The signs are in keeping with the trend toward use of moresym bols in traffic control and to conform with the.international use of sym bois. They provide safe messages readiiy un- derstood on sight and they also eliminate the need for bilingual iegends. The new ÎNO STOP- PING sign wili compiete thé symbolization of signs in the parking control ser- îes, initiaiiy introduced 18 months ago. It wiii depict a black oc- tagonai blank "STOP" sign with a red interdictory stroke through it. Biackar- rows wiil indicate the di- rection and extent of the No Stopping zone. If the sign restricts stopping dur- ing particular hours or days oniy, this informa- tion wiii appear as part of the symbol. The new YIELD right of way sign wili be the same shape as it is now-an equilaterai trian'r- gie. However, it wiii be white with a red border in- stead of yeliow. The coi- our red signifies a regula- tion whereby a person may be charged under the Highway Traffic Act whiie yeiiow designates only a warning such as "winding road ahead". Since failing to yieid the right of way constitutes an infraction against the Highway Traf- f ic Act, the colou r red was adopted. Until January 1, 1981,> the word "yieid" wiii ap- pear independently beiow the symbol sign. After that date, oniy the sym bol wiii appear. Municipalities wiii be expected to replace ai ex- isting YIELD right of way signs by January 1, 1979, and ail existing NO STOP- PINO signs by January 1, 1982. onates $75 to hospital The Hospital for Sîck ildren in Toronto received lonation of $75 frorn the ff and students of Kathleen we School last week, as a ut of the school's annual ristmas assembly.
