The law provides that drivers of all vehicles on approaching any, grade crossing of a main line railway track outside an incorporated town must stop not less than ten feet nor more ^han one hundred feet from the near est rail. A penalty of ten dollars for each violation is provided in the act. Advocates of this act pointed out that ita enforcement would greatly reduce the number of grade crossing accidents. By enacting this law the Virginia sol one have given legal effect to the admonitions which railways have for many years displayed on their crossing signs, urging drivers of vehicles to "Stop, Look, and Lis ten!"

Willoughby of the Ahoskie post office is cooperating in a nation-wide campaign of the Government to protect the American . people agaipst fake and unwise in i vestments and to bring hidden surplui i funds into circulation. ^he Government is warning people against financial transactions witl ' strangers and advising them to put ) their money in good securities, plac< i their funds in banks, or invest ii i Treasury-Certificates at the Post Of fice. Jt is difficult to convict swind lers who obtain money from unsus r pecting people hi this manner unti r some of the Federal laws have beei ? broken. I Department officials say they ar< amazed that people will pass by i bank or the post office which oife: . protection of funds and safe invest t ment to hand their money over t< t some smooth-talking swindler abou s whom they know nothing. Postmas ters have been called upon by th Department to use their influence ii i every way possible to prevent the ios . of millions of dollars each yea - through unscrupulous promoters am 3 swindlers. " Postmaster Willoughby says: " am sending letters to the patrons a . this office, even to those of limite* 1 means, calling their attention to at ? investment guaranteed both as t< 1 principal and interest by the Unite* States Government and which wil increase 26 per cent in five years f Through this postoffice it is pofesibli to purchase a $25 Treasury Savin] f Certificate for $20, a $100 Certiflcat< . for $80 and a $1,000 Certificate foi $800, representing an 'investmem yielding, at purchase price, 4 1-2 pei t cent interest, compounded semi-an , nually. If the purchaser wishes tc t cash his certificates before the end of ; five years, he can get his money bacli with intent figured at about 3 1-2 per cent, compounded semi-annually, t I am hoping the people of this com i munity will take advantage of this offer or put their money into a bank as a protection against possible loss." 0 Nature intended that you eat what you want.
