Some people will argue that drunken drivers cause the majority of wrecks. My argument differs greatly in this respect, and also to bad roads. I saw at least twenty wrecks on my trip, _and only one was caused by a drunk; !so I was told, I did not see this driver as he had just been carried into a house ; for first aid:; two were caused by blowâ€" cuts; and the rest were caused by cutâ€" ting in or crowding. Ssome are inclined to think that the | raising of the speed limit has something to do with the upward trend of acciâ€" dents this year. This is not so, for I found that motorists were driving much slower than other years. It is just the cadd numbskull that wants all the road. Myâ€"version of so many accidents is, the ease that a driver can secure a driver‘s license. All some of the testers think about, is the almighty dollar, for all I did was to drive along Spruce street to the Hollinger mine and back. My son drove around one block. . And they call this astest. If someone were to come in this town and demanded every driver to go up and down hills, park in a tight place, how to act in case of an emergency, I wonder how an excellent opportunity i he Aladdin Co. offers YOU 29¢ e C Phone 1332â€"J Fresh FILLETS ...

Railroad crossings take a big toll in lives every year. Here again it is only madness, for ninetyâ€"nine out of every hundred know the crossing is there, and they are familiar with the move« ments of the trains, and they still try to beat them. Most strangers look before they leap the metals. If something is not soon done, it won‘t be safe to walk, let alone drive. Yours Sincerely, Carr Dryver. many would fail the test? And that is just what is wantedâ€"someone to test drivers, instead of one who only thinks about the dollar; for nearly every town is as bad as this for people behind the wheel instead of pushing a wheelâ€"barâ€" row.

This accident happened because the driver was careless. He diedâ€"his face a grotesque caricature with his skull split open like a coconut, his chest a gaping hole where he had been stabbed by the jagged steering column. His wife was less fortunateâ€"she livâ€" ed. But every time she looks into a mirror she wishes she had died, too. Modern plastic surgery can perform miracles but it has its limitations. When she looks at herself in the mirâ€" ror with the eye that isn‘t glass she still shudders, even though the accident happened three long years ago. Their fiveâ€"yearâ€"old daughter lived, toco. But she doesn‘t realize it. Her skull was fractured and her brain inâ€" jured. It‘s much more difficult to reâ€" build a brain than a face.
