If you have saved, have the money when you
need it, then you can tak? advantage of oppor

HAREXTAL RESPONSIBILITY
Parents are at fault In more than
ninety percent of the accidents In
which children are killed or Injured
by automobiles, the coroner of a mid
west city has discovered. In the
remaining ten percent, motorists were
speeding or driving carelessly.
This same average may not prevail
in all parts of the country, but* it is
probably about representative of the
average city or town.
No one condones reckless c-r caro
less driving of automobiles, but there
are accidents which the driver can
not avoid and which are due entirely
to the Irresponsibility of children.
Death or injuries that may make
them life-long cripples should ever
be held up before children as the
danger that lurks in the street, in the
form of automobiles, that may crush
their little bodies an<] break their
bones.
They cannot be warned too fre
quently of this menace. They should
be taught never to cross a street
without first looking both ways. They
can not be too cautious. The respon
sibility is clearly upon the shoulders
lof parents.

SCHOOL FIRES
Fatalities in school building fires
for the most part attract only local
attention, but a chance flame or
spark that might be the means of
wiping out many youthful lives, is
an ever presence menace that should
be guarded against by school author
ities.
As the season is here for the fir
ing of furnaces and stoves in school
buildings. It behooves those who have
tkia work in charge to be ever on the
alert for fire.
'Though fire-proof construction of
school buildings is followed now,
there are still many virtual fire traps
ltt use. And although old buldings
are being replaced by more modern
ones, the average for the United
Slates is five school fires every day
it the year. -?
.Fire drills are almost universally
practiced in the pubjlc schools, but
they must be regarded as supplemen
tary precautions, not primary ones;
tbey merely reduce the consequences
of (Ire that never sholdd take place.
' The financial loss and Interruption
of school work are of importance,
but the moat serious feature Is the
loss of life among children.
Permitting a fire hazard to exist
in a school building Is little short of,
criminal. /

importance of using lime on the farm,

Your Boy and
His Clothes
Y ou know as well as we do, what a problem it is to get
Clothes that will withstand the hard wear of a boy's
everyday life. But in our line of Clothes we believe we
have come close to solving the problem. They are
strongly tailored from sturdy, close-woven fabrics, and
such a combination should give a good measure of serv
ice.
We have a full line of furnishings with for men and
women also.
