Such tragedies may occur once in a year or two. But the highway and street toll of young innocents produces a casualty list every day, year after year. There is much we can do about it for WE are responsible. In one year 4,300 young lives are snuffed out, over 200,000 injured and maimed for life. Three out of every four of these lives sacrificed to carelessness are from 5 to 14 years old. Too young to die. These facts are well to remember right now because school starts to morrow. Stop and think a moment if a school-bound child dashed suddenly (from out of nowhere) in front of your car . . could you STOP IN TIME to prevent injury . . perhaps save a life? YES, if you make it a p6int to drive slowly and cautiously near schools . . ever alert to the unpredictable comings and goings of the chil dren. What's a minute saved against a child's life lost? YES, if you keep your car (espe cially your brakes) always in tip top shape . . . always under full control . . . always ready to respond to your will on the split-second. Be a RESPONSIBLE citizen. Drive as if every child were your own. Gfooyl a P6tcetb Pakti Medford schools start tomorrow ... Monday. . . Slow down . . Lives are in your hands!
