Child Victims of Automobile*.
A large percentage of the many automo
bile accidents consist of cases in which chil
dren are run over. It happens frequently
that a .child will suddenly dart into the
street in front of a motor car. This is apt
to happen when a ball is thrown or hit into
the highway, but often some vagrant im
pulse of the child mind leads a little follow
to make a bee line across the thoroughfare
in pursuit of some objective known only to
him.
The fact that the little one was clearly
the cause of his own misfortune, does not
make the outcome any easier for the par
ents. And so great numbers of homes are

The success of the camps'depends largely
upon the attitude of employers. If they as
a rule refuse to allow employes to absent
themselves to take this training, it will be
hard to get the desired enlistments. But if
they are generous and patriotic about it,
many thousands of fellows would like to
enter these camps. It will be splendidly mt ' n '

The annual audit of The Banner’s circulation,
by the bureau experts, usually occupies about a week.
During that time the auditor, has access to every fact

Every fact about newspaper circulation must J
be known to the bureau of circulations’ auditor, and 1
every fact must agree with every other fact before
the proof is accepted.
When the proof is fnade, a classified report is
made to all members showing exactly what the cir

The reports which the publisher himself makes
to the bureau twice a year can then he compared
with the proofs which the bureau audit discloses at
least once a year.
The audited proofs of circulation, in all particu

and has been regularly examined and reported
