B. H. ANDREW & SON PERRY, GA. your own protection The pteril of the road crossing has become a national problem with the multiplication oi automobiles. The Southern Railway System has eliminated 584 grade crossings, and is eliminating more every year, but 7,000 remain to be separated on this system •lone. The total cost to complete the work is a stupendous sum—probably half as much aa the coat to build the railroads. Even if the money were available, and the public willing to pay the in creased freight and passenger rates necessary to provide a fair return on jfe, many years would be required to in some other way. Trains cannot stop. at every crossing if they are to be run at the sustained speed expected by this public and required to carry the com merce of the country. The train crosses a highway about every mile. The mo torist encounters a railroad only oc casionally. It is necessary, therefore, for the automobile driver to atop l in order to avoid risk. No one who did this wai ever .killed. In North Carolina; where the law now requires such a atop, the number of road crossing accidents on, our lines has been reduced one-hall Grade crossing accidents can be pre vented if you will approach the zone of danger determined to exercise caution For Your Qwa Protection.

The trail, still fresh, was followed for miles and gave the officers confidence that the men had resorted to running rather than to a train dash.
