delity and Casualty Company of
New York, one of the companies
of the America Fore Insurance
Group and announced by Frank
A. Christensen, vice president,
that only 25 percent of private
passenger automobile owners
have this protection. This is a
figure which is also generally a
greed on by the automobile de
partments of other capital stock
insurance companies which do
business all over the country.
Mr. Christensen, pointing out
some facts regarding those who
do and do not carry automobile
liability and property insurance
says:
“It seems that quite generally
the individual who has property
or a responsible position, is insur
ed.
“Many of those who do not own
property tend to the thought that
perhaps it is possible for them to
get by without insurance protec
tion, feeling that they are judg
ment proof. But this by no means
so for a judgment can be collect
ed from their income or held in
abeyance for years until they are
in a position to pay it.”
Within the last two years, auto
mobile insurance rates of all of
the capital stock insurance com
panies have been revised strong
ly downward in almost all parts
of the country. Added to this, in
almost every state the Safe Dri
ver Reward plan has been put
into effect by these companies,
whereby in addition to paying
considerably less premium than
heretofore, the assured also re
ceives a cash reward of 15 per
cent at the end of the policy year,
if during that time he has had no
accidents.
Recently the companies also an
nounced a SI,OOO liability and pro
perty damage policy.
To further facilitate the insur
ing of automobiles, Mr. Christen
sen calls attention to the fact that
this protection is all purchasable
on the plan of equal payments di
vided over a period of several
months.

MIND YOUR MIND
Division of Mental Hygiene.
By JAMES WATSON, M. D..
Raleigh, May 11 The requests
for suitable books and pamphlets
dealing with “Mental Health”
come fnam three main groups.
(1) Those who want some mental
hygiene information to help in
solving some problem or prob
lems in their children. (2) Those
who want to do some mental hy
giene work in their communities,
schools, clubs, etc. (3) Those who
are looking for help to solve their
own problems. Today I will try
to answer the first group.
I wonder if yiou are familiar
with the pamphlets published by
the Government’s Children’s Bur
eau? If not, write to the Super
intendent of Documents, Washing
ton, D. C. for a list of the publica
tions of the Children’s Bureau
which will be sent ylou free. In it
you will find listed pamphlets
dealing with almost every prob
lem arising in the raising of child-'
ren. These pamphlets cost 5c or
10c each. Parents have particular
ly praised the pamphlets entitled
“Are You Training Your Child to
be Happy?”, “The Child From
One to Six”, and “Guiding the
Aidrlescent”. and there are hund
reds of other good ones.
You should also get the list of
publications of the National Com
mittee for Mental Hygiene, 50
West 50th Street, New York City.
In it you will find listed many
useful pamphlets some of which
are free, I would like especially
to mention “Some Undersirable
Habits and Suggestions as to
Treatment” by Dr. Taft 15c. Many
parents have found this helpful.
Among books I would recom
mend “Everyday Problems of the
Everyday Child” by Dr. Douglas
A. Thom. This bdok is written
in simple style by an eminent
physician and covers every pro
blem likely to arise in the life of
a child. It costs $2.50 and is pub •
lished by the Appleton Century
Co. of New York but it is proba
bly in your town or school lib
rary.

Children Should
Be Taught Rules
Os Traffic Safety
Raleigh. May 10 The fact
that twenty-one children were
killed on North Carolina streets
and highways the first three
months (of this year is viewed by
Ronald Hocutt, Director of the
Highway Safety Division, as a
stem challenge to everyone inter
ested in safety, but particularly,
to North Carolina parents.
“Pending the fulfillment of our
hope of having safety taught in
eveTy school in North Carolina,
the responsibility for teaching our
children safety habits must lie
chiefly with their parents,” said
Hocutt.
The safety director pointed out
that the 21 traffic fatality victims
under 15 years of age included
nine who were crossing or play
ing in the street or roadway, one
skater who skated in front of a
car, one bicyclist whlo disregarded
a stop sign, and one child on a
sled.
“If parents expect their child,
ren to walk, play, skate and ride
bicycles in a safe manner, they
must take it upon themselves to
impress their children with the
importanloe of safe practices and
the dangers of wrong practics,”
Hocutt said.
“If yrour child rides a bicycle,
see that he or she learns safe cy
cling habits, preferably by join
ing a Bicycle Club, if there is
one in your community; if your
child owns skates, teach him not
to skate in the street; and, above
all, see that your child doesn’t
play in the street, that he learns

Warns People Os
Night Hazards 11
Raleigh Calling attention to
the fact that three persons were
killed in North Carolina last
month as a result cf failing to
take proper precautions when
changing tires on the highway at
night, Ronald Hocutt, Director of
the Highway Safety division,
gave out the following sugges
tions:
When compelled to make re
pairs or change a tire on the high
way at night, the first precaution
to observe,is pulling (completely
off the highway or as far as over
on the shoulder as possible.
Flares should be placed on the
highway some feet behind the car
and also in front of it, but if you
no don’t carry flares you should
by all means leave the dim lights
on your car burning.
If working on the side of the
car next to the highway, it is wise
to move around to the other side
when a car approaches.
“These are simple, commonsen
se precautions, and fatal acci
dents of this type will be mater
ially reduced if not entirely eli
minated when all motorists fol
low such precautions in making
repairs or changing tires on the
hghway at night,” Hocutt said.
to look before crossing the street
or road, and that he cultivates
safe pedestrian habits.
“It is better that your child
learn the lessons of safety through
teaching, not through experien
ce.”
