The Ford Cood Drivers League is your organization Its pur pose is to help make a nation of better driver. We think one of the best ways to accomplish-this is to start with boys who are now forming their driving habits. You are the logical ones to take the lead in this movement. If you will join in an agreement to learn expert driving, couple it with care, courtesy and common sense, and influence others to do the same, you will help save thousands of lives. You have the physical equipment, in eyesight, co-ordination and quickness of response, to become the best drivers on the j M 1 ......... road. In time you can raise driving standards to a higher level than this country has ever seen The present bad accident rec ord among young drivers undoubtedly is due to thoughtlessness and carelessness. We believe your influence and example, at members of the League, can create among all boys a greater sense of the responsibility that goes with driving. Through the Ford Cood Drivers League, with your help, we hope to carry out an interesting and useful program Which will supplement the fine work being done by all other s&LccjC CZl X good-driving movements.
