You May Lose" is the warning given motorists by a poster being distributed by the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad as a part of the nation-wide effort of the railroads te reduce accidents at railroad cross ings. Showing a train thundering by crossing while a pigmy-like auto mobile waits in safety for it to pass, the poster depicts vividly the great size of the train and the high speed at which it travels and leaves to the Imagination of the motorist the pic ture of what would happen should his car be struck by it The poster was selected by the American Rail way Association from several thous and designs submitted as a result of a' contest in which $500. was offered for the best poster and $100. for the best slogan. In addition to securing wide dis tribution of the poster the Safety Committees of the Atlantic Coast Line are Intensifying their efforts to persuade motorists to "Cross Cross ings Cautiously."

The tobacco and cotton co-ops of Eastern North Carolina have been es pecially benefitted by the new cooper ative form of credit and have taken out loana amounting to more than $600,000, which has enabled them to pay cash prices for fertilizer and to hire cash labor for preparing tbe cotton add tobacco crops of 1924 at many places, according to President Boushall.
