RALRIOH.?After a steady threeear
decline, railroad crossing acclants
are threatening to kill a reo
rd number of persons in North Car
Una during 1M0. acoording to Roaid
Hocutt, Director of the Highay
Safety Division.
Six crossing fatalities in January
nd five in February combined ta
take a two-months total of more
tan half the number of fatal accl
onts at railroad crossings,^ the
tate during the entire twelve monItls
of 1939. There were 19 cross
iK fatalities in North .Carolina last
ear. compared with 22 in 1938, 23
it 1937 and 30 in 1936.
"Just as we were congratulating
urselves on the fact that railroad
tossing accidents were on the d* frtre?
irr?.Vst A dtoJUCtAWivw-nt/A j,x *\ i
hat motorists in this State have
itarted out the new year with a toal
of eleven crossing fatalities in
wo months'," Hocutt said. "This
vpe is distressing, especially when
ve consider how easily this type
>f accident might be avoided. Every
-ailroad crossing -is either guarded
tr marked, and in 99 cases out of a
100 the motorist who runs into the
tide of a train or into the path of
me is guilty of Inattention and neglgence,
"With the exception of 'I love
>ou' the best known three-word utterance
In the English language is
Stop! Look! Listen!.' yet only a
ntnute fraction of the drivers who
see these three words on a sign
near a railroad crossing pay the
slightest* attention to thein.

THE TRAIL
As I stand on the streets at eventide
And watch the crowds go by.
The rich and the ?k>or, the large and
the small,
1 am prone to wonder why?
To try and guess what It's all about,
And what they are gotng to do
When they get to the end of the
trail they're on?
But perhaps they are wondering
too.
Some may never reach the goal
They are trying so hard to find;
It may be, perchance, they are on
the wrong road.
The one they had In mind
When they started along on the
Journey of life.
On the road that we all are on;
The road to be traveled by those
yet to come;
The trail of those who are gone.
The manner in which we walk may
count;
The things that we leave behind
May have something to do. when j
we get to the end.
With what we. there, will find. |
So, while we're upon the journey of
life
Why not walk upright, and be
Able to see at the end of the trail
