ROAD HOG PERSISTS
In spite of Traffic Regulations and
advice to motorists the speeder and
roadhog remain with us. Now and
then we see a speeder who is also a
roadhog. One day last week a Fort
Valley mother called her little son,
who was playing on the side of the
street, and made him sit on the door
step because of the danger from pass¬
ing cars.
About the time he was comfortably
seated on the step a car came tearing
around the corner, across the yard
and ran against the porch and steps
barely missing the little fellow who
had been called from the dangerous
street.
ago when he fell on the pavement
from his bicycle.
