Oommcxl!tioi juQ TTrm -v s i n i m Iitei9iai9ie tai'Kfl At Grade Crossings He Who Hesitates Is Safe Self-preservation would seem to be nature's last law. For in the last five years. 9,101 cersons (almost twice the number killed at the Battle of Gettysburg) have sacrificed their lives at highway grade crossings in the United States through failure to stop, look and listen. Train operation is safe because railway employes are carefully trained. Except in a few states automobile drivers are turned loose without even an examination. Trains and street cars stop before crossing another rail road where there is no interlocking device. If it be neces sary for them, how much more necessary for the auto driv er! For most automobiles carry loved ones and friends of the driver. Yet, eight out of ten automobile drivers race across rail road tracks without stopping and looking in either direction. Many motorists disregard the watchman's stop signal. Run ning through and breaking crossing gates is a common oc currence. One-fifth of all train accidents involving auto mobiles are caused by the automobile running into the side of the train. t The railroads maintain warning signs and require engine men to whistle and ring the bell for every crossing. High ways are being relocated to eliminate crossings. But rail roads are powerless to prevent injury to occupants of auto mobiles who fail to exercise care for their own safety. It has been suggested that all grade crossings be removed. There are 250,000 in the United States and at $50,000 each it would cost $12,500,000,000 and take at least thirty years to remove them. This expense is about two-thirds of the value of all the railroads of the country, as tentative ly found by the Interstate Commerce Commission, and neither the railroads nor the municipalities have the money. The "Stop, Look and isten" rule can be followed now with out cost. It takes a train but a few seconds to pass over a crossing. Surely no one would sacrifice his life and his loved ones to save a few seconds. Lives of rail passengers are imperiled by grade crossing accidents. Recently several trains on eastern roads have been derailed by striking motor vehicles, and enginemen and passengers have been killed. Grade crossing accidents would absolutely cease if every automobile driver would stop, look and listen at every grade crossing. Won't you do it? Omaha, Nebraska, October 1, 1023. C. R.

GOODYEAn I UNION PACIFIC SYSTEM 1924 FORD IS NOW HERE The first of the new type Ford cars which recently arrived in this city are now on display at the show room of Latourell Auto Company, local Ford dealers. The higher radiator, now stan dard in all Ford types, has brot a general improvement through out the entire line and the new radiator apron blending with similar apron effects on the fend ers gives the front of the cars a highly finished appearance. The Touring Car shows a de cided improvement, having a more streamline effect It is low er in appearance, a feature add ing much to the attractiveness of the slanting windshield and one man top. The Ford Runabout is likewise much improved and looks more sturdy. The Coupe is entirely new in body design and construction. There is a more trim exterior ap pearance, more comfortable seat ing arrangement and greater luggage carrying capacity. From the dash is a graceful sweep in the cowl to the radiator. The doors are wide and heavily fram ed. A larger compartment at the rear gives increased room for luggage and the new type rear fender is more secure. Ventila tor in the cowl and a visor over the windshield add to the exter ior, appearance, effecting a high quality aspect. Interior arrangement is most . convenient and the upholstery is choice. The seat is deeply cush ioned and the cushions are divid ed, making it easy for filling the gasoline tank which is under the seat. A small recess shelf at the rear of the seat is handy for small parcels. The door windows are equipped with revolving type window regulators permitting any desired ventilation. Doors are provided with locks. The higher radiator has great ly enhanced the beauty of the Ford Four Door Sedan. This car, highly popular since its in troduction a year ago because of its low, graceful lines, now pre sents a more sturdy appearance. Another feature coming as the result of the change made in the front of the car, including larger cowl, radiator and hood, is that occupants of the front seat are afforded more space, thus insur ing added riding comfort. Many other little improve ments and refinements are no ticeable including revolving type window regulators for all door windows and a dome light for il luminating the interior. The new cars are now on dis play at the show rooms of Lat ourell Auto Company and there is one waiting for you. Latourell Auto Co.
