTE FOR THE BEST MAN in every office, large or small. Think only “Is this man, is this woman, the candidate best suited by personal background, ability and record in public and private life for this particular office?” Do this honestly and we are sure that you, too, will vote Republican. Remember, vote for the best man, may the best man win!
