Officials of the Federation, which represents more than 200 fire, auto- mobile and casualty insurance com- panies, said children should be school- ed in basic safety rules from the ear- liest age--preferably through examp- les set by parents." Insurance experts recommended the following pedestrian safety rules for children: - 1. Always look to right and left be- fore crossing street, or leaving buses and street cars. 2. Cross streets only at intersec- tions, when traffic lights are green. 8. Always walk facing oncoming traffic where there are not sidewalks. At night, carry an easily seen white object or a flashlight. : 4, Never jump off or on moving ve- hicles. Don't play behind parked cars or trucks. 6. Be particularly careful in cross- ing wet or slippery streets--cars re- quire greater stopping distance. 6. Watch carefully for cars, turn- ing corners. 7. Never chase a ball on to the street. 8. When in doubt, ask an adult to take you across the street. s |Ground Observer News NEW SUPERVISOR FOR BOWMANVILLE-CAESAREA Mr. Clare Keevil, Claremont, has been appointed as Acting Regional the Bowmanville- dian.
